See, Craig Davis wasn’t completely off his rocker. Today it was announced that G-Unit Records have inked new deal with EMI. As the first order of business, the label plans to distribute Banks’ next album, Hunger For More 2 which drops November 23rd. To hear him tell it, the deal is a breath of fresh air:
“It’s refreshing to see the EMI staff excited about my project, they have the passion and energy I haven’t seen in while”.
Tony Yayo echoes the same sentiment:
“The EMI staff is creative and willing to think outside the box. They are fans of my music and career. I’m looking forward to marketing and promoting my upcoming album with them.”
Good luck to banks & yayo
Duh No One Else Wants Them
Hunger For More 2 is being anxiously waited for over here! Gonna be a hot album, but wasn’t feeling the single ‘Any Girl.’
Hating doesn’t even matter at this point, but go ahead anyway. lol
we’ll see if 50 can build again
GGGGG GGGGG G-UNIT!!!!!!!!!!
I was going to say something mean but then a pretty car drove past and I forgot.
“HFM2 this summa!!!”
………..
“Hunger For More 2 which drops November 23rd.”

yo you just know this dude will pull out all stops because Banks album will be a complete success. hats off to 50
Good luck to Banks, i really feel sad for him. He was and still better than Game & 50 combined!

g-unit is illl PERIOD
Independent is the way to go…………….
COOL !!!!!!!!!!!!
NAH NAH FUCK THAT!!!!
I THINK IM BIG MEECH!!!!!
I ALSO THINK IM A RAPPER!!!
I DUNNO ANYMORE!!! =(
The 50/ G-Unit dick riders are out 2day I can smell it.
I Wanna See “Any Girl” Joint Blow Up Now That It’ll Be Promoted By A Major Label, This Ish Makes The Club Go Nuts.
Yayo looks downright depressed
i thought G-Unit was with Shady/Interscope, was there some falling out with those guys?
I wanna show banks n yayo some southern hospitality….some grits n ass ya dig……I wanna be in the middle of a g g g g-unit sandwich……I’ve been a bad bamma…..maybe yayo can do the hand dance by my rectum to a Gucci mane song preferably freaky girl….
I really hope banks album sells well.his been mad under rated for so long
^
damn.. you fucked up a nigga so hard you might be facing charges my nigga.. LMFAO..
TONY YAYO SHOULD JUST QUIT. HE MAKES G UNIT LOOK SO SHITTY.
50 CENT.. NOT AT HIS BEST, BUT HE WAS UP THERE WITH THE BEST AT SOME POINT. HE CAN REGAIN THAT IF HE PUTS EFFORT INTO MUSIC AND NOT INTO JUST MAKING MONEY WITH SHITTY LITTLE MOVIES.
BANKS IS DOPE. PROBS EVEN BETTER THAN 50. GOT THE LYRICS AND THE FLOW.
BUT STILL, GOOD LUCK WITH THEM. MUSIC IS MUSIC. PUT HIP HOP ON THE MAP WITH GOOD MUSIC.

Come on sun, nobody likes your music. EMI is lying to you! Your music is garbage.
I used to fuck with Yayo back in the day, around 50’s Power of the Dollar album. Dude was nice. Nowadays his raps are garbage. No real subject matter at all. Flow non existent.
@oj da dicksucker
Ok pussy but obviously You cared or else u wouldn’t have commented on what I said.
LMAO @thisisravenstwn is probly @oj da cornball in disguise, regardless get a life pussy.
Well this is a great look for Banks and the GUNIT record label brand
Now that “Any Girl” can blow up it debuts as the mtv jam of the week sunday so that is a major look..
I fuck with the unit and I like the move
@BDK
Why You Mad Nigga ?
@BDK lmaao ..dat nigga Oj Da Cornball probably made half of these comments he known for using another screen names dick rding 5-0 …and G-Unit signin to EMI is like signin to Koch records …they only big artist is Katy Perry
@So Icy Boi! LMAO damn, niggas a lame.
is capital record d same as EMI
Emi is formaly known as koch 50 pulled the same card as fat Joe he sighned his last album there an I bet yayo an banks won’t sell more then 7k each
@nova nah, I think E1 was Koch records. I’m pretty sure but I could be wrong.
@BDK haha i know right ……@wright ..EMI owns Capitol Records they the distributor kinda lik ..UMG who is the distributor to company’s lik Def Jam , Interscope etc.
Brian Pumper look azz boi
@ALLOFYOU
Four “major labels” dominate recorded music — Sony Music Entertainment, Universal Music Group, Warner Music Group and EMI — each of which consists of many smaller companies and labels serving different regions and markets.
there’s something called IP address u coons know nothing about. Big Dung Kaka gets no more attention from me after this very condescending comment to him.
So Icy, u coon, Kate Perry just had the #1 record in the country for 5 weeks. U mention her like thats abad thing? u coon. And the fact u compared EMI to Koch make me wonder i’m even talking to you.
SMH
Koch is E1.
Kids these day. smh. i blame gucci and wacka. smh
i bet dat was Oj da pussyman or some Feminem fan using my name writing some gay shit who does? dat ..smh internet nerds ..all da gay shit yall write only makes yall gay smh get some pussy …
fuk 50 fuk banks fuk yayo and fuk G-unit as a staff record label and as mutha fuckin crew n if you down them then fuk you too ..
G-Unit is done over gone .. they suck .. 50’s album sales tell the story .. old news.. but wait maybe they’ll start some magical beef and get some hype? like always ..
I have a major problem with Tony Yayo. I mean to say he sucks is disrespecting the word ‘suck’ Who told him that he had any talent whatsoever?
@Oj Da Cornball so thats POP nigga B. pumper aka Lloyd Banks aint gonna hav a number 1 record ..the only rap act holdin dat label is dem “teach me how to dougie” azz niggaz haha ….and WTF IP address gotta do wit dis ?? only rap radar can see people Ip’s …B.Dot aired u out before for switching screen names…only a no life lame nigga would do that goin back and forth talkin to his self ..and dick ride a nigga
Unless EMI is short for EMInem your careers are all over
Ha ha ha EMI!!! Funny ish! G unot is well, just that. Although banks was always my fav.
So Icy, ok stop the kiddie stuff already. really
nobody cares about Yayo
Support Banks hopefully the people support the good music
Be interesting to see how much attention is given to Banks’ project and whether EMI are willing to stump up the money for decent promo.
Take it easy on the HATE JUICE my brother@AK…To many HATERS on here. CONGRATS to G-UNIT !
@mackmaine shyt my bad your correct
Let me break it down for people.
EMI is part of the Big 4 Record labels that make up the term Major.
EMI is primarily a UK based record label but also operates in the U.S
The big 4 labels are
Universal
EMI
Sony BMG (AKA Columbia Records)
Warner Music Group
Some of you might be like isn’t def jam and interscope considered a Major, well yes but the parent company is Universal for both those labels just different management.
So G unit distribution is going from Interscope to EMI, (from universal to EMI Group)
Now 50 cent still owes interscope another album, I don’t know if that will be original material or a Greatest hit type record.
As far as the shady/aftermath that was 50 cent’s deal and does not extend to G unit records. I’m not sure though if once interscope contact is fulfilled will 50 still be under shady/aftermath.
Either way its safe to say he still going to keep Chris Lighty (Violator Mgt) as his manager, so things are still going to run the same just with more support from the back end.
Budgets, promo, disc’s shipped out, album release dates, music videos etc.
congrats BANKS!
Slaughterhouse>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>G-Unit.
THOSE WHO HATE ON G-UNIT KATS JST DEPRESSED
BCZ THE MOVEMENT IN THE UNIT IS STILL ABM$$$$$
N UR FAV RAPPERS BRO HFM WILL BE HOT JUST ENJOY
THE SHOW BBB SOLD 500,000 DOWNLOADS ON ITUNES
JUST THE START MOTHER F****
@Million DJ Khaled – All i Do is Win did 1 million and??
Aslong as they make good music i don’t care which label signs them.
Since Fif was on absolutely nothing on Recovery and BISD was a flop,
and because Dre was hardly on Recovery and Detox is never coming out,
and since Em worked with pop stars and had little Dre on his last album
(AND MIND YOU, I AM STILL A STAN!!!)
Aftermath is going down the toilet, if not already flushed.
WHAT IS THE MUSIC WORLD COMING TO!!!?!!!
@DamnDog Jesus and G-Unit dont really go together
50 Cent has one album left with Interscope then he will have to decide on what he does…
Lloyd Banks’s new album is going to be amazing.. i can feel it..
After Gun Powder Guru, It seems like Yayo’s next album could be good…
EMI Music has Snoop Dogg (Priority Records), Ice Cube (Lench Mob/Capitol Records), Cypress Hill (Capitol Records), & More.
P.S. Everyone Hating on G-Unit are idiots…. and need to go back listenin to they shitty young money bullshit…
