Lloyd Banks Rotten Apple LP Due in September

by: Mark Lelinwalla

The Rotten Apple LP already boasts features from members of the G-Unit family - 50 Cent, Young Buck, Tony Yayo, Spider Loc and Mobb Deep, along with Scarface, Musiq, 8Ball and Rakim. right “I tried to capture mixtape verses on album songs. Like the record I have with Rakim called “You Know the Deal,” that it’s bigger than just a record,” Banks told Vibe.com last month. “Hip hop is a music tornado - it starts somewhere and who knows where its going to end up. There’s a time and place for everything, bottom line. I just hope that when it comes back to [be centered around] lyricists, I get acknowledged for that.” As far as production, Banks called on the likes of Eminem, Havoc and Timbaland. Banks club banging lead single “Hands Up,” which features 50 and was produced by Eminem, continues to increase its radio rotation.
