Also, if he is on the sideline isn't Drake also? How can u say Drake is "in the game" but Banks isn't. Drake got 1 mixtape that got attention. Thats why he has a buzz - a mixtape not an album. So why isn't Banks on that list? I just watched that Ebro dude and thought I'd ask you guys and ladies. What do you think?
Besides his Vol.4 was #1 on iTunes at one point and his diss record "Officer Down" was ahead of Rick Ross' "album single" at one point. So he still is making charts like an album would.
But then again what do I know... Is he one of the hottest in the game?
How can you compare a Rookie to a Veteran...All summer Lloyd Banks had been dropping mixed tapes like crazy. Drake has a nice sound but hes gonna have to be in the game a long time before he gets my respect
as a true veteran of Hip Hop. Stop being puppets and do the research for yourselves.
hell yeah, he heavy in the mixtape game, like GUCCI, Gucci aint put out an album in a minute but niggas consider him active, Banks is active wit mixtapes, on Thisis50, he's relevant, he's on the list isn't he??? He aint on no sideline, an example of a n**** on the sideline is Saigon, Bishop Lamont, Memphis Bleek, these are the type of niggas who drop a song every 6 months. Banks is gettin' busy, matter fact, where is that new Banks mixtape???
Still if Ross was truly the hottest MC then ANYTHING he touches should be a hit and sell but his group only did 200k, While Eminem did an Ep with Royce who is not mainstream relevant and sold 500k+. That stat there proves Ross does not have as big…
did ross really gross $46 million on tour in 2011/2012? hard to believe imo, even tho he might be one of the hottest rappers out now.
btw, that list is a joke. i know its mainly based on buzz, radio play, and album sales, but puttin nicki, wayne,…
