No Limit Records is a record label that began in the early 90’s as the No Limit Record Shop in Richmond, CA. Through a distribution deal with Priority Records to distribute No Limit Records music, millionaire founder Master P maintained ownership of all of his master recordings, his studio and became the sole distributor. He and his two brothers, C-Murder and Silkk Tha Shocker, were the label's main artists, along with a series of contract stars including, at various times, Mystikal, Snoop Dogg, Mac, and Lil Romeo, Master P's teenaged son.
