David Banner - Yao Ming
Artist: David Banner
Featuring: Lil Wayne , 2 Chainz
Producer: David Banner
Album: The Make Believe Album
Label: b.i.G. f.a.c.e.
Even if Chris Paul and Dwight Howard are the talk of the league now, making a song honoring one of the most influential and popular athletes of this generation in Yao Ming is one tall order. However, Mississippi native, David Banner succeeded by gathering up fellow southern rapper 2 Chainz (formerly known as Tity Boi) and someone who knows all about making songs about ballers, Lil Wayne (remember Kobe Bryant?). In trademark fashion Banner produces the track himself and provides his southern collaborators with a true banger to rap over, layering marching band percussion over a woozy horn line. On the mic Banner contributes a solid opening verse, while Chainz and Weezy take control of the track with their flow while lacing the beat with punchlines that touch on everything from their wealth and attractive women to, well, their wealth and more women. Somewhere in China Yao Ming’s banging this out his trunk right now. Banner’s forthcoming album, The Make Believe Album has yet to be given a release date, however, keep your eyes and ears locked on The DJBooth for the latest.

I like this beat, but David Banner was weak in the beginning. Weezy was good, but it sounds like something he did already. It's cool...

Big fan of the production. Not sure if I can say the same thing for 2 Chainz contribution or the song itself. More Banner, less friends.

Production is crazy, Banner's verse was alright, but you pretty much know what your getting with Weezy, and 2 Chainz so I guess my expectations were already set low as far as the verses here.
