MC: David Banner
Representing: Mississippi
Mixtape: Spare Clips: The Mixtape
411: David Banner is scratching the surface in Hollywood while trying to stay consistent with his music. His next LP, The Greatest Story Ever Told, will be out October 9, and he recently dropped a street record/mixtape called Spare Clips that features some of the collaborations he's done over the past year that didn't make the cut. T.I., Busta Rhymes, Rick Ross and even Tupac are found on the mixtape.
Joints To Check For:
* "Suicide Doors" (featuring UGK and Kandi). The song is pretty much on-point, but Pimp C's line "my n--s got a MySpace page" is going to make you forget every other lyric on the record. He's off the chain with his verse!
* "45" (featuring Snoop Dogg and Tupac). Banner samples 'Pac's voice but gets a new verse from the Dogg as they rhyme about the right to bear arms. That's definitely a theme on the mixtape, given its title and the name of its first track, "9 mm."
* "Anybody Can Get It" (featuring Lil Jon, E-40 and Bone Crusher). This one is a touching ballad ... nah, just playing. Of course these dudes are going to try to get as crunk as possible, with warnings of ripping the club up with unsavory characters and various other types of wilding out.
