- Lloyd Banks - Survival (Live Session) | Vevo ctrl
It didn’t matter if you had your dial set to either a pop or hip-hop station in the 2000s, Lloyd Banks was coming through your speakers regardless. Whether it was with G-Unit or flying solo, the New York rhymer could ride the airwaves with your DMXes and your Britney Spearses. Bolstered by a voice that sounded like a swig of Malbec, Banks became one of hip-hop’s go-to collaborators in the 2000s because his flow seared a cool sizzle to every track he touched. “Beamer, Benz, or Bentley” with Juelz Santana boasted riches with fun alliterative detail. On “Loyal to the Game” he enhanced post-humous Pac bars. To be sure, LB stands on his own. Relisten to “On Fire.” It goes punch for punch with similar club bangers like Nelly’s “Hot In Herre” and frequent track-mate 50 Cent’s “In Da Club.” With his new album, ‘The Course Of The Inevitable 3: Pieces of My Pain,’ the hip-hop OG wants to remind people of just that. "As crazy as it sounds, it's 20 years in, you gotta remind people sometimes," he recently asserted. To back it up, he slid down to our Brooklyn ctrl stage to perform album cut ‘Movie Scenes.’ Being a man of the people, he also dug up a fan favorite. “Survival” is from ’06’s ‘Rotten Apple,’ and don’t be surprised if you find yourself spinning that record for the rest of the day.

Man. I’m glad he went back to give us some type of visuals for this track
He should have listened to 50 when he told him that back then
Banks has everything to be way bigger than he is.... 🔥🔥
Facts
Banks is top 10 imo
One of the most underrated rappers of all time, The Hunger For More was an instant classic and he always dropped that heat.
instantclassic is COTI 1, 2 e 3 too 🔥🔥🔥 Lloyd Banks Forever
Hell ye
This is from rotten apple which didn’t do good at all in 2006. Sometimes yall mfs just be saying shit to sound cool.
Noo.. never unrated all around the east coast
@@YSuniverse856lol
Banks you like wine bro better with time always been in my top 3 all day!
Banks don't ever retire hip hop needs more like you in the game.
Bro i’m 23 , I just found lloyd banks whole list of music He’s toooo fire
Sorry for your late arrival. But glad you’re here
Money in the banks 1-5
5 and better series -Return of the PLK v1, Halloween Havoc v2, cold corner v3, 4/30/09 birthday v4, V5, V6, all or nothing: failures not an option, all or nothing: live it up, Halloween Havoc 2, Halloween Havoc 3
You listen to those in order and you’ll see how he went from punchline heavy to more song oriented and growth.
Also listen Fabulous,Chingy
Halloween Havoc v2 is sooo good!🔥Lloyd is a G
Damn I am turning 26 and knew him for a long tim even as a lil Nigga I was kinda surrounded with the music but rediscovered it in the late 2000s
What a throwback, from Rotten Apple to COTI 3, both masterpieces. The goat 🔥🔥🔥
COTI 3 is not even close to Rotten Apple. This guy needs to put out more commercial material under the right label.
@@jurejevsenak8927 If you care about commercial sound you listening to the wrong artist.
Prodigy better
I remember buying Rotten Apple when it dropped. Love that album.
@@THEDONSTR8Fightah76 I mean that not saying anything. Prodigy is already the big homie.
B-A-N-K DOLLAR $IGN BIH!!!
Banks way too underrated.
This dude just flows immaculately without any effort...salute!!
This track isn't new tho
@@static1217he Still does
Excellent
Yes, he does!! Smooth## 🔥🔥
@@static1217nobody said it was
Still the Best Punchline Boy ever 🤌🏼🖤
GREATEST OF ALL TIME
This track so hard this been my dude since 2003 I was 17 now I'm 37 and still excited when I see something from Banks
Same 37 & all
You're from my era. Im 36 now I was listening to him on repeat during highschool in Queens. Good times
@irobot7016 best times of our lives looking back
I was 13 I’m 33 now. Amazing to watch banks whole career
@@Vortex_oneam 35 😊😊😊
This version is unreal. I can’t stop coming back to it
Dido 🔥🔥🔥
What other version is there?
@@JeffreyArnette-rl6sc I just mean this updated live version as opposed to the original from Rotten Apple.
@@JeffreyArnette-rl6scThe other version is the album version which sounds slightly different since Lloyds voice is more raspy. In addition, it's cleaner since the technology then was different.
I'm a studio engineer. When artist record they often read off the paper..
After they perform it they get more comfortable so it sounds smoother like in this version.
Yeah it's Up there with the best re-recordings I ever heard. I never heard the album version until after. I only listened to it once. Its no way as good having Banks on your screen rapping along with the mature whisky voice now.
Lloyd Banks still one of the most underrated rappers
Banks never fails and he'll be underrated 4 ever no doubt about it.
Absolutely
crazy underrated. When people talk about lil wayne being at the top I'm like bro wtf there is no room for lil wayne when you got people like Lloyd out there
@@blgdinger3 Lloyd Banks would embarrass lil Wayne for real and lil Wayne is great but Lloyd Banks is a different animal that ppl fears but respected,But not respected enough for recognition that he deserves ofcourse.
Facts
This was totally unexpected. I’m here for it tho! #Salute
Same Here!!
Od
oldheads showing love
Happy to see this timeless verse gets the shine it deserves 🔥🔥
You’re a legend too
2:07

I've heard the lyrics/hook from this song off one of his old mixtapes I can't remember the name though..
underrated. banks is a goat
Real rap.We missed stuff like this.
Slick enough to catch money between the rain drops 💯💪

Banks is gonna keep dropping mixtapes till he blows just like fiddy did
This beat is mean😤😤😤🥷🏾🔥🫵🏾
Lloyd Banks is a phenomenal emcee! I'm glad he's getting his shine rn. 50's comments about him being lazy must've lit up a fire in him 🔥🔥
Yeah a bit late game was slapping him around where wad this banks at

fake news@@ChargersCity
50 always hated on Banks.
This throwback is 🔥. I used to bump this at the gym all the time!
🙏🙏Blessings forever GOD loves y'all too forever tell everyone you know and don't know. Jesus loves y'all too forever. Teach everyone how to see and enjoy their blessings too foreverw
One of the saddest days of my life is when biggie small passed away but after i heard banks i knew he was just Reincarnated as Lloyd Banks truly bless to be in the Era of both these Men East Coast Hip Hop is Life IMO
Banks has his own way of rapping which is much different than Biggie, BTW it would've been crazy if Biggie was still alive and they collabed, we would've had more bangers like Victory 2004
Banks is a killa for real. Love his skill💯💯💯💯
One of the most underrated rappers ever!!!
Whole album still hard in 2023 album was ahead of it’s time fr fr
To me all these 25 years listening hip hop Banks is the GOAT in my opinion. Dude is so fucking smooth with hes flow and wordplay🔥
Exactly the Friday surprise we needed. Two live performances.
🙏🙏Blessings forever GOD loves y'all too forever tell everyone you know and don't know. Jesus loves y'all too forever. Teach everyone how to see and enjoy their blessings too forevera
“GET EM BANKS!”
JUST TELL ME HOMMIES SONGS LIKE THIS ONE WITH THIS FLOW AND SOUL LYRICS FROM THIS UNDERRATED RAPPER
Show to me what time is guys
Banks' voice nowadays sounds more aggressive and tough, he only gets better with age
His voice was most awesome in 2002 mixtapes, 2003 till 2005, around 2006 when he was making the Rotten Apple he rapped with a high pitched voice, it seems in the last few years he raps with a mix of those versions of his voice
@hititdj exactly, it's perfect, it was going a bit downhill after the early 2000s (imo) and now it's peak
This is the cold corner 2 sound 😤
Cause he learning how Stack his vocals.Em never used Stack them like this, when he produced Banks records.
I don’t like the new voice
Banks message is for the smart loners getting to it with full confidence, unshakable ish!! Message always clear on point on any tracks!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Very well said my guy
Great comment to read
🙏🙏Blessings forever GOD loves y'all too forever tell everyone you know and don't know. Jesus loves y'all too forever. Teach everyone how to see and enjoy their blessings too foreverz
Facts even tho I like to see him collab but for the most part that’s exactly the music he provides
Right, like I'll play this for my son's to listen to
One of the most underrated track of the PLK. He low key saved hip hop with this album in a one hit wonder era (2006). The real ones know. PLK 🔥🔥🔥
🙏🙏Blessings forever GOD loves y'all too forever tell everyone you know and don't know. Jesus loves y'all too forever. Teach everyone how to see and enjoy their blessings too forever

One of my favorite joints by banks
Lloyd Banks the Great & still doing Hip Hop proud 👏 True Lyricist never Dies
This one of my favourite Banks songs, but considering his voice has gone through some changes here and there, hearing his current voice over this makes this song hit even harder!
Well said!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I like this blueprint covers his on songs
I agree
much more emotion and depth in his delivery. the bars hit a lot harder than the original!
It's certain artist that u know don't get help with they pen game, Banks always was cold. Top 10 New York lyricist
