Watch Part 7: goo.gl/1NeF46
Part 5: goo.gl/1qjffN
Part 1: goo.gl/wbzYsN
----------------------
AR-AB and Dark Lo reacted to the news of Beanie Sigel retiring from rap, and they explained that there has been a shift in hip-hop where the new generation is on a different wave. They added that Beanie's new records aren't selling with the young crowd, but when it comes to JAY-Z's new music, that's different.

[@UPPERROOMENT]

Jmari Primus ‘compared’.

[@ArtisanWindchimes]

Hov got flow though he's no Big and Pac, but he's close, how I'm posed to win they got me fightin' ghosts, same sword they knight you they gon good night you with, thats only half if they like you, that ain't even the half what they might do, don't believe me ask Michael, see Martin, see Malcolm, you see Biggie, see Pac, see success and its outcome, see Jesus, see Judas see Caesar see Brutus, see success is like suicide suicide it's a suicide, if you succeed, prepare to be crucified - Hov

Gotta appreciate a great friendship like this. Hopefully we all have someone in our life that has our back like this. Ab said "Dark lo is a great friend". We gotta make sure to shout out our friends and family once in a while to let them know they're appreciated. We're all we got.

[@TheSportsandFilmFellowship]

I disagree with AR with that Jay Z point. All false. Jay Z is Jay Z so people are gonna listen. Jay Z always been great. Beans too, but Beans voice changed and his market is not relevant.

[@mikewill5141]

Jay has always been 10 steps ahead of everyone and everything. He didn't care if another artist put in better bars on a collaboration he was thinking about the bigger picture. Everyone knows including HOV that the masses are going to buy, download, stream, and whatever else way there is to get his music (Jay). So if he does a collaboration with another artist, especially if that artist is signed to the ROC and that artist has a better verse than he did then people are gonna be like " Oh shit, I'm getting that beans album or bleek album when it comes out" Jay could sell a ketchup popsicle to a woman in white gloves. He's always gonna get that money no matter what!

[@freddycalipari4242]

Mike Will get off his dick. Dame/biggs guided jay and he left to be guided by Jews. Jay always been an artist

[@zlistcelebrityYT]

Beans was the best in the Roc ASIDE from Jay. His delivery and rhyme schemes were and still are top tier hands down. But nowhere close to Jay’s wordplay. Problem with talking about Jay lyrics is people get insulted when you tell em shit goes over their heads so you can never have a real debate about it. All that shit aside, Jay absolutely knew what Beans was capable of with rap and it was more than clear that he wanted Beans to lead the Roc as he transitioned to all that corporate shit.

[@richiebuz]

zlistcelebrity. Facts. Honestly think Hov found in Beans another BIG or Big L. That spitter that keep him tied to the culture

[@MrSeanmjones]

Beans is nice but better than Jay???? Not on his best day!! Jay is too prolific and witty with his shit....

[@Real2k25]

Wow dude said only dick heads get burned for not protecting they neck but beans was 10 times more street and they talked about different stuff beans told life stories u don't need schemes for that

[@wilsonfisk4741]

zlistcelebrity cmon even nas. Said compare to beans you wack jay dont put heart in his especially after the second album beans give you whats on his mind and his heart on a track no holding back and he madtered that no pen and and pad shit from the time he droped the reason he even killed the where have you been track off the dynasty jays veres sounded like cosby show beans came with good times that raw feeling and if you want bars listen to get down from beans that track alone solidified beans as a top spitter and thats from 01 or better a thousand bars from 99

[@zlistcelebrityYT]

Wilson Fisk so because "even Nas said" that I'm supposed to roll with it? Jay's verses sounded like Cosby Show? Both them dudes told their life stories. Jay ain't no tough guy, and Beans was a monster on the streets....but we're talking about rap here so if your argument is who's more authentic, you're saying the fact Beans' raps were more grimy? You're talking about that "raw feeling" but if someone gets that feeling from Jay's bars that you get from Beans bars, then how are you gonna weigh the two? That's why i limit my rap debates to SKILL. You can't argue with someone about how music makes them feel because everyone's affected different.

[@mzmav720]

Ab is wrong for saying that Jay needs money in order for his music to stand out. I'm 34 years old and Jay has been putting out HITS and setting trends since I was in the 7th grade. That's before many of you reading these comments.

[@clayfurious4765]

Beans was that guy in his prime but i never thought he was better than Hov. Jay was already eating and the nigga was full off of the bread so he gave Beans the red light to just go hard. Beans was hungry and Jay was the Boss letting his workers do what they do best and that is work. We all see how it all played out in the end. Jay is still up and beans actions became his own demise.

[@CreativeSTS]

Beanie couldnt touch reasonable doubt jayz when jay use to really rap

[@ArtisanWindchimes]

Mike Chidal or vol1. Or vol3. Or Dynasty. Or Blueprint or Black Album. But Beans was up there

[@marcushunit7029]

Beans is not an better artist than jayz at all in my opinion jay is above him and his words are unreachable his concept and flow lyrics are to nice to be touch

[@heavens0114]

Beans definitely top 10 no debating

[@pitufofuckedyomomma9085]

[@Gyttripin]

If you only counting philly rappers then yeah he top 10 . Kurupt would be #1

heavens0114 facts. He put out some of d best music u rite

[@dondada2362]

Beans is a legend. He opened many doors for u Philly dudes. Com on now, Keep it a buck

[@dn30001]

As a Black thought fan, I WILL say that Beans outshined him and the rest of The Roots on Beans FIRST EVER rap debut on the Roots album, Adrenaline. Big Pun was supposed to be on that track but he couldn't make it, so the part went to Beans.

[@djmaze1473]

dn30001 never outshined him. Beans sold out. Thought never was a mainstream artist. But he's eating. He's a writer for hov. He's on the label

[@dn30001]

DJ Maze CLEARLY thought, Malik, or Dice Raw did NOT have better verses than Beans on Adrenaline...cmon now. I'm not questioning if Beans sold out or how mainstream or underground any artists are..I just know that Beans had the best verse on that song. Revisit them verses again.

[@Suprheem90]

Wow that’s interesting as fuck

[@djmaze1473]

Bruh to you he had the better verse. Maybe you're a street guy. But lyrically thought was way better than any of them. I promise you that if they do a song thought will murder most of the industry

[@dn30001]

DJ Maze my being a street guy OR an underground lyrical miracle spiritual empiracle backpacker doesn't have anything to do with how their verses were laid on that track. Black Thought is my favorite emcee...but I'll be the FIRST to tell you that his verse on Adrenaline wasnt close to his best verse ever and Beans can actually RHYME. He didnt even have to talk about dope pushing and he was DOPE on Adrenaline. Seems to me that you are clearly disqualifying Beans from that track just because he is 'street'. SMH.

[@TheRobertox6x]

AB is that crack dealer in your community that everybody knows sells crack, but is a rlly cool dude and nice talker so nobody cares lol

[@liveish2717]

I'll never forget going to Beanz album release party for his first album and him starting beef with his own people and the party getting shut down right after I got there. I knew from then dude was crazy. But I met a fly japanese chick that evebtually became my girl when I was walking out the party and she was just getting there so I guess I gotta thank Beanz for that...

[@lyricdavilogyld7002]

If you can understand what AR-AB is saying at 6:45 ... then you can understand the scripture about the widow in (Bible Scripture) Luke 21:1-4... her love for God was different... Luke 21:1-4 And He looked up and saw the rich putting their gifts into the treasury, 2 and He saw also a certain poor widow putting in two mites (Two Pennies).[a] 3 So He said, “Truly I say to you that this poor widow has put in more than all; 4 for all these out of their abundance have put in offerings [b]for God, but she out of her poverty put in all the livelihood that she had.”
