Pain

David Banner returned in a big way this week, dropping his Before The Box mixtape, a precursor to his upcoming album, The God Box, but also an impressive full length in itself. As we've heard with more recent releases like "Black Fist," and the "Fuck La Policia" remix, Banner is more inspired and politically-charged than ever, and that energy continues throughout the tape, particularly on pain.

With powerful guest spots from Coke Bumaye, Tito LO, and Big K.R.I.T., the record is effective as much in its captivating vocal performance as it is in its mix of heartbreaking and motivational words. look out for The God Box May 13th.

Quotable Lyrics:
The home of the free black folks
That's a lie
So why we get high
Why we kill each other?
'Cause we learn that shit from you
You damn racist motherfuckers
