Beanie Sigel finally admits to XXLMag.com that he was wrong for dissing Jay-Z in the media, on songs and all the other ways he decided to take shots at his previous boss. And I say he ‘finally admits’ it because c’mon Beans…you knew you were wong from the get-go getty-up. “What Mike Epps say? ‘Gangstas f— up too,” Sigel said. “Whatever I felt this dude Jay did wrong to me, it can’t outweigh the one thing he did do for me — he gave me an opportunity. Dude gave me an opportunity. A lot of people don’t get opportunities. He gave me that. That outweighs everything. I need that in black and white. I got caught in the moment and put my feelings out there. I should have never done that.”
Sigel’s career catapulted since teaming up with Roc-A-Fella Records, but after founders Jay-Z, Dame Dash and Biggs Burke went their separate ways, Beans felt by certain members of the Roc-A Fella family, Jay-Z and Memphis Bleek. Also, at one point the ‘The Truth’ rapper claimed Dash owed him $11 million.
But Beanie says not to expect any more vitriol coming from his side. “I was explaining the whole Roc-A-Fella s— and a lot of feelings were going to get hurt,” Sigel said of material he recorded dissing his old running mates that he no longer plans to release. “I was airing s— out. Just the homies could listen to that when they come into the studio. I couldn’t put that out. It wouldn’t sit right with me.” Hopefully Beanie Sigel can make up with Jay-Z like Nas did. Jay-Z is pretty much a stand-up guy, so I believe that if Beans approaches him correctly that they will.
