Lets revisit No Limit's historic 1998

[360dagod]

You think P's strategy can be duplicated today? (but tweaked a little of course)

To he honest, its already being done...
Look at all these trap rappers who sound the same..the labels push them out there,get their bread and keep it pushing to the next one...artist development is gone...

Its pretty much make a trap record, sell some singles and when your done,we move on..

And its not even east coast people who are saying this...

Mannie fresh and scarface have pointed this out and they are from the south

I revisited the Young Bleed album last week and have been bumping it ever since













I might have to rearrange this list of mine

This album is like $6 on amazon. I can't afford not to cop it

Currently listening to that "Gambino Family" album, im at track #5 now and so far this is dope

Curren$y is doing it as a solo artist.

He was on No Limit too

 

[Flywin Lannister]

a lot of them shyts was doo, but you could put together a great best of cd

You clearly never gave No Limit a shot. This run was incredible and a lot of fire is on these albums.

Didn't care much for that album but "Im A Baller" was/is a fukking anthem around my way..C destroyed that bytch..

"I aint no muthafukkin stuntin ass nikka ima BALLER
Get a bytch number & DONT CALL HER!"

"Desperado" was hard as fukk too..

To each his own, one of the more overlooked NL albums for sure, had tons of hot beats at the very least

I don't know how true it is, but I read somewhere that Mac's Shell Shocked was recorded AFTER World War III, and P ended up releasing Shell Shocked first. There might be some truth to it because "Lockdown" appears on the I'm Bout It soundtrack with the same verses as "Lockdown" remix on WWIII. It just has a different beat. There's also Mac's verse from Fiend's "There's One In Every Family" and a verse from "Bloody" from WWIII being near identical as well. Then there's the song from Da Crime Family featuring Mac that has a verse also identical to one on WWIII.

I owned 20 of them albums.. can't believe i didn't buy young bleeds album

I owed a few of them, No Limit was running things left and right back them. I bought Young Bleed when it dropped, that all you heard around the hood. My copy I had was gone after a few years, recently found a fresh one in a music trade store, had to pay quite a bit for it cause it was out of print. That classic stuff is worth it

Thread should be stickied and studied.

Somewhat true I guess, Mac told this in an interview in 1999 (I can look for the link if u want), but We Deadly (aimed at PT & CMR) was 100% done in 1999. Pretty sure a few others as well (War Party, Paradise)

 

[Stick Up Kid]

People up north clowned No Limit in 1998

We was listening to DMX, Big Pun, Wu, Hov, Nas in 98’

Yeah some songs sound brand new, but it wouldn't surprise me if the majority of WWIII was his debut. His Psychoward crew is on there and it seems like some of the producers were producers Mac was working with prior to them coming to No Limit.

HKL, Firm, most Wu stuff sucked a dikk in 97/98. So yeah...
