Iirc it was Penalty Rec., who were distributed by Tommy Boy. Skull was in the NORE video for a second or so. Skull and Mystikal were the only NL soldiers in 95-01 whose albums weren't released on Priority Rec.

No Limit Records Stories
- Thread starter 1-8-7-Skillz
- Start date
Snoop was officially signed around April (when the IGTHU OST came out), the C/Bleed/Sons Of Funk albums came out before that
Yeah only NL album without P feature in 98 was Full Blooded's. Neither was Fiend (who also wasn't featured on Sons Of Funk's one) or Silkk (who wasn't on Bleed's one)

Not really but the last couple years I have been wondering if this was a diss to NL
This was on Missy's second album Ft. Juvenile & BG with Birdman talking in the beginning
I had this album when it came out when I was young and never put the pieces together but I always fukked with the song.
TRU's True To Da Game had a song called "FEDZ" which a blatant rip off of "If Your'e Girl Only Knew" which was produced by Timbaland. I heard FEDZ years after it was released. Same beat and melody but just a cheaper sounding version.
In the song Missy was talking about biting and switching up beats so nobody would duplicate her. The album was released in the summer of 99 around the time Cash Money started taking over and the rumors of them having beef with one another. NL was becoming an after thought around this time. Listen to the lyrics. Especially the chorus.
@OHSNAP! Do you know anything about this?

Missy wasn't dissing No Limit. They cleared the sample for "If Your Girl Only Knew". Missy was dissing producers who were biting Timbaland's drum programming. They were fans of No Limit. Master P got a shout out on the remix of "Up Jumps Da Boogie" which featured Missy.

Get interviews from most of the nikkas that was there at that point. Whenever it be speaking about their careers on the label, working with them or their impact. Interview: P, Silk, C from jail, Mac from jail, Sons of Funk, Mia X, Mystikal, Mo B.dikk, Bun B(Since he was doing collabs), Scarface, Prince J, Tony Draper, 8Ball and MJG, JT The Bigga Figga, Yukmouth(for the Unbias view), Young Bleed, Soulja Slim's fam or homeboys, B.G., Boosie, Webbie, Jermaine Dupri, Mack 10(Since he was in Im Bout it) Whats left of the RBL Posse and many others. It would be very very interesting! Do it in a format that they did with the Death Row Documentary

I been enjoying the stories and the behind scenes stuff on No Limit in this thread. There's alot of things I didnt know about. Master P The Ice Cream Man was the first no limit album I listened to with my cousin who is 6 years older...I was young as shyt thinking that No Limit was the greatest thing ever. My cousin got sent home from school one day because he had on a Master P shirt lol. I just remember how crazy they were putting out music. This was long before the era were in now where rappers drop 2-3 projects in one year. They treated the rap game like the crack game.
Master P changed the game and was revolutionary with his business sense turning No Limit into a powerhouse and I feel like their run could had went on much longer if things were different.

All record company execs or CEOs or label heads are ruthless, greedy and cutthroat businessmen. That's how capitalism works. The rich eat the poor. The powerful kill the lowlives. Hiphop caters to that and presents/sells materialism (cars, houses, diamonds) and self-destruction methods (drugs, expensive lifestyle, greed, zero empathy) to the youth and to the masses. That way the small cats keep being small, can be kept down
The Williams bros. might be smart businessmen, but they walked over tons of carcasses to get where they are now. Same with Puffy, J Prince, P etc, everyone with different stories. Look what happened to G-Dep, Big Mike, Mac or BG....they alive and broken down thx to the music biz and their head honchos
That's how the world we live in works unfortunately
I didn't make that connection when I heard that Missy cut. There were prolly more Timbaland/Missy biters tho. Like someone else already posted, they were credited on the Fedz song like they should've
Most of Bleed's album was mastered and produced by C-Loc's crew. Only a few cuts had BBTP production and mixing/mastering, the ones where the NL soldiers were featured iirc
This was an one album deal I think, P prolly made a handshake deal with Loc and Bleed to put them out there, everyone gained alot from this deal, well done. Loc had some great rappers under his wings like Maxminelli and Boo, they would've done well enough on NL, but NL roster was bloated in 98/99 anyway
