Lloyd
Banks says his club smash “Beamer, Benz, or Bentley” (and its remix)
— is just the setup. Banks has a lot more material in the cooker.

“This
is gonna pave the way for my official second single,” Banks told MTV News
last week. “We’re gonna hit it right on summer at the beginning. That’s
gonna take us through the summer. I got the 50 Cent tour coming up; I’m gonna be
on that joint. The first show is in Cleveland [on Friday]. But they can expect
that [single] within a couple of weeks. We gonna let the remix bubble through
Memorial Day weekend. They can also expect a new record from Tony Yayo as well.
We gotta make this a G-Unit summer.

“My
last album came out, I believe, October of ’06,” he continued. “I
just been so eager to get out there and give the people what they expect from
Lloyd Banks. If they think ‘Beamer, Benz, or Bentley’ is it, wait until you
hear my second and third official single. It’s definitely gonna be crazy.”

His
G-Unit partner Tony Yayo just put out his 50 Cent-featured “Pass the
Patrón,” but Banks said he isn’t sure if 50 will drop a summertime song of
his own.

“I
know he’s got the Black Magic album he’s working on with Governor,”
Lloyd said. “Anything is possible; there’s no rules. At this point, I’ve
been moving as independent artists [do]. … I don’t know how fast that status
will change or if that will be the outcome of everything and now we push
forward. But for the moment, there’s no rules, so you can kind of do whatever
you want. There’s no computer I have to wait in line for. If we feel that
passionate about a record, we can press play, and move with it. [The same goes
for] 50 Cent. We all gonna be out there. I think it’ll be a beautiful thing to
have two or three records bubbling from the same camp.”

The
Unit are independent, but maybe not for long. They’re apparently closing in on
a new home to distribute their music.

“We’re
very close,” Banks confirmed. So close I want to tell you something now,
but I don’t want to ruffle no feathers,” he added. “I don’t want to
get anybody nervous. It’s gonna complement what we been doing, the hard work we
been doing. It’s gonna give us the international platform.” (Via MTV News)
