Already strong with first single 'Speaker', David Banner finds the right time to release his fifth album this October.
- Jul 31, 2007
AceShowbiz - Releasing "Speaker" to give first impact, David Banner is ready to release the full length-version. The rapper's fifth studio album "The Greatest Story Ever Told" will be dropped October 9 via SRC/Universal Motown.
Beside working with Snoop Dogg, Akon and Lil Wayne in the first single "Speaker", Banner also tied collaboration with Cool & Dre, UGK, Chris Brown, Jim Jones and Nitti. He also got behind the panel himself claiming that he "likes to change music".
�Everybody wants to hear the hits and I got �em,� said Banner of the new record. �But I wouldn�t be calling it �The Greatest Story� if it also wasn�t truthful. My fans know I�m going to be telling it straight-up however I�m coming.�
Banner will be one of the performers to present live tour Rock the Bells that has started since July 26. Others joining him are Wu-Tang Clan, Rage Against the Machine, Pharoahe Monch, Slum Village, Jedi Mind Tricks and many others.
