Is this mixed better than the last one?

Seriously boggles my mind that any professional rapper would release some official shyt that sounded that bad

Yes people say it is better than last one but also say it still could be mixed better...Last project he was fully independent this project he is indi but signed to Empire...

But that's the thing though even random folks on Soundcloud had better sounding shyt than that and Lloyd is somebody that's been in the industry for 2 decades and knows legit folks. That shyt sounded like a rip of a 2006 YouTube rip

He had no label no distribution no publishing in 2021 I think put everything out from his basement and it did decent numbers so now he stepped his game up alittle audio mixing beat wise and COTI2 will do better numbers and his producers and others close to him says he has alittle run coming up now that he signed to EMPIRE he can use their upfront money to make things better and better...Its ok to test the crowd first

honestly if banks wanted to he could come back and do 50k first week probably with ease.. but will he?
I think he just wants to make enough money to where he wont go broke, which is easy when you have worldwide presence.

Fair take I think a few thousand more alot of articles and shyt released about his singles off COTI2 and about COTI2 he never made it to number one pre order last time and he did this time in the hip hop category so that means more than the 13k he sold first week last year...I say 17k-20k...With him giving credit to 50 on podcasts and at his Sony show and Yayo being involved with 50 and Banks still I think the next 2-3 years we can get some G unit shyt and they make alittle run a project or two before its all said and done...Could be wishful thinking

only way we getting another g unit reunion is if 50 decides to do a g unit show or something lol

 

[GetRichOrDieTryin]

I know crazy... would of been fire...But FNO was released instead and it came out when i was down and it got me back up so im not too upset about it...

stay up bro

 

[REAL6]

Needs more Banks.

 

[stepbackj34spud]

Iight. After multiple listens I have the first COTI over this slightly.

Banks is rapping his ass off on this shyt tho. Dope album.

Banks lowkey got alot of dope shyt
Cold Corner 1 and 2
Halloween Havoc series
PLK
HFM 1 and 2
The Verses from the Gunit joints
Money in the Bank Series
Coti 1 and now this joint..

Banks has ALOT of material to do a VS with anybody. His worst project is Rotten Apple. That album simply isnt good. Every other drop whether album or Mixtape is fire.

i watched that sony hall performance and it looked lit but he didnt perform alot of the new album as i expected , he left off alot of classic hits too
