This is one those times when the charts don't tell the whole story.
Most people would know back that *** up word for than Slow Motion.

The Number Ones: Juvenile’s “Slow Motion” (Feat. Soulja Slim)
In The Number Ones, I’m reviewing every single #1 single in the history of the Billboard Hot 100, starting with the chart’s beginning, in 1958, and working my way up into the present.

I willing to bet in the last 5 years Back That *** Up has probably been played double to triple times more than Slow Motion has over the last 5.

If I remember right, 400 Degreez has been out for a lil minute before Back That *** Up dropped as a single. I think Follow Me Now was the first single followed by Ha and then BTAU. Tha G-Code released not too long after it.

Album had been out close to a year before BTAU dropped.

400 Degreez was out a whole 8 months before that. CMR ain't really take off yet. That record jump started the whole label. BTAU dropped in June 99 soon as the summer hit. It's like they planned it cuz it was summer time, I don't know if the song and video would had the same effect if dropped winter/spring.
I would love to see how big the albums sales jumped that summer.

Bling Bling was the #1 Cash Money record in my house. Me and my brothers went crazy for that song, It was great but I can't even explain the grip it had on us

The transition from everybody rocking with No Limit to everybody rocking with Cash Money in real time was insane. It happened so fast, like at the snap of a finger people were laughing and snickering if you were listening to any new No Limit stuff after 99, and especially after 2000

Pastor Troy pretty much took No Limit out in ATL. They came to Birthday Bash and got no love, boo’d some actually. At that same time we were becoming more hip to the NO rap scene and culture.The transition from everybody rocking with No Limit to everybody rocking with Cash Money in real time was insane. It happened so fast, like at the snap of a finger people were laughing and snickering if you were listening to any new No Limit stuff after 99, and especially after 2000
Man, that was a monumental ATL moment at that Birthday Bash with Troy performing No Mo Play and having damn near the entire Dungeon Family and anybody that was hot from da A at the time standing with him.

Definitely hurt them!! Too much, too soon, too many also hurt them. I understand what P was trying to do. But he should’ve just focused on that core group. Mia, C, Silkk, Snoop, Fiend, Mac, and Mystikal

I think P adding too many new members in 98-99 and not paying the top acts like Mystikal, Fiend, BBTP, etc led to the downfall. After that 504 album you could tell the label was in disarray. Well probably just before that with the way Mystikal and BBTP left.

That Ha Remix with Jigga was the worst feature/remix in the history of Hip Hop - hated that verse…

Watching that video reminded me that artists used to actually record a clean version of their songs with different lyrics
Random but I remember being young and my dad always pointing out that there isn’t any flight thats 3 days

Songs had the city on fire before they blew up nationally.
They always got more love than no limit in the city cause their sound was homegrown vs No limit was more of a west coast/Bay Area feel
.We still had major love for them cause they put us on the map,it just after 2000 P started doing tooo much
