A.O.N. 3: DESPITE MY MISTAKES

Lloyd Banks

Eighteen tracks of dusty, noir-inflected boom bap. A gravel-voiced veteran weighing his legacy against the cold reality of the streets.

April 30, 2025

A heavy, introspective gravity that balances street-hardened defiance with the weariness of a long-distance runner.

Moments Worth Listening For
The transition into the title track where the drums tighten and the piano loop becomes more urgent.
The five-minute lyrical endurance test on Art of Rap where the beat strips back to just a kick and snare.
The haunting vocal sample that opens 1982, setting a nostalgic but weary tone for the record.
Where This Album DepartsEach spoke is a trait. The orange shape shows where this album pulls away from — or holds to — the rest of the artist’s catalogue. Tap for more.
