Lloyd Banks Responds To DMX Saying He’s Not Lyrical & Trash: "He Begged To Work With Me"

[IllmaticDelta]

banks is nothing more than a generic NYC punchline mc

dmx isn't/wasn't really super lyrical either but I find his (prime DMX) bars more poetic

Punchlines isn’t lyricism
Poetry is lyricism

no way in hell Banks touches X in any form or fashion

Banks is probably on my bottom five list of rappers though so I’m biased

 

[Homeboy Runny-Ray]

I don't see X riding around listening to Banks. I'm sure he knows singles and some joints here and there but not his catalog like that. Especially over the last 10 years when he's been pretty irrelevant.

so youre saying DMX never heard any of the g-unit mixtapes?

as for the last 10 years, i wouldnt consider that to be required listening.

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


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

DAMN.

The probability is very low that he listened to G-Unit mixtapes. Song here and there, probably, but listening enough to be familiar with Bank's music/skills like that? Nah.

DMX was never an ill lyricist though

U and everyone who dapped u buggin tf out. X was absolutely an ill lyricist and one of the illest and most creative storytellers in the game. Stop. Also. X is buggin saying that about Banks. Prolly don’t even listen to Banks.

U would be surprised how out of touch X is to alotta shyt. Not a knock on him but he prolly genuinely never gave Banks an actual chance.

Not true at all. Banks hasn’t even been a punchline rapper for going on 15 years.

 

[Real N Quotes]

Damn, 50 now DMX

Banks let a couple barz fly

 

[Newzz]

DMX aint hear drake name.

he already started talking over scoop, by the time scoop tried to mention drake.

its no secret that DMX cant stand drake.

He ran off the entire list again at the 17:55 mark of the video end of the video & was uninterrupted by X.

X was 100% listening in, Scoop said Drake's name, X said nothing

He just thinks Banks is trash

 

[IllmaticDelta]

Not true at all. Banks hasn’t even been a punchline rapper for going on 15 years.

all his songs sound like long punchlines.

If you don't spit 9 thousand syllables and end it with a punchline you're not a dope lyricist apparently. smfh

This isn't true at all, lol, what? Have you heard a Banks song since 2003?

 

[FreshAIG]

Banks is dope MC/Lyricist

DMX is just a better MC/lyricist than Banks

X is probably unfamiliar with Banks like that, so Scoop putting him with all time lyricist threw X off.

The end.
