[With New York rapper Bobby Shmurda recently talking about his status behind bars, G-Unit's Lloyd Banks talks to SOHH about the up-and-comer's legal woes.]
It’s unfortunate. We’ve been through similar things like that. G-Unit, myself, [Tony] Yayo and 50 [Cent] we got locked up, I believe in 2001.
We got locked up in the city, you know gun charges and stuff like that a few times. So I think whenever you’re coming into the game and to be honest I think that special unit, like the hip hop cops came around that area that we came in.
It was bad, to the point where you couldn’t even go to certain nightclubs. They were just being overly cautious.
I think that them coming in with that raw energy, you got to be on the same radar regardless. You are young, black and not supposed to be here. I was fortunate enough to get out of it, I didn’t sit too long any time I was locked up. But at the same time, it’s not nothing really to talk highly about. I just hope that they can get through that situation okay.
50 CENT AND G-UNIT HAVE BEEN TRASH SINCE 2007 BUT I WILL STILL LISTEN TO THEM AND COMPLAIN
In other words Bobby is a youngster wild’n out…I blame the lack of structure in Brooklyn for him getting bagged.
the structure in BK? I would say the structure him and his crew had or lack there of. He fucked up and got knocked. You play the game you run the risk of getting knocked. Simple. Nothing to do with classism just poor choices. If you going to play don’t be wild’n out. Be cautious. Then you putting your shit on wax be EXTRA cautious. He fucked up. Lets just hope he learns from this.
F*CK the police.
WTF is Lloyd Banks talking about. He was no thug or gangsta back in Southside Jamaica. He just hung out with them, like 50 Cent.
He never claimed to be, calm down bitch ass nigga.
“Bitch ass nigga”?? What are you? Lloyd Bank’s son. So sensitive that I questioned your daddy’s street credentials.
STFU you know nothing about the Southside…
