On 2000’s “The Truth,” Beanie Sigel’s debut single from his debut album, the undeniably talented MC boasted how he didn’t even chase his dreams as a rapper. After a decade of making a career off of records that primarily involved the ardent street life, it’s a safe bet to say he was indeed telling the truth.

You Know How It Get It The Club
Following a Philly 4th of July party in 2003, two people were shot and Beanie was subseqently charged with attempted murder. He beat all the cases, however.

You Have No Idea
Even Jay Z couldn’t calm his former lieutenant down. While taping MTV’s Diary reality show in 2000, Hov actually had to physically step in to prevent Beans from laying the smackdown in the club.
Brotherly Betrayal
After the Roc moved on without him, Beans vowed to step on Jay’s neck until he responded. He eventually got the rebuttal he was looking for thru a Drake song.

Riding Dirty Filthy
Philadelphia officers pulled over Sigez with a fully loaded .38-caliber Smith & Wesson $4,500 in straight cash, pills on August 29, 2012. Sounds like he was ready for Armaghettodon.

Strongarming For ‘Ye
Sigel recalled a time to DJ Vlad when Kanye felt like he was about to get robbed for his chain during the early days of Roc-A-Fella. Beans showed up and the would-be crooks got ghost.
Flipping The Script
Years later, Beans straight up said Kanye was gay and then asked him for a beat. Gangsta, gangsta, tell us how you do that?
