Beanie's Beef with Jay-Z

Nothing gets the attention of rap fans like a feud. Philadelphia rapper Beanie Sigel - a.k.a the Broad Street Bully - used to be the best of buddies with Jay-Z. No more, apparently. Last week at the Power 99 Powerhouse concert at the Wachovia Center, Beanie dropped the lines, "I'm a grown a-- man, I don't sit on n----- laps/I'm looking for gifts out of Santa Claus' sack." And according to MTV.com, those rhymes are featured on his new song "What You Talkin' Bout (I Ain't Your Average Cat)." (Though in the song snippet available on MTV.com you'll find below, they are not heard.) This morning, Sigel - real name: Dwight Grant - went on radio station 100.3 F.M. (The Beat) to talk to deejay Charlemagne Tha God about his failed relationship with his former mentor and Roc-A-Fella records kingpin, and explain such be-careful-or-I'll-tell Beyonce-lyrics as "I was a fly on the wall, sh-- I witnessed/I can say sh-- that will make B look at you different." Part of the problem, it seems, is that Jay-Z is no longer saving spots for Sigel on his high profile album releases, such as the new Blueprint 3. "I'm not really dissing Jay," he claims, but "I feel he gave out a lot of pairs of shoes on that album. I felt my feet was meant for a couple of them."
