It’s cool for you to choose X, but for you to say that No Limit only had a few “singles” played in 98 and Cash Money was bigger is simply lies.
Who Ran Hip Hop In 1998

Not really bruh im just tellin u how i remember. I was 11 going on 12 in 98.
All summer long we hooped listening to dmx. Went back to school n when juvie came out everybody was on that shit. Tagging variations of Cash Money [insert school crew name here] like little kids do.
I know ppl fucked with Da Last Don but shit wasnt getting played like that where i was at. Went from DMX straight to Cash Money.

This may take awhile!
1998 I was coming back from Europe and the middle East.
For me it was No Limit that ran that time frame. But if I had to pick one rapper I would say DMX. The jist of what DMX accomplished didnt manifest until the next year. No Limit was already riding the success from 96-97. 98 was the year they truly cashed in.
Goodie Mob, Lauren Hill, Black Star and one my all time favorite albums AQUEMINI dropped later that year.
No one can say that they ran 98. Longevity stand point Lauren Hill dropped the most classic album from that bunch. Miseducation is listed as one of the best R&B albums in the 90's.

lots of good mentions in here but I dont see 400 Degreez
shit kinda punched no limit in the mouth right before the close of the year
no need to name the plat artists at this point, they did them

Really man You would just have to run through them. They all had their time. P, C-murder, Silk, TRU, Mac, Fiend, Mia X etc.
By far, Mystical and Mac are the albums that stood the test of time for me. Also Master P later albums. Never was a huge C-murder or Silk fan. They had their moments for me.
I bought Charge It To The Game

Ha whut say whuuuut?? that shit jammed lol
matter of fact, we gone act like Master P didnt put Destiny's Child on? They were on several NL songs before they were big like that.

Ignorance can be remedied. Stupidity is incurable.
I'm a SoCal cat and I was heavy on that No Limit in 98. DMX was my favorite artist of the time and those two albums he dropped were ignorant. Wasn't a Jay fan at that point but I saw how big he was. Lauryn Hill dropped one of my favorite albums of all time.
It was a great time to be a hip-hop fan for me. Sitting here thinking about it, I can't choose any one entity and say that they dominated that year.

aight...i'ma just say this, b/c its semantics at this point
cant remember who said it (sorry) but they said NL as a whole ran 98
not one single artist was mentioned by that particular poster
NL was dropping artists every week saturating the market. No matter where you were, you heard NL. You might not have fucked with the artists entire project, but you heard the singles and probably the next tiered songs as well
if the question was which artist ran 98, then MAYBE master P gets a mention, but you cant deny what they did as a label
you a legend for thisI bought Charge It To The Game
well, Caddo and 1/2 pretty much summed up my postMention? Yea, MVP?
i should've kept reading
but 98 was a year i dont think you can just outright give to one person
hip hop ran the country that year
I bought Charge It To The Game
Unfortunately I did also off the strength of It Ain't My Fault
