David Banner - Play

Sharing the same name as The Incredible Hulk, and if you've witnessed his live performances you'll appreciate the similarities, and purveyor in chief of the downright filthy Mississippi sound, David Banner marks his UK recording debut with the release on February 6th of his new single "Play". "Play" is taken from Banner's soon to be released new album "Certified", and the single's accompanying video will give you a good indication as to where Banner's at, ie all over the place…but in a good way.

For David Banner there is no alternative. The ambitious rap trailblazer continues to represent his beloved Mississippi with a pride and ferocity that has made the rapper/producer one of hip-hop's most intriguing and in-demand talents. Who would have guessed that a troubled yet energetic kid from Jackson, Mississippi would single-handedly carry a depressed state known as the epitome of Southern racism and poverty into a respected source of hip hop music? Who would have bet that Banner would storm the Billboard album charts with his gold-certified 2003 major label debut Mississippi—The Album (SRC) and critically hailed follow-up MTA2: Baptized in Dirty Water? Most recently David Banner has witnessed his stock rise as a much sought after track master, crafting high profile gems for the multi-platinum likes of T.I. ("Rubber Band Man"), and Nelly ("E.I.- The Tipdrill Remix").
