Beanie Sigel Talks T.I., Hip Hop & Jay-Z

But while the artists in Hip Hop take the politically correct route stating they dont know enough to make a full comment and just offer their support to TIP, Philly rapper Beanie Sigel holds nothing back.

I rap about what I know and what I see The problem that I got with rappers is that if youre not part of that lifestyle and thats not what you do, then dont talk about it. I give you the pros and cons, I give you both sides of it. If you really listening to my music, I tell a story. Its not just me going out there and killing everybody, Beans says on his Hip Hop vs America blog submission via BET.com. I got a problem with certain rappers who dont live that lifestyle who never did. They do it because they think thats whats selling records. They dont know both sides.

Things like that make it hard. But T.I. was trippin. Cmon boss, who you going to war with? If you didnt try it then, why would you try it now? Beans continues. People wait until a certain age to get those attributes attached to their name. Gangsters arent sworn in, theyre born in. Youre what you were in junior high.

Sigel then suggests that its rappers [lack of] intelligence that makes them act the way they do.

If you look at this generation, this generation is illiterate. These young rappers are making up their own language. Its a lack of education These young people dont know how to express themselves. Whats up homie? What the fuck, thats all they know.

Aside T.I. and the dumb rappers who need teachin Biggie; Beanie Sigel speaks on how hip hop is more than just music and how they dont want them to make it.

Were making a lot of money in this music business from this thing of ours, this music, this hip hop thing, Beanie says. You got people like Jay-Z, Nelly who are crossing over into the corporate world and they dont want us there Jay-Z is predicted to be a billionaire from hip hop and making music with no college degree. Youve got people whove been in school all of their lives and hes about to be a billionaire and have fun on his way to doing that.

What we do is no worse than what people do in Hollywood, but its worse there because its a visual The same thing they are doing to hip hop, they should be doing to Hollywood. Theyve been doing it forever. Weve got a little two-minute video with a girl in a bikini, but theyre showing everything. They have parental discretion advised, so do we, Beans says of the double standard between Hip Hop and Hollywood.

I think they dont like people next door to them in big mansions with big chains having parties. They dont want us as their neighbors When I ride down the street in my Bentley, they look at me like Im not even supposed to have that car. What I got to say to that is stop hatin!
