I like Lloyd Banks but why hasn't he made more albums? He hasn't released anything solo since October 2006, it's approaching 3 years now! 50 said after 'Before I Self Destruct' he's releasing a greatest hits album and then he's done, so why aren't they building Lloyd Banks to be the active face of G-Unit Records?

BANKS DOESNT HAVE THE charisma to be the face of g-unit...he always seems uncomfortable on camera

Mixtape banks was incredible
i dont think he has the work ethic/dedication/focus to b a real star. His music has declined so much, its unbeliavable. In fact, all g-unit music is **** now, they used to run the mixtape game.
If u dont know banks got dropped frm interscope records, so he's still with g-unit but i dont think he's contracted to release future albums with them.
He's shot. I dont think he's ever gna get back 2 wat he once was.
Bottom Line
Banks' mixtapes are pretty damn good...we can't say the same for his albums(at least not the last one)
He'll always be in 50's shadows...and he aint a loud dude so he gets little press
The Hood love Banks tho(South Jamaica) for the most part...they be bumpin his ****

If Banks ain't the one who's gonna pull the weight for G-Unit records once 50 steps aside, who is? I agree Banks has gone a bit downhill. 50 is the only one selling for them just now! Will G-Unit Records just fold up or will they find someone else coming up?

Yeah, Banks was probably the best out of the G-Unit mix. But honeslty I don't think it was so much about Hip hop with them. I think it was just a way to make money. 50 laid the ground work, got everyone out there in videos, mix tapes, on CD's, hed em yelling G-Unit hyped em' all up got em' all deals, everyone paid and then.... Nothing. 50's still doing his thing but everyone else, yeah, not so much.

did u just say he does have the work ethic, dedication or focus? the only reason he aint drop **** since 03 is because he lost tow important people in his life. i think his grandmother and pops died. Once he overcame that, he been dropping like crazy. Yall buggin. he is the reason G-Unit is still poppin. when the rick ross **** happened, Who killed it? Banks
