Around the same time Lloyd Banks released his sophomore album 'Rotten Apple' in 2006 Lloyd father had died. The was 50 Cent treated Lloyd after his father death could have ruin their relationship. 50 insisted that Banks get back to work soon. 50 Cent said "All right he passed away, but you can't just go home and stay home. Ask Kanye, his mother passed away while his record was at a peak point. If he didn't go on tour, he wouldn't be the Kanye you know right now. He worked his way through that situation the world doesn't stop". Banks admitted in 2010 that he had considered quitting rapping at his father passing. Banks also realize why 50 said the thing he had said after his father had died. 50 was just telling me to 'push on push on' no matter how much you have or how good you are doing, you are going to go through this and be devastated.
