Jim Jones Challenges Lloyd Banks To A Verzuz Battle: ‘I’ll Smoke Banks Head Up Right Now’

    While Jim Jones may not think he’s cut out for a rap battle, he’s most definitely ready to step back onto the Verzuz stage. During a recent interview on The Joe Budden Podcast, he said he’s got one particular G-Unit member in his crosshairs.

    “I’ll smoke Banks head up right now,” Jones said of Lloyd Banks. “You beg to differ? My shit is a package. To my drip, to my water, my shit is a package. My shit just ain’t the rap-age — it’s the package. When I come out they wanna see Capo. It’s not too many n-ggas that got that package.”

    He continued his tirade by asking Joe and co. when G-Unit last made a record that impacted the culture.

    “Where they gonna end up at?” Jones asked. “What year they gonna stop at? Fuck y’all think this is the nostalgia era? I’m not nostalgic, n-gga, I’m still lit — there’s a difference. What year you gon’ stop at? What’s the last record they did that really meant something to somebody that they could still get jiggy with? Not to be disrespectful, we talking Hip-Hop. That’s what we do, let’s be factual. Y’all here, y’all the Hip-Hop almanacs. Talk to me.”

    The last time Jim Jones hit the Verzuz stage was for the now-iconic Dipset showdown against The LOX last summer, and Jones has been hungry ever since to step back into the ring for a solo venture. Lloyd Banks is only the most recent contender Jones has challenged; he’s also called out Jadakiss, who was deemed MVP of The LOX battle last August.

    “I would want to have a Verzuz with Jada. Solo,” the Harlem rapper told HipHopDX in January. “He has to deal with me on my terms. He better be prepared. When it comes to a top three, I don’t really have a list. I just got real smoke with Jada.”

    Jada eventually got wind of Jim Jones’ comments and ultimately said he’s not interested: “I heard him say that but I didn’t entertain it. I don’t think Verzuz would entertain it. I don’t even think the people would want to see that.”

    Lloyd Banks hasn’t yet responded to Jim Jones’ challenge. In the meantime, listen to Jones’ full interview with The Joe Budden Podcast below.

    1. Please Don’t, You’ll just embarrass yourself Stinky Jimmy… Now hit the showers please for God sakes.

    2. Lmao Lloyd Banks would destroy this clown. I personally don’t really listen to either, but one of these guys can actually rap, the other one is jim jones.

      1. Just another walk in the park 🙏💪👑 cause um FRSH LIKE THAT & I CAN BNK UM BACK CAUSE I GOT IT CHABO ON GOD SHT NO LIE JUST STAY AND REALIZE THIS I HIT ALL TARGETS LIKE I BANGED BACK IN THIS SHT PAST TENCE GET LIFTED BUT NEVER STAY BENT #$? PEACE GODS & EARTS #$!🙏💪👑

    3. There is absolutely no way Dipset should’ve gotten clapped the way they did. Too focused on how they dressed, typical shit. LOX dismantled the Dips in epic fashion and after taking the L heard around the world, Jimmy wants smoke with Banks? Another actual MC? I appreciate the work Jimmy’s been putting out these last couple of years but mans is bugging.

    4. Jim jones dust as hell and never could rap he ruined every dip set song he’s ever been in and I was a huge dipset fan and as soon as Jim would come on I would fast forward to turn the song on don’t flow no bars no cadence just a okay rapper messing up every song with his stupid ass Goooonies!banks will mop the floor on this fool!

    5. Lol he really just wants attention, banks one the best to ever spit bars, his g unit features and his first couple.solo albums cant be matched… “we aint rich wed be glad to snatch ill send cars to ya crib like im.a cab dispatcher… “i got a car i only drive on thursdays imma stunna banks blows more cake than birthdays” banks is in.another league and those just his average lil punchlines he got so many you cant even count

    6. jim jones needs to challange a fictional movie rapper like p doc or b rabbit. from malibus most wanted.
      hes garbage and his corny vamp (tramp) style was gaaaaaaaaay.

      1. Now you’re being disrespectful ( that’s not true ) Jones got some good stuff mostly the old music like fly high ( i haven’t heard a good jones song in years myself but doesn’t mean that we need to start saying shit like that ) keep it respectful brotha

    7. Jim isn’t anywhere near Banks lyrical lane. go take a nap and sell some more sim cards. people also got to stop using the term “culture” to justify why they can’t compete lyrically

    8. Manz dropped a lil album with Maino and getting a lil shine of Lobby Boyz, so he’s feelin himself and thinks he’s an actual MC, smh. Banks would wash Jimmy’s no flow, can’t stay on beat, no-bars-having ass.

    9. All of Dipset lost to just Jada what makes this dust smoking fool think he could topple Banks by himself ?!

      1. I was just gon say the same thing ??? i mean jones ain’t a bad rapper but he ain’t stand no chance against banks as a matter of fact 0,00% chance

    10. Lmao you got yo be kidding Jim u got style and all but you didn’t even write your best song Ballin you know dis, there’s no way you could hang with banks intellectual skills or bucks still in the streets heats stomping beats like cleets on concrete streets, even yayo would finish ya, cut u up and diminish you, and leave you in the jungle where the natives never heard of you, even uncle would murder you, and leave you to the spider sitting right down beside ya, as the web binds you no need to hide you as the fangs strike ya spine , what happened to ya mind , divine as sword swings ya find your line as your decapitated by tech nine

    11. Love Jimmy to death and been a fan for decades. However this is a suicide mission. Banks was g units.assassin and everyone knows it. He is the LOXs Jada…and we see how that turned out. Love ya Capo but I don’t want to see that happen to you twice bro. I’d rather you go against T.I. now that would be entertainment.
