  • Summary: This is the solo debut for Banks, a member of G Unit.
Score distribution:
  1. Positive: 7 out of 10
  2. Negative: 0 out of 10
  1. While it's not better than 50's national debut or G-Unit's album, it's certainly no worse.
  2. An assured debut that scores as much for what it doesn't do as it does for its low-key, insidious rhymes and chrome-gleaming rhythmical clatter. [24 Jul 2004, p.49]
  3. The Hunger for More is another solid release from the crew and is a couple steps down from 50 Cent's Get Rich or Die Tryin' and a step above G-Unit's Beg for Mercy.
  4. 60
    While Banks's wicked wordplay is impressive, his one-liners get him only so far. [Jun/Jul 2004, p.134]

    this album is raw gutter you gotta love it i love his gentle but precise delivery also the combination of straight lyrical diversity and over all slickness i nead music thats really relaxing and that falls into the catagory my favourite tracks would be if you so gangsta and till the end my opinion is that lloyd banks is equally talented if not more than fifty 10 out of ten till the end Expand

    I like the C.D.. I dont know why or how come.. but it was way better then i would of expected expecially from G-Unit. Better then 50 cents C.D.s put 2gether fav songs: Til The End, Work Magic, Die One Day, I Get High, Im So Fly and Karma Expand

    This is a SOLID album, banks does everything he needs to do..theres a mixture of mad different types of sogns.party sogns, hood songs, chick songs, and real songs about his life...Only reason i gave it a 7 was because "Best Of Lloyd Banks pt.1" was SOOOOOOOO good that i expected this album to be hte hottest thing i ever heard, but at teh end of the day 7 outta 10 is good Expand

    "Banks raps like every verse depends on his career." True. He feels stressed at the point the CD seems rushed. VERY rushed.
