Lloyd Polite, Jr. (born January 3, 1986 in New Orleans, Louisiana) is an American R&B singer, rapper, dancer and actor signed to a joint venture between Interscope, Polow da Don's label Zone 4 and his own label Young Goldie Music. First discovered at the age of 12 when in the group N-Toon with his brother, he released his debut solo album Southside in 2004. He followed this with 2007's Street Love and 2008's Lessons in Love. His fourth studio album, King of Hearts, was released July 2011.

He was born in New Orleans, Louisiana on January 3, 1986, to Robin Polite and Lloyd Polite Sr. His father died when he was at the age of two, and he moved with his mother and older sister Brandy to Atlanta, Georgia.

Lloyd was discovered by Joyce Irby in 1996 and at the age of 14 was in the pre-teen group N-Toon, alongside younger brother Chuckie. The group won Nickelodeon's cancelled show Double Dare 2000 against No Authority, and the group was signed to DreamWorks Records. Although two singles were released ("Ready" and "Shoulda Been My Girl"), their debut album Toon Time went unnoticed due to a lack of promotion from the label. The group eventually disbanded, and Lloyd began shopping around for a solo deal. He was soon signed to MCA Records with his first single to be "Young Girl". Unfortunately, as MCA Records dissolved into its parent company, Geffen Records, many of the artists on its roster were let go, including Lloyd. However, using "Young Girl" as a demo, he landed a new recording contract with Irv Gotti at The Inc./Def Jam Records.

"Southside", a duet with label mate Ashanti, became Lloyd's debut single and an R&B hit. The video was number one on BET's 106 & Park, where Lloyd and Ashanti performed the song live. The follow-up single was "Hey Young Girl", which wasn't as successful as "Southside". His childhood friend Ciara was in the video, and he is in the video of her hit "1, 2 Step". Both singles appeared on his 2004 debut album, titled Southside, which performed relatively poorly. A third single was never announced. After that, Lloyd appeared singing hooks on singles for label mate Ja Rule on "Caught Up" as well as on rapper Tango Redd's "Let's Cheat". He also made an appearance in R&B singer Sammie's video "You Should Be My Girl".

In 2006, a newly-recorded track titled "You" surfaced, featuring Lil Wayne (an alternate version featured Tango Redd). The single gained airplay on BET Late and it was #1 on 106 & Park. Lloyd's second studio album, titled Street Love, was released on March 13, 2007. The second single "Get It Shawty" was also very successful, reaching the top twenty on the pop charts. By the time the third single "Player's Prayer" was released, interest in the album had diminished. and with lack of promotion the song proved to be unsuccessful.

Lloyd's third album Lessons in Love was released in August 2008. The song "How We Do It (Around My Way)" was promoted as a single in early 2008, but only appeared on select versions of the album. "Girls Around the World" was the next single, another collaboration with Lil Wayne.

Lloyd has made guest appearances on television shows, most notably on the hit show One On One, an episode of Wild 'N Out on June 21, 2007 and on a show called Gotti's Way on VH-1. In an interview Lloyd indicated that he has about twenty tattoos, which include a picture of his father, the logo of his company Young Goldie Music and a "rebel baby angel".

2. Lloyd was a Christian modern rock/pop group who blended vocals with acoustic and electric guitars. Lloyd was formed when two original members of the rock/funk/pop group "Imagine This" teamed up with a new guitarist (who also was with I.T. for a time) and bassist to form Lloyd. The name change is necessary as Lloyd strays quite a distance from the Imagine This.

Yo yo yo

Deep in the cut
With the chrome on the thrown
Down in Decatur
Where the haters get shown

Ride around the spots
Where the pot gets grown
Now I'm feelin blowed
Smoke by the zone

Misfit dudes by the rules reapply
Creeps low wit cruise control when I'm high
Brand new 22 shoes on the ride
Gotta get blatta tatted
Hit up green rise

[Hook]
So I'm ridin down this long country road
Followin rainbows
Tryna reach us in gold
I gotta grind hard
'Til this shit gets sold
Just sit back relax
N watch it unfold
So I'm gone hit up the studio
Write about 24
'Til these hits get throwed
Cash checks
Get a boat
Betta keep it afloat
don't end up bankrupt and broke

[Chorus]

Eventhough my 20/20 vision is keen

These hoes is G'd up
And they down to fuck
So roll that weed up

[Chorus]

I drive around places where cannabis grows, relax, and smoke it.

I'm surrounded by misfits that follow my rules, they sneak up and work quietly while I am high. I also recently got new shoes and tattoos, and I visit green rise.

I'm driving down the country road, following my dreams to become rich. I have to work hard until my work is sold. Then I will sit back, relax, and watch the events unfold. Afterward, I will work in the studio to create new hits, and cash checks, and buy a boat, which I have to keep afloat so as not to become bankrupt and broke.

Now we deep on the creep Down in Martin Luther King Watch for the curb and the swirb on lean Gotta hit the scene So fresh so clean In exclusive Irv and Jeffery jeans Cash rules everything around me
I'm being discreet down on Martin Luther King. I'm careful about the curbs and leaning. I have to go to popular places and remain spotless with Irv and Jeffery jeans as cash rules everything around me.

Shawty you can catch us in the back of the club (uh huh) Fresh to death Nigga pourin it up (yea) All the killaz straight showin me love And the biggest bad bitches all wantin to fuck (wantin to fuck)
You can find me in the back of the club, looking fresh and death, and someone offers me a drink. Killers recognize my talent and are fond of me while bad girls want sex.

Look shawty I'm dangerous Yo nigga hate me 'Cause you prolly his main bitch Fuck who you came wit Let me explain this I prefer the block But ill pop the stainless Nigga got em creepin out the club real slow Bitches shoot what they started Askin can they go Hell yea my nigga Lloyd These hoes is G'd up And they down to fuck So roll that weed up
They know I'm authentic, and I'm ready to be with someone romantically. I can flirt anywhere, even in alleys with excitement until the partner loses their senses. Shawty, understand that I'm dangerous, and guys probably hate me for being with their significant others. I don't care who you came with, let me clarify that I prefer being on the block, but I can pop the stainless steel gun to assert my power. I have my enemies creeping slowly out of the club, and ladies just want to follow. They are ready to have intercourse, so let's smoke cannabis.

I'm a hustler baby (hustler baby) I'm on the grind And down for mine I'm a hustler baby (hustler baby) Gotta get the abs And get that cash Ima hustler baby (ima hustler baby) I'm accusin peeps Gotta stack my cheese Ima hustler baby Ima hustler (I'ma hustler baby)
I'm a hard-working individual, on the grind to earn. I'm sharp and determined to achieve success. I'm accusing folks of undermining me, and I must stack my money. I'm a hustler by heart, and nothing can change that about me.
