If banks has any respect for his craft he would do a diss track to him this week. If no diss track from him then I’ll lose alot of respect for him. Dmx was nice tho don’t get me wrong... but Dmx disrespected him n then said say 4 bars lmaooo..

This the perfect time for Banks to do more music like he been doing these few weeks n also do a diss track. If he fumbles this up then smh

since banks is a mixtape guy.
considering his pedigree, banks can not walk away from this.
if banks does.
banks kills anything he built up and by default places himself below a place he was carving for himself that had untapped what if potential long term as far as legacy.

if banks let's this go.
by default, banks hurts his solo legacy considerably.
plus by default nullifies what was there previously in dark horse lore as well.
definitely being a point where his draw could be declared cold and dead.

It's amazing this has blown up, this is literally a non issue.


Back in the days yea it’s a non issue. But these days nah lol. Banks should respond in a diss track bro. Mind u Dmx was one of my fav rappers and Banks also.. Just the way Dmx tone was felt like disrespect to him as an MC. The crazy thing is Banks would have to b on point cuz even tho DMX is way past his prime.. if banks does some B level track Dmx could def get busy...

nah banks responded accordingly.

alot of rappers are willing to shrug off criticism from all-time greats that came before them.

even crazy ass oschino said that if someone like scarface dissed him, he wouldnt say nothing. just out of respect.

oschino, another one of those rappers from back then, that were better than banks, to further illustrate my point earlier.

DMX, The LOX etc used to be in Harlem with Dee and them in ciphers with Cam and Mase etc.
you would assume L was involved. Big L supposedly taped the infamous Jay-Z and DMX battle.

I doubt Lloyd Banks is ever in X's thinking at all. hence the reaction.

Big L didn't tape it, he's noticeably in the clips shown.

Californ-i-a by way of BK
How is this a non-issue.
That is a direct diss.

I don't look at it as a diss, personally. He didn't say Banks was trash, he didn't even say Banks wasn't a lyricist, he questioned if he was and asked Scoop to prove to him that he was.

It's like this, if someone said list the best 3 point shooters in NBA history and nikkas say "Curry, Reggie Miller, Ray Allen, Hubert Davis" nikkas who aren't familiar gonna be like "Hubert Davis? Top shooter? Really?". Even though statistically he's as good a 3 point shooter as you can find. Not knowing, isn't a diss to me. If he would've said "fukk outta here, Banks is ass", then that's a diss.

There's many G-Unit tracks where Banks wasn't even the best and in some cases wasn't even the second best and now dudes in here claiming he's trashing prime DMX :stopitslime:

LOL..

Fat Man scoop basically summed up Banks career.

DMX : give me 4 bars?

Scoop: I dont know

DMX: Give me 2 then

Scoop: I dont know


:picard: good ass rapper, but nothing worth noting like this board gives him credit for.

Banks in real life (off the Coli) is basically just considered a dope rapper. Nothing more, nothing less. Dudes on here playing themselves saying he fukking with prime X. shyt is disrespectful honestly.

DMX definitely knows banks' material.

i agree that DMX aint saying that banks is trash, but he aint tryna here banks name in the mix with all-time greats.

not so much of a diss, as it is a criticism.
