Lloyd Banks Off G-Unit?

It looks like the once impenetrable G-Unit crew is getting more and more see through as time goes on. What was once a 5 man crew is now just down to three men and if rumors hold true it looks like it may just be a duo. Lloyd Banks has been suspiciously quiet lately, only dropping a few mixtape tracks every now and then, while meanwhile Tony Yayo has been repping 50 more than ever, putting out new mixtapes of his own on Thisis50.com and appearing on MTV’s Mixtape Monday.

Well I am hearing that Banks is overall fed up with the whole G-Unit ordeal and wants to move on to pursue other ventures in his career. I’m told he feels like he will always be under 50 and his shadow and plus he doesn’t like what has become of the Unit. He misses the old camaraderie and feels too much beef is involved instead of music. Obviously though to go against 50 at this point would be career suicide so I’m hearing Banks is just chilling and isn’t worried about making any new music as he feels there is no point. 

The source on this info also pointed out that Banks still has millions and owns a few cribs in the Tri-State area so there is no rush on this situation and if he never drops another album, that’s fine with Lloyd as well.  Damn. I gotta say I ain’t feelin this one. Banks was one of the dopest lyricists in a long time I thought and he could definitely strike a nice balance if he was released properly. Do the people still want Banks?

50 Cent Kicks Game Off Of A-Team Movie?

Seems like it’s 50 day in the rumors. The new A-Team movie has been buzzed about and talked over since it was announced last year that it was even happening. The movie is set to drop sometime this upcoming summer and is expected to be a huge hit. As is the standard with any movie today that intends to make any kind of money among the kids, the movie is employing the acting skills of several rappers, one of whom was none other than The Game, to play the role of Mr. T’s old character, B.A. Baracus.

Now supposedly it was already confirmed that Game was set to play this role. However over the weekend none other than 50 Cent flew out to Canada to audition for the role of Baracus and I’m hearing the studio loved it! Word is now that the bigwigs have officially switched out Game for 50 and he will now be playing the role! This is supposedly even the reason why his new album BISD, was recently pushed back so that he can complete filming  of the movie!

Damn. If this is true, and it does seem likely, Game seriously lost on this one. I could easily see the studio execs rolling with 50 over Game.  All they care about is numbers and who can bring in the most sales, and sorry Game stans, but that is definitely 50. It’s shit like this that I’m sure is keeping Lloyd Banks from getting too Buck with the Unit. Shit I would chill and collect those checks too.
