I don't care how he feels about fame. If he's not enthusiastic about his music why should anyone else be?
which is why 50 was the best thing for him

they used to pull him out the house and "force" him to work and do more promo and videos and shyt


he still recorded and dropped tapes when 50 was gone... but soon as they had that reunion, you seen banks back on stage, back in videos and shyt


he just has no care in the world to PERFORM his music for you... he's really someone who makes good music for himself... he happens to have a friend who will push that music out there for him

way back in the day I remember they had some rappers direct pornos, I think snoop and 50 did them. I remember soon as the bytches came Banks was the most extroverted attention whoring nikka in the room, to the point where 50 was low key tryna get him to shut up cause all the bytches was on him. I guess that nikka only wake up when hoes around.

I always thought he looked uncomfortable as hell being extra animated. This was the first and last time I've ever seen him be animated.

No... Banks is always touring, he's just wasn't promoting his music.

touring is promoting your music.. what major tours was banks doing? i'm not talking clubs to keep the lights on.. i mean tours
There's no difference between tours and performing every week

Banks said he does something like over 100 shows a year. When you say he's "back on stage" that's complete BS. You seriously think breh just sits at home and the studio all day because he's not in front of the camera? How else would his bills get paid? Go look on his instagram. He was doing shows in Europe and Africa before the G-Unit reunion

Banks comes off as a fella who is more or less pissed off at the current social media whore state of the game. Nothing about Banks seems off. He is clearly a laid back fella who plays is smooth. Its just hyphened cause he is constantly around loud mouth over the top alpha males and characters like 50, Buck n Yay.

If Banks was in a group with Fabolous, Juelz n Vado or something he would prolly come off more normal.



banks is a soldier that's it all them people u name never went platinum banks need to interact on 1 social media platform either IG,FACEBOOK,SNAPCHAT,OR SUMTIN

Insecurity, usually the underlying issue with people who don't talk or avoid attention at all costs. Being an introvert and being a total silent recluse are two different things, if Banks ain't rap he'd probably be unemployable.

I remember Yayo said chicks used to think Banks was sick because he never would say a word, lmao, the hell? Showing a lack of interest is a defense mechanism for insecurity, he probably thought the chicks ain't feeling him so that's why he avoided convo and probably eye contact too. I watch a lot of Sopranos, salute Dr Melfi
