After watching his interview I can tell honestly that Lloyd is very guarded and down-to-earth. Gotta bump his music more. He and Mario are definitely underrated.
Lloyds always had a sweet-street innocence about him. Very authentic and talented. He's the original August Alsina he's been thru ALOT in his life since young. Godbless him.
I see a broken man really trying to work out his situations and change the world thru music! With God by his side he got anything life throws at him! Love his ora!! Beautiful southern hospitality wish you the best Lloyd!! You amazing
I know most of us probably cringed a little when sway asked him that. But I think most of us kinda wanted to know the answer. That part of the song was constantly debate up until sway made Lloyd clarify it. Sway asked the question everyone wanted to know but was probably scared to ask
''I lost a child'' this made me drop a tear.. he's so talented, humble, smart. He can't be compared to anyone. This man has changed my view on this world. Ten years later since You came out ans it's still my fav song. When my friends go through my phone they see '' Lloyd.. Lloyd..'' and they're like 'damn you're crazy' but he really made Rnb a thing you know. You can't hate on him. He's the man.
I'm so over there illumanti and selling souls to Satan type stories. Why can't people just live. It's unfortunate but stuff just happens in people's lives that's just how the world is
SuperWinter1987 NO thats whats happens 2 normal people not celebs.. when u find out what those satanist at the top of entertainment make their minions do its blasphomy.. way worse then what u can imagine
Went to Elementary school with him, and high school with his sister, didn't know him personally, but saw him sing on stage in our performing arts program.
Lloyd does have a very soft & gentle spirit, his smile lights up a room!! He always reminded me of a young Michael Jackson. Glad he's making new music, he brought back his 2004 southside look. "YOU" will always be his iconic song tho, that track is a 2000s R&B Classic. The last of REAL R&B.
I agree it's rare to hear a man speak on the pain and loss of losing a child to abortion. It seems like it's usually the other way around where the woman wanted the child and the man couldn't be happier if she got an abortion!
I'm so impressed with Lloyd! He is a MAN on every level! I love the way this brotha thinks and his talent is up there with the best of them! Great interview!
Love when you see artists grow over the years and come back with more knowledge and life experiences. Lloyd is still a beast singing and the new song is dope. Praying things work out for him!
Lloyd did grow as a artist, and as a person, But to be honest he always been a cool guy, out of the drama, not out here beating up women or fighting, getting arrested, just avoiding the law. Every song he puts out is about Love. He's underrated though and he should of blown. He should be up there with Chris brown. The only time Lloyd been on a good label is when he was with Murder INC but even that didn't go good. If he had the right Label behind him, He'll easily be top 5 today. This is coming from a Lloyd fan.
" We got so much against us, the last thing WE need is Us against Us." Lloyd is such a humble man. I can't wait for the album and the "Tru" record is DOPE....
Just listened to the song and I like it! I'm so glad that he didn't come back trying to fit in with the mainstream sound. He sounds like his classic self, and I think I speak for a lot of people when I say, it is appreciated. Much love and respect.
The song "Tru" is a delicate song with delicate words. As an older lady "50", my son found it shocking that I was enjoying this song. I play it often and reflect on things I've went through in my life. Congratulations Mr. Sway!!! I wish you continued success in New York - coming from the BAY!!!, but stick to you day job. (smile)
Troy DaBoss : He Really is Solid to be still Relevant after all the stuff he has dealt with. Hope he get out in one piece an sober when his time is up.
Im feeling his whole vibe. Just watching this interview I can see how at peace he is. I think he's been working on it during his hiatus. Peace is so underrated but is vital for everyone. Looking forward to his new music.
"Life is way more colorful when a, you got love in it". So profound! You can tell this man is a master of words; he may only have his GED, but he has the lyrical & communication skills of a college graduate, maybe even at the masters degree level. He's very sharp & quite articulate. He's a world class citizen, . . . Impressive!
He speaks very well and matter of fact... I have missed his musical presence. He looks as if he's grow, physically, spirituality, and in so many other aspects. I'm happy he is back in the spotlight!
Beautiful song with guitar, so jazzy... You're real blessed Lloyd and a poet, so underrated. The interview was cool, you guys are funny :D Much L.O.V.E. Waiting for da new album :)
i love Lloyd i been rocking with him forever now "Southside" "Angel Eyes" "Get it Shawty" "Players Prayer" the list goes on... im super excited that he is coming back with new music is all love over here Lloyd love you babe!!!!!
I freaking love this guy. He is so super talented and I think I love him lol but seriously he has a lot of talent. he was slept on for sure. under rated but bomb af.
I'm telling you I ducks with Lloyd. I'm talking since street love. players prayer and year of the lover was my shit. and I still listen to the playboy diaries. the new music is so good I feel like we grew up together and it's amazing to see how much he has grown as a man and as an artist
Lloyd is really UNDERRATED!! When he sings, you can tell he sings from his HEART!!
he has a song called 'I need you'. it's beautiful. i think you'll like it

Lloyd: it's not easy to talk about losing my child
Sway: So how you lose your child
Smh come on sway man lol
I agree.
He could have just said sorry for your loss or my prayers are with you and just move forward
LOL i cringed at that
😂😂😂
I know most of us probably cringed a little when sway asked him that. But I think most of us kinda wanted to know the answer. That part of the song was constantly debate up until sway made Lloyd clarify it. Sway asked the question everyone wanted to know but was probably scared to ask

preach
Dont drop a tear cuz he BLOOD SACRIFICED his child 2 'SATAN' 4 Money & fame... they will sell their momma out 4 fame & Money
+LOOKIN 4 THE TRUTH 100% As much as I respect Lloyd, none of these entertainers are saints. They've all done some foul shit.
I'm so over there illumanti and selling souls to Satan type stories. Why can't people just live. It's unfortunate but stuff just happens in people's lives that's just how the world is
SuperWinter1987 NO thats whats happens 2 normal people not celebs.. when u find out what those satanist at the top of entertainment make their minions do its blasphomy.. way worse then what u can imagine
Very humble Man. May God grant him success and heal him from the loss of his child. Very sad.
Yes I said the Same God Bless him.
Went to Elementary school with him, and high school with his sister, didn't know him personally, but saw him sing on stage in our performing arts program.
damn that's awesome
what school
+Direct Media Group Avondale Elementary in Avondale Estates, Ga
"theres so much against us, that the last thing we need against us, is us"my mind is blown from how smoothly he said that
He is a really cool dude. I met him before he was super nice. I'm happy to see him back on the scene.... Go Lloyd!!!
@City Cafe in Atlanta
+SurreallTV that's funny, but I'm not from the ATL.
Lmao... them ATL chicks must have gotten to you really good😂😂
+SurreallTV lol you are to much!!! it's time for me to get out of the office but I just start following you on Instagram so hit me back😂😂😂
+SurreallTV got it!
Lloyd does have a very soft & gentle spirit, his smile lights up a room!! He always reminded me of a young Michael Jackson. Glad he's making new music, he brought back his 2004 southside look. "YOU" will always be his iconic song tho, that track is a 2000s R&B Classic. The last of REAL R&B.
he speaks well! and seems very sincere
Low key racist comment
Stop Drew I'm a big Black Dude from Detroit homeboy You're reaching!!! I don't have a raciest bone in my body Bro!
Let's not do the back and FORTH BS either!
I am a black woman and was sitting here saying the same. Had nothing to do with race; he DOES speak very well. Very humble...Much respect
One hundred
Seeing his heart. . .seeing the DAD's point of view on losing HIS child to abortion . . .#tears
I agree it's rare to hear a man speak on the pain and loss of losing a child to abortion. It seems like it's usually the other way around where the woman wanted the child and the man couldn't be happier if she got an abortion!
Lloyd underrated. but dude made some good cuts back in his day.
totally Agree ! 💯
Yes he did
agreed
so true
He making better cuts now with this "Tru" record in my opinion. Real music!
Lloyd's You with lil Wayne is my favorite track by him. Classic song
Girls all around the world
+Sasha Johnson they're both good songs
in my top 20 fav songs of all time for sure.
Facts bro, so much nostalgia in that track.
real talk!!
I'm so impressed with Lloyd! He is a MAN on every level! I love the way this brotha thinks and his talent is up there with the best of them! Great interview!
Love when you see artists grow over the years and come back with more knowledge and life experiences. Lloyd is still a beast singing and the new song is dope. Praying things work out for him!
Talent, humility, and growth. Lloyd is a main example of appreciating the simple things and living life on your own terms.
Southside and Southside Remix still bangs to this day!
factual
💯💯💯
I loved "Feels so right" ugh
TaelurAlexis Feel So Right was a banger as well. I think it was my Myspace profile song for awhile back in the day, haha.
+TaelurAlexis yesss girl be about to melt listening to that my favorite Lloyd song😍
Lloyd can easily play Sammy Davis Jr in a biopic
nah tommy Davidson got that on lock
+destinysaretrue he can play old Sammy but not young sam
He can.. I always thought that
or he could play Chili from TLC
***** stop it 😂😂
Lloyd is such a beautiful person with positive energy I love him so much and he's so humble I like his personality😍
Player's Prayer was/is still that cut
hell yea and Southside with Ashanti
+destinysaretrue thats my shit..lol
yessirr

I agree
Indeed

Ah! Love that song! Now I have to listen to it. =)
Dude I played that song until the cd messed up
The 31 people who disliked this interview doesn't really understand the growth of Lloyd as a person and artist.
Facts,,and they never will because they prob young n dumb and listen to this new wave wack shit.
+Kristie Carter exactly!!
I don't understand why anyone WOULDN'T like this video. Ppl like drama and there's none here, so they don't get what he's saying.
those all his haters
Irv Gotti was one of em 😅
Lloyd just has a good spirit about him. Love his energy.
Real fans know that classic first album....😍Southside😍 when the only song getting play was the single. *Day1* Grown man status...Welcome back love!!!!
Yes indeed!!!!
I can go further 😛. what about the ntoon album lol how many know about that?
I can go further 😛. what about the ntoon album lol how many know about that?
+SuperWinter1987 Yeah....I never listened to it tho
u should take a listen one day. the boys were young but the album is still decent
Wow I never had the time to really research him. He's very mature. His attitude is going to get him far. God bless him
Lloyd has never made a song I didn't like and he's always been a very humbled person.
" We got so much against us, the last thing WE need is Us against Us." Lloyd is such a humble man. I can't wait for the album and the "Tru" record is DOPE....
Just listened to the song and I like it! I'm so glad that he didn't come back trying to fit in with the mainstream sound. He sounds like his classic self, and I think I speak for a lot of people when I say, it is appreciated. Much love and respect.
So much positive energy coming from him. Crazy to see people like this. Just genuinely happy to be breathing
Lloyd looking like Black Jesus lol!
*Jesus. just Jesus.
Jesus never existed, so it don't matter.
Walguens Aristide
Nope, plan too, but that has nothing to do with Jesus weirdo. Stop deflecting.
No I do not celebrate no holidays. It doesn't matter where you live. You keep getting of the subject of a Jesus not existing. It's plain and simple.
Walguens Aristide
You're not even making sense. I'm talking Jesus not existing and you bringing up everything other than that. Negro please.
One of my favorite r&b artist ever! hope he comes back
i love him even more! such a positive humble guy
This man is so sincere 😘 his voice, his choice of words, his humbleness just everything
I AM IN LOVE WITH HIS NEW SONG!! I pray him all success.
He is soooo handsome, talented and humble! Love you Lloyd!
When Lloyd started singing...😍😍😍😢😢😢🙏🙏🙏
I loved Lloyd when he first came out & I love him now. I'm glad he's back & with new music.
The song "Tru" is a delicate song with delicate words. As an older lady "50", my son found it shocking that I was enjoying this song. I play it often and reflect on things I've went through in my life. Congratulations Mr. Sway!!! I wish you continued success in New York - coming from the BAY!!!, but stick to you day job. (smile)
i have soooooooooooo much respect for him. i see him totally different now. gonna go buy this song like 4 times!
That Childish Gambino song he was on was dope Telegraph Rd
Thats my shit!! He is a dope writer
fr. my favorite!
Lloyd is such a beautiful person!
Lloyd hair was always was lit Bruh, MY GIRL NEEDS YO SECRET BRUH.
DNA genes lol
+Jé Be (Here But Gone) Right, thats that creole!!
Correct cause Lloyd is a mocha chocolata Creole boy from New Orleans!
Dezz Carter Is August Alsina creole to? They both have the same look,
if lloyd get the right producers behind him he can make s big
a big comeback
khaled
khlaed is an ANR, not a producer and he only makes stupid turn up music from early shit like "Im so hood" to "I got the keys.:
Troy DaBoss
Troy DaBoss : He Really is Solid to be still Relevant after all the stuff he has dealt with. Hope he get out in one piece an sober when his time is up.
Probably the most humble R&B dude in the game.
Im feeling his whole vibe. Just watching this interview I can see how at peace he is. I think he's been working on it during his hiatus. Peace is so underrated but is vital for everyone. Looking forward to his new music.
Get It Shawty was my shit when i was little bruh
Nigga

I have always loved this guy. God bless you for being so transparent about your life and circumstances.
I literally cried watching this. So much love and soul. Lloyd is such an amazing poet.
I rock with Lloyd period.
I enjoyed this interview and he (Lloyd) has a beautiful spirit and attitude.
Outstanding interview, I have always appreciated Lloyds talent. This new song is FIRE and I am really hoping for a big win for the brother.
Lloyd is an og to this R&B game
So much positive energy here. Gotta love it. Peace and blessings to all.
"Life is way more colorful when a, you got love in it". So profound!
