To all the people who keep saying he sound the same was never around during Blue Friday, Halloween havoc, & AON. Y’all just came back when y’all saw he dropped a album. The real supporters appreciate the craft. #PLK
They want melodies. Like, go listen to Drake then. The flows, bars, and delivery on this album are elite. And the beats are nice too. Return of masculine rap.
a 10/10 album. NY stand up!! Lloyd went crazy on this whole tape. This track is incredible. Def in the top 5 on the tape. Death By Design, Food, Falsified, C O T I, Drop 5, Dishonorable Discharge, Break Me Down are some of my favs. Formaldehyde too, and Early Exit. This is real hip hop.
I was 15 when I first heard banks. I'm now. 34. Of always went out and purchased his music. If I like an artist then I fully support them and purchase their album. Banks 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Swear 2 God banks was my favourite G-unit artist.
Have always went out not "off always went out " Please let's not kill the language. Older people like your parents , aunts/uncles, grandparents, etc have to speak the language too and they are not hip like you. Everything we do, we have to care about how it affects those people. They are the reason why we are here and why we are. And we also don't want to teach the present and future generations bad precipe.
Cannot state how much this album is appreciated. Been loving Lloyd Banks for almost 20 years since Mo Money in the bank pt 3: cashing in.. all of the old mixtapes from Datpiff. V5, V6, Cold Corner I & II, all 3 of the Halloween Havoc series, All or Nothin FNO & Live it Up. My playlists are packed full of his finest work from last decade & people still ask me for the song name or artist, most of his work was free too from Datpiff sponsored. It’s incredible to watch him aswell as producers like Doe Pesci & Tha Jerm all come a seriously long way and never stop honing the same craft that got them all of these REAL fans for this long.. I had a feeling this would be his Magnum Opus and I now believe it is, he has so many classic verses & deserves a very high mention on all credible lists of MCs.. Peace Love & Respect to all involved in the creation of this material.. Amazing show of loyalty from true fans of The PLK, Top 5 Dead or Alive Long Live Lloyd Banks
Fuck me . Best album since illmatic. Not 1 bad song of 18 tracks. Wtf. Sick. Picasso . Painting pictures. Like a fucking book. So menny methaphors and bars. Plk.we got you loyd. Classic album. No words.just. just just. Like a fucking explosion .sombody call the bomb sqaud.peace norway. We love you blue.
Banks returns insane acrobatic word smith flipping the game dissing these lames at the same time spitting p pane if the spot has been taken now its getting reclaim
"Take a walk through my catalog that nobody helped me design" I felt that. Banks been original from scratch, never sounded like nobody, never wave jumped.
And no ones every written so much as a letter nonetheless a word or bar for him, ever. He is the absolute GOAT. This album is his Goku Ultra instinct form, straight untouchable.
Nah he was on that 50 flow for a bit. But AS SOON AS HE GOT RID OF IT all of G unit was Hating. Hard to be a Symbol next too a Legend. Banks always Have all them niggas pressure instead of Hating they shoulda got the fuck out the way let him Shine. Sad
@@kingcain8296 He never had or was on “50s flow”. He’s always been original and had his own style, it evolved through out the years. I don’t know what you mean about g unit was hating on him if anything all members of gunit praise and respect banks even more so than 50.
@@AroTheWolf MORE SO THEN 50?! smh man this aint TMZ news or twitter Boss. Clearly Relax you have no clue what you talking On. Banks Been Voicing it in His Music alone. far before this Album Miss Me with the Fanboy shit
V6 was when you experienced the unpleasant realities of life and it shocked you. The All or Nothing Series was rebellion in the face of those challenges and when you were getting used to that shit. COTI represents experience, a solidified perspective and a balanced mentality. Each project of yours is a major chapter in your life. Only real fans know this and we understand it's why you take time between projects. Well done Banks. Your passion for music if enviable. Much love from an Australian Persian.
Banks out here spitting the hood bible. Between the metaphors, innuendos, double entendres with his slang and word choices, the man is an allegorical genius. People will one day praise this man the way they should.
Timeless Classic Album 💿 Hunger For More Always In My Top 5 Albums But I Think You Out Did It On This Project Sounds Like You Had More Control On This One I Hear 💯 Percent Banks 🏦 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Honestly can you think of 10 rappers that can pack their verses with multiple punchlines like this Unique dude. Often times I have to listen to his tracks and albums multiple times to get the whole idea and picture. Like a dictionary , you feel you have to view it quite a lot of times to get the whole picture. That alone speaks genius. Most great rappers add a few punchlines in their tracks, adding other things to make it complete. Lloyd Banks completes his track or tracks by making sure every line of his isn't wasted. How does he do it ? Well he makes sure that every line is impactive. Like a guy making sure his every dollar counts. Ever seen a Christopher Nolan movie ? Well Lloyd Banks is the Christopher Nolan of Rap.
The absolute greatest of all time, I have been a fan since a child and know 90 plus percent of his catalogue word for word. I’m glad the world is realizing what I knew as a kid and then as an adult. No one even comes close to blue.
Yo this is a song THE NOTORIOUS B.I.G WOULD HAVE LOVED IF HE WAS STILL HERE!.. LLOYD BANKS U GREAT KING!. AND THANK YOU FOR THIS ALBUM!, ITS HELPING ME IN PERSONAL THINGS IM EXPERIENCING RIGHT NOW!.. CLASSIC ALBUM
"Rare that I speak on y'all rather I not be mentioned either, you run to the internet wit ya issues you're an attention seeker, never laid shit down for me covered expenses either, that's when blue came in showin love's an expensive teacher, money involved people will flip flop on you Gucci style, you shit all on me keep that same energy when truth comes out" 🗣️🔥
I've always wondered what was up with Banks,first album fire,this is a lyrical genius,I just took the time to listen to this whole album and I will say it again, lyrical genius,never disappoints!!Do ya thang Banks!!! Number 1 album in the game!!
Banks always got me doing the sour face. Highly underrated how he's not talked about being one of the greatest hip hop artists of all time is beyond me.
This is hella inspiration for me. Like you was destined to make this for certain people out here going through it. Some of us needed to hear this album to move to the next level. Thanks Banks! 💯
"Dont follow nobody else's figure out which path is yours, cuz lights go off"
Real shit.
Lowkey this might be the best song on the album.....
