i aint got beef but damnthis kid blue hefner can rap man, this kid bringing hip hop back, lets face it G-unit ias a team that a lot of people would like to be part of, they run the rap game and they aint about to flop anytime soon,50 is the boss,Banks is the underboss,Buck is real hard-feel his lyrics from within, i’m tired of people who don’t really listen to music and all they wan’t is that bubble gum rap shit all day,listen to 50 man on that mobb deep track-CREEP, that nigga 50 nothing but real, he told niggaz the 1st time he came around what he about and thats his paper,banks has got this shit on lock and creatively for any artist, there’s no better place to be than G-unit records and aftermath, these niggaz understand hustling and being broke and rising from nothing to being a star and a powerful influential person, people don’t hate man this kid banks is 24 and he got the game on lock, where have you seen a 24 year old millionaire that comes out of the hood and has got shit on lock? be happy for other niggaz success man. G-UNIT runs it at the moment, these niggaz are stacking their paper man, they don’t care about no internet comments and shit. but ya Rotten is the most underrated cd in 2006. i had to listen to the cd twice and i must say Banks brings it here, this is the typa shit you bump to when rolling in your whip withyour niggaz or a bitch,banks is smooth man. this kid’s lines will hurt anyone in the game and niggaz no that. don’t bump headz with the kid-you heard!

“BWSGUNNER”

As long as you’re speaking for yourself, that’s cool. But I was quoting you when you said “but there aint one song on that album with excpetion of cake that move “people” “. How are you gonna determine wut moves otha people if you’re not them?? I kno mad dudes that’s bumpin that cd. I’m pretty sure dat the cd wasn’t made specifically for you…lol. I’m not really concerned about how many records another M.C. makes. Ain’t like I’m the one gettin paid for it. And dat “funeral” joint is all jus for publicity, right before the album drop. I guess its ok for Game to do that, but when G-Unit does it, its fucked up all of a sudden?? Like I said, “Doctors Advocate” is gonna be tight……but 80 percent of that album is gonna be help from otha artist and producers. ……he jus provin that he can’t make a hit record by himself Jus like 50 said.

And Bra remember…..your opinion don’t mean shit ta nobody but ya self……more Real Talk

“Prospect”

The problem is with the lyrics and beats. He got the G-Unit machine behind him and these are the beats he gets??? YES people do want decent beats on a ALBUM (WHF??).

If I want to hear punch lines all day I can go down to the block and listen to other half ass rappers. If you gonna rap for a living you need to have some substance behind you music or hope for a “Laffy Taffy” track to make your album a hit. Banks has the same BORING..yes BORING flow on every track. You can bearly undertand his crap. That is why Banks flopped.

People say shit about Game…but when it comes to rap he killed anyone who has stepped up to battle….example is funeral where banks got KILLED on his own beat and did not respond worth shit. This is the same nigga who said “I dare niggas to come at me on the mixtapes now that my album about to come out”

That’s real talk…..

How bout all ya shut tha fuck up!?! Lol BWSGUNNER? Wut da hell you mean ain’t one good song on his album that people would listen to more than once?? How bout you jus speak fo ya self. Cuz Playboy 2 is fire, survivor is fire, Cake ben fire, Help is a tight track fo da ladies, dat joint wit Musiq Soulchild is tight, muthafuckin ” get CLAPPED” is straight hood, “Stranger” is some mo gangsta shit, One Night Stand is a deep song…..listen to wut he be sayin. “Gilmore’s” he spittin dat raw shit. Dat hands up shit ain’t a favorite but in da clubs da shit is tight. But I guess ya don’t kno shit bout clubs cuz ya be too buzy hatin on internet websites and shit. Haha……..fuckin lames…… Da problem wit most of ya is dat ya don’t pay more attention to the beats instead of lyrics. If Game album do sell, it will because he got a whole bunch of guest appearances and producers. All Game be doin is suckin niggas off and dependin on otha rappers to shine. If you were too take all the songs dat 50 cent produced or guest appeared in on the documentary, da shit would be garbage. But I’m not gonna hate, cuz “the doctors advocate” is gonna be tight. Not cuz he on it, but cuz of the guest appearances………I’m more focused on Jay-Z shit ta come out….REAL TALK

Learn to write before trying on holla at Tara….

Banks is an average rapper who had some success of the G-Unit hype on the frist album. He should be grateful and get out of rap andopen up a car wash like Rass Kass….that shit makes money!! Album deserved that poor reviews….

no doubt the album is better than most, but g-unit is not relevant anymore…when ya boss repeatedly gets called out people are goin to question him and the ppl around him. i think games influence(g-unot campaign ) was bigger than ppl took it for because all the albums after the massacre have flopped and unfortunately banks will be included in that. they need some new artists

Lloyd Banks new album is fire ! Only the true Banks fans are really gonna feel dis one. If you don’t have a patient ear for music, then I can understand why you didn’t like it. But for those who actually listened to the album more than once, ya should feel what I’m sayin. I’m not a hata, so I fucks wit G-Unit and Black Wallstreet. As long as they makin good music I can’t hate. Point Blank.. Playboy 2 is one my favorite joints on tha album.

Where as the sources she references are saying that Banks has lost “it”…I, on the other hand, think he never had “it” to begin with. I swear I never understood the hype about dude. His voice couldn’t BE more boring, his flow is contrived, and his punchlines are decent at best (with the exception of that blow-me-like-an-old-nintendo-game line…that was kinda ill). I swear the only reason 50 keeps him around is so that he himself wouldn’t have the most boring voice in G-Unit…lol.

And I’m getting tired of people lowering their standards and saying that anyone who criticizes is either a) hating or b) getting caught up in negative hype. I continue to uphold my standards as to what I think it good music (not “it’s not bad” music). I wish more people would do the same…maybe it’ll actually get some better music out of these “artists.”

‘Cake’ is so old, even though it’s a good reason why you can’t totally write off G-Unit’s ability to make quality street hop… but still, ‘Cake’ is a bite (no pun intended :) of Ghostface and Raekwon’s ‘Kilos’ and Lloyd Banks knows it!

“Not to mention a little Clipse. Jive, what’s up? Are you going to mess around and ruin my Christmas?”

SAY WORD, TARA.
Clipse got the illest bullets in the chamber, and nobody is pulling the trigger. They are right to proclaim to hate Jive “with all the passion in their heart and soul” LOL

the Clipse should have owned Halloween. Now they will have to wait til after the Hova/Nas onslaught to try get some sales… in December. Not a good look. Oh well, maybe it will be the last good crack-rap album of this era… then 2007 can finally be on some next shit in hip hop
