Though he's not attached to G-Unit, Lloyd Banks proved that the PLK title still sticks with Course Of The Inevitable. The 2021 album marked his first studio album in 11 years and fans never forgot about him in that time. The project boasted appearances from lyrical mainstays – Freddie Gibbs, Benny The Butcher, Styles P and Roc Marciano. The collaborators, both new and old, helped Banks as he showcased that he solidified his place in rap history.
The following year, Lloyd Banks returned with the sequel, Course Of The Inevitable 2. Once again, he locked in with fierce lyricists who only forced him to step his game up. Benny appeared, again, along with Conway The Machine, Jadakiss, Dave East, Vado, and Tony Yayo. The second installment in the Course Of The Inevitable series confirmed Lloyd Banks wasn’t about to head out on another 10+ year hiatus. But, even as fans continue to stream COTI 2 heavily, Banks still has more in store for his dedicated fanbase.
Lloyd Banks Announces New Album
On Friday, March 17th, Lloyd Banks confirmed that COTI is a trilogy. He shared a trailer for his forthcoming project, Course Of The Inevitable 3: Pieces Of My Pain on his Instagram page. The dramatic black-and-white teaser features a voiceover from Brandon Chastang, who provides a passionate motivational speech that speaks directly to the core of Banks’ latest project. “When you look in the mirror, you are alone. No friends, no family. Just you,” he says.
As Chastang continues to speak about the inner battle that people face as eerie production from Cartune Beatz plays in the background. “Stay the course, no matter how long it takes,” Chastang adds. “Through the ups and downs, embrace pain. Embrace the fear of the unknown. Everything you go through is a lesson. It’s never a loss.” Lloyd Banks didn’t announce a release date for COTI 3, though he provided fans the option to device when it should drop. Perhaps, we’ll see it arrive sometime this summer.
