Banks is my favorite mc out so my opinion is biased but honestly i get why people say his voice change but still I don't think that take's away from his skills. Cold corner 2 was piff!!!! His voice didnt sound bad in none except Joke's on You. Banks only improves he's lurking everything he's dropped. But like I said I'm biased :yeshrug:

Banks was too dope back in the day. He got better tho, the problem was that G-unit as a whole fell off, so people werent really taking him seriously. Technically Banks is a better rapper now than back then

That's bullshyt though, cos I don't care who fell off, his voice got unlistenable.

Never heard someones voice change that much if they wasn't trying to change it on purpose.

you missed the point of the thread like the avg rap fan who don't understand the technicalities of making music. Obviously duke wasn't talking about his bars, charisma =/= bars.

His charisma and vocals did go down as the years go by.

Y'all sound like dudes who interested in the swag more than the music. Only things that changed are the "in ya face" delivery was subbed out for a more laid back one (to match his true persona), and his voice got a little bit more raspier (think 50 after power of the dollar & GRODT).

Personally, I like the new Banks, "charisma" and all. To me, he exemplifies a man who's been through pain in life (mom & pops dying in same year) and you can see it IN THE MUSIC as well as outside.
