BEANIE SIGEL, 50 CENT AND JAY-Z

When I heard BEANIE SIGEL say, during a recent interview, that he would not stop going in on JAY-Z until jay replies him, I knew he meant every word. The dude is not showing any sign of stopping; and the backing he has from 50 CENT just gives it that much velocity.

Beanie sigel recently commented on the remix of jay-z’s third single off of BLUEPRINT 3, “empire state of mind” which is rumoured to feature NAS. To his understanding, he believes that jay is just trying to stir up more controversy, or more like, trying to pull someone into the beef, without that person’s knowledge.

From Beanie’s analogy, he believes that jay would take shorts at him and 50 on the track, subliminally or directly, and then, because nas would be on the track, he believes that 50 and Beans would take that as offensive, and go against nas, which would start a whole new beef.

Well, those are sigel’s analysis; how true it is, we do not know. But if I were to analyse it, if jay was planning on dissing he and 50 on that track, which beans already confirms jay would do, then him having nas on it would definitely open up a new lane of beef, and then jay would just sit back and let someone else fight his war. That was what he did with his beef with JADAKISS; by pulling sigel into it, he didn’t have to drop any diss records. He did it with CAMRON too, when he pushed TRUE LIFE in front of cam.

We can’t say much for now, because the track is not even confirmed, but the rumours about is on about every hip hop site on the internet. I know that before long, probably in the next two weeks or so, we would get some answers, and know what is really on jigga’s mind.

I do need to add something, my point of view, to this whole analogy sigel has got going; that being that I do not think nas would respond to either him or 50. If that track ever drops, if it even exists, then I think that would be a big day for jay. I say this because it was rumoured that jay wanted nas on the original version, but he(nas) declined the offer. Nas was asked about this on various interviews, but he always seemed to skip the question. For this alone, you would know that nas is not really into doing this collaboration with jay; and if you do not know why I would like to educate you a little.

Without saying too much, I would like to tell you that nas has done this same “theme song for NEW YORK” concept 3 times during his career. 2 times on his first and third albums, “illmatic”, and “I AM”, and the tracks were titled “NEW YORK state of mind”, and “NEW YORK state of mind part 2”. Then, about 3-4 years ago, he did a third one, as a collaborative effort with RAKIM, and guess who was on the track? None other than yours truly, ALICIA KEYS.

Now, does the fact that jay’s “theme song about NEW YORK” is titled “empire state of mind” ring a bell? And then he went and featured Alicia keys, the same person nas used for his third version. I think this should tell you why nas didn’t want to be on the original (which is not a real original). I think at this point I can say jay stole nas’s idea; I can even go further to say that jay is a big nas fan.

I am sorry for going off the topic; back to what I was talking about. I said I do not think nas would reply beans and 50 if it ever happened that there is a remix of “empire state of mind”, and nas was on it, and jay dissed beans and 50; if all this were to happen, I still do not think nas would reply beans if he dissed him. I wouldn’t say nas is bigger than that, but I think nas is wiser than allowing himself to be caught-up in another man’s beef.

This whole beanie sigel 50 cent rampage has had a lot of people talking, and people are concluding that 50 is just using beans to get at jay. When he was asked, beans simply said, and I quote, “if he is using me, I am using him too”. I think that is a justifiable statement, because we all know 50 got the dough, and he can afford to push all sigel’s attacks towards jay in the best possible way, and also beans is getting all the publicity surrounding 50, whether negative or positive, at least he is being talked about. If the price he has to pay for all that is to backstab a former friend, who by the way does not regard him as a friend any more, then so be it. What do you have to loose from a so called friend who had you escorted out of his concert venue, by the police? A friend that would do the same, if it meant it would take him higher up the ladder of success; nothing.

50 CENT, BEANIE SIGEL AND JAY-Z, WHAT'S UP?

The war is on, and i think 50 is going to ride it till his latest album, "before i self destruct", stops selling the peanuts it is selling. Now, the war, on the other hand, is very one sided, because JAY-Z has not responded yet.

If you don't catch my drift, i am talking about the ongoing beef between BEANIE SIGEL and 50 CENT versus JAY-Z. The funny thing is that it started off with beanie saying he just had to let some things off his chest, and he dropped a song, "average cat", which he said was not a diss record but just a song to address some personal issues between him and jay-z, his former boss.

All of a sudden, 50 saw it as a way to get some buzz because he was about to drop an album, which, by the way, dropped last week, and still flopped, compared to 50's standards(standards he created, and laid so much emphasis on through out his career).

Then, last week, they dropped a collaborative diss track aimed at jay, "go off", where 50 does the hook, and talks at the end, but beans did all the rapping.

And then, just a couple of days ago, on Sunday, beans dropped another diss record, "how i can kill jigga man". And he has dropped another one after that; saying he would not stop until jay responds.

I don't know what this would lead to, and i do not know if jay is going to respond, but i do know that 50 and beans would definitely not stop because they have a lot to gain; 50 has an album, and he needs the buzz he would get from this, and beans is working on a new album.

Another reason why i feel they are not bluffing about not stopping is because, right now, 50 sucks at rapping, but he is definitely good at clowning people, and bringing people down, which he would resort to right now; and beans can rap all day, and given all the financial support, and moral support by 50, there is no stopping him, at least for now.

Below is what 50 had to say during a recent interview, when asked what he felt about what jay-z said at the AMA's.

"He said that before," Fif explained to DJ Green Lantern. "I didn't really take that as a disrespect. If you wanna be disrespectful, just be disrespectful. I mean, once we start I'm not gonna stop. I'll make you aware of that. You see what I'm saying? I'm not the kinda guy that goes away. You understand that? So if that's the kind of energy we're getting ready to go to, then let's do it."

MORE ON THE BEANIE SIGEL AND JAY-Z BEEF.

If you didn't know that JAY-Z and his former employee, BEANIE SIGEL are at war, allow me give you a re-cap of the situation so far: Beans all of a sudden dropped a diss record aimed at jay about 4 weeks ago, titled "I'm not your average cat". On the track, he accuses jay of not visiting him at all through out his "a year and a day" jail term; he also accuses jay of not letting him off his contract when he was about to sign a deal with G-UNIT back in 2006. All in all, he accused jay of being a bad friend; talking about how he fought all jay's wars for him (from jadakiss, to nas, to camron), and when he needed jay the must, jay didn't stand for him.

Then to top it up, a couple of days ago, beans drops another diss track aimed at jay, which featured 50 CENT. On this track,which is titled "i go off", 50 talks at the end of the song; accusing jay-z of letting the money change him.

When i talked on this matter a couple of days ago, i didn't really have beanie sigels point of view in mind; i didn't understand beans struggle, until i listened to a recent interview where he addresses the matter, then i really understood his plight.

The fact that JAY-Z arranged for the police to walk beanie sigel out of his blueprint 3 concert venue is enough reason for beans to be pissed at the dude. Regardless of whether or not he and beans are no longer as close as before, why would you want to call the cops on your old buddie when he just came to watch you perform. That is some bitch move.

In the interview, he also refers back to a track kanye had on his "graduation" album where kanye goes at jay, and and accuses jay of being a jealous boss. I still wonder, till this day, how jay allowed that one to slip by.

All this people having negative things to say about this dude(jay-z), is making me believe he is really a shady guy.

50 CENT TEAMS UP WITH BEANIE SIGEL TO GO AT JAY-Z.

I knew it was just a matter of time before 50 CENT would pick up BEANIE SIGEL and make him go harder at JAY-Z. If you don't know, that is what 50 does; he uses his money and affluence to tear groups apart. He did it with the DIPSET CREW, when he got JIM JONES and JUELZ SANTANNA to go on stage with him when his beef with CAMRON was still on; he did it with PAPOOSE and REMY MA against FAT JOE (He went on radio with REMY MA and PAPOOSE and made negative comments about joe and made them laugh at it' he also promised pap a deal with G-UNIT), He promised J-Hhood a deal and made him go on stage with G-UNIT when the G-UNIT/D-BLOCK beef was on...And the least goes on.

BEANIE SIGEL and 50 CENT have a track out dissing JAY-Z, titled "I GO OFF". That is the second diss track beanie sigel would be releasing going at jay-z in the last 3 weeks.

This dude(50 cent) knows how powerful money is, so he dangles a corn infront of the donkey, and the donkey keeps moving in the direction of the corn, but never getting the corn.

50's album is dropping in days, and he needs some buzz to hype up the album, and he uses a bitter man's misery for that. Beanie sigel is currently fighting jay for not being of help to him, and also not letting him off his contract, and what does 50 do, he uses that opportunity to help Sigel amp-up what he has to say, in return for more light on him. You just watch how fast he would drop beans as soon as his 'BEFORE I SELF DESTRUCT ALBUM' drops. I just really feel bad for sigel, because this would realy not take him anywhere, unless he has a really solid plan, because i don't see anything he would gain from this.


Below is what 50 had to say at the end of the track:

"Yeah, you changed man," 50 says toward the song's completion. "You let the money change you, Jay. You used to be from Marcy, [Brooklyn] n*gga. Now you a pass the Grey Poupon a** n*gga. You don't want the shooter? I'll take him. [laughs] N*gga, feed the wolves or else the wolves feed off you. Eat your a** alive! I live by a combat's creed. Strategy. Your move, n*gga."

What 50 is said is funny, cos it's like he is talking about himself. 50 made tones of enemies once he got the money and the fame, and he is talking about the money changing someone.

I got to say i ain't on JAY'S side either, i am just saying 50 can not justify that statement. And as per beef, jay would tear him apart. It would have been more interesting to see a battle between GAME and JAY-Z.

JAY-Z RESPONDS TO BEANIE SIGEL DISS TRACK

A couple of days ago, PHILLY rapper, and former ROCAFELLA records artist, BEANIE SIGEL dropped a diss record(ain't your average cat) aimed at his former boss, JAY-Z. On the record, he talks about how jay-z has not been there for him, and how jay had no more love for the people that helped build up his dynasty.

Jay-z has commented on that in a recent interview. Below is what jay had to say:

"He has a lot to complain about," Jay jokingly said during a press conference. "Not me. Well Beanie Sigel at the time, and you can look it up if you like, just to be honest, was driving two Bentleys, I don't know how. It's impossible to drive two cars at one time with his mama in the sticks and selling 800,000 records. I don't know what more you can do for somebody at that point. What people choose to do when they attain that type of success, you know, at some point you have to look in the mirror and look at yourself. Beanie Sigel had a record deal, a record label, and a clothing line. And never went platinum, ever. I don't know in the history of rap has anyone done so much with so little. I don't know what more you can do for a person at that point. But a record deal, that's normal. A record label and a clothing line, so, if that's not pushing a person, sh*t. Thank-you."

Wow, there isn't a need for jay to drop a reply diss record, this is enough. But it's so hard that it had to come to this; former friends exposing themselves to the public. It's just so sad. I don't know what beans would do after this. But let us not forget that beans said he didn't want money from jay, he just wanted to be let out of his contract, and also some brotherly love. I guess jay is not really with all the drama that people like beanie sigel bring along with them. As i said earlier, it's just so sad.

BEANIE SIGEL DISSES JAY-Z

Concidering the number of people that have come out to talk about how shady JAY-Z is, i am starting to believe that this dude is really a cold-hearted bastard,as all these people say he is; the type to only care about himself. I would have never thought in a 100years that BEANIE SIGEL would drop a diss record taking shots at jay-z. I can remember how jay had put beans against JADAKISS around 1999-2000, not concidering the fact that jadakiss was his homie, beanie siegel went at jada like a real loyal soldier. I read an interview of jadakiss where he said that that was his must personal beef. He said it was like fighting your own brother, because he said he had been close with beans whole family; his mother, sibblings...and for him to go at beans because he had some problems with jay, was the hardest thing he had to do.

Beanie sigel dropped a diss record aimed at jay-z, clearly through the direct disses, titled "i am not your average cat", which landed online this week.
Below are some lines from the track:

"This ain't a diss record, this a real record/How it feel to get exposed -- I was the fly on the wall, I witnessed," Beans raps. "I could say sh*t to make B look at you different/And my gangster was never on trial, I was, stood up tall, no snitch/But the rapper Shawn called the police on me/Because I was front row at the Blueprint 3/I just wanted to see him emcee/Reminisce when we were the R-O-C/But he called on the c-o-p's/Not only that, he brought in the f-e-d's/So that's telling me, F-U Sig/So F you too and F Bleek three/Whether I rap or riddle out this motherf*cker -- my name good in every hood."

I think when beans says he can expose jay, we all know he could actually do that, but who would lsiten to him? Jay has a lot of people hypnotized right now(excluding me though).
At the end of the track, he talks about how jay never came to see him or wrote or called while he was in jail last year. He also said when he got out, he tried to get jay to let him off the ROCAFELLA record deal because someone wanted to sign him, and give him some big money, but jay didn't let him go. He then goes back to all the beefs he fought for jay, and all the street credibility the roc benefitted back in the 90's that could be created to him being on the label. He specifically mentions beefs like the NAS BEEF, the beef with jadakiss, and the beef with the DIPSET crew that he had to handle for jay. It's just so sad that things had to turn turn out like this. Very ugly. SUPER UGLY.

Hours after the track hit the internet, MEMPHIS BLEEK had this to say:

"Just waking up my phone going crazy over this segiel sh*t," Bleek wrote Friday (October 30) morning. "I just seen son at power house wasn't nothing now its something..... I'm lost on that.... Guess that's how the rap game work....F*ck bleek 3 haaa that's a good one...And for the rec....I can't diss that's my nigg we gotta get up an chop it up that's all..He know me that's all I could say..." (Memphis Bleek's Twitter)


And you should know that nobody can talk about jay-z without fabolous butting in. I guess it's because jay has helped him in the past. below is what fab had to say:

"I jus heard a JayZ diss record by Beanie Siegel..," Fab wrote Friday (October 30). "That's ill to me.. And the record is hard! Never thought i would hear a JayZ diss song by Beanie Siegel....WOW..jus wow.. (Affion Crockett chris brown on larry king impression voice) To me its disappointing, i hate 2 c family fight.. But i dont know either side of the story.. So im neutral & enjoyin the music, as u should i made JayZ & Beanie Siegel a trending topic not even tryin to.. SMH...lol..i hate hip hop family splits & beef's... the Cam vs. Jim & Juelz, the Cash Money vs. Juve, B.G. & Turk.. Dr. Dre vs. Snoop... all bad." (Fabolous' Twitter)
Lets see where all this goes in a couple of days.
