Personnaly I feel for him mature as an artist he needs to leave fif.he has so much raw potential but its squandered becaused 50 will never let him be bigger then him.banks can spit with the best of them when he wants.lately him and 50 don't even seem close anyways.I can just imagine banks going solo having an album with beats by oremo and hi tek you can't tell me that wouldn't be fire
-
I felt the same thing after he did his verse on the touch it remix where he was 2nd best in that song. Leave G Unit. MJB no.1 in that remix.
-
but who will ghostwrite 50's shit?
-
A 14 year old with a rhyming dictionary
-
he should leave
-
we wouldnt even know who Banks is without G-Unit & i would say he would be nothing if he left, imo.
-
To use an example we wouldn't know who mystikal was if it wasn't for no limit.but once he left and had freedom to do his own shit he got a lot bigger and better.yes we know banks because of the unit but if he had free reign to do what he wanted he would be better.we all know 50s ego won't let anyone be on his level of fame.just ask game.
-
Besides 50 Cent, G-Unit has pretty much gone down the drain since Young Buck left. Lloyd Banks used to be nice on the mic in the early G-Unit and Green Lantern mixtape days and on 'The Hunger For More'.
-
does it really matter ? his career is over who the fuck is really checking for Lloyd banks these days :-\ if it was'nt for 50 this nigga would be in the where are they now file
-
in all honesty i don't think he will make it anywhere else
-
He needs to leave. He looks more like another 50 sidekick then his own artist these days
-
Banks was so raw at the start on the early mixtapes but really struggles when it comes to engaging tracks.
Classic Lloyd Banks - Banks Victory

He gets tons of hate simply for the fact that's he's with 50.as soon as buck left g unit all the 50 haters were all over buck saying oh I always liked him blah blah blah.I mean not everyone but a fair number.its that double edged sword of being presented by another artist.sure your garaunteed a few sales just through association but your also denyting a huge number of sales of people that dislike your presentor.

well besides Soulja Boy; 50 Cent is the most hated artist, imo.
so anyone accociated with him is going to recieve hate (I.E. Tony Yayo).
-
I think yayo pretty much is a glorified weed carrier but he's not the worst rapper in the world like some would claim.I mean uncle murder is just as bad

i dont think Yayo is as bad as he is acclaimed to be; but Uncle Murda is awesome, you dont like him?
-
He's ok but he's nothing special he's just a mixtape rapper to me

Yeah but where is Buck's career? He's not in a better place now. If Banks left he'd be no better off. At least with 50 and Interscope they get the chance to make albums, even though their all dead sales wise anyways. G-Unit had a ton of hits like "Hands up" and "Get up" and other shit that should of blown up. But no one cares anymore. All people are about is Kanye trying to sing, TI doing sappy chick songs, and Lil Wayne sounding like a down syndrome monkey. 50 won't sell shit even if he releases his best material. Groupies have ruined music. Game fans not buying 50's shit, 50's fans not buying Game's, basically killed their sales. Game can't go plat, 50 can barely go plat. It's fucked!
-
Bucks where he's at because he's a loose canoon doesn't know how to do business does a lot of drugs I mean should I go on?bucks a good artist but he has no concept of business
-
Its a two way...
I agree that now more than ever he looks like a 50 sidekick, and would like to see him leave...
But if he left, he wouldn't be getting paid, his albums wont have the production, no one would be hearing him etc...basically his commercial career will go down....Look at J-Hood for example....although banks is more established, this is kinda what will happen to him imo.
Plus 50 needs Banks for when hes beefing and needs a punchliner to ride for him.....Yayo can't rap for shit, Buck gone...Though I think Banks does seem unhappy where he is, like if he spoke his mind, we all know what will happen (Buck).
Who knows, if he did, and keep up his mixtape buzz, and get the right deal, perhaps his wouldn't be as commercial, but a lot better music probably.
-
I mean theirs been a lot of rumours of him going to def jam and that would be a great fit for him.I'd like def jam to get back to their new York roots and out of this southern r and b label they have become
-
He just doesnt sound as hungry as he used to. I remember him jumping on every remix and killing the mixtape scene. Didnt he win best newcomer at the 2003 Justo Mixtape Awards?
