DMX had everyone scratching their heads when he completely dismissed Lloyd Banks as a lyricist.

Banks may have some flaws, but diminishing the PLK's pen game is an odd choice.

When Banks first heard about X's diss he brushed it off.

Later, he gave some insight into why X may have come after him like that.

So because I didn’t come to the studio to work when HE reached out..I’m not that good? 😂

So because I didn’t come to the studio to work when HE reached out..I’m not that good," Banks typed.

Then he explained he couldn't because "I had a flight to catch."

I didn’t..I had a flight to catch 🤷🏽‍♂️ https://t.co/4ARRCgciFr

Lloyd's G-Unit boss 50 Cent has said Banks' career suffered because he was lazy and unmotivated.  This may have been one of those times a little initiative and a ticket change may have been in order.
