banks is one of those niggas, same as cassidy, young chris, fabolous, etc. that can spit with the upper echelon of rappers, but for whatever reason, cant find the same success or popularity that other rappers get.
they make top singles i.e. "make me better"-fabolous, or relatively dope albums like the hunger for more, but just cant seem to get over that hump into the top notch of rappers.
damn yo i cant believe their album flopped...that ahit is HOT...mad people in the hood are bumpin it so its gettin heard, guess everyone bootlegged it
o well, about the song...banks always brings heat lyrically...IMO he was always the nicest from the unit
whoa makeitrain...SUCCESS? banks went plat on hunger for more and made cash off beg for mercy
now if u mean commercially (radio shit etc.) then yea u rite...but banks is a successful rapper and everyone knows who he is
@ betyalyfe... thats the way it is now we have to get use to it..if you ain't an artist that caters to the radio it's gonna be a struggle to go gold...i'll be the 1st to admit i am a huge gunit fan but i downloaded the album.. i just can't see spending the loot if i can get it free...cd's are obsolete!!
this dude is my fav rapper idk maybe cuz im from queens haha bt i kno therea bettr emcees out there (jay-z,nas,eminem) but if he keeps it consistens he is up there wit tha spitters n i think evn better thn cassidy n fabolous...neways fire track still waitin on the mixtape "blood in a gangstas grill" w/dj drama
This is fuckin nasty, I love Lloyd Banks. I bumped the Hunger For More for like 4 months. And still do time to time. This dude knows how to lay it down. Best Of Lloyd Banks Vol 3. Is my Favorite shit too. But is true that he is having a hard time making commerical cake. He needs to call up deezel to lay him some lollipop beats, everyone will be hatin on it cuz its that radio bullshit. but thats where the papper is at. If little girls can sing it on the radio then Money is on the way, but the hood isn't too happy. Thats why Rappers these days need to even it out. Or just stay commerical and let the dough stack.. MOB
that's funny... Cause I could have sworn that mixtapes usually contained a showcase of that particular emcees overall skill. Last time I remember people bought mixtapes to hear something with an 'ooh ahh factor'. Dont be mad ur boy just got lazy after the big withdrawl. Budden ain't ever dropped a lazy flow on a mixtape so stop making excuses. Punchlines aren't played out, his style is. I wasn't aware that Budden, Royce, Crooked I, Joel Ortiz and other guys of the like that YOU may consider a type of a punchline rapper (even tho all i named are well rounded) were played out... Guess you just schooled me, champ.
those punchline rappers... what are they selling. damn sure not going plat... and that right there proves my point. it dont matter what u bumping in yo car that nobody knew was out lol
co-sign whooztheboss.. you're right.. and his he seems like he exagerates his voice more or something these days.. hunger for more is def in my top ten albums.. these shit here.. this shit right here nigga.. this shit wont cut it
I BOUGHT Mood Muzik 3. Just cause you don't prsonally buy them doesn't mean others do not. I also know people that bought The Nigger Tape. Point is this is obviously mixtape material and for me he wasn't up to par in comparison to his flow back in the day. this sub par verse had nothin to do with sales. Ur doing a mixtape Banks, impress me. This is my opinion as an artist standpoint and I know many others that agree
fuck yall niggas that think banks is the shit if u think hes the shit call him and say u wanna suck his dick u bitchass niggas fuck yalll bitches cyclones 13
shut the fuck up ill kill u in a minute southside 13 is the shit yall negros need to keep ur mouth shut. i dont have prombloems wit crips becuase they got connections with us southsiders so fuck u nigga
I agree Banks is known but it's more because of 50 than his own talent..It's not right but that's the way it is..He nice but let's not forget he's a punchline rapper just like all the artist you named..i.e. Fab and Cass...All 3 mixtapes are way better than their albums..Niggaz don't remember when Yayo and Banks use to go bar for bar on them mixtapes and Yayo held his own back...He was the nicest behind Banks back then..Even 50 was a hell of a lot nicer..
Ay u right brah. Niggaz don't know bout that old Unit. Em mixtapes was jus like albums. Yayo has always had that potential and like everybody else it soon shows. He was sayin hard stuff back then.
But Banks OWNED THE MIXTAPE SCENE FOR A GOOD 6 MONTHS between 02-03 then Cassidy took over.
Top 5 lyricists. Don't know the order cuz its too hard but jus naming.
Errybody noez that bankz iz the only lyrical nigga left on g-unot recordz period out the hole roster..n like the big homie GAME said..he gone be the nexx to leave ..that way he kan get out of boo-boo shadow n really shine..but u niggaz already noe ITZ BLACK WALLSTREET BITCH!!! 4LIFE!! GGG G-UNOT!!
still spittin flames to dis day and niccas continue to hate... Banks was and always will be da best rapper/lyricist to ever be in g unit and only da foolish and those blinded by hate cant see that
yall niggas i s all washed up meet me in la and ill kill all yall southside 13 is the shit yall niggas is wack fuck yyall ill kill yall niggas wit my ak 47 kill yall bloods cyclones 13 bitch ass niggas
Cool mixtape track...not sure why u guys are always comparing mixtape tracks to an artists best album material...but for what it is, it aint bad. Better than that overrated Buddens crappola...I don't care if its a history lesson, shit is dull.
Banks def my fav rapper in the game. He only spit fire. 50 need to put him up front so he can sell. Hunger for more, banger. Rotten apple, not as good but he still came hard with the verses. This song right here is ok. i;ve heard betta from him like that "Top 5"
shit was hard banks is that nigga and i agree with the kid who said he just like fab cassidy and all real rappers who dont get the props they gotta get just cuz they go over niggas heads
yea cass banks nd fab they some of my favorites they albums be sellin tho banks sold 2 mill off hunger for more fab went platinum every time accept 4 real talk cass went gold off the first he prolly make gold onbars to but yet these niggas still dont be gettin they props wen they the 3 top punchline rappers in the game

You a hater join the club...the line around the block.......Banks punchlines been crazy 2000.....the stars came out tonite...but Im the big dipper.....I do kinda wish he could find a lane away from the unit
^^^ exactly @ "SNYDE"...lloyd banks can blow up more if he can go solo, i'm not saying he should leave g-unit altogether but become a solo artist on the label and i promise you the industry would be in trouble if lloyd was on his on grizzly

look around the music industry. this is 2008, not 2003. cant adapt, cant be in the game
