The label showdown at ComplexCon in Las Vegas on Oct. 25 brought together two New Orleans rap dynasties and offered a fresh take on the format: less battle, more celebration. The night featured over 20 defining hits from both catalogs and a live crowd that turned the event into a communal nostalgia wave.
From the moment the lights dropped, it felt like stepping into a moving mixtape. Big hooks and call-and-response moments dominated as fans sung along to “Slow Motion” and “Back That Azz Up,” showcasing the bounce built by Mannie Fresh alongside the party energy of Cash Money’s catalog. No Limit answered in kind with tank-era anthems and chant-driven jams—reminding everyone how the label became a movement under Master P’s leadership.
This installment of Verzuz reframed itself as a celebration rather than a competition, changing the spirit of the evening. The set-list leaned into well-known favorites—“Bling Bling,” “Ha,” “Get Your Roll On,” “I’m Bout It, Bout It”—and delivered them with energy that matched the memories of the crowd while proving that the catalogs still hit.
There was no official winner, and that was part of the point. For the club-bounce hooks, Cash Money stood tall. For the chant-driven crowd presence and street swagger, No Limit answered strong. In the end, just the fact that the South’s two major labels shared the stage felt like a win for the culture.
This event wasn’t just a nostalgia lap—it marked a relaunch of the format through a collaboration with ComplexCon, complete with multi-platform streaming and a live show element that proved the format remains potent when built on deep catalogs.
Quick facts from the night: the show was held at ComplexCon in Las Vegas, began at 5 p.m. PT / 8 p.m. ET, and streamed on Apple Music, Apple TV, and Instagram via Apple Music, Complex and Verzuz pages. The framing as a “celebration” rather than a straight competition was repeated throughout.
Highlights included no official winner, a set-list made of label-defining hits rather than obscure deep cuts, and already-available clips of key performances. The verdict: a triumphant return. The catalogs still crush. The format still works. And for one night in Vegas, two logos reminded the industry what dominance in the South sounded like.
