He is not Afro-Puerto Rican

Banks is not Afro-Puerto Rican. Afro-Puerto Ricans are black people from Puerto Rico, or people with their black ancestors from the island of Puerto Rico, not children of African-Americans who happen to have kids with a Puerto Rican of any race. The correction has been made.--Noopinonada (talk) 23:22, 3 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Interscope?

Just browsing through and I'm wondering why Interscope isn't listed in his infobox? Just because he isn't signed doesn't mean it should be removed. The infobox guidelines say to list all labels the artist has ever been signed to. Snoop isn't signed to Priority, Death Row, etc. still, but we list them. Much the same way of Dr. Dre not being signed to Death Row anymore, but we still list him. Just wondering if there was any specific reason it was removed or if the basis was "he isn't signed anymore"? --H E L LØ ŦH E R E 16:43, 16 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The Hunger For More

The article claims that the album was certified double platinum, but it only has gone platinum according to the RIAA site that the claim links too. Can some one fix this? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 134.154.171.155 (talk) 06:40, 19 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed Edit and Background information

I checked this per the below ref and as stated above the Album "The Hunger for More" (I assume unsigned is referring to since the claim is correct) appears to of only been Certified Platinum NOT Double Platinum. Futhermore and I know it is not reason, however the article addressing this album specifically states and references the safe ref as Platinum.

Also the 4 million copies figure I cannot find a reference for. In this edit existing references 15 and 16 should be deleted as they are no longer relevant.

So with that being said, and excuse me if I have noobed this entire entry.

It is requested that an edit be made to the semi-protected article at Lloyd Banks. (edit · history · last · links · protection log)

This template must be followed by a complete and specific description of the request, that is, specify what text should be removed and a verbatim copy of the text that should replace it. "Please change X" is not acceptable and will be rejected; the request must be of the form "please change X to Y".

The edit may be made by any autoconfirmed user. Remember to change the |answered=no parameter to "yes" when the request has been accepted, rejected or on hold awaiting user input. This is so that inactive or completed requests don't needlessly fill up the edit requests category. You may also wish to use the {{ESp}} template in the response. To request that a page be protected or unprotected, make a protection request.

Please change

The album has since sold over 4 million copies and has been certified double platinum by the RIAA.

With

The album has since sold over 1.5 million copies ^[1] and has been certified platinum by the RIAA. ^[2]

Personal Life

Lloyd Banks dated video vixen Yaris Sanchez for 10 months

blue friday

Blue Friday is one of his official mixtapes and you can't find it in the discography section. source : lloyd bank's official youtube channel http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X0kVhjV_WXs&feature=context-chv — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.83.209.173 (talk) 17:01, 6 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Basic Text Edit:

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

Please change this:

In 2010, a year later, Interscope Records reached back out back out to try to re-sing Lloyd Banks. Lloyd Banks didn't go for it and put his third album out under G-Unit Records.

to this:

In 2010, a year later, Interscope Records reached back out back out to try to re-sign Lloyd Banks. Lloyd Banks didn't go for it and put his third album out under G-Unit Records.

re-sign replacing re-sing typo is the only proposed alteration.
