It's not PG-Unit:

"I only do two at a time now. I have to pace myself. I might want to have kids one day."

Click here to read Playboy.com's review of Lloyd Bank's Rotten Apple.

By Pat Sisson

G-Unit rapper Lloyd Banks has an X-rated mind and the world at his fingertips. Raised by his Puerto Rican mother in the same Queens neighborhood as his friends and fellow G-Unit soldiers Tony Yayo and 50 Cent, Banks was drawn to hip-hop early on and quickly developed his signature aggressive style. Years of working the mixtape circuit, touring relentlessly and dropping guest verses on multi-platinum albums like 50 Cent's Get Rich or Die Tryin' paid off in 2004 with the release of Banks's solo debut, Hunger For More. But Banks hasn't stopped striving, declaring that "his only competition is himself." On the eve of the release of Rotten Apple, his long-awaited follow-up, Banks broke down his game for Playboy.com, telling us his Vegas secrets, how not to fool around backstage and how to keep it "street."

1. You produced an award-winning interactive porn video called Groupie Love. Have you ever made your own sex tape?

Lloyd Banks: I never did. Girls have asked me, but I think that if one is going to come out, I want to be the one who plans it. I don't want any tapes to come out with random shit. I don't want to be like Paris Hilton.

2. When was your fist time having sex and what were the circumstances?

Banks: The first time I didn't really know what I was doing. I was like 11 or 12. Afterward, my mother was going through my clothes in the laundry room and found some condoms and asked me why I had them. I said I was doing the deed. Then she got a cucumber out of the refrigerator and showed me what to do. After that point, I could go to my mom and ask her questions. I didn't have my father around, so she was the mother and the father. And we didn't have all that sex education and stuff on TV. We just had McGruff when I was coming up. He isn't going to help teach you about sex.

3. Have you had a lot of threesomes or more than that?

Banks: Yes. The most I've ever had is five. Las Vegas, man. [Laughs] Shout-out to Las Vegas. That was an example of me falling victim to the situation. I was young and fresh on the road with the hottest rap crew in the world. A lot of those temptations knocked at my door. I've slowed down now. I only do two at a time now. I have to pace myself. I might want to have kids one day.

4. You grew up with 50 Cent and Tony Yayo. When you were coming up, did any one of you have more game with the ladies than the others?

Banks: That's me. If they tell you anything else, they're lying. Girls like guys for different reasons. Some like the loud guy, some like the quiet guy and some like the funny guy. I was all of them wrapped into one, I guess. And I'm a good bullshitter. I know how to talk. At the same time, we all had our girls.

5. Touring the world with G-Unit, what country provided the best lay and was the best place to hook up?

Banks: I'm half Puerto Rican, and I have to say my experiences in Puerto Rico were amazing. The weather, the water and the women -- I felt like a Puerto Rican when I was there. I felt like I was at home. I just wish I knew how to speak Spanish. That's my New Year's resolution. I missed out on a lot of women not knowing how to communicate, so next time around, I'll know the pickup lines.
