He’s really talented. I love his singles. Unfortunately, just about all R&B artists were struggling in the late 2000s/2010s.
The late 2000s weren't a good time for R&B as a whole.
Yep. Now all we have is bass and repeating the same line 40 times. The Hip Hop & RnB genre is really garbage right now.
@@Yourmomgoestocolledge Especially when folks tried to go the EDM route when the 2010s started.
It's not love making , it's very str8 forward and most people rather listen to rap 😂😂😂
lloyd
Street love is definitely an rnb classic. Every song is hot. Lloyd should be bigger. He writes his music and he never disappoints. Plus he kills every song he's featured on.
Forreal u can play that album without skipping any tracks. I still got the exclusive Best Buy version with extra tracks. Lloyd got with Murder Inc too late 50 already heavily dented Ja & Murder Inc brand. Plus the fed case. It definitely suffered his push
Facts. That album will never get old
Love that album
Great album all the way Through through.
I am a Lloyd fanatic! One of my all time favorite artists. I’ve purchased every album multiple times (physical copies & on iTunes). I’ve seen him in concert about 4 times. I probably know 95% of his whole discography including underground songs & features. He’s such a beautiful soul.
I still got the playboy diaries on repeat
@@jasonstopsign Yoooo Playboy Diaries was a slept on classic n shooda made more
Still listening to take it low, feel so right, and Cadillac love and couple more lol
@@dehjhunaeday5743 yooo Take It Low is my songgggg.
Girl,stop lying you know you bought the bootleg from the Africans 😆
I think Lloyd exceeded his potential without Murder Inc. He also landed a role in the Bobby Debarge movie. So not only is a talented singer ; he crossed over to acting. He's winning no matter what.
Player’s prayer was a banger in the hood that was a male anthem it might not made on the charts but the hood was playing that song nonstop I remember because I was one of them and still play that song till this day
One thing liked about r&b artist like Lloyd and Trey Songz back then was the fact that they had a hood vibe that was relatable.
Lloyd never needed murder inc! He truly has talent ! He would’ve we good on Def Jam or Warner bros
Exactly, Irv Gotti hold Lloyd down and even had a nerve to diss Lloyd
The murder Inc story established Lloyd as a breath of fresh air. He needed the drama of that situation to make his brand of music reach out more than if he debuted in a peaceful situation
In hindsight he might’ve did better with LA Reid in the beginning. What’s sad is he went with Irv because he and the others felt like family to him only for irv to trash him when he finally left the sinking ship that was the inc. Irv seemed to turn on everyone in the end.
He just arrogant 🤷‼️
This dude is so talented! I’m shocked his 3rd album flopped (the one with “Lay it down”) and that he’s only 36
The reason why Street Love only sold 100k when it could have hit a million when it dropped is because it didn't hit shelves till like a year+ later after the hit single "You" debuted. I remember going to Best buy week after week checking for it until finally, I gave up.
You're right. The timing of it was bad. "Killing Me" should've been a single too. That song would've blown up
i was so confused as to why it sold so low!
I miss best buy days especially listening 🎧 to CD before purchase them.... Its was awesome 😎
Street love sold over about 144,000 the first week and almost 1 million in total.This was a certified gold album. Just wanted to clarify that just im case anyone was confused lol
@@SuperWinter1987 they would've sold more if that fed case didn't hurt his label
One day, Irv is gonna get socked in his eye. He talks like he's gangsta and one day someone will test his chest. He's burned so many bridges one day he won't be able to cross the pond.
Exactly my gee, straight puss🤦😠🤷✔💯🤔💪👊...#tbg
Facts💯
His most recent TRU LP is 🔥.
@Brandon Knight joke's on you homie... because I have it on an MP3 player and didn't even know that until you said it. Spend even more time lQQin at the cover and less time tryin hate. Just enjoy the music, or don't. Keep it movin... NEXT.✌
Lloyd is in my top 5 favorite make vocalist. He's a high tenor. And so am I. Lloyd made me love my voice. I have all his music
Boo I'm better
R&B has suffered since guys like Lloyd took a break. We don't appreciate good music till it's gone. Lloyd still too underrated despite what the numbers say. It's a shame.
R&B in general died sadly
Right !! It’s not the same R&B I grew up on, this is more like R&B and Trap music mixed together.
@@princesspenthewriter8120 exactly smh it’s sad because there were so many great R&B artist back then
Facts.... Praying that history repeats itself because things always come back around.
Praying r&b is one of those things...
True
Just like it's a couple of good r/b artists it's a couple of good hip hop artists,but yeah both died out fast cause it's no such thing as talent anymore.
Lloyd is talented and seems like a down to earth, laid back dude. Seems like he just fell victim to industry politics, and the soundscape was changing, which meant Rnb acts like Lloyd wasn’t the popular sound anymore. Weeknd and Drake changed Rnb forever in the 2010’s with Take Care and House Of Balloons. Popular Rnb was now dark themed and a lot more introspective. It’s still like that today for the most part.
Drake and weeknd aint R&B bruh
I would say people like party nextdoor, bryson tiller, pnb rock they changed rnb
@@Michael-vf8sy again thats not Rnb bro
@@danteprice1874 its rnb,
@@Michael-vf8sy the artist that i named is R&B the shit you named is pop music mixed with neosoul .. its Not rhythm and blues fam you dont know music
This guy right here is so dope to me... The new Ralph Tresvant is what I've always called him and I need him to remake, "Do what I gotta do". I was always mad Players prayer wasn't an official single... That street love album is a classic period.
But that Tru album is 🔥🔥🔥🔥 Dope too... And that live acoustic version of the song stays in rotation... This guy is so slept on..
You know what’s crazy was when J. Holiday basically made his own version of “Players Prayer” called “Pimp In Me” … I know I wasn’t the only one that peeped that 🤨
Personally, "Tru" is my fave Lloyd album and "Street Love" is right behind it. But, I, too, own Lloyd's albums. One of my all-time faves in da R&B genre 💯
@@still730bf they're both great albums but Street Love is still my favorite
@@JWill951 I respect it 💪🏾💪🏾 Dat is a CLASSIC ALBUM 💯
Yea it’s beyond crazy that “players prayer” wasn’t a single cause I feel like that’s his most popular song 😭😭😭 till this day I hear that song even more then “you” and “south side” 😭
I am such of fan of Lloyd. He is amazing, love his music. I went to the Millennium Tour (again) just to see him back in October. He hasn't missed a beat
Man I remember him being in that group! They showed it on BET . When they actually showed videos. I'm old 😭
Lloyd's idea was to bridge r&b with street music. Lloyd is actually how I got into nipsey hussle before he blew up, rest in power to him🙏🏾🌠 he deserves his flowers now
Ali reads Irv’s feelings. Ends it with, “Now that’s some cold stuff.” and has me on the floor laughing from his delivery. I love the in-depth knowledge of your series. Keep up the EXCELLENT work and keep the light comedy in them too. I still tell my sister in my Ali voice, “Who checking for that such and such album.” I have to find that video when you had Tyrone the crackhead as image when you said that. 💀🤣
This has me dying 😂
Lloyd’s hook on “Forever” is still a top ten hook for me.
classic hook on a classic album
Facts
Lloyd is the man. Still and TRU! His independent projects are just as fire as his albums on Murder Inc. So slept on but the real ones know.
Lloyd is such a talented, underrated and versatile artist. All of his singles was fire. He always deliver on the features! Lessons in Love album was one of favorites. He is so humble. Gotta love him❤️ Thanks for this video!
Can you do a video on Dino from R&B group Htown?
Absolutely love Lloyd! He’s so talented, unique sound, and genuinely is very humble. Thanks for doing this breakdown ♥️ Stream his new music YALL 🥳
Thank you so much Ali for doing this video, it was a very nice surprise!❤❤
Man i had thee BIGGEST crush on Lloyd for years. Literally i was in love with him lmao. I still have all his albums and my old ipod was filled with like 200 of his songs 😅😂
Lloyd should join Silk Sonic. He'd fit in so good with Anderson Paak and Bruno Mars.
Real talk
Boo I'm better. MURRRDAAA
Nah that silk sonic sound is too perfect ish has no swing
the album Street Love is an underrated classic.
No lie it was good from beginning to end with no skips ❤️
“Cupid” was fire 🔥
Damn i forgot about that one
Was just listening to his iconic hook on Bedrock
I always liked Lloyd and his voice. Of course You will always be a top classic of mine (which I was blasting a few month ago on heavy rotation) but he don't need to prove anything. He had his loyal fans and ppl who enjoy his music will appreciate him for all he dropped over the years.
Sad.. I didn't know about his loss and family issues but I do hope he finds healing & peace one day...
Thank you for this video!👏🏾🙌🏾 You always give a spotlight to some talented artists who often don't get the recognition they deserve or are forgotten😩. Llyod is so underrated and has such a beautiful voice. He has such a beautiful spirit. I love how honest, humble and unproblematic he was. 🌚Much respect to him 🙌🏾💚. Sidenote he really could of modeled I had some gorgeous hair and was very handsome 😍🔥.
Me and my best friend were big fans of Lloyd, his album Street Love is still my favorite. What happened to singer Tynisha Keli?? She was hot in the mid-late 2000s, she had a song called “I Wish You Loved Me” I remember everyone was surprised when they found out she was white lol, her voice was so powerful.
I can't remember the of the singer- but her sing was EVERYWHERE in 98/99. Indont recall the title, but she's sings" how did you get here? Nobody's supposed to be here, I've tried the love thing for the last time...."?
@Kiana Brash Deborah Cox
She still doing her thing go follow her on ig
She stole my name lol mines is Tynisha Kayleigh 😂
Man. Lloyd is awesome!! He may have had some setbacks but I know he didn't fall off. He is a killer feature too!!
Lloyd will always be amazingly talented!❤
Back in 007 I saw Lloyd, Ludacris, & Nas in a Summer Jam concert in Cali. They kilt it of course!!! Lloyd came from the back of the audience, being carried to the stage by his back up dancers. Never will forget it.
Lloyd has a lot of potential. He probably would've had a bigger career if he signed with L.A. Reid. Street Love is a classic. I'm still mad about them not releasing "Killing Me" as a single. That could've been his biggest single. Dedication to my Ex is a great song too. That was also around the time when R&B was dead in the mainstream too.
If hes EATING off his music , he SUCCESSFUL
Right!
I can't stand irv. He's such a cold hearted person.
Ali could you do a "what happened to" video on the artists The Game signed to BWS, like Juice, Ya Boy, Nu Jerzey Devil, DJ Skee and that group he started MOB, with Eastwood and Cysero.
Thanks. Power and blessings from Melbourne Australia
My first time meeting Lloyd was when I was 19 at the time. There was a talent show, and he was invited. This was before his single came out, he was cool and laid back. He was singing for the ladies and they kept on following him. It was really funny at the time
Can you do Travis Porter, Dem Franchize Boyz, Murphy Lee, Field Mobb, OJ da Juiceman, Rhymefest, Kardinal Official, Bone Crusher, Tiffany Evan's, D4L and Petty Pablo
Lloyd is in my top 5 favorite singers! I'm happy you did this video. Lloyd is so underrated!
Lloyd has a loyal female fanbase so he’ll always stay afloat to some degree
I still listen to Lloyd I love his music 👏🏾
I still listen to Llyod on damn near every Playlist I create. While he never had an album that I could listen to from beginning to end there are songs from every album that I love. Feels so right from his 2nd album. His song with Drake on the mixtape. Jeezy, 8ball & MJG. And especially Wayne. He is a talented singer for sure!
This is why I love your channel, You alwayz play the jams that I forgot about! Year of the lover is soooo nostalgic so many memories just unlocked Omg 😩
I'll be honest Street Love is one and if not the most underrated albums ever. This album was clearly ahead of its time and I still jam to it to this day. Lloyd is still trying to continue his dream and I heard some of his cool colabs as of late example Bedroom Boom. If you ask me judging by the information in this video Lloyd never got the right connect and when he did they never pushed him any further. Lloyd is an artist and like most who are truly talented and because of hate and jealousy they get sideline or sabotaged. Clearly if you ask me Irv Gotti should of worked on him more in terms of his music and his development as an artist because Lloyd has shown true craftsmanship in the music industry especially with his content. Lloyd like Rocky Balboa just needs a great soul in his corner to bring out his greatness.
Lloyd wherever you are I hopeyou are still doing music doing what you love to do Lloyd love you miss you and I hope that you will make some new music soon for your fans all around the world god bless you your family your friends and all of your fans all around the world🙏📖😊❤🎤💿📀💽
Honorable mention here, the music industry wasn't selling records in the late 2000s that's why it was such a big deal lil Wayne sold a million copies first week of carter 3 in 2008. That's the same time period Lloyd left murder ink, streaming brought the music industry back up but no where near their peak times. Not a Lloyd Stan but his music got better starting with street love but the timing was off do to low sales across the whole industry
I love Lloyd and this video! 🔥🔥🔥
When Is someone gonna do ASHER ROTH!!! That'd be a great video!!!!
He lived in my neighborhood and i went to high school with him... man you should have heard him rap... lunch time was crazy
I loveee his album "street love". He's always been an underated artist. Lloyd where ya at...we love you!?!❤️
It's crazy how..... up until this moment. My ENTIRE life. I never knew Lloyd was in the group N-Toon...... who I have FORGOTTEN about since my childhood.... and one of my fave songs growing up "Ready", that I haven't heard since I was a child & had completely forgot about, until you played it again in this video..... The fact Lloyd was making CLASSIC music, already. As a child in a boy band (with me as a fan). And this entire time I never knew it was him. You have no clue just how much this blew me away. On many levels, but thank you. 😃😂😂🙌💜
The 1st clue was the album's cover, there was a MOMENT of deja-vu like "I SEEN that photo before, it's too familiar" and it kinda baffled me until I heard "Ready" the WAY that song and even the music video goes back for me, is crazy. And I never knew it was Lloyd in that group or that he sung that song (I do remember knowing he was the cutest in the group, but that's evident lol)
Also him and irv both needed each other yes irv gave that shot when the inc was still a machine but when ja was washed and ashanti wasn’t selling lloyd kept the lights on without street love inc would have been folded
I love Lloyd ❤️ it's the smile for me lol
Lloyd will always be an RnB legion he paved the way like many artist for the next generation! I grew up listening to his music! It’s sad to see real music as well as artist disappear! Let alone get the homage or respect ✊🏽 they deserve!
Lloyd is the best vocalists his albums be 🔥🔥🔥he's very talented 👏 👌 can't wait to see him in concert coming up with Bobby Valentino
I had no idea his 3rd album didn’t sell so well. It was REALLY good
Yeah "Girls Around the World" should've been a bigger single
About time been waiting for this forever/ Ali Talks do Gotti and Boo from the R Kelly song fiesta
This would be a great one. Especially because they from my city.
I love that you ALWAYS have clips of songs and references the best channel by far
Lloyd Still Out Here MAKING Good music, he has ALBUM on Tidal ,
I gotta hear it soon , been a fan since day 1 love him !!
I see him definitely working with Miguel! I think they’d be magic together
That Jacquees ft Llyod & Rich Homie Quan "feel it" is pretty hot too. I love me some Lloyd baaaby!
"Get it Shawty" is a legendary track
I remember him saying irv didn't help him with the you video and he secured the wayne feature himself and shot the vid himself
Do Sammie next!
He always favored black Michael Jackson, to me..
SAD BUT TRUE R&B WILL NEVER BE THE SAME …. THEN AGAIN I’M HIGHLY APPRECIATIVE WITNESSING JODECI TO BOYS 2 MEN , ASHNTI , MYA , SO ON SO 90’s AND
2000’s ERA 🔥🔥🔥
His voice
, hair and style I love everything about him
I was wondering what happened to *Lloyd.* He has only a handful of songs that I liked *Feels so right* and *Be the one* were straight bangers.
Tru was an amazing album. Lloyd is an underrated goat
LLOYD is for sure a prince 👑 of RNB ! Classy talented and a triple threat. 💜💜🏆
There’s a time to hit “ Reset” an there’s a time to hit Release. Reset , Release . Timing is Everythingh
Man I loved Lloyd's first 2 albums. I could play both albums straight through without skipping any tracks. Definitely miss his sound.
Yayyy thank you so much for doing this video!!
I wouldn't say ruined, he just needed to find his elf and start back from the ground up in a different direction🤷🏾♂️
Good work man. Shout out from The Bronx
Thanks!
Duuuuvvvvaaaalllll county Jax FL ‼️in the house 🏘️
Lloyd has always been an R&B gem! Treat you Good get me through some special nights 😏😛😅!Great job ALI! Can you do a WHT CO-ED Roll With Me will always be a classic!
I wish wayne would have signed him after he left inc
He was with him for a while
@@darrylwhite588 right that's why I don't get how he ain't sign him after all those hits they had
N toon def should have reunited lloyd said he was down to do it in 2015 but it never happened. A few
He signed to jazze pha(sho nuff) thinking the inc was defunct but irv ended uo getting that deal void. He was also considering to be signed to young money but he didn’t wanna do another situation with universal tho technically interscope is under universal music
You should do a video on Big Lurch!
Loved that song “Ready”. Remember that group. Didn’t realize he was a member of that group.
I produced a song for Lloyd back in the day which led to him doing the second song “You”, the problem is is he just never had any good producers consistently plus rap and the Internet killed the industry in Atlanta.
His slow wine with me song is my,favorite and street love album is my favorite album ❤️
What happened to J. Holiday, August Alsina, Trey Songz, and Mario🔥
Lupe fiasco next?
"Lay it down" was a flop ????? Damn that's like his best slow song that shhh was hard
It was a hit on the Hip Hop/R&B charts but not on the Billboard Hot 100
This was dope about lloyd
"YOU" was A GAME CHANGER.
I think I just noticed that Lloyd was the early 2000s version of Nate Dogg the dude singing on all the rap and hip-hop songs of the day
Street Love, that whole album but especially the title track, spoke to me in my 20s. Talk about a flashback. Now I got to dig out that album on my iPod and listen to it all the way through.
How did you forget Joyce Irby of Klimaxx in this story? She was extremely instrumental in his career.
Loved Llyod feature on Big K.r.i.t's 1999
Foo was pop locking while singing on a rap song 🤣
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yo why n toon toon time not on apple iTunes?
Player's Prayer is still played heavily over here man this video makes me feel so nostalgic 😩
Now I need to listen to "tru" again
