I happened to come across the segment on this (don't usually listen to any podcasts but this clip came into my zone) and that's not really what he said at all. He was saying Cash Money had the bigger, universal hits white people would recognize, but No Limit had non-hits that a very specific region regard as anthems, which is why on paper you would assume a Cash Money win, but those regional songs are raw and hit harder.

I understood what he was saying about Cash Money. I think a lot of that is recency bias and also other factors. Wayne's been a national name in rap for 20 years and BDAU is still a party record. Every old attention seeking broad still stretches before the song like they about to do something and it's

My family is from CenLA so I'm familiar with both of them. It felt like by the time Cash Money was starting to rise musically, P was putting his energy into other ventures. Also, this is an age thing too. A nikka in his late 40s from MD think might think he's wrong, but I'm in my late 30s and I'm

Man, I met a rural Canadian (Western Canadian) in like the early 2010’s who one of his top 5 rappers was Mr. Serv-On.

I was blown away. Knew his entire discography. Was talking about album filler like it Nas or Jay. Giving me what-if’s that could have advanced his career.

Dude was drunk as hell but you ain’t just saying that shyt without some type of conviction.

Man…Serve On was garbage, yet had arguably a top-5 No Limit song ever…



If this was played during the Verzuz

Exactly

Half the songs Nolimit played at the verzuz weren’t even singles, and had no music videos. However, they were songs that were organically hot in the streets.

Let’s take it further than that. I think it’s fair to say that No Limits transitioned into mainstream when Master P released Ghetto D, right?

You had multiple songs performed that were pre Ghetto D.

The funny thing about this is that the people were just wrong. The problem with Cashmoney is their hits are not their best shyt, while a lot of Nolimit street anthems happen to be some of their best shyt and were originally chosen by the streets.

His first album was okay. Head & Shoulders is another Nolimit hood classic.


He became garbage when he started rapping fast

An "easy" Super Bowl path by going on the road and beating the #1 seed with an elite defense? The "new Josh Allen" when he literally already has a Super Bowl? Did you listen to the clip at all?

It ain't like he playing the 1994 49ers, 1992 Cowboys, 2013 Seahawks or some all time dominant team

Plus he got a really good squad, a future HOF coach, future HOF WR, a top 3 WR in the league. He needs to get this one done

It's not about the Seattle defense it's about the QB's left in the pool.

Sam Darnold was a bust.

Stidham is a backup.

Maye is in his 2nd year.

If he loses to these QB's it's a bad look. There's no Mahomes, Lamar, Burrow, Allen, Hurts, or even Love. He has to get it done. This is the easiest path to a ring a veteran can have. No one would be surprised if Darnold has a 4 INT meltdown.

Apparently there are easy Super Bowls now, thecolidotcom

It's not a Pro Bowl QB skills competition
