Video: Lloyd Banks f. Lloyd (Young Goldie), “Any Girl”
First off, where is this video taking place that Lloyd banks is literally just finding gorgeous girls randomly everywhere? When he said “any girl” we thought he meant that he had no preference, ergo we expected to see some dubious females but this dude lives in like the Brazil of the south or something. Then again the sound of Lloyd’s (Young Goldie’s) voice usually works like a super potent mutant pheromone bringing all manners of fine women in from land, sea and sky. We don’t know how we missed the call but we wont ever let that happen again.

Lloyd, “Nobody Better” (DJ Tags) MP3
As your good friends, we feel that we need to warn you that this song from DJ Storm’s Desert Storm South Radio Pt 9 will blow out your subwoofers. We know that its summer time and you want be able to help yourself from blasting this with the windows down as you cruise in your ‘89 Chevy but nothing is more embarrassing than blown out speakers. So be be careful friends. Lloyd is once again killing it on the heavy bass with the voice that barely goes above a whisper. We’re so into this song because its essentially about feelin’ yourself— not in a dirty way but just enough to know that there’s nobody better than you. We’re all about that kind of self confidence! P.S. Beware of the tags!

Lloyd Banks f. Lloyd, “Any Girl” MP3
When we heard Lloyd featuring Lloyd we were hoping that Lloyd (Polite Jr.) had cloned himself and was now singing on a track with said clone. We imagine a special private performance in Suite903 headquarters featuring both of them and then it got crazy. We totally forgot about Lloyd Banks (whoops!) We’re trying to pin down where we’ve heard that those high pitched synths before. It’s either the noise our Tamagotchis used to make when they were so hungry they were about to die OR our favorite setting on the Casio: space organ. What we’re trying to say is: we’re into it; we’re into anything Lloyd really. It’s becoming a small obsession we can’t shake but how can you not love that soft rasp. He sounds at home in between heavy bass and the sound of a slot machine in a Mario video game. We’re trying to come up with a list of more people we’d like to hear Lloyd collaborate with this summer. We’ll get back to you with that ASAP. Of course The-Dream is on that list but we gotta spread our wings and get weird with it. Leave us some cool suggestions in the comments.

Bruno Mars f. Lloyd, “Dance In The Mirror” MP3
Bruno and Lloyd singing is like chocolate covered pretzels, the perfect opposites. Lloyd’s rasp has long been on our Suite903 sexy mixtape and Bruno’s voice is a great counterpoint. We’re sort of melting in our chairs right now but that may just be this heatwave weather. We wish we had the time to dance in the mirror for our lovers every morning but we’re usually running around nude trying to put on underwear and eat toast at the same time.

Video: Lloyd f. Mystikal, “Set Me Free”
When gathering the ingredients for the authentic ramble of Mardi Gras, there is never a shortage of tuba players and snare drummers to bring the noise. Instruments are just a small part of the region-specific sound of “Set Me Free” which features the missing link to New Orleans rap, the incomparable, Mystikal. Young Goldie lightly riffs about random happenings like being at the top of his game to clutching his main chick, as if all in one breath. He’s matching the same rapid fire verbage of Mystikal who flies off the handle as if he never put on a set of silver bracelets for six years. Check out Lloyd set a proper welcoming home in the video below.

J Futuristic f. Lloyd, “Go Go Go” MP3
J Futuristic can’t possibly mess things up with assists from Jim Jonsin and Lloyd. Jim hooked up J with a similar 8-bit melody he tailor-made for T.I.. Why else should we be concerned? His rap sheet got a lot longer after he bum rushed with “1st Name, Last Name.”
J’s too cool to catch another fail because he relaxes his flow like Grand Hustle’s big homie, but it’s even more uncanny to Tip’s affiliate, Yung LA or even Shawty Lo also known to purr his way through his own tales from the Trap. Listen to J get futuristic for the females with Young Goldie.

Video: “Everybody’s Haitian” PSA
It has been stressed that the earthquake in Haiti was catastrophic not just because of the immediate damage, but moreso the years of recovery and reconstruction that will be needed. Now, more than ever, is the time to remind folks that people are still homeless and the country is still in disaster mode. Rocawear and Program LLC got together to make a video featuring the story of earthquake victim Martine Cathune as told by several artists and personalities including Lloyd, J. Cole and Wale. We’d like to shout out our girl Miss Info whose Creole at the ending was impeccable. Mostly, we just want everyone to keep donating and keep doing whatever you can to help. It’s easy to forget about something when it’s no longer a twitter TT but donating isn’t a trend. For those who still have families and friends in Haiti, it’s an everyday struggle. Watch after the jump.
Audio: Trazz F/Lloyd “Internet Love”
When New York rap isn’t under fire, too bad the rest of the state goes unnoticed. Trazz doesn’t get salty like the ground in his snow-ridden hometown of Buffalo, he’s got bangers like his latest with Lloyd to remind you that the Big Apple stretches beyond the five boroughs.
Don’t let the title of the cyber love opus fool you though, it’s not the same ol’ song sung by rapping technophiles. History has proven you can’t trust songs that involve sexting, e-mailing nude pics, or the flavor of the month, Chatroulette. We come to expect a sample of Zapp & Roger’s “Computer Love,” followed by a subsequent video of models spending what brain cells are left on their pewters. The Trazz twist is a little less predictable. Listen below.

Lloyd & Young Money, “Bedrock Part 2″ MP3
Because we always got your back, we’ve found a way for you to excuse the million times you play this song everyday. It’s a new version! Actually it’s the perfect version: MORE Lloyd. The only thing we’re wondering about is why Young Goldie? Does he mean hot like a young Goldie Hawn, because we get that. Whatever, this version is crack. Never mind that the metaphors are kinda corny, it’s Lloyd!! You weren’t even listening to what he was saying anyway. Personally, they could’ve skipped the Weezy and Drizzy verses. Got a fever; NEED MORE LLOYD. -Judnick Mayard

Lloyd f. J. Holiday, “Take It Off”
We might be grasping for straws here, but two dudes telling one girl to take it off seems a little frat party rape-y, no? Aside from a unfair numbers game, this still knocks cause “Lloyd Mayweather” and J. Holiday are singing over some kind of space-thump that sounds like Jeezy should be rapping over it, and have probably creating the trap star equivalent of New Jack Swing. New Trap Swing? Oh shit, we on one!
