Snoop Dogg is celebrating his time with the No Limit crew.
The veteran hip-hop star made a surprise appearance on Saturday (Oct. 25) to show support for his former record label during its battle against Cash Money Records at ComplexCon in Las Vegas.
The “Drop It Like It’s Hot” rapper hit the stage to perform C-Murder’s classic “Down 4 My N****z,” sending the crowd at the Las Vegas Convention Center into a frenzy.
After leaving Death Row Records, Snoop joined Master P’s No Limit Records in 1998, releasing three albums — No Limit: Da Game Is to Be Sold, Not to Be Told (1998), No Limit Top Dogg (1999) and Tha Last Meal (2000) — during his brief time at the label.
Saturday’s Verzuz showdown celebrated two of Louisiana’s most iconic rap labels. No Limit’s lineup included Master P, Mia X and Silk the Shocker, while Cash Money brought heavy hitters like Juvenile, B.G., Mannie Fresh and Birdman.
Fans were treated to performances of legendary tracks including “400 Degreez,” “I’m Still Fly,” “Bling Bling,” “Break Em Off Something,” “How U Do That There,” “Slow Motion,” “Project Chick,” “Bout It Bout It,” “Real Big,” and “Make Em Say Unh,” according to Complex.
In early October, Complex announced a partnership with Verzuz to relaunch the music battle series at ComplexCon. “Rather than talking so much, we just want to get to the action,” Verzuz co-founders Swizz Beatz and Timbaland said in a joint statement.
Verzuz was launched in March 2020 by Timbaland and Swizz Beatz as a creative outlet during the COVID-19 pandemic. The platform was sold to Triller Network in March 2021 but had been largely dormant for nearly three years. Its most recent battles before ComplexCon included Cypress Hill vs. Onyx; 8Ball & MJG vs. UGK; Omarion vs. Mario; and Luny Tunes vs. DJ Nelson.
