No Limit Top Dogg is the fourth studio album (the second on No Limit Records) by American rapper Snoop Dogg. It was released May 11, 1999, by No Limit Records and Priority Records.
The album's lead single "Bitch Please" featuring Xzibit and Nate Dogg, produced by Dr. Dre became a hit. The music video for the album's second single "G Bedtime Stories" which was a success, the song was produced by Meech Wells. Production was handled by Master P, Dr. Dre, KLC and Snoop himself.
The album generally gained positive reviews from critics with Complex placing it at Number 17 on their list of The Top 25 Best No Limit Albums on April 5, 2013 (the only one of Snoop's 3 albums released during his time at the record label).
No Limit Top Dogg debuted at number 2 on the US Billboard 200, selling 187,400 copies in its first week. which only became the second to Ricky Martin's 1999 self-titled album with huge first week sales of 661,000 copies.
Though it was Snoop Dogg's first album to not debut at number 1 and have strong album sales for the first week (probably due to the very anticipated Ricky Martin sales rush), it eventually sold 1,100,000 copies by closing the year of 1999 making it the 73rd best selling album of the year. It topped 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.
As of March 2008, the album had sales 1,518,000 copies in the United States.
