Lloyd Banks - I Don't Deserve You
Artist: Lloyd Banks
Featuring: Jeremih
Producer: J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League
Album: H.F.M. (Hunger for More 2)
Label: G-Unit/EMI/Capitol
Ah, l’amour… If you need proof that budding romance can turn even the biggest braggart into a bundle of nerves, look no further than Lloyd Banks’ latest single, which finds the self-proclaimed player who brought us Beamer Benz, or Bentley and other swagger-drenched bangers telling a new girl “I Don’t Deserve You.” Backed by J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League‘s fluttering string samples, the G-Unit alumnus lets his sensitive side shine, showering the woman in question with compliments (“Like candy to the corn, yeah, you’re finger-lickin’ fine.”) while wondering whether he’ll really be able to commit himself to a single shawty: “I got a sex drive that won’t allow me to latch… you deserve way more than that, I’ll just fall back.” Providing moral support as Banks struggles with whether to give her his heart, R&B hitmaker Jeremih laces the chorus with his inimitable brand of smoothness. H.F.M. 2 (Hunger for More 2), is available now in stores and online; fans should also be sure to check out the single’s official video, which premiered today.

Banks new album is super solid, but there weren't many records after "Beamer Benz or Bentley" that are viable radio records. While "I Don't Deserve You" is a bit sleepy for my liking, the record makes sense as a single selection.

I understand the single selection, but he could have rode off the GOOD Friday momentum with fellow callaborator and released "So Forgetful" with Ryan Leslie. More of a warm weather track though, so I'm hopeful to see another single come out of this album with such low sales (probably not).
However, this track is smooth and the ladies will dig it. It has grown on me, so I can see that liking continue if I hear it somewhere other than my computer speakers/ipod. |

J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League is becoming legendary...Every track is the picture of music...like seeing sound! This song didn't even need an emcee to be dope but Banks still did his thing at a high enough level.

Banks know to talk to the ladies, we've already seen that withe "Karma", "Smile" and "Help".
Now, this track with Jeremih improves that. But Banks...Jeremih...he don't derserve U ^^ |

lloyd banks......what can i say. loved him on his very first album release when g-unit was hotter than a walk on the sun but since then i havent felt him lyrically. something is missing(maybe he died when buck left) not really feeling this one overall. dang what happened!

Ah, the mandatory "I need a single women love" single. With that in mind, I didn't mind this at all. Banks thing clearly isn't romance, but the beat's mellow, Lloyd sounds as smooth as ever and he does fine on the verses. Nothing to get worked up about either way.

Its a smooth banger for the ladies. Banks voice is very tricky, it doesnt fit all tracks but it works on this.

When I here those synth strings I want to hear The Mad Violinist because I know he would have made a hell of a difference.

This is much better that I had predicted. Jeremih fits perfectly on this song.

Lloyd's strong suit is most def. not R&B love anthems. Jeremih could have done this song by himself. no Lloyd banks needed.

i agree with why this for a single
beamer benz or bently any girl i would have liked to have seen "so forgetful" or "Sooner or later" i dont get this..i mean i like the song..but it doesnt have a single feel and unfortunately "celebrity" is going to come sooner or later... |

A smooth groove track you can literally play with a chick in the whip and enjoy. Bobbing of the head is unavoidable to this beat, and JUSTICE League did a very good job on this. Jeremih fits the track, Banks flow was smooth as ever and had some simple phrases for his usual style, but its more so a ladies track. Video's ending contradicts the whole track, but makes sense for Banks usual style.

Banks has impresed me recently, great album, but i think hes not suited for tracks like this, he needs to stick to his own style, not chase the money.

Banks was ok, J.U.S.T.I.C.E league's production was sweet but nothing new. Jeremih on the hook is what got me hooked (duh!), but that's what kinda saved it for me.
2.5, round up to 3 |
