Part 2: • Beanie Sigel on Gettin...
In this clip, Philly legend Beanie Sigel returned to VladTV for the first time in 11 years. This time, Beans opened up about his upbringing in South Philly and what his family dynamic was like growing up. He also recalled getting into the streets early on through robberies, one of which got him locked up at 14, and why he considered himself to be a "crash dummy" at the time.

Not to be negative, but I think it had to do with him getting shot and losing a lung. Idk if that directly caused him to lose weight or if that made him decide to get healthier in order to recover from that.
