Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review
The Hunger for More, the debut solo album from Lloyd Banks, should be immediately familiar to anyone that’s followed the career of New York mix-tape veterans G-Unit or its most famous son, 50 Cent. Steeped in the same celebratory Big Apple gangster spirit as Get Rich Or Die Trying, and boasting cameos from an all-star cast that includes Eminem, Fiddy, Snoop Dogg, and Tony Yayo – not to mention a handful of Marshall Mathers production credits – it’s clear that this tight coterie are one of the key clans defining the shape of rap in the ‘00s. Banks is easily a wordsmith on a par with 50 Cent, even if he lacks Fiddy’s effortless swagger – indeed, it’s his flexibility and range that allows The Hunger For Moreto hop from the bullish, cocked-pistol likes of "Warrior Part 2" to soulful seduction number "Karma" without disturbing its fluid sense o! f continuity. Perhaps this album’s main fault is that it lacks a crossover party hit of the calibre of "In Da Club"--but with braggadocio-laden stand-outs like "On Fire" and "Ain’t No Click", that isn’t necessarily a problem. --Louis Pattison

Album Description
Probably better known for being 50 Cent's sidekick in Fiddies G-Unit crew, Lloyd Banks is going it alone. Though his solo debut, The Hunger for More, features several guest appearances from other G-Unit/Shady/Aftermath-related cousins, it's Banks who's behind the wheel. The Hunger for More looks set to follow the success of the cutting-edge hip-hop G-Unit album, Beg for Mercy.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Sart from the G-Unit rapper, 30 Jul 2004
The debut album of G-Unit's Lloyd Banks is a strong one filled with solid tracks that all hip hop fans will respect and enjoy. The lead single 'On fire' is undeniably the biggest hit of the album yet Banks' album is in some way like 50 Cents as it grows on you with every listen. Tracks like 'Warrior Part 2' and 'Aint No Click' are promininent with the first listen but its the tracks 'Playboy', 'I Get High' & the timbaland produced 'I'm So Fly' that really grab the attention of any real music and hip hop loving fans. Banks' album is most definately up their with the 50Cents and Eminems yet I feel that the album will struggle to attract the attention of general music fans. The fact that Banks is the second out of the blocks of G-Unit, behind 50 Cent, means that he will struggle to win over everybody like 50 Cent did. If Banks and 'Hunger For More' had been released first I see no reason lyrically why this album would not be hugely successful. Yet Banks remains in 50 Cents shadow and unfortunately for all hip hop fans his quality will not be as widely received as 'Get rich or Die tryin'
Hopefully Banks will prove me wrong and the album will be every bit as successful as 50 Cents' so theres an incentive to buy it for anyone out there. It is worth it if you can appreciate previous G-Unit records and hip hop in general.

4.0 out of 5 stars Lloyd Banks- The Hunger for More- A masterpiece...., 4 Jul 2004
By A Customer
Lloyd Banks is (as we all know) a member of G--Unit, and after their successful album, "Beg For Mercy", news aroused that each member was working on a debut solo album of their own. For Young Buck, it's "Straight Outta Cashville", Tony Yayo is working on his, but for Lloyd Banks, who released his album earlier than the others, it's "The Hunger For More".
I have purchased the 1 Disc album,(YES, there IS a 2 disc, but it will cost you extra), but that album has two bonus tracks on it already. Not much difference from the 2 Disc, with the exception of 2 new videos on the bonus CD, and the album wrapped up in the same paper used for money.
The songs on this album are good. The anticipated "On Fire" is on here, but after hearing the rest, you wonder why he didn't share them with the rest of the world. They're just so brilliant!

1. Ain't No Click-A good song to start the album that has deep beats, with Yayo yelling in the background.4/5
2.Playboy-Has an arena-type crowd, quite fast but weak beats. Has a bass/rhythm that seems to go on forever.3/5
3.Warrior-Good beats, with a catchy rhythm and brilliant lyrics.4/5
4.On Fire-THE BEST! So much energy and slyest orchestral beat that will make you jump and bounce. The lyrics are easy and cool, but hard to resist!5/5
5.I Get High-Normal beat with percussion and quite funny lyrics about smoking and rolling. Good techno thing in the background every few bars.3/5
6.I'm So Fly-Good beginning to start off, with great "echo" effect of the beats. Nice piccolo and synthesizer heard behind the fast-paced and scorching lyrics. 4/5
7.Work Magic-Overreacted beats with so much use of drums, it's as if the whole song is a chorus.3/5
8.If You So Gangsta-Cool piano with sound effects fitted in rightly on time, to go well with the expressive lyrics.4/5
9.Warrior Part 2-Strong intro, with effective lyrics from the big stars. Good use of the empty gun/metal "clicking" sound, mixed well with the beats and the string instrument. The Lyrics are more to do with "A True Warrior", than Warrior, (Part 1). Nothing in common with the first "Warrior" song, which is good since you won't be ripped off.5/5
10.Karma-Nice happy song for the girls, (in a way). It has a sunny feeling in it, and if you liked "Ride Wit You" from Joe feat-Unit, then with slower tempo, you'll love this!4/5
11.When The Chips Are Down-A depressing, (good) song, about going down. Cool slow melody, with the voices and Lloyd Banks being heard. The best bit is the chorus though.4/5
12.Till The End-Good beginning with melancholy sound effects, but the fast lyrics are okay. The high-pitched melody is possibly the best thing in this song.3/5
13.Die One Day-Ignore the cheesy 80's rock bit in the first few seconds, and you get something that is quite lighter than "When The Chips Are Down", but with more percussion, and skillful rhyming. Has "Chip and Dale" voice in one part like "Through the Wire" by Kanye West.4/5
14.South Side Story-Good lyrics about his history, and others. Real hip-hop dealing about (fairly) real life situations. Again, the whole song, even the verses are overreacted, as if it's the chorus throughout the song.4/5
15.Just Another Day-You wonder if that and "Die One Day" has anything to do with "007's Die Another Day"! Anyways, good and soft beats with light melody barely heard in the background, muffed up by the fast but average lyrics. Nothing special. Precisely, Just another day..3/5
16.Take A Good Look-Deep and strong piano, with hazy but fast lyrics. Gets you to bop your head, although, tiny bit the same, it's nowhere near as big as "on Fire". 3/5

As you can, see, none of the songs are below average, and a few receive the special 5/5 mark, unless, you are a REALLY BIG G-Unit fan, for years. Worth buying it, if you like 50 Cent.

4.0 out of 5 stars Still Hungry?, 26 Jun 2004
After signing for Shady/Aftermath and going onto 50 Cent's G-Unit label Lloyd Banks has probably been one of rap's best kept secrets.
I first heard Lloyd on Obie Trice's debut album 'Cheers' on the track 'We All Die One Day'.
He was amazing on that track, and then later showed us what he can actually do on G-Unit's debut album 'Beg For Mercy'.

On 'Hunger For More' Banks is showing us all he can do, with guest appearences from Young Buck, 50 Cent, Tony Yayo, Snoop Dogg, Eminem & The Game, Banks clearly is showing signs of a legend in the making.

'Ain't No Click' is a fast-paced track that tells people that no one has a better group than G-Unit.
'Warrior' is another track with a good beat which talks about Banks' fighting spirit.
I think that either 'I'm So Fly' or 'Warrior Part 2' are the best tracks on the album.
They both have nice hooks and lyrics.

Lloyd Banks has finally been able to unveil what he has to offer to the rap game and it is a very good effort.
His fellow G-Unit member Young Buck is to release 'Straight Outta Ca$hville' in July and if it has been produced as well as 'Hunger For More' then a lot of other artists will be aware of what G-Unit has to offer.
