Explanations
[edit]Beware of the Tank Dogs
[edit]Beware of the Tank Dogs was a collaborative effort between Fiend, Snoop Dogg, Mac, & C-Murder. Mystikal was a late addition to the cover. All of these artists have songs titled "Tank Dogs", with Snoop and Mystikal having "TRU Tank Dogs" on Da Game Is to Be Sold, Not to Be Told and Mac, Fiend, and C-Murder having "Tank Dogs" on Shell Shocked. One song on the album was leaked [citation needed] featuring Mr. Serv-On.
Short Circuit - Gone AWOL
[edit]Gone AWOL (originally titled Freedom or Death) was teased until 2001. Many reasons for the delays were Short Circuit's incarceration, and No Limit declined when he was released. Some rumors suggest that the album was released in 1999 but was immediately taken off the shelves. However, it is unlikely that this rumor is true.
Down South Hustlers: Makin' Moves
[edit]There isn't much information about the follow-up to the Bouncin' and Swingin' compilation. In 2011, Beats by the Pound producer Mo B. Dick released an unofficial sequel titled "Everybody Eat".
The album was "leaked" on YouTube by the channel Jrama Jackson but it was quickly outed as a phony bootleg comprised of previously released material.
Samm - Enemy of the Streets
[edit]Enemy of the Streets was expected to be released in 2001 [citation needed] but never did due to No Limit's internal conflicts. Not much is known about the album. Producer Donald XL Robertson said the files were destroyed in Hurricane Katrina [citation needed], making it irrecoverable.
Mia X - Sista Stories
[edit]Contains word-by-word content from the Mia X article
Beginning in 1999, Mia X went on hiatus from recording following the deaths of several family members, including both her parents, in an eighteen-month span, in addition to the dissolution of the No Limit roster due to Master P pursuing non-musical interests.[2][3] Sista Stories was shelved in 2000 but was later teased again on an advertisement for The New No Limit [citation needed]. Mia X appeared on No Limit's Rap City freestyles, which was a clue that she was back in the rap scene; however, her album was ultimately shelved again, and Sista Stories was never released.
Silkk The Shocker - Change The Game
[edit]Not to be confused with Charge It 2 da Game
Change The Game was supposed to be Silkk's debut album under No Limit's "New No Limit" rebrand. The album and several other New No Limit releases were teased in a Billboard advertisement [citation needed] and New No Limit's CD booklets. The album did have a promo single named "We Gon' Party"[4], however, it had a terrible performance, which led to the album's scrapping. His next album, Based on a True Story replaced it.
