Lloyd Banks has generated a tremendous buzz for his looming sequel, Hunger For More 2.
The rapper talked to VIBE about the ambitious endeavor and the artists involved.
Every verse on my album that I got for a feature is crazy. The Kanye West joint ‘Trackstar’ is crazy. The song actually features me, Kanye, Swizz Beatz and Fabolous. I got Pusha T on a song called ‘Home Sweet Home.’ Hes very underrated; Pusha has been doing it for so long that hes in a similar space as me. Everybody knows the Clipse as legendary rappers. Now hes beginning a new legacy with his solo career. And Im doing the same thing.
The albums is set to drop on November 23 and is a follow-up to his 2004 double platinum debut Hunger For More.
Im excited,” Banks said.

WAKA FLOCKA FLAME VS STEPHEN HILL BET
Twitter beefs are the latest fad and faze of the game. This is wack though. Stephem Hill vs Waka Flocka. On Twitter.
EDDIE LONG – THE WORKOUT VID MASTER MAN!?!
I can’t name the company, because it would expose my source. BUT, there is a major fitness DVD company that does all sorts of videos and other things like protein shakes and whatever. WELL, the company was attempting to do a series of fitness DVDs with Bishop Eddie Long. The good Bishop was all set to do the deal and he even came up to their offices on the West side of the United States. Just as the deal was done, the p### scandal broke out. Rumor has it the company sighed a HUGE exhale of relief that they didn’t have the alleged boy manipulator as somebody that’s pitching their product.
REVIEW OF THE SOCIAL NETWORK
The Facebook movie its very good I hear. Peep this puppets review.
MARIO AND MOM: WHAT HAD HAPPENED WAS….
You know, I am not condemning Mario, but I have written about this before. You know dude is from Baltimore. Well, I’ve always heard that Mario was a straight thug and his R&B persona was a simple front for the industry. Now, with that, here is what TMZ has said about Mario.
According to police, Mario’s mother Shawntia Hardaway — a former heroin addict — told cops the former “Dancing with the Stars” contestant had been “throwing and damaging property” … and pushed her around with his hands and forearms.
Mario is out on bail now, but here is the situation. Mario’s mother is an addict and they even had a reality show on this. Well, apparently and according to rumors, Mario’s mother had relapsed into drug use. On top of that, sources say she was using his personal debit card to finance the habit. After Mario stepped to her on it, sources say, she got mad at him and there was some form of confrontation. SHE called 911 to get a leg up on him and the cops arrested him. I hear Mario is already trying to help his mother get back off drugs. Hopefuly this is a good account.
RICK ROSS’ DVD!
From Mikey T: “Rick Rozay is coming 3rd or 4th quarter with a DVD showing how he became The Boss , Ross is doing alot of work between that & putting out the next Triple C’s Album Color,Cut & Clarity …that album will drop on Def Jam. Its stamped Shouts to Bang Em Smurf & Young Buck”
Meanwhile, in upstate NY, some crazy fan runs on stage at a Rick Ross show and another throws a bottle at the Bawse.
ILLSEED’S QUICKIES
I heard J. Cole and Dip Set were having some issues getting into Club Mansion last night after the BET Awards.
Last night Diddy and Ross were at Club Mansion and they performed along with Busta Rhymes.
Soulja Boy says a certain site framed him to generate internet web traffic.
There was a rumor about Cee-Lo being super high during an interview with The Sun. That interview has been removed.
Bruno Mars has been charged with felonious possession of a controlled substance.
Cashis just turned in his LP to Eminem according to my homey Mikey T.
Wyclef is planning to run for president of Haiti in 5 years. Hope he helps in the great earthquake clean up.
Maybe I missed something, but how does everybody know that a UK goon jacked Yung Berg?
Trey Songz and Drake are reportedly in talks to do a collabo album. Will they be rapping or harmonizing?
What do Amber Rose and Kat Stacks have cooking? Hopefully a sextape and no books, songs or rap set ups.
There is an absurd rumor that Trey Songz and Lauren London are expecting a baby. Come on, son!
I was told there is a new rap chick named Barbie and she showed up at the BET Hip-Hop Awards in a black cat suit and blonde wig. She got a lot of attention. Meanwhile Nicki Minaj took home 3 awards.
HOW IS THE DREAM DOING?
Just wondering.
OLIVIA HAS GROWN UP!

The BET Hip Hop Awards ’10 airs on Tuesday October 12 at 8PM.
Lola Munroe
Best Cypher Peformer She’s Seen So Far: “I’d have to say Cory Gunz. That was a few years ago but he killed it.”
Next Project: “Being that I’m not going to rush an album, I’m going to give my fans an EP. I’ll definitely be working with different producers, even underground.”
Raekwon
On his return to form: “Now I’m where I need to be at. I’ve been in shape [lyrically] the last three years. Still a chubby gangster, though.”
Predicting Floyd Mayweather vs. Manny Paquiao: “Wow, I’m riding with Floyd. I think Floyd is our Muhammad Ali of today.”

Greg Street: “She said Weezy was the greatest!”
Chloe: “I will not confirm nor deny that!”
Tony Neal, Core DJs founder
On today’s DJ: “I think we get more respect. It started with the DJ, but we’re kind of being recognized for that [now]. With sales and everything, artists need as much help as possible, so it’s been taken back to the DJ.”
Laws
Next mixtape: “I’m coming out with a dedication to Paul McCartney called Yesterday’s Future. So it’s a lot more ambitious than the last one.
Yelawolf
Two albums in six months: “0-60 is coming out November 23, my first album for Interscope. After that, I’m going to be releasing an album in March [2011] called Radioactive.”
Waka Flocka

The New Boyz
On new album in early 2011: “We don’t have to prove anything, but we want people to know what it really is. We’re going to keep working hard so people don’t think we’re just a jerk dance phase.”
Lloyd
On his next album: “You’ve never heard music like this. You’ve never heard this side of me. It’s gonna be one of the best albums of 2010-2011. I guarantee it. You are the average of the five people you are around. When you add up my five people you get Polow Da Don, Stakeboard P, Timbaland, Jimmy Iovine and myself.”
Soulja Boy
On working with Kanye West: “I listened to the finished product and that really opened my mind. I don’t even want to say as a rapper, just as a musician. It really opens your mind to different sounds, drum kicks and all of that.”

Waka Flocka Flame And BET’s Stephen Hill Quell Beef
(AlHipHop News) BET executive Stephen G. Hill and rapper Waka Flocka Flame were close to being embroiled in a Hip-Hop beef that started on Twitter, but the conflict has likely been averted.
Hill is the VP of music programming and an avid user of Twitter. After Waka Flocka performed at the BET Hip-Hop Awards, Hill stated, BET Hip-Hop Awards. The show was going so well and then Waka Flak-ed. Yeah. I said it. Waka. Flocka. Flamed. Out. like it or not,hes popular. Wanted to give a shot #mistake.
Hill made the remark, because Waka jumped off stage during his performance of Hard in the Paint and No Hands, which was a move that was not rehearsed.
Waka responded with tweets angrily directed at Hill.
Flocka said, How the f**k u invite Waka Flocka and hate when i jump N the crowd to connect more wit fans and friends .. #rappers R robots lol I THAK [sic] BET AS A WHOLE ..99% SHOULD I SAY ITS JUST THAT 1% IS A DUCK A** NI**A I KNO [sic] KIDS HATE WHEN THEY PARENTS GET ON TWITTER AND ACT LAME IS F**K.
Hill recanted his initial statement after the wrong song played first forcing Waka to improvise in his own frenetic way.
“Let’s you and me talk. Bring your manager. I should NOT have sent that first text…but there’s some learning here. You in?” Hill said.
Waka has not responded.
