Lloyd Banks & Tony Yayo Talk Eminem

Thursday, July 29 2010 4:39 PM EST | Posted by: B.Dot | Posted in: Blog, Focus

Two-thirds of G-Unit discuss with MTV Eminem’s success with Recovery. Yayo even goes on to call him the Godfather of Hip-Hop. Bambaataa ain’t gon like that. Ha!

“Eminem is like the godfather of the hip-hop game,” Yayo said. “In a time like this, when records are not selling, he’s the only one that is selling. You know, Drake and all the other ones [did well], but Em did [close to] 800,000 his first week, and he’s #1 for the fifth week. It’s incredible. I think he has a faithful fan base of people who have been following him for years. They’re not going to stop following him and not stop listening to his music. Em said he didn’t like his last album as much as this one. You can hear the difference. I like both of the albums. ’3 a.m.’ is one of my joints. But Eminem has followers that’s gonna mess with him until the day he dies.”

  18. Wow. says:

    @ Cock bandit

    Not this white people shit again.
    Not going to bitch about that, but I will say one thing.
    Without white people buying albums these “rappers” would be living in gutters.
    As, white people love hip hop and always will love hip hop, from late 70s, early 80s, to now.
    You people are so dumb, I swear.

  19. ronnie_moe says:

    White people love Eminem. You know how many white people I have heard say “Eminem is the only rapper that I listen too”?

  20. Black Shady says:

    White people love Em true, but shit I hate when mufuckaz actin like black people dont fuckz with Em.
    Im black, and Em is my favorite rapper. Nobody can touch him bar for bar. NO ONE! just stop all this black/white bullshit..its gettin old

  21. PITRI says:

    ^^ and you knw how many white ppl ive herd say “Fuck Eminem trying to act all black and shit”

  22. PITRI says:

    And im Mexican and Em is MY Favorite rapper.!

  23. Fuck Ya Life says:

    Its sounds like the person interviewin them wants them to say people are buyin his shit cuz he’s white. People do act like only white people fuck wit Em which isnt true but they are the majority that buys his shit I mean look at Encore shit went gold in a week and that shit was hot ass.

  24. eminem1 says:

    lol it wasnt a fail i missed by like a sec

  25. Kid Rapp says:

  27. nick says:

    Blacks should leave rapping to the whites

  28. EMINƎM NO.1 says:

    GODFATHER HE IS!

    WE FANS WILL KEEP HIM ON TOP NO MATTER WHAT FOR 6TH WEEK TOO!

    FUCK OFF HATERS!

  29. Thank Me Hater says:

    Britney, Christina, Lady Gaga and Justin Bieber’s fan bases are white….wonder why they don’t sell as much? Quit that just white people buying his shit excuse. The truth is he appeals to black people because he raps and white people because he’s a WHITE person that raps but BOTH buy his music

  30. AV says:

    so if white people buy it then it doesn’t count? sounds racist when you say theyre opinion isnt worth the same as yours. music is universal.

  31. RMC says:

    hhh american ,mexican,latin,european,african,arab,asian all listen to eminem music
    not like fat ass cop ross

  32. damone says:

    jay Z the goat so stop with this already. Everyday every post Em the goat get out of here.

  33. Thank Me Hater says:

    @damone I’m sure that Em thinks Jay is the goat too. it’s useless to argue that point with others. It’s all opinion

  34. Jay Electronica says:

    Wayne Was The Only Last Person To Sell A Milli In The First Week……..

  38. YepandNope says:

    @eminem1 said, “haha fuck the haters 1 of the biggest names in the game has just came out ans said it .”

    Not only is this dude FAR from one of the biggest in the game, he basically WORKS FOR EMINEM?!?!? lmao. To say anything other than what he is saying would be career suicide u idiot.

    @graffitti bandit said,
    “I think he has a faithful fan base of people who have been following him for years.
    THEY’RE CALLED WHITE PEOPLE.”

    And you would be correct sir. Whites are loyal to their “rap savior” no matter how good or bad he does/is (as represented by their loyalty during his last two albums which EVEN EMINEM ADMITTED WERE BAD), because they will NEVER let go of their FALSE belief that the greatest rapper alive is a white man. Due to their superiority complex (and inferiority complex lol) they somehow feel like if a white man is the best rapper that they all somehow benefit from that?? I’d be a millionaire if i had a nickel for every time the “white person” in the room says “eminem is the best rapper ever” during a hiphop conversation. The FUNNIEST part is the fact that MOST of the time it’s OBVIOUS that the person actually knows basically NOTHING about hiphop as a whole. lol. For the most part Eminem fans are loyal TO THE IDEA of Eminem and not his music. Now of course all of the Stans will go nuts and say black people buy his s**t too, blah blah blah, but its a FACT that the sheer amount of white people in the country DWARFS that of blacks. You could also argue that whites are MUCH more likely to buy music as a whole vs blacks. Not just because we’re cheap but because of the STATISTICAL FACTS that represent our poverty level vs. that of whites. Oh, and I’m not even going to get into the marketing advantage this guy has over everyone else in the history of this ish. Basically, Eminem is NOT the best rapper by far. He is the most SUCCESSFUL SELLING rapper which has absolutely ZERO effect on his status as “the greatest” because of the INSTANT AND COMPLETELY UNFAIR advantage the color of his skin gives him. Go figure. A white man is more likely to succeed in this country than a black man. Who would’ve ever thought? lmao.

    FACTS:
    -Total U.S. population is 304.1 million
    -White Americans are the majority in forty-nine of the fifty states, with Hawaii as the exception.
    -12.% of the country’s population is black versus 70% white.
    -228.2 million whites versus 37.6 million blacks

    The next FACTUAL statistics effects who actually buys albums
    -Whites living under poverty is 10.6%
    -Blacks living under poverty is 33.9%
    *These numbers are ESPECIALLY significant when you consider the fact that even though there are nearly 4 times as many whites in the country, they STILL make up the smallest percentage of the poor. So while there are ALOT less blacks, most of us are still poor. lol. Wow.

    Eminem is great. He’s very talented and i like him. What i DONT LIKE is all of you idiots who keep arguing or actually believe that he keeps selling so much because hes just “that good??” lol. I just CLEARLY explained why he always sells so much, EVEN in the face of doing bad albums. Nothing wrong with it. Just acknowledge the truth and stop acting like being white isn’t the reason he sells so much when it is DEFINITELY the reason he sells so much.

    p.s.
    I think even Eminem has admitted in several of his verses that he knows he sells because he’s white, but his Stans still don’t want to believe it? lmao. smdh.

  39. Fuck Ya Life says:

    @YepandNope

    Damn u writin a book and shit but besides all ur statistics I do agree to most part that a lot of people do buy his shit cuz he’s white like people who don’t listen to rap will buy his shit. Thats why I said he can throw shit on a disc like he did with Encore and still go gold in a week cuz he has that support.

  40. The Truth says:

    Yeah Eminem said in “White America” that if he was black he would have only sold half of what he has sold

  46. Fuck Ya Life says:

    Did u say Yayo is one of the best out?

  47. YepandNope says:

    p.p.s.

    Other FACTS:

    -Vanilla Ice’s album was the fastest selling album of all time!!

    - His album sold 11million copies during the SIXTEEN WEEKS it spent on the billboard charts and of course it peaked at NUMBER ONE!!

    -Even after he COMPLETELY dissappeared from the mainstream radar, the album has since sold nearly 3 million more copies!

    lmao. This only adds to the other SOLID EVIDENCE i gave and proves without a shadow of a doubt that SALES DO NOT REFLECT TALENT LEVEL, ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE WHITE!!!
    lmao.

  48. KillaKill says:

  49. YepandNope says:

    @eminem1,

    so your argument for my argument is that its too much for you to read? LMFAO. The fact that you just willingly displayed your ignorance to the world, also completely dismisses any and all of your statements here. I mean, i think everybody pretty much already dismissed you after you referred to Banks as “one of the best??” lmfao.

    By the way, the commentor RIGHT AFTER you said he agreed with me. I guess there are a handful of people left in the world who can still read ONE PAGE of information? lol. good look Ronnie.

    This makes a few things clear about you though @eminem….If you think it’s cool or acceptable to NOT be able to pay attention or read ONE PAGE of writing, then you can’t have made it very far in life right? lol. Have you EVER read ANY books???!?!?!? ANYTHING??!?!?! smdh. This is what the world is coming to i guess.
