@@Andrew-ir7yf haha yea man, it’s from 50 Cents new book. I actually recently did an animated video of the first chapter. If you check on my channel, scroll down a few videos and it will be there.

Sounds like fif couldnt oicture banks on his level if fif compared the two grinds they had. But banks is neck and neck fif put in more work but banks right there!!!!! Fif tripping
That’s not how I interpreted this AT ALL lol. Man y’all have bad listening/reading comprehension and critical thinking skills. I really wish they taught that more in public schools. So many of you are beyond horrendous at those things smh
That doesn't sound like what 50 was saying at all. Introverted and cocky at the same time is not humble. It's more like you expect people to bow down to you without having to work for it. It's like a stuck up bitch that has no personality.
Yeah the vibe i got from Banks is he never cared to try and be the center of attention because he was confident in himself and his abilities. He never had a “hey look at me!” moment
Banks and Takeoff were similar artists. They did what they had to do and faded off into the background. You could tell after an huge event, they just wanted to go home/hotel and chill while everyone else wanted to rub elbows with a bunch of weirdos and opportunists.
@@dillionwon6587 And that's where the similarities stop. No offense to Takeoff RIP, but Banks is only above average and Takeoff was WAAAAY below that lyrically.
I can relate to Banks, he prefers the background not the spotlight. That's something Fif can't understand and i don't think Banks is lazy, he's just comfortable with doing enough and being ok enough. Fif has motivations of ruling the world, Banks just wants to enjoy it.
Crazy to think that 100,000$ a month only totals 1.2 million a year. Them dudes that make over 10 million a year are pulling close to a million per month 🤦🏼♂️ ridiculous to think about
"Big fish in a small pond" is real. I used to feel like the man beating all of my little cousins in Street Fighter and then I went out to one of those tournaments with them raw ass Asians and got served and was hella mad lmaoo The amount of people hung up on the word "raw" is concerning. Mind out of the gutter people! I'm an 80s baby!
Fr tho I used to be the Tekken master in my neighborhood nobody could mess with me. Then I played against a 15 yr kid who just won a local Tourney man that kid wiped the floor wit my ass then he passed the sticks to his homies who came in 2nd and 3rd and they beat my ass
@@kennethwilliams8240 If Banks feels successful, how YOU gonna tell him he isn't?? Everyone got their own perspective on what success is or looks like. Just like what you may deem as real, I may not see it the same way and vice versa. Your definition of REAL might not be MY definition of REAL. Simples
Exactly the response I expect to hear from a ni**a in the south bronx. Always good for defending broke behavior lol. I know this cuz I’m from the Bronx(Soundview). He didn’t need to change cuz 50 wanted him too, he needed to change to have a better life as a man. 50 is still making multi million dollar money moves doing other sh!t, while Banks is living off royalty checks and shows at hole in the wall clubs. Sometimes you should listen to another man, especially if he is significantly more accomplished than you. Most successful people wouldn’t even waste they time doing that much for you. The Game is usually sold and not told.
Prodigy said the same thing. Plus this wasn't about why G Unit fell off, this section not the book if I recall was about motivation of the people around you. How Jimmy birthed Dre, Dre birthed Em, Em Birthed 50, but 50 tried to birth Yayo or Banks, but Yayo couldn't capitalize on and already built in fan base, and Lloyd was well lazy.
Being a friend or enemy of this guy is pretty much the same. You’re inevitably going to have a falling out with him and he will end up talking down on you in some way.
Or you can look at it on a deeper level bruva. It’s very lonely at the top. Meaning it’s extremely hard to grow to a certain level without losing touch with the people u knew prior. Jay Z doesn’t roll with any of the people that he did 30yrs ago, 20yrs ago, or even 10yrs ago. And he’s also had falling outs with many of the people he was once associated with. It’s completely apart of the process of growing. Most people that you were good to roll with while u were on the come up, are not gonna be fit to deal with the evolved version of you. Especially when they don’t come even close to matching your ambition and drive. Highly ambitious people like 50 dont ever blend well with people who are satisfied with the basics. They are like oil and water. Banks was satisfied with having money and being a respected lyricist.
You just aren’t made from the same fabric as him that’s why you don’t get what he’s saying. He’s a self made millionaire that literally came from the gutter, you’re probably still enjoying mama’s breakfast.
@@ellisholmes9110 you can speak the truth to their faces which im sure he did and kept it behind the scenes like some things should be. This information wasn't interview or book worthy.
Nobody lazy could drop some of the bars Banks dropped over the decades. It takes mental energy to piece those bars together. I think he was more of a perfectionist that was content with being wealthy and not motivated by building empires.
keep house business in the house 50. don't kick your dirty laundry all in the street... don't forget who you ate with in the beginning... that's house business...
For real bro. Most ppl tend to forget that during that G ubit mixtapes era, 50 might have been the coordinator but Banks being the true lyricist that he is spearheaded that group into 50's superstardom. Everything before G unit was cool but those mixtapes are timeless mainly because of Banks. 50 hates not having attention.
And that's a good point, a feeling!!! But that's exactly ALL it ought 2 be... Actually though I gotta say Fif - Banks is and always seemed 2 be absolutely confident in a room full of MC's period!!! Cuz he knows not only can he very much hold his own on the mic with the best of 'em, but using his particular trademark multi-syllable/punchline schemes there honestly ain't many cats I wouldn't throw him in a room with ~ battle or cypher, period!!!!
Yall weird, if given up yo cheeks is the reason for 50Cent success why he got Blæc balled out the music Business by interscop? Why no other artists is successful than him.
@@uncclelocc This is the way the public can feel less bad about there 9-5's and not becoming a multimillionaire and having a legacy to leave behind. They say "Oh well he had gay sex, if thats what it takes, you can keep it!" When in reality no one said, or was thinking about that gay ass shit until they spoke.
All just to sell his book, he talked down on Ja Rule which I can understand, as they had a beef, but Banks is your boy, talked down on Prodigy who just happened to fell off but a better rapper than he is and even Tupac that he doesn't even know, like they've never hang out for him to have an opinion about the life of someone who died decades ago..
I remember when Banks went to August Martin High School wit my older cousins back in like 2000. He was quiet even as an older teen, but even when he blew up, he came to the hood wit his chains on n rock wit all of us outside(I was 15). I never seen 50 do that, and even back in 05-06, the streets took 50's pass from coming back and he never came back around til Silverbacks were disappearing. I could understand why Banks wasn't gaining the light like 50, but 50 is forcing him to be outgoing like him. Banks have more albums than 50, more solidified mixtapes etc. Call him lazy, but 50 fell off as a musician and struggle to make something of his own.
Honestly 50 should have just kept this to himself or at a interview at a radio station. I get it, 50 just keeping it real, but he, Lloyd and Yayo go way back were like brothers, and were like brothers in the industry. Some stuff should simply stay in private especially when it's family business.
@@johnnorwood5474 50 cent has said this multiple times about banks banks knows this and probably doesn’t care. I felt this way about banks before I heard 50 say it
@@fly3xzistence Back up what you said...like the other guy asked, what's so real about Banks? Is there something real about not wanting to make money out of your music by being lazy?
50 is wrong for talking negatively about Banks. Everyone can't be like you, that's like Jay Z or Diddy saying 50 is lazy because he hasn't achieved a Billionaire status.
Not negative, it's the truth. He didn't put the work in to stay relevant despite the talent he had, he only drops mixtapes to nobody, nobody knows he even put something out because he never promotes it. He doesn't make any other moves either. Not talking negatively, just telling the truth. 50 never said he's a bad rapper who couldn't make it in the game, it's just that he chose not to put the work to do it and it is hard work, 50 spent more time working with Banks when you never met the man so he's well placed to make this point. At least 50's ALWAYS trying to make more money and do more moves, that's why he's still relevant despite moving away from the music a little, Banks just drops random mixtapes and that's it. Nothing.
Around 2007 Coca cola bought Vitamins and 50 got paid 100 million and around 2015 his networth was around 155 million. Presently 50's networth is 40 million, so have you seen Banks constantly talking about 50's networth depreciation. What I'm saying is simple "judge not, that ye be not judged".
Fair but he also always had weaker bars than Banks. He may have been lazy but on the rare occasions Banks got to work he let people know why he's the PLK
Lmaoo socially intelligent? Nigga doesnt care about the limelight, back then they would say they wouldnt see banks for 2 weeks sometimes while be at 50 mansion just how he is
@El Deez N the occasions weren't that rare. Banks got a nice catalog outside of the major label releases. He was goin hard on mixtapes for a good while after all the Beg For Mercy and Hunger For More shit.
“Banks is a sure thing. Y’all niggas might blow.” 50 had really high expectations for him, and is disappointed that Banks didn’t meet them. That line shows he had a lot of faith in him.
He did, I went back and listened to his book, and he basically wanted yayo and banks to take off, and become big artist outside of himself. His plan from what he said was to take a back seat to them, and in a way that’s how I felt watching them back then. When it was their album 50 hopped on songs for them and helped push them. Banks became a success in a way, but nowhere near what he could have. In a way yayo too.
50. Im from South Jamaica Queens and we deal with these things in private yo. You outta pocket. The man is a G Unit member and helped you make history. Respect him enough to tell him these things in private. Let Love prevail not arrogance.
How do you know these things weren't dealt with in private? This is basically just explaining his life and why his relationships are where they are with the people around him. Also This is someone using a computer generated 50 Cent voice to read sections of his book/text. This aint even really 50 talking fam.
The more I watch these clips of 50 the more I realize that while he might be a smart businessman, he's extremely selfish and an awful friend. He doesn't really care about others, he only sees them as a tool to earn more money from. Banks isn't lazy, he's just happy with his achievements and isn't greedy. That's what really annoys 50. He can't use him for his own benefit.
He payed Tony Yayo for every show G Unit did even while Yayo was in prison. Yayo came out of prison to 1 mil in the bank. 50 is ride or die for those that are ride or die for him. But you can't ever not be ride or die with fif not even for a second lol
He's disillusioned... Did u ever think of that? He wanted Yayo to be the next 50 Cent... Again another let down. It just so happens that this hustla got more ambition than they do.... All he wanted was more for them. In fact, he coddled them so much that's why they were outta control with a diminished work ethic...
I don’t agree I feel like after Lloyd Banks first album everything he did after that was not the same or on the same level as his first album I always said for years that I felt like something was off with Lloyd Banks and people disagreed with me and told me I was a hater it’s funny though listening to 50 Cent talk about his character I was absolutely right Lloyd Banks was lazy. He didn’t understand anything. He didn’t understand that he was in a position to become a better MC he had a hood mentality that he couldn’t be taken out of unfortunately just not a very smart dude when it comes down to it without trying to disrespect him.
If he got pass billionaire status I wouldn’t be surprised if he start to bash Dre and Em. The guy sucks, changes up on his people every time he levels up
Right! Everybody isn't meant to be a 10-year multi platinum mainstream artist. Far as I see it, Bank$ has had a great career, and still puts out heat whenever he decides to come outside and rap.
@@ericthered1140 broke? Lol banks is worth 10 million.your no where near that level to even be calling someone broke you sound like a hater.lil durk and nba youngboy the 2 biggest hardest in hip hop rn are worth 6 and 8 million lol are you dumb? And that’s him just chilling and living off his old money cause he always was smart with his money and still tours here and there.he had and still has a solid career.he could have been on 50cent level or even bigger yea but he laid back and doesn’t want to be known for nothing more then his pen game.idk why 50 says he lazy that boy has a catalog of legendary mixtapes and solid platinum albums and the numbers he did back then are more then your favorite artist of today.put some respect on his name.
"If I showed up he'd feel like he got demoted." That's on you 50, that's the G-Unit dynamic you created. If 50 walked into a studio where Lloyd and a bunch of unknown MC's were and he didn't fall back 50 would have just ramped up his pettiness. They all knew it, as the entire world does now.
Man none of y'all fucking paid attention none to do with 50 pettiness not da first time he called Banks lazy now he wanna come back to music I like Banks but nobody fishing for dude 50 literally makes key points y'all truly miss and think he's being messy I can tell y'all comprehension skills are low when it comes to just fucking listing probably can't even read well 🤣🤣🤣 goofy asses missed the whole point 🤦🏿♂️
50 is 100% Correct, when that victory freestyle dropped Banks was on top of the world ppl was talking about him like he was 50 so to let the opportunities slip like that is on him
Man I use to play that song 🎶 victory ,when I play against my boys on “N.B.A streets”… MAN! That’s the song to get you pump and you feel you will see “victory!”
50 didnt want them to sign at different labels, he wanted all of them to sign with one label. They all looked at 50 as the leader, so they wouldn't have wanted to be on their own.
@@LongLiveJoseph facts and start it up, any girl, so forgetful, i dont deserve.. then street shit like Unexplainable, Home sweet home, Payback to introspective shit like Where Im at, Sooner or Later, Father Time
I think 50 is a good leader.. he put all those dudes in position.. none of them really had the drive to match his tho.. he's the type to tell you what you don't wanna hear.. that's a powerful trait
@@samgunz1 nah hes a good manipulator and businessman lol im a big day 1 50 fan but I see also the type to bash publicly and place blame then take credit conveniently.. G unit reunion was happening without him before summer jam reunion, he saw that and made it seem as if he was the reason.. or when he was beefing with all the hot artists and g unit artists sales were dropping he blamed his artists publicly on 106 rather than highlighting all music was and that he was turning off a lot of people at once… his sales end up dropping too. Ross and Wayne are examples of good leaders they’ll bring up their artists highlights to overwrite any of their mishaps or mistakes
He's speaking facts if you look at each individual you see exactly what he's saying and for the record he never spoke about Yayo in this way because Tony is a real G!

Most ppl tend to forget that during that G ubit mixtapes era, 50 might have been the coordinator but Banks being the true lyricist that he is spearheaded that group into 50's superstardom. Everything before G unit was cool but those mixtapes are timeless mainly because of Banks. 50 hates not having attention.
That’s a real Big Brother vs Little Brother feeling
right, the rest of these people dont understand that lol
And that's a good point, a feeling!!! But that's exactly ALL it ought 2 be... Actually though I gotta say Fif - Banks is and always seemed 2 be absolutely confident in a room full of MC's period!!! Cuz he knows not only can he very much hold his own on the mic with the best of 'em, but using his particular trademark multi-syllable/punchline schemes there honestly ain't many cats I wouldn't throw him in a room with ~ battle or cypher, period!!!!

@@uncclelocc This is the way the public can feel less bad about there 9-5's and not becoming a multimillionaire and having a legacy to leave behind.

Damn! Not "Lazy Lloyd"
Not everyone wants that life, a person like 50 would never understand that.
50 funny as fuck 😂💯 I know he dead serious too
Banks is my nigga. No matter what! South side Jamaica QUEENS. G-UNIT
That’s why you should always be mindful of who’s watching, and what you show them.
50 is a well versed man,and he's very articulate, and speaks well I always pay attention to what he's talking about.
50 is a narcissist. He speaks about everybody this way but himself

And what's the truth?
Banks is lyrically light years ahead of 50.
50 can right hooks, songs, etc…
But banks is very lyrical.
OK. But 50 is speaking the truth now. I know people just like banks.
@@charleslavoie5402 where did he go with the lyrics. He was lazy
Truth is banks would be working at Popeyes if it wasn't for 50
Wow, a strong, scpecific and concise psycho analysis of Lloyd's character...
Guess things and aspirations swing all ways and people make choices.. 🤔
Yet you just assassinated his Character.
Nope
All just to sell his book, he talked down on Ja Rule which I can understand, as they had a beef, but Banks is your boy, talked down on Prodigy who just happened to fell off but a better rapper than he is and even Tupac that he doesn't even know, like they've never hang out for him to have an opinion about the life of someone who died decades ago..
I remember when Banks went to August Martin High School wit my older cousins back in like 2000. He was quiet even as an older teen, but even when he blew up, he came to the hood wit his chains on n rock wit all of us outside(I was 15). I never seen 50 do that, and even back in 05-06, the streets took 50's pass from coming back and he never came back around til Silverbacks were disappearing. I could understand why Banks wasn't gaining the light like 50, but 50 is forcing him to be outgoing like him. Banks have more albums than 50, more solidified mixtapes etc. Call him lazy, but 50 fell off as a musician and struggle to make something of his own.
Facts
Banks is the dopest one out of G-unit including 50. And banks is still dropping heat
50 said this in his book. Banks was also anti social media and didn't want to get involved in the new wave.
Honestly 50 should have just kept this to himself or at a interview at a radio station. I get it, 50 just keeping it real, but he, Lloyd and Yayo go way back were like brothers, and were like brothers in the industry. Some stuff should simply stay in private especially when it's family business.
Agreed, when you correct someone close it should be in private. This is destructive not constructive.
This isn't 50 saying this. Don't be deceived it's voice bot software
50 should have kept this behind the scenes period. Not at no radio station either

Facts !!!
That’s not bashing that’s speaking facts in real life
50 is wrong for talking negatively about Banks. Everyone can't be like you, that's like Jay Z or Diddy saying 50 is lazy because he hasn't achieved a Billionaire status.
Not negative, it's the truth. He didn't put the work in to stay relevant despite the talent he had, he only drops mixtapes to nobody, nobody knows he even put something out because he never promotes it. He doesn't make any other moves either. Not talking negatively, just telling the truth. 50 never said he's a bad rapper who couldn't make it in the game, it's just that he chose not to put the work to do it and it is hard work, 50 spent more time working with Banks when you never met the man so he's well placed to make this point. At least 50's ALWAYS trying to make more money and do more moves, that's why he's still relevant despite moving away from the music a little, Banks just drops random mixtapes and that's it. Nothing.
Around 2007 Coca cola bought Vitamins and 50 got paid 100 million and around 2015 his networth was around 155 million. Presently 50's networth is 40 million, so have you seen Banks constantly talking about 50's networth depreciation. What I'm saying is simple "judge not, that ye be not judged".
The nigga is lazy cuz he’s lazy. His last album came out 11 years ago
I mean even tho he not a billionaire look at how much my nigga doing he bout to have his own channel soon he the hip hop Tyler Perry
50 has him down to a tee. Very socially intelligent man. That always strikes me with him.
Fair but he also always had weaker bars than Banks. He may have been lazy but on the rare occasions Banks got to work he let people know why he's the PLK
Lmaoo socially intelligent? Nigga doesnt care about the limelight, back then they would say they wouldnt see banks for 2 weeks sometimes while be at 50 mansion just how he is
@griffindault What I don't get is why he didn't have him down to an tee before the money and the fame
@@griffindault Facts
@El Deez N the occasions weren't that rare. Banks got a nice catalog outside of the major label releases. He was goin hard on mixtapes for a good while after all the Beg For Mercy and Hunger For More shit.
Boi I tell u 50 be throwing shots like a mf 😂
This book is free to listen to on RUclips. 50 narrates it.
Hustle Harder Hustle Smarter.
“Banks is a sure thing. Y’all niggas might blow.” 50 had really high expectations for him, and is disappointed that Banks didn’t meet them. That line shows he had a lot of faith in him.
He did, I went back and listened to his book, and he basically wanted yayo and banks to take off, and become big artist outside of himself. His plan from what he said was to take a back seat to them, and in a way that’s how I felt watching them back then. When it was their album 50 hopped on songs for them and helped push them. Banks became a success in a way, but nowhere near what he could have. In a way yayo too.
@@Dizzinator2114 and 50 tried for so long to carry all of it and give them so much that I think he finally just broke.
Banks did blow realistically
So what some people don't want the lights and the fame and b.s 59 need to work on getting better writers for his boo boo show
I just want the money, yall can have the fame- Lloyd Banks. Propane
50. Im from South Jamaica Queens and we deal with these things in private yo. You outta pocket. The man is a G Unit member and helped you make history. Respect him enough to tell him these things in private. Let Love prevail not arrogance.
50 is a narcissist, all he does is gaslight others.
*●50 cent is an utter clown●*
@@wesley4824 he is also Freemason and he knows better
How do you know these things weren't dealt with in private? This is basically just explaining his life and why his relationships are where they are with the people around him.
Also This is someone using a computer generated 50 Cent voice to read sections of his book/text. This aint even really 50 talking fam.
This isn't private.
Lazy Lloyd is a sick tattoo 😂
Banks got more bars that 50 Cent punch lines crazy
That AI voice be scary asf these days.
Nah this is 50 reading his own book
cringe
50 cent just described me 😂😂
Me too
Banks was literally the best lyricist out of all of g-unit especially 50….he tried it!!!
50 cent is being real.... Banks was the better lyricist but his laziness held him back.
The more I watch these clips of 50 the more I realize that while he might be a smart businessman, he's extremely selfish and an awful friend. He doesn't really care about others, he only sees them as a tool to earn more money from. Banks isn't lazy, he's just happy with his achievements and isn't greedy. That's what really annoys 50. He can't use him for his own benefit.
He payed Tony Yayo for every show G Unit did even while Yayo was in prison. Yayo came out of prison to 1 mil in the bank. 50 is ride or die for those that are ride or die for him. But you can't ever not be ride or die with fif not even for a second lol
@@user-yf2fr2dw2b yes 50 was 💯 loyal to Tony yayo and vice versa but that's about it
On point my friend
He's disillusioned... Did u ever think of that? He wanted Yayo to be the next 50 Cent... Again another let down.
It just so happens that this hustla got more ambition than they do....
All he wanted was more for them.
In fact, he coddled them so much that's why they were outta control with a diminished work ethic...
“ I ain’t new to this I met this air stewardess” was a dope ass rhyme, buck went IN
50 sounding like an audiobook
I put Lloyd's rotten apple cd right next to 50's get rich or die tryin... both are amazing cds and I love Lloyd's flow it's smooth as fuck
Didn't 50 say he wrote most of everybody's lyrics? Cuz i know he wrote for Diddy and other big names in the industry before the fame

I don’t agree I feel like after Lloyd Banks first album everything he did after that was not the same or on the same level as his first album I always said for years that I felt like something was off with Lloyd Banks and people disagreed with me and told me I was a hater it’s funny though listening to 50 Cent talk about his character I was absolutely right Lloyd Banks was lazy. He didn’t understand anything. He didn’t understand that he was in a position to become a better MC he had a hood mentality that he couldn’t be taken out of unfortunately just not a very smart dude when it comes down to it without trying to disrespect him.

"If I showed up he'd feel like he got demoted." That's on you 50, that's the G-Unit dynamic you created. If 50 walked into a studio where Lloyd and a bunch of unknown MC's were and he didn't fall back 50 would have just ramped up his pettiness. They all knew it, as the entire world does now.
Preach brother preach ,banks is not that kinda energy, pettiness, mischievous,always belittling ppl, and banks the only lyricist in G-unit
It's why The Game had beef with him. Game was not falling back for him and 50 hated that
