Pastor Troy attempted to shake up the south’s Hip Hop hierarchy at the turn of the century with his 1999 “No Mo Play in G.A.” track which saw him diss Master P. The Atlanta native is still hearing about it to this day and was recently asked by VladTV about the No Limit Records boss having him removed as a headliner at the ATL Birthday Bash concert shortly after its release.
“Master P went to the radio station and had me removed off the show and he was placed on the show,” he claimed. “It just wasn’t a good move down here in Atlanta. Everybody was representing for the home team and he had a very difficult concert that night.”
The Goodie Mob actually stepped in and invited P. Troy to roll with them to the show. They ended up bringing the Down South Georgia Boyz rapper out to perform “No Mo Play in G.A.” during their set that night, much to the delight of the hometown crowd.
“The Goodie Mob gave me a call like, ‘We want you to perform on our set! Can’t nobody take you off no show,'” he recalled. “We can hear the crowd screaming, ‘We ready’ from the car. Goodie Mob gets on the stage and they stop their set and bring me out.
“I can hear CeeLo saying, ‘ATL, one thing about us, we stick together. With that being said, come on Troy.’ When ‘No Mo Play in G.A.’ came on at that Lakewood Amphitheatre, I was viral before viral.”
Pastor Troy Calls Out T.I., Ludacris & Jeezy For Equal ATL King Respect
Pastor Troy believes that to be a seminal moment in Atlanta Hip Hop history when defending its own turf and led to him rocking the World Heavyweight Championship belt everywhere he goes.
Listen to the anthem once again below.
Not a classic, I just head it for the first time and it was wack. This guy is an ant/peon compared to P and No Limit.
You’re young as fuck if u don’t think PT is a staple. FOH lol
Camoflauge from Savannah did the remix and it was fire too
Problem with listening to songs for the first time 20+ years later is you miss context. Troy was a crunk music pioneer. Atlanta had Dungeon Family for substance but Troy and Oomp Camp had the clubs.
That album was trash.
Staple in ATL. Like 50 said, your ass is local. I’m from Florida, Pastor Troy had a couple songs and that’s it. Plus, he ain’t even from ATL!!!!!
You sound dumb that’s like someone saying JT Money isn’t a down south legend cause he wasn’t major. All them dudes pioneers.
Respect the game that’s how it goes, Lil summthin 4 u raggadey azz hoez
How he not from Atlanta and we went to elementary middle and high school together?? Just cause he went to college in Augusta don’t mean that’s where he’s from
I actually liked hit man Sammy Sam better than pastor Troy. Sammy Sam is actually from Atlanta. Too bad he couldn’t leave the drugs alone or be a functional junky like majority of the other rappers.
WHAT DO YOU CONSIDER OLD SKOOL ?????
