No Limit Top Dogg is Snoop Dogg's fourth studio album and his second on No Limit Records, and his first on his own label Doggystyle Records. It was released May 11, 1999 and features the hit single "Bitch Please" featuring Xzibit and Nate Dogg, produced by Dr. Dre. The album's 187,400 debut week sales made it jump to #2 on the Billboard album charts, only second to Ricky Martin's 1999 self-titled album with huge first week sales of over 661,000 copies. Though it was Snoop Dogg's first album to not debut at #1 and have strong album sales for the first week (probably due to the very anticipated Ricky Martin sales rush), it eventually sold 1,503,865 copies in 1999. It did top the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums though.
Planning of this album dates back a few days prior to the release of Da Game Is to Be Sold, Not to Be Told.

Famous quotes containing the words limit and/or top:
“Today one does not hear much about him.... The fame of his likes circulates briskly but soon grows heavy and stale; and as for history it will limit his life story to the dash between two dates.”
—Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
“From top to bottom of the ladder, greed is aroused without knowing where to find ultimate foothold. Nothing can calm it, since its goal is far beyond all it can attain. Reality seems valueless by comparison with the dreams of fevered imaginations; reality is therefore abandoned.”
—Emile Durkheim (1858–1917)
