History was made at ComplexCon Las Vegas 2025 when two titans of Southern hip-hop, Cash Money vs. No Limit, reunited for an epic Verzuz showcase. This event, held on October 25th, marked the official return of the Verzuz franchise and transformed the festival into a vibrant celebration of Southern hip-hop heritage. Millions tuned in to witness this reunion of two of rap’s most influential families, broadcast live and in high definition across multiple platforms.
The No Limit Records roster, led by the iconic Cash Money vs. No Limit, took the stage to the thunderous sound of “No Limit Soldier,” igniting the arena with a wave of nostalgia. Master P, Silkk the Shocker, Mystikal, and Mia X delivered a performance that reeked of the signature energy that defined New Orleans rap in the late ’90s – military-precision staging, infectious call-and-response, and that undeniable street-entrepreneurial swagger. The sight of gold tanks rolling across the LED-lit stage was a powerful homage to the Ghetto D era, flooding the venue with pride.
Closing out the night with a true coronation were the Cash Money Records heavyweights. Juvenile, Lil Wayne, Birdman, and Mannie Fresh brought the house down with a euphoric rendition of “Back That Azz Up,” transforming the Mandalay Bay Convention Center into a sea of 10,000 voices singing in unison. The energy was palpable as flashing strobes and diamond visuals accompanied the iconic hook, a testament to the enduring power of their music. Juvenile’s heartfelt thanks to the fans for their loyalty over the decades, and his salute to Master P for “keeping the South strong,” underscored the night’s overarching theme.
While billed as a battle, the event transcended competition, evolving into a genuine celebration of unity and mutual respect. Decades of friendly rivalry were put aside as both camps embraced, highlighting nearly thirty years of Southern rap dominance. From the independent hustle of No Limit to the innovative business model of Cash Money, the showcase was a powerful reminder of how these labels reshaped the hip-hop landscape forever, championing regional pride and creative ownership. It was a night that solidified the legacy of Southern hip-hop and its indelible impact on global culture.
