Peedi was trash when he's on that blacarican rap. But when he just doin Philly ish...he's been on. Some great verses in this and Peedi still kinda outshined them.




Now back to Beans...he will always be considered Philly royalty.

I was there for a few studio sessions when he was recording his last album......He had a deal with Roughouse records in philly so the recording studio was basically up near conshohocken.

I heard him and Scarface having a conversation via speakerphone about their album together.

He's really in a rough place from what I see music/business wise. I wasn't particularly big on his last album to be honest to me......and like others said, the music game dried up.

I have a few funny Beanie sigel stories I could tell.

go head and drop them stories then!

Beanie Sigel will always get my respect and admiration for his music, and how much it meant to me growing up and now, 'The Reason' was a HUGE cd for me in 2001, I love that album. So many memories from my own life, and hip hop in general tied up in that time period, from Jada battle, the first days of the Roc, just how the game was back then…as a person though, dude is immature and regressive as it gets, I'm sure he's hurting financially, when he was arrested before he went in he was driving around hustling pills and lean, with a roll of 3500 $ cash and a few pills in cellophane. That kind of money doesn't translate into someone with 5 kids, multiple homes and crippling legal bills, as well as a slew of debt, credit issues, just an overall neglect of personal and professional finance. I wish him the best though, and I'd love new music from Beans, but it may not happen, and it definitely will be a hard road for him in this climate….Ideally he'd do a quick EP with some dope beats, and speak on his life in the rap game and streets, his recent struggles, the same old shyt from Beans, but we will probably get some low rent hood DVD freestyle with him pulling stacks from a hefty bag, and then nothing for years.

I'm always surprised by posts like this. Well reasoned and written. :salute:
