Data Insight
The solo count halves from ten to five while the track total stays about the same, so the No Limit roster is doing more of the writing than it did a year earlier. Snoop Dogg, Master P and Silkk the Shocker all take credits. It is the last album he made inside that system.
Ghetto Fabulous came out on No Limit and Jive in December 1998, reached number five on the Billboard 200 and is certified platinum. It is his second album for the label in thirteen months.
