False, the track with Bun B and the one with Anthony Hamilton were both fire and better than the singles. And the deluxe version had "Bedroom Boom" on it which was nice. -

Props to Master P and him making sure all his artists ate. No limit might've been the greatest rap label financially wise.
But....

One of them went triple
Charge it to the game album cover looks like it was made with Microsoft word 2000 -

Pen n pixel the goats. There's a thread dedicated to them here somewhere..
Most of these albums mentioned were good for times they were released in..
The only one that surprised me is that whitey ford ? . I swear Eminem dissing him couldn't get me to listen to that ? .. -

Actually Jackpot went triple (or very close to it), due to "Right Thurr", "Holidae Inn" and "One Call Away".
Powerballin' went Platinum (as in singular) and he had no hits (Balla Baby was minor didn't catch on)I on that ? . I think it was more of him riding off the success of his debut than anything.
With all that said, he was always boogie as ? to me, BUT he had ? ? grindin' on me in the club with his first couple singles. I'll give him that. -
That Balla Baby was straight. I remember Flip dissed Tip on the remix..
I know a skinny rapper out here playa hating
Cause I got 30 plaques on my resume
I'm drinking cristal, why he drinking alize
Cause me and Chingy got the pop charts on lock
Mane, how ? quickly changed and flipped for all 3 of em -
