But when the feds came calling to investigate Murder Inc, both the label and Lloyd’s career were put on hold. And though Lloyd was able to recover his status on the charts for a brief time, he eventually retreated from the spotlight for several years. Now with a new a new label and outlook on life, Lloyd is back, and ready to tell his story to Unsung.
