January 16, 2008. MediaTakeOut.com has learned that the 2008 G-Unit budget came out - and word is that two of its top acts are not getting any funding. A person claiming to be familiar with the new budget told us, "With the cuts, tough choices had to be made. And Lloyd Banks and Mobb Deep projects have to be shelved ... I don't think that they'll be officially 'dropped,' but they won't be getting much label support either."
But other G-Unit artists are safe. The purported insider explained to MediaTakeOut.com, "Young Buck and Tony Yayo are expected to release albums in 2008."
With all that's going on with Prodigy, we understand shelving Mobb Deep, but what's up with Banks????
-
mobb deep are now tainted forever guilty by affliation........thay should of stayed indi
-
Maybe Banks still has to prove himself..
But if Dude gets dropped that would be bad..
Hopefully he does go the obvious route and team up with 50's so-called enemies..
-
I thought Mobb move some units? Maybe Em should look at dropping 50, he didn't move near enough units last LP.
-
Bank$ is wack

can totally see mobb gettin dropped, but not banks at all.
-
they should just stick with trying to be the ghetto version of TMZ instead of trying to report exclusive hip hop news....
-
ssup with prodigy? what do you mean?
-
Mediatakeout is becoming more reliable, like it or not. This probably is true. Mobb Deep flopped and have been just hanging around since then. And it really seems like 50 and Banks don't like each other.
-
I bet he drops Mobb Deep but I would be extremely surprised to see him drop Banks also.

Isn't 50 Cent supposed to have like 200 million dollars? How much would it cost to "fund" a Banks album? 500,000$? He can't fund one of his child hood friends and a key member of G-Unit? Gimme a break. Banks, Buck and 50 are G-Unit. Yayo can go, Mobb Deep can go, Olivia and all those other crappy artists can go. But if Banks leaves, G-Unit is over.
The fact is, Beg for Mercy was a pretty good album. Banks Buck and 50 have good chemistry. Release another G-Unit group album with just those 3.
50 Cent screwed Banks and Buck, because he over saturated the market with bullshit artists. Olivia, Mobb Deep, and all those other rumors of signing other artists pissed people off. They devoted too much time to other artists.

Yo, the facts are this:
Buck and Banks both got the same amount of promotion.
Buck did reaaaally well with his album. It was a good joint.
Banks' shit was _OKAY_. I'm not underrating it either.
Buck started his own label, signed the outlawz, and is on the mixtape scene dropping shit. Trying to start making his OWN money.
Where has Banks been, he aint on any features, he's not popping with his own ventures... He's just making money off touring...
I would drop Banks over Buck if I had to. And that is the only choice, MOP and Spider aren't even on the "payroll". Mobb are finished cuz Prodigy got fucked. Yayo is 50's best friend/hypeman so that ain't happening.
This is for budgets, not being removed from the label. Remember that.

I think he meant that as in he believes the rumours regarding Mobb Deep, but not regarding Banks. I frankly don't care who 50 drops, but keeping wack ass Yayo and dropping Banks just sounds like a bitch move, childhood friends or not. If he's loyal to Yayo, he should keep Banks too
Anyways, what's P going to jail for? Not keeping up with that type of news...just happy that didn't happen like in '97 when he was still a decent rapper :D

He's on to something here, yes.

I didn't really follow this much either, but I remember it being about him being in possession of a gun this summer. From what I heard, he was lucky to get a light sentence because this wasn't his first offence.
It's too bad.... Prodigy's last solo album wasn't great and Blood Money really sucked. I had a feeling that Mobb Deep's next album would be their comeback, whether or not they had G-Unit behind them or not.
