DJ Whoo Kid And Lloyd Banks - 4-30-09: Happy Birthday (2CD)/The Cold Corner (Mixtape Review)

I may get a lot of hate for posting this, but Lloyd Banks has been one of my favorite rappers for years. Between his freshman and sophomore albums he fell off a bit, but has definitely made a comeback with his flow as of late. I liked most of the songs on the Happy Birthday double-disk. Also, before this mixtape, in January he released the Cold Corner and that was great. Both of these mixtapes were on-point lyrically. Lloyd Banks is the only G-Unit member worthy of respect. Both of these mixtapes have some good collaborations (namely the Jay Rock Collabo on Happy Birthday) and top-notch east coast production. The beats chosen fit well for Banks. Both Mixtapes average out to a 4/5. Enjoy.
