G-Unit head 50 Cent made sure to wipe away his recent first pitch outing at Mets' Citi Field last month by calling up Lloyd Banks and Tony Yayo to perform some tunes. #Unity
Footage of the 50-driven performance has started to make its rounds online.
50 Cent and G-Unit performed at Citi Field yesterday after the Mets lost 0-5 in a game against the Padres. 50 and G-Unit ran through a collection of songs including one of their latest bangers, “Real Quick.” (Rap Dose)
The Unit leader, Kidd Kidd, Lloyd Banks, Young Buck and Tony Yayo all united on their recently released “Ordinary N*gga.”
G-Unit continues to jack the instrumentals, grabbing Trey Songz and Jeezy’s “Ordinary N***a” for their latest remix. 50 Cent is back on his lyrical assault on the remix, floating over the R&B production like he has done so many times in his career. The rest of the crew then comes through to dismantle the remainder of the beat. We sure are loving this G-Unit resurgence in 2014. (Complex)
Although brief with his words, Fif put a fall deadline on a G-Unit reunion album a couple weeks ago.
“Yes, you’ll see an album by late November,” Fif revealed in a televised interview. (Fox 29)
The Unit jumped onto Young Money stud Drake’s new “0 to 100” track earlier this month.
Just days after surprising the world with their reunion at Hot 97’s Summer Jam concert, G-Unit have become the first group in rap to hop on Drake’s “0 To 100” and make it their own. “Real Quick” borrows what I would call the ‘title bars’ from Drake’s latest viral hit for a five minute reintroduction to one of the mid-2000s greatest collectives. It’s got solid verses across the board, and its structure is one I am sure many emcees will borrow in the months ahead. (Under The Gun Review)
