I honestly can't wait for him to get healthy and get back in the studio. Sigel has been in and out of jail the last decade, and a couple days after coming home he was shot late last year. Bottom line: Beanie Sigel can rap his ass off especially when he's on some street shit, which is like 99.7 percent of the time. He played the role of muscle when it came to beef with the Ruff Ryders and Nas, and he held his own. There was a period when Beans had the Roc on his back.

I'm pretty sure I caught a case because of ' No Glory.' Fuck them, though, because both those LPs are certified street classics. Both State Property albums are grossly underrated by the mainstream.

Coming, is the closest he has to a classic with songs like 'Feel It in the Air' and 'Change' on it, but the buildup was overshadowed by his 2004 court case, where he was eventually acquitted. His sophomore LP, The Reason, had shit like 'Nothing Like It,' 'Get Down,' 'Tales of a Hustler,' and 'What Your Life Like 2,' which cemented his place as a street legend. His debut album, The Truth, had cuts like 'Raw & Uncut' and 'Mac & Brad' where the newcomer held his own with the likes of Jay Z and Scarface, respectively. He's one of the few gangsta rappers that tell both sides of the game: the pain and the glory. Music by Beanie Sigel has been featured in the Hustle soundtrack, jeen-yuhs: A Kanye Trilogy soundtrack and Saints Row 2 soundtrack. His albums aren't classics, but they have classic tracks on them. Beanie Sigel is underrated yet is still one of the greats.
