Lloyd Banks jumped on Twitter today and said he was hanging it up.

But, apparently, it was all a troll of the media.
He got back on Twitter this evening and posted a video of Ric Flair's famous "I will never retire!" speech.

Then he explained why he pretended he had.
Just goes to show you what a mess the industry has become..they’ll rather cover everything that happens around the music..than the actual music itself..I hope all these outlets support me when I drop..have a good day
