In this clip, Tony Yayo spoke about being on Lloyd Banks’ latest album, and he reacted to Lloyd speaking about G-Unit during a GQ interview and his last conversation with 50 Cent two years ago. This led to Tony explaining that there’s only one head guy in a group, which he says is 50 Cent, and he spoke about learning from 50 Cent’s strong work ethic.

[@paradiseplayer5103]

I gotta salute a man who knows his position. Not everybody can do that because everyone wants to be the top guy. It’s hard for people to play their role and not feel jealous or secretly resent their guy in the better position. So this is what loyalty looks like. Never biting the hand that fed you. And beyond that, always remember, you have your own life. You can find ways to make your own money. Put in the work and you can have what your man has, but it’s the work that intimidates people.

[@gunnyo50]

But it's kinda sad at the same time. Yes, 50 has done a lot for these guys careers we all know that but their professional careers shouldn't just be tied to him, they're their own men outside of all of that and The Game proved that point successfully. Most ppl that's watching this doesn't want to hear Yayo dickriding to 50 all the time as it gets nauseating and a little but sickening.

[@spinnach2896]

I agree with you Boss. But for me, it's more of having "what im supposed to have", not what my man has.. If it so happens that i end up similar things to what another person has, then fine! If it doesn't, even better! As the aim is always to make the most of oneself, irrespective of what's going on in other people's lives...

[@JayBets]

Exactly! That's why most music groups and businesses fall out or even kill each other. Sometimes you just gotta know your place in life! 💯

[@betonblack3621]

I saw an interview where 50 said Lloyd Banks didn’t wanna level up. He was happy with success but didn’t want more. 50 wanted movies and all that. Banks just wanted to rap and live a good life. Banks also after his fathers death he was just depressed. Banks is one of my favorite MCs ever

[@OMAR-vk9pi]

They just had very different personalities and energy

[@sleepisthecousinofdeath7395]

Banks is the realest person to ever become famous.

[@JohnDoe-gc1kt]

@SpacePurpBarney I understand everything you said but here is where the problem comes in. If you aren't growing you're shrinking. The world around you will always be changing.

[@jasonvoorhies6431]

@SpacePurpBarney nah it wasn’t cos of that. 50 said Banks would out out albums and mixtapes and he was arguably the most talented in the crew and he wouldn’t make a video! This was in the era where the video helped carry the song. They wouldn’t look to get involved with other things but Banks is like Eminem. Low-key and doesn’t want to be a mogul but even Em with all his success knew you had to go on tour and put out videos.

[@bennfranksbeatz1581]

Banks was just lazy

[@Restecpa]

God bless Yayo for reaching the level of maturity where he can speak like this on camera. He's openly accepting that he's a soldier and that 50's habits made him a general. He talks about being on time which is something that everybody can relate to, and anybody can fix with little effort.

[@samueljones3668]

@504 Certified Big Dog So because Yayo won't slander 50 and only talks positively about his childhood friend and has major respect for him. He a yes man ? The fuck is your definition of yes man.

[@unclepitch]

the more I hear from yayo recently, the more respect I develop for him. I've always respected the man but he's a real one for sure. it takes a real man to know his place, especially when you're not the top dog. keep preaching yayo, hopefully the youth and new generation will listen to your wisdom and experience

Wow, do you know how humble you have to be to come to this realization and say this for the world to hear? Yayo is a real one for this. Not many human beings are capable of doing what this man has done, and that is why 50 has kept him around. 50 is one of a kind, but Yayo is pretty special too. Kudos to Yayo for maturing and gaining such a respectable perspective.

[@dex.cameron1855]

Tony is so right about not being late, even when it comes to a regular 9 to 5. Its better to be 10 minutes early, than to be 10 minutes late. To be early is to be on time, to be on time is to be late. Grind on Yayo ✌🏽

[@majinoozaru]

bro you can be on time all you want having the best work ethic and trying to excel on a 9 to 5 they will still fire you, just a number

[@dex.cameron1855]

@majinoozaru2048 Real talk, no doubt. I feel you on that. It doesn't matter when they are ready to let you go. I hate to say that it's the nature of business, but it is. Still, I never gave those clowns the pleasure of firing me because I came to work late.

[@KD_SWAGGER]

Props to 50 Cent on his determination, vision and work ethic. On the contrary, 50 Cent needs to realize not everyone has the same mindset as him. To each their own. Some like apples, others like oranges. Let Lloyd Banks & Tony Yayo be who they are. Accept them for who they are. Loyalty above all. Stuff like this makes me appreciate The LOX even more.

[@patrickfalls6819]

50 cent cannot accept complacency because he would end up carrying those who are complacent while he put in the work to achieve more. The LOX is not a good comparison. They are on the same level and wavelength. No single person was a mega star, putting in more work, and having to carry the group.

[@FediMayn]

Yeah, let us tell 50 how to move whahah. sit down boy!!!

yup i like this Yayo. everything he said is absolutely correct. you cannot be mad at people who are successful.. while u are sleeping and sitting on your couch, they dont sleep , they are putting the work in. just because u see them smiling in interviews, u dont realize what they have to do when the cameras go off. 50 is 50 because of the work he is willing to put in and its a lot of work , u have to be of a particular mindset to do what successful people do

I’m not saying we all should not be going out there and getting yours, because we all should be grinding for yours.

[@Bossbrainent]

Liste ing to yayo I just realised he was one of the good guys that came from the hood and just wanted to get out and never wanted no trouble and definitely it happened for him he made it out. I also picked it up that he is one friend anyone would want around a friend who is never jealous of his friends success but believes if he works like that he did get some too. That's why fif keeps looking out for him . People will rather hate succesful people trying to be like them than to accept that we all can't be the same so rather learn to be something similar
