During a recent press conference, a reporter spoke to Jay-Z about complaints. Specifically, the reporter from M.O.B. Magazine asked about the Beanie Sigel diss "What You Talkin' 'Bout (Average Cat)" [click to listen]. A video of the comments hit the net, showing Jay's reply via DimeWars [click here].

"He has a lot to complain about," Jay said to some laughter before providing more of his thoughts on the diss.

"Beanie Sigel, at the time, and you can look it up if you'd like, let's just be honest, was driving two Bentleys," he noted. "With his momma in the sticks and selling 800,000 records. I don't know. What more can you do for somebody at that point? At some point, you have to look in the mirror and look at yourself."

On Sigel's point that he wasn't pushed, Jay went forward, noting that Beans had a lot without going platinum.

"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, if anyone has ever done so much with so little. What more can you do for a person at that point?"
