Banks.
Dope cover
Banks is a good MC, too bad DJ Drama is on it
gangsta grillz you bastards!!
Lloyd Banks isn’t successful because he doesn’t grow as an artist. His concepts, flows, lyrics, beats are still exactly the same as when he dropped in the 2000’s. If you heard one Banks mixtape, you heard um all.
Actually, Banks sounds different than he did in the 2000s. He switched up his style, flow and voice.
^right lmao the first dude dont know wtf he talkin bout…banks right now is not the banks in 2005
exactly banks has the same lyrics and style as in 2004. He is just a mixtaperapper without 50 Cent he would swep the floors at mcdonalds. Dude aint special!!!!!
Banks is so dope and he is not that old. IDK why Lil Wayne is so much more famous then him. Banks just need some more bangers like Beamer benz and bentley.
nigga…you gay.
dope cover fuck your opinion
NO 1 CAREZ! DIZ NIGGA IZ TOO OLD! ONLY YUNG NIGGAZ GETTIN MONEY… SHOUTOUT TO MA NIGGAZ 2 CHAINZ, CHIEF KEEF, RICK ROSS, BIRDMAN, TYGA, TRINIDAD JAMES. REAL HIP HOP IS STILL ALIVE.
but aint 2chainz and birdman like 40
Bird man is almost 50 years old you dumb negro
Banks is 30, Titty Boi is 37, and Birdman is 46…
THIS NIGGA IS RIDICOLOUS, IN HIS CASE, FAILURE IS PROBABLY HIS ONLY OPTION, HIS LAST ALBUM FLOPPED, HE CAN’T EVEN GET ANY ALBUM RELEASED, HIS MIXTAPE SUCKED AND NOBODY LISTENS TO HIM. IF THERE WAS NO 50 IN PAST DAYS, HE WOULD BE PROBABLY BROKE FOREVER.
SORRY BANKS, BUT THOSE WERE STRAIGHT FACTS.
LOVE BANKS !
ha! lil 50, following in his big brother’s footsteps. go get yours banks.
Hfm2 was a raw hip hop album even I don’t deserve you girl ft jermiah, banks was goin hard on that . Banks sold close to 70,000 1st week sales but he dropped on the same day as nicki Minaj and kanye west both those CDs went platinum. Banks jus don’t promote his self cc2 was a classic mix tape and I only seen one video from the mix tape. 50 need to get with banks cause he dont no what he has. 50 more business minded now days. I’ll take banks over buck and game anyday.
Game > G-Unit
Banks is better then 95 percent of the rappers is the game, it’s that you bitch made ass nuggets relate to walk shit in the game now and don’t know real hip hop. If real rap was still alive , banks will be rich. The game taken over by all these white bitch ass niggas making money on who ever can talk about cars and hoes on a hard beat. I.e chief keef and meek mill.
“White bitch ass niggas” oh..
you call banks real hiphop? real hiphop is rakim, biggie, krs, big l.
So banks is better then 95% of the rappers in the game. Which rappers you mean souljah boy, copycat Game, boring 50 cent, french montana, faggot drake??????
I guess he don’t live in Queens no more.
banks and yayo can pay rent his game left haha, 50 use ya asss, now you felling off
This is gonna be dope
Collaborate with the realest and illest… Drake.
IF YOU EVER SAY SOME DUMB SHIT LIKE THAT AGAIN…
“without 50 Cent he would swep the floors at mcdonalds. Dude aint special!!!!!”
Not Mcdonalds. Maybe Taco Bell.
What The Fuck Is Up With All These Acronyms? F.I.L.A., O.N.I.F.C, H.N.I.C., R.E.D., Now F.N.O? Do These Rap Niggas Have Any Creativity Anymore?!!! I Swear To God, If I See One More Corny Ass Acronym, I’m Gonna Slit My Wrist!!!!
Better collabs with 50 or people will be dissapointed
what people?
Haters will be haters, suckers will be suckers… meaning; you’re still sucking the G-Unity dick to have comment here… Anonymous faggot
If you don’t like Banks, keep it moving.. I happen to not enjoy 2Chaniz’s music, but i sure as hell don’t take the time to log into this thing and blabber about ish I don’t know. Funny thing is, yes- by today’s standards. Banks’ last actual album, H.FM. did flop. But… dude went platinum with his single Beamer Benz or Bentley, and he still pushed around 180,000 total. The difference is he is off Interscope and isn’t under their bullshit publishing rights (Still under G-Unit). Banks is basically a free agent, and drops mixtapes because he is one of the best at them. Check datpiff.com, and notice under 3 or more mixtapes (V6, CC2, Halloween havoc of his, it say’s “Top Mixtape of ____ year” He has evolved in so many ways, it’s unreal. If you check him from back in the 5 or better series, to now the most recent V6, CC2, etc it’s clear as day. He is top 5 alive right now. He got the Kanye cosign years ago on that too. Artist like him don’t have to move platinum albums, considering you’re touring overseas quite often, are making tracks with multiple respect artist/are respected and are sitting on 15million at 30 years old, yeah I might do things my way too.
Just say you’re a groupie and call it a day..How do you know he has 15 million?Are you his accountant?Typical G-Unit stan…log off lame..
GET OFF BANKS DICK U FAGGOT HE WACK AS A MOTHER FUCKER! TOP 5 STILL ALIVE!! WOT HAVE YOU BEEN SMOKING TOP 5 WACKEST RAPPERS MAYBE
gonna be dope!
Number 1 Playboy definitely… Punchline King
Just to make suckers remember & believe, that’s why HFM2 has less hands of 50 on it… Beamer Benz or Bentley, Start it Up, Any Girl, Where am at, Celebrity… All Hits… damn! what else do u want Hatersssssssssssss!
don’t forget so forgetful!
Banks top 5 for me. He rips everything he’s on. People can talk about sales, wealth, albums, age, business acumen, etc. all they want, but for me as a hip-hop fan, all that matters is whether an emcee can spit dope lyrics with versatile flows. And for that there’s hardly anyone out there who can match Lloyd Banks.
What, you think AZ is wack because he’s not signed to a major or over 30? Or KRS-One? I hear Rakim isn’t doing that much recently; is he irrelevant?
Haters are going to hate that Banks had more money when he was 22 than they will ever see in their lives.
you are doubledumb
@ANON…..Actually FAM you are the DUMBASS….homie speaks nothing but the TRUTH….Banks is A SICKO LYRICST…..fuck outta here.
Failure is no option, where have I heard that before? Oh ye, Get Rich or Die Tryin’
lol, why you sad? they got rich before they died and he ain’t trying to fail
brush that hate off ya teeth
HIS PEN MOVEMENT IS DEADLY…..you are TRIPPIN’ if you think otherwise…..his mixtape catalouge is RIDICULOUS and he hands down has some of the best bars in Hip Hop….I WISH I could hear and Banks/AZ collab…..when he went in with The Chef last couple times that was ill….as well as him and Kiss….BANK$ is that DUDE….it’s the G-Unit hate in 95% of your veins that BLIND THE DOG SHIT OUT OF YOU CORNBALLS…..I’ll be waiting on this….
^ this a cool white dude right here
a come thru & break out the vaporizer while go thru hiphop archives type of fan
respect
LLYOD SPANKS IS A HOMO HE SOUNDS LIKE OSCAR THE GROUCH ON EVERY ALBUM!! FUCK THESE G-UNIT TOY SOLDIERS, SUCKING 50 BENTS DICK ALL DAY. HE CANT RAP, WONT GET NO DOPE FEATURES CAUSE NO ONE WANTS TO WORK WITH HIS UGLY ASS AND HE WONT SELL NO ALBUMS(LUCKY IF HE GETS TOP 20 BILLBOARD) AND YOU KNOW IT. HE WACK AS A MOTHER FUCKA FUCK TONY GAYO 2!! GGGGGUNOT!! HA HA! OSCAR THE GROUCH CAREER=R.I.P
Hi Game! You signed to Cash Money Records how does it feel to have a boss who doesn’t pay his artists
LLOYD WAKE UP! FALIURE’S THE ONLY OPTION!! THE WHOLE WORLD KNOWS UR 50’S BITCH AND U CANT RAP WORTH SHIT “IM A GUNIT TOY SOLDIER DOING VOICE OVERS” HA HA HA GAME KILLED YO ASS!!

-______________________________________-
Seriously? Lemee guess you a ‘Banks fan’ or a ’50 stan’
wake the fuck up. G-Unit been dead since what ’11
Banks n 50 don’t fuck with each other. This site had what like 5 months of ‘G-Unit reunion articles’ then it didnt happen
and none of those articles had 50 saying anything about doing a reunion. he the one that shot it down.
… that was games bipolar ass begging and making a petition cause he knows the most success he ever had was with the unit
Banks top 5 alive
Top 5 of what, the fastest burn out’s in hip hop history?
Cool no 50

PLK
only 4 features nice, I hate mixtapes with loads of features
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gkBvuhBBhvA
Hope this comes close to ‘The hunger for more 2’. The Styles P & Raekwon features are a good look.
one reason y he cant blow up is cuz of his features…only ny features wont get u so far…like banks u gotta go commercial eventually like meek did
that was cuz of the ross n south co sign meek mill would be as big as vado now if he stayed by himself
C’MON. ACTUALLY, YOU ARE PARTIALLY RIGHT. BUT WOULD YOU RESPECT PLK IF HE BLANTANTLY DID MUSIC WITH MUCH INFERIOR RAPPERS FROM THE SOUTH? HE COULD GO COLE, KRIT, BUN B OR YELOWOLF, BUT THAT IS ABOUT IT.
meek never blew up
You do realize Banks is a multi-platinum artist, right? He had his time! He’s from a different era. Not collaborating with more current artists much like not making his presence felt in the today’s media like say a Fab for instance, hurts him along with the rest of The Unit – but in the end he’s done things that some of today’s hottest artists won’t and seems to be satisfied with that.

second song is fire
i like how i never heard of none of these producers
not even doe pesci? go back to ur cave
probably heard his beats but i guess i dont pay that much attention to new producers
i still got that last banks mixtape in the 6cd changer in the whip
The plague is sick !!!
this tape is better than anything i’ve heard in months. havent skipped a track yet dog
honestly i wanna know wat artists wanna work wit him
this shit is ill. always been a banks fan. he dope solo but him n fif need to drop somthin soon
on house pride, his first ten bars…i had to pause the song real quick
Lloyd banks and dj drama nice job on the mixtape. We needed this.
Banks killed that The Natural track. Got that track on repeat
Damn, mad impressed. Dude knows how to pick his beats. Bank$ can really get on his poetic shit over the smooth boom bap beats. Some tracks like ‘You Wish’ just take me to another place. Straight nostalgia rap. This is what you can do when you stay true to yourself and keep your own sound. Bank$ will always be underrated and appreciated but he’ll always have that cult following. This tape in his top 2
http://i1.ytimg.com/vi/fyPsRyhP0CY/mqdefault.jpg
EVERY RAPPER MIGHT AS WELL JUST FORGET RELEASING A MIX TAPE NOW AND GO PRACTICE FOR EVER AND STILL NOT MATCH THIS
good mixtape
best that ever did it!!!! goes hard from 1-16! nobody gives free music like this. they give u trash music and on top of that u have to buy it. fuck the industry. banks the best
rich forever is better than this shit
it was also better than his own fucking album LOL where they do that at
Lloyd Banks shits on everything Ross has ever released in his entire life.
this is a must download. 4 stars easy.
GET’EM Bank$!!!!!!!!!!!! Gurrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!( dog grawls).
BANKS!
“meek never blew up”
He’s been on plenty of buzzed songs, and has been featured on Self Made 1-3 which combined, have sold 437,000. Throw in an album and plenty of media press, and he’s more popular than most.
yoooo thats hilarious that you added up the self made sales and all 3 together aint even gold LOLOLOL
“You do realize Banks is a multi-platinum artist, right?”
That was how many years ago? lol Plus he only did it once. He’s in no position to coast.
