David Banner

The gruff-voiced Mississippi MC has a new one due out May 22 that he’s selling through his website for a suggested donation of $1. But if Banner’s business is going indie, the guest list on Sex, Drugs & Video Games suggests he’s still thinking mainstream: Lil Wayne, Chris Brown, Snoop Dogg, the Game, and A$AP Rocky all put in appearances, as they may (or may not!) at this album-release party.
