Silkk The Shocker On No Limit Records, Working With JAY Z, Cash Money & More | Drink Champs

[Alvin]

1, 2, 3 you know Silkk a G
I know this dope game like I know my ABC’s

​

Silk was snapping on the shocker

History is the ultimate judge. Who cares about Silk's music today?

Silkk has 250,000 monthly listeners on Spotify. DMX has 8.5 million.
Master P has 680,000.

 

[Alvin]

Honestly tho most listeners dont care about Silkk, assumingly. P? Yeah. Even C. But Silkk? He wasnt even a star like that
or had an interesting story like his brothers had so theres only so much they can talk about.

Lmao! You know how many women loved silkk?

 

[Alvin]

Funny thing about Silkk is that, narrative wise, he was SUPPOSED to be the star…like P as the hustler that started the label but wasn’t really a rapper like that (and planned on “retiring”’as an artist)…C-Murder was the brother that couldn’t leave the streets alone and was always fukking up…and Silkk was kinda the one they could market, had placements on rnb records and all that…and in a perfect world he would’ve carried No Limit on his back like Wayne need Cash Money and emerge as a superstar…I see what P was thinking, Silkk just didn’t have the talent or the charisma

This makes a lot of sense, especially on ice cream man album and ghetto D @NO-BadAzz @JustCKing @You know damn well @Wacky D @OHSNAP! @Homeboy Runny-Ray @No Hook

Silkkk was the down south Mase in them years

It was because of that song with Destiny's Child I eventually found my way to the great SOS Band so im thankful

Big facts

 

[iceberg_is_on_fire]

That south push was strong


I still liked some of the songs he was FEATURED on but never his solo shyt… just no

His song with snoop on charge it to the game, to me is a perfect song. The Shocker is a classic. For a lot of no limit music, you do have to lock yourself in a time capsule because the music is dated. However, there are tracks, some that silkk has made, that do stand the test of time.

No Limit had better rappers than they get credit for. Would go toe to toe with any label and win.

@New Jeruzalem Journalist
This is the quote that started the whole back and forth. @Goldz-n-hoez claimed that No Limit could go toe to toe with any label based on them having “better rappers”, which is ridiculous because, Wu Tang.

 

[Pop123]

This joint and "Must be the money" by Primetime...real egotistical fly shyt, you just feel clean playin this shyt.

Yeah, I know. And then cats started arguing with me, as if it should even be up to debate that No Limit wasn't even in the same galaxy as the best labels at the time. If the best labels were the NFL, No Limit's roster was pee-wee league badminton.

But then I thought maybe I misconstrued their point. If toe to toe to them meant record sales, then it's a moot point. I don't give a shyt about record sales, so we'd be arguing apples and oranges.

Then homie just went full retard and lost me, hence the back and forth.

And please, Wu-Tang? No Limit's best talent and albums couldn't even fukk with Loud Records west coast acts. Name one No Limit album better than Likwidation or either of Xzbit's first 2 albums. It's pure blasphemy to even put the Clan or The Mobb in this conversation.

Shyt, I'd take the X-Men/X-ecutioner's album over most of their catalogue. And they don't even rap.

 

[ultimatemike]

what the fukk is Jack Thriller doing there.. doesn't he work for Thisis50.. does that even exist anymore?

smh shut the fukk up for real nikka

 

[NO-BadAzz]

Nobody is bumping that shyt Breh


Breh really think Brehs were bumping that shyt in real time

 

[oO J Smooth Oo]

cant sit through an episode of drink champs when nore interrupts the whole interview. cringe

 

[Flywin Lannister]

Oh shyt. I gotta peep this. I was all about that No Limi shyt back in the day. TRU nikkas, hustlas & soldiers.

Bingo

FOH, No Limit had spitters. Yeah P, Silkk and a few others usually weren't that good and had some basic ass lyrics most of the time, but put some respeck on Fiend, Mystikal, Mia X, Mac, Soulja Slim names, you hoe ass hater
