Ayo.... How Did No Limit Sell So Many Records?

[TheRtist]

This song is more harder than Mase Feel so good and this is a R&B singer




IN THE 90s

No Limit fans were looking for "hard" songs such as this from No Limit artists, this what made nikkas go and cop their albums

This came out in September 97 and the shyt went hard all the way to the New Years, t

I heard this song a "single" more times than Jay's WHOLE album in the Fall of 97 when I was in ATL




This is a "soft" song

mannnnn Ps verse on How You Do Dat was straight Chuuuuuuurchhhhhh

P KILLED THAT SONG

Mystikal was popular, but most popular is stretch.

Jay Z also teased retirement with that album, but its neither here or there. He definitely wasn't the man with that album, but to saybit got no play is false.

None of those were forced. He had two singles from that album that were pretty popular. Then there was "Lost Souls" and "Rearview", which were also popular.

1. people's champ.
2. i never said volume 1 got no play. it was never "a thing" like you were saying tho.
3. posthumous pac singles got crazy airplay but were never near the top on any fan-request countdowns.

E
Just say you don't know what the fukk you're talking about and KIM.

nikka says "You're too deep into Hip-Hop", so I show him that I'm not "too deep into Hip-Hop" and he just pulls the whole "I'm not reading all that shyt because I got my skirt pulled up" excuse.

and now your pride is hurt so youre talking out-of-pocket in a manner that you would never do in real life.

get away from me geek. you dont get it, and it aint meant for you to understand.

"cypress hill has more in common with arrested development" LOL youre a dikkhead.

I remember them being near the top here. Even though the Jon B joint wasn't a Pac single technically. That one was pretty big. "I Wonder If Heaven Got A Ghetto" was too.

 

[OHSNAP!]

This may be the only tru "soft" song they put out when they were rolling and I think rolled the dice on that one being the single

Follow Me Now, nah, I would disagree with that one

Somebody Like Me, again Silk took a chance with that one... I'll agree to say that it was a "soft" single by No Limit

Do you think "Moving On" is a soft song?

That was Mya's cut, right? Usual R&B song for the masses and prolly for young teens demo. Silkk was NL's heartthrob, dude was OVER with the females. All Miller boys were. They were swimming in p*ssyjuice. Mia X even said in an interview she talked to some of the NL rats having more self-respect instead of literal dikkriding/golddigging

 

[JustCKing]

Speaking of "Movin On". Why on Earth did the put the version without Silkk on the album? I went to download this song off Apple music some months back and the album version has no Silkk verse and the music is slightly different. The version with Silkk is superior. Yeah, he gets flack for his flow, but that song ain't the same without his verse.

Jay didn't really emerge until Vol 2. of corse a hit from no limit got more play in the south than some brooklyn rapper with out a hit record. Master P was at his peak and jay had his and nobody thought jay would become a superstar.

It wasn't Master P that Jay was being compared to. It was Mystikal and even conceding Mystikal was bigger here, the argument was that Jay got no play in The South and that Unpredictable was all that was heard or played in The South November 1997 through 1998.

Okay and? Jay Z was barely getting played in New York. Reasonable doubt was an underground release and vol 1 was shytted on and people said he was finished when it dropped.

the comes vol 2 and well you know the rest

I'm not sure.

Good question

Yea, that was Mya's single...

Breh, you continue to move goal posts. LL Cool J was going platinum and double platinum most of his career. He didn't sell this enormous amount of records and then taper off. That wasn't the point of my post anyway. You said artists in the 90's couldn't be hard on one album and turn around and make soft the next. Mama Said Knock You Out and Mr. Smith was LL doing exactly that especially with the singles.



Well, Do or Die went gold TWICE with one video on each album they released in the 90's.



See my post about LL



Breh, he went platinum. DEAL WITH IT.



It doesn't matter what he was labeled. People looked at Silkk The Shocker in the same light.




Again, Silkk was that for No Limit.



"That Girl" is straight outta LL Cool J playback. Its a soft song by your definition.

Breh, UGK is one of my favorite groups,, buta


Did you see the video for "I Wonder If Heaven Got A Ghetto"? Do you not hear him talking about the riots and burning down cities in this song?



Again, you're claiming one song is soft, but when challenged on it you're moving goal posts as if it doesn't also apply to the other song. BE CONSISTENT.



Breh, The South was on Jay's music BEFORE "Big Pimpin". I never said Jay Z was a major artist here. Still, The South was on Jay before "Big Pimpin". When "Money Ain't A Thang" dropped in 1998, that was when he began to be somebody in The South. Before that, he just had joints. I mean, he was on the I Got The Hook Up soundtrack, "Ha" remix, and Silkk's "You Know What We Bout" before "Big Pimpin" was even conceived.

Jay being on the Ha Remix, You can't find 10 people who champion that song, the nikkas in the south destroyed that song... The song was Ass

I'm speaking about Fall 97 on back, Jay was not on nobodies radar in the South, He that song in 98, and it pretty much was a Southern feel, which is why the South starting moving towards that single, plus he had JD on it.

He do that song by himself, and shoot the video anywhere in the South, He doesn't get the attention from the South.

Eat a dikk, clown.

Cypress Hill & Arrested Development were some of the only rap groups that get played on Alternative rock stations & performed at Woodstock type festivals for "alternative" audiences.

That was the point, but you're too dumb to see it.

Your posts here show that you just don't know shyt about Hip-Hop, G.

 

[Homeboy Runny-Ray]

nobody thought jay would become a superstar.

nah

jay was expected to become a superstar with the volume one album.

but he chased the crossover too hard and dropped a half-dud.

and he still went platinum. you cant go platinum off of just the east coast. bootlegging is way too heavy on the east.

Cypress Hill & Arrested Development were some of the only rap groups that get played on Alternative rock stations & performed at Woodstock type festivals for "alternative" audiences.

you still dont get it.

this simply just aint your lane. stick to your strengths.

and stop trying to talk tough behind a computer screen. this chit aint even that serious. the way youre acting in here, it explains why this chit sounds so foreign to you. LOL. youre not social like that. not around black folks at least.

now go ahead and bang on your keyboard, mad because i sized you up again.
