David David David David Banner



Accompanied by Brooklyn's own, Maino, and not-so-surprise guest Young Joc, Mr. Banner ripped the stage last night at the Knitting Factory, and despite my late arrival I had the pleasure to catch the end of a very shirtless, and sweaty performance. Banner blessed us with high-octane rock renditions of "Like a Pimp" and "Suicide Doors." (I know it sounds nuts!) The freshly razed rapper was also bent on convincing us that this Mississippi boy could rap, spitting a cappella to let his bars really sink in (and then saying " Don't listen to anyone who says David Banner can't rap!") He then proceeded to make it rain Moet on the crowd, and did a very personal walk through of the crowd enabling some of us to sneak dubs. The verdict? Twas a good night.
