50 Cent’s efforts to support former Roc-a-Fella Records artist Beanie Sigel seem to have resulted in a deal to bring the Broad Street Bully to G-Unit Records.



Both artists confirmed the move during a private screening of 50’s directorial debut, Before I Self Destruct on Tuesday evening (November 3) in Philadelphia.



The presentation was hosted by Power 99 (WUSL-FM), which allowed fans the opportunity to win tickets to the screening .



Sigel joined 50 towards the end of an on-air interview with “The Hot Boyz” Mikey Dredd and Uncle O, leading to a candid ten minute conversation.



During the interview, 50 and Beans revealed that “Beans is coming to G-Unit,” with no additional details as to how soon the new partnership might yield an album or single.



The interview also presented a chance for Sigel to respond to Jay-Z’s reaction to “Average Cat.”



“People think that I’m just speaking out because I’m in the position that I am and I ain’t put no music out. Let’s go to Jay-Z’s rebuttal about the complaints of Beanie Sigel: the two Bentleys that I obtained, Jay-Z had nothing to do with that. That was a car from Damon Dash and from Kareem Burke.”



He goes on to explain that the car was given to him after a conversation between Dame and others revealed that Dash was in fact the owner and driver of the Bentley, at which point he no longer wanted to be seen driving the vehicle.



The other Bentley was given to him as a birthday present by Burkes, leaving him to pay the remaining balance on the car note.



“So, Beanie Sigel was driving around to Bentleys and had to pay $5100 a month. It’s not like you helped me attain all this wealth and gave me the two Bentleys. You didn’t give me a record label. It only cost a couple hundred dollars to search the name ‘State Property Records,’ nobody owned it; I think I paid another couple hundred dollars and I patented the LLC. So my record label only cost me $750, to say on a piece of paper that I own State Property Records, LLC. I did that on my own, you didn’t give me that. And what artists was on that label?”



Beans reveals that he was only a 20% partner in the State Property clothing line, with Jay-Z, Dame Dash and their Rocawear partners owning the rest.



Sigel had presented the idea to Dash as their relationship drew strength based on the rift between Jay and Dame, he says.



Even though he revealed that Damon Dash allegedly went behind his back and sabotaged State Property’s clothing product, Sigel admonished Jay-Z for what he refers to as continued unnecessary jabs at a man he’s clearly defeated.



“Take me out, Dame and Biggs were your mans from day one. If he [Dame] was messing up the money y’all should’ve been able to straighten that out. Whatever the gripe, you took everything from him already,” Sigel argued. “You took the clothing line, the record label, he has nothing. Now he’s going through financial difficulties. Then he loses his wife and gets a divorce. You feel that comfortable on a record to say ‘Lucky Lefty, kiss the wife goodnight for me.?’ You already killed the man, he’s dead already! Now you’re going to stand over top of him and urinate on him and stomp on him? You can do that? I got something to say about that."



On whether to expect more diss records, Sigel made it clear he would continue to go at Jay lyrically until he gets a response, and predicted he has the skill set to emerge vuictorious.



“He's a crumb. I’m putting my foot on his neck ‘til he responds. Please make a record, ‘cause a week been out dog,” he taunted.



“Not taking nothing from Jay as an artist. All I’m saying is I ain’t gotta jog to keep up with him. Watch what I do next,” Beans “said as he did the signature G Unit stuttering proclamation.

Jay-Z is a ruthless business man. I doubt he'll respond, just because he knows it will generate money for Beans and G-Unit. Even if he does though, he might just drop a bar in a song referring to the beef.

Other than that though, 50 signing Sigel isn't a very strong hip hop move, unless they both step their game up. G-Unit records aint doing shit.

no offense to beanie but how does 50 feel beanie will blow up on his label if dude couldn't do shit on rocafella. 50 should try finding a lady gaga/drake clone if he wants his label to stop from signing flops.

Although I would LOVE to see Beanie blow, G-Unit was never, and will never be the place for anyone to blow up (again). They had their small moment of success, and the only people to truly get on out of it was Game and Buck. (Not including 50 obviously). I mean shit, they signed Mobb deep, M.O.P. and what have we seen from either? Flop after Flop. I wish Beanie the best, but this will most definitely stifle the fame side of things.

So when did g-unit fall off? Hip-hip in general fail off... Last album that came out on g-unit did a 100,000 first week. There's about a hand full of artist pushing more then a 100,000 units first week. If anything g-unit is just feeling what all these other labels is feeling. Beans going to g-unit could work in his favor if he gets hungry and gets on his monthly mixtape grind. A lil beef with jay-z isn't enough for sales the people wont that music to go along with it.
