• “Start It Up” With Lloyd Banks & Co.

  10.07.10 | No Comments

  

  Lloyd Banks’ next project is Hunger For More 2 and is stated as containing more than a handful of features. Don’t know how good of a thing it is if he wants to be the highlight of the album. Well the G-Unit and the G.O.O.D. Music forces unite (Kanye West, Ryan Leslie, Swizz Beatz and Fabolous) on the first single from the album entitled “Start It Up.”

  The Cardiak-produced track sounds like it could be a G.O.O.D. Friday release or just a plain spin-off from West’s weekly tradition. Lloyd Banks is a great rapper and definitely hold his own on his own track but a great deal of you probably only rushed to listen to this because of the other features.

• G.O.O.D. Friday Saturday: Kanye West On That “Christian Dior Denim Flow”

  10.02.10 | 1 Comment

  

  Literally speaking, Kanye West went through with putting a halt on G.O.O.D. Friday. However, he still did deliver new music this morning, so I guess you can call today G.O.O.D. Saturday. The latest to be released is “Christian Dior Denim Flow.” As usual the song is another dynamic one from West with beat switch ups and a handful of features including KiD CuDi, Pusha T, John Legend, Ryan Leslie and Lloyd Banks.

• Lloyd Banks Has the Formula for Urban Bangas

  With Lloyd Banks’ “Beamer, Benz or Bentley” lighting up all the urban clubs and just becoming an all around urban he’s released the next future hit, “Got Em Like.”

  Two in a row huh, Banks knows what makes the clubs and radios bump. The production is hype and his lyrical flow is fly making for some sizzlin’ music. If this is a sign for what his upcoming album will sound like then we’re behind it.

• The Next Urban Club Hit: Beamer, Benz or Bentley

  02.05.10 | 2 Comments

  

  Every so often there comes along an urban song with lots of bass and a catchy hook with lyrics about all things materialistic and superficial. That song usually goes on to be a radio hit and flood the speakers of many clubs. Our nominee for the next one is “Beamer, Benz or Bentley” by Lloyd Banks featuring Juelz Santana.

  First and foremost, it’s always the instrumental that makes the song and this song has a slammin’ beat. Next, is the stream of shallow lyrics; this song definitely has a shallow meaning. Lastly it’s the swag style of the rapper to carry the song and Banks carries the song well. Are y’all ready to bounce?
