He introverted.
Being on top of the world when you introverted can be hard.
Not everybody trying to be 6ix9ine and have the whole world watching your moves.
I couldn't handle that shit.
You don’t need to use social media.

Even game has a bigger celeb status than banks. And game felt like banks could outrap him.
Em even wanted to take him under his wing. Banks was killing every feature on the group album
That's how a lot of rappers, musicians, etc. get taken advantage of as well. They either don't understand the business part of it or aren't interested in it for one reason or another and have other people do it for them.I'm not talking about Lloyd Banks specifically, but you have to consider that some rappers just aren't smart.
Some people are good at writing rhymes and rapping, but they have zero business acumen.
Banks peak would be what Fab became, niggas can rap but something is missing.Yall make some good points but do yall think Banks could've been a bigger/better artist?
Hov's protege (Kanye) became a mega star, Wayne's protege (Drake) became a megastar, meanwhile I don't even think Banks was mentioned in our "top 50 rappers" tournament.
Did Banks live up to his potential?
Cosign and I think the disconnect with 50 is that 50 was always more ambitious and the others didnt want the world. They just wanted to get out the hood, buy they moms a crib in the burbs and never have to worry about the streets or money again.
Banks, Buck and yayo had platinum albums, and made $10 million before they hit 30. There's no need for them to go on after that because they've done everything they could in music and reached their dreams and there is nothing wrong with that.
