Yup I agree...
But his style & concepts is harder than Fab & Joe...dats what seperates him...But lyrically on da same level...yup

Budden got some dope concepts, but he's still wack. Fab doesn't really come with concepts, but he at least has enough charisma in his flow. I can't speak on Banks' concepts, because I've never heard any. All the tracks I've heard him on have been the same shoot em up bang bang style that Fab did before him.

His style doesn't appeal to people at all and he'll always stay in 50's shadow. :-\

Thats BS IMO......You could have said the same thing about 50 and look what happend...."50 wont blow up, his style doesnt appeal to people and he'll always stay in Eminems shadow"
HAHA Whatever ::)

Check his solo tracks, and mixtapes..
If Obie can do a solo on his own, Banks is 10 times better suited to do it.

Word.
Exactly what they said about 50.
Look at how that went.
And LoL @ the Fab/Budden comparisons..
The only similarity is that they're all from N.Y. and all hot on mixtapes.
Btw, Fabolous went platinum twice didn't he, with less skill and charisma than Banks.

One thing I can't say I've heard is a true Lloyd Banks solo song. That's what I'm waiting to hear, not just some freestyle over an instrumental or a remake.
And I think that the difference between Obie Trice and Banks is that Obie's got a nicer voice & delivery, and that's why I'd figure he'd be better at a solo album.

agreed...i would love to hear a true banks solo...as far as saying he wont blow up cuz his style doesnt appeal to everybody...are you crazy?...i've heard like 1 person say they werent feeling his style...and he cant live in 50's shadow if nobody knows hes in it in the first place...besides the true rap fans...if ppl just hear him on the radio nobody is gonna go "oh that dudes in with 50"...they havent promoted him at all...i think his success will depend on how they promote him...yes i think it will have a huge effect on his career if they promote him to be with 50 on everything...but if they say fuck 50 and just put out some solo shit...dont really mention 50 when they talk to him in interviews and shit...he'll do the same shit 50 did on a much deeper and better level.
