It's been a minute since we've heard new music from Lloyd Banks, but as the weather chills down and the hoodies go up, it's only right to play a new Banks tape through padded headphones. Halloween Havoc 2 shows Banks unassisted over beats by AraabMuzik, Tha Jerm and others, unpacking the on-brand menacing raps that Banks has delivered for over a decade. The original Halloween Havoc dropped in 2008.

The release comes with no word on Banks' impending Cold Corner 3. At a concert in New York City late this summer, Banks said the project would cost money, and that if he wasn't satisfied with the number of pre-orders, he would refrain from releasing. It's been a little while since that G-Unit reunion tour, but members of the group have been able to put out solid mixtapes.
