memphis bleek to beans ''shut the fuck up i didnt get a check neither''

[Gods_Debris]

i usually don't get into all this rapper bullshit but there are two things that strike me here.

1) Bleek is full of shit with his statement that an opportunit is worth more than any check. If I were to offer you a check for 30 million dollars or the opportunity to star in a leading role in a major motion picture but you would be working for free I can guess which option you would take assuming that you are a sane and rational human being.

2) What about the part that Beans played in all of this shit. If you watched that other video then you heard that "Choke" character say he believed that 'Jay would have gone to bat for anybody else on the label' with the exception of Beans himself. Dude was a loose cannon and as a result he reaped the rewards of continuing to be and behve like a knuckle headed nigga well into his adult life.

Damn guy, talk about about skewing the facts to favor your argument. I'll play your game though...is it better for the manager of McD's to give the homeless dude across the street $20 or offer him a job making $20 an hour?

...see what I mean?

But that $30 million check probably trumps whatever opportunity entirely...

Would you rather someone give you a check for $50,000 on a one time basis or someone give you a chance to make $75,000 a year for the next 10 years or so?

To me this is the Lao Tzu quote of "Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach him how to fish and you feed him for a lifetime".

No he saying Real nigga shit

Oppurtunity >>>> Check

As a Dj i sometimes take Free gigs.. Why? Not because im not worth money

But sometimes the oppurtunity is priceless..

In entertainment your name is more important than any monetary value

Beans was in the position to be what a Jeezy or Rick Ross is right now.. If a nigga is worth X amount of money.. There is nothing Hov could have did to stop Beans from Making his money


Hov cooked up the Roc already.. so why cant these niggas get hot already?

Co-Sign!!!!!


Beans isn't marketable! Plus who else on the Roc got they're own movie? Beans had plenty of Opp's! He went to jail and stopped his money! Who else on the Roc had a clothing brand? "Grown men want me to sit'em on my lap! But I ain't got a beard and Santa Clause ain't black!"

These bars negate that statement.

Bleek could be one hit away his whole career
As long as im alive hes a millionaire
And even if I die hes in my will somewhere
so he can just sit back and chill somewhere
he dont even have to write ryhmes
the dynasty like my money last 3 lifetimes

You all are taking like Bleek is on some major shit.

Maybe I'm wrong. Perhap he gets writing/producing gigs here and there.

I doubt it, but maybe.

 

[BKF]

I really want him to speak up.

Speak up about what?? How he played himself.

 

[HeathCliff]

Speak up about what?? How he played himself.

I know right

 

[Give Me 3ft.]

"opportunity is worth more than any check" that's the realest shit I heard all week

opportunity > than a check GTFOH
this is just a way for intelligent people to control weak minded mofos.

 

[tekk]

i dont think anyone in here even knows why beanie sigel is dissing jayz

do u dudes liste to music or do u just skim through it

i never even heard beanie sigel complain about not getting money or jay owing him money

all beans wanted was to get out of his contract and jay couldnt do that for him, as if he's even using him

good point

not choosing sides but MEMPHIS BLEEK IS A CHILDHOOD FRIEND of JAY Z and he also raps so compared to Beenie Situation Memphis is comfortbale being a hype man on tour with Jay Z and make tour money that way since he is not selling records. Just like Tony Yayo. Tony knows his position and makes money that way. therefore, Memhpis Bleek situation totally different from BEENIE

 

[34real]

To me this is the Lao Tzu quote of "Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach him how to fish and you feed him for a lifetime".

Beanie said He had his own rod,was eating before he met Jay(the fish,the meal)and that the only thing Jay did was take him to a different part of the pound/Lake/ocean.

The opportunity is the same. He could have took that and ran with it. Remember Dame said he made Jay-Z. Jay-Z took that opportunity he wasn't getting before and ran with it.

 

[Heist]

LMAO!
He did say that shit once. That he never wears the same pair of socks twice. He wears them once then throws them away.

I bet he wishes he had all that sock money back now!


Sock Money -- that should be the name of his next group.
Sock Money Hustlas...
LMAO!

 

[POSTERBOY]

beans had the world in his lap. he had endorsements, a record deal, clothing line, a sub-label(state property) like damn son what more could son have gotten

I agree with you 100%. I recently had a great opportunity to shoot and edit some footage for some folks in my area. I did it for the opportunity more than the money. In fact, at first we didn't even discuss money. For me it was just the chance to get a foot in the door that appealed to me. I ended up getting paid for it, but honestly that wasn't the most important thing. Hopefully the (good) job I did for these folks will create more opportunities for me and in turn put money in my pockets and/or accounts...

 

[xcluesiv]

All very valid points. Don't cut me no check, just put me on and I'll do the rest.

[Rick Ronson]

I think these niggas fuck themselves by being carbon copies of the last nigga
and not being able to adapt.

That shit they used to rap about is pretty much irrelevant but they're stuck

Appealing to a market that isnt buying that shit anymore.

Time ran out on that shit .....unless they reinvent themselves they are just
old mothafuckas still trying.

Plus its hard to look them the same cause they fell after all the cockiness.

I listen to beans the other day bragging about "unlaced air force ones and no license."

Bragging about no license "Holla!!" U need a ride someplace nigga?

I just laughed and shook my head.

These kids are smarter than that silly shit these days..plus they soft as cake.

Beans probably scares these little pussy type dudes

 

[Complex]

I always find these threads interesting, because you always see the same people hating

Where would Beans be without Jay-Z?
Where would Bleek be without Jay-Z?
Where is Dame Dash without Jay-Z?

It's the same shit with Yayo and Buck.

Being the disgruntled angry rapper only gets you so much play and last but so long. How many youtube clips can you see and how many diss songs can you hear. What's the purpose? How did it turn out for Max B with Jimmy? Dudes are laughing at you, while you're all angry. You end up looking like a clown.

I just want to know what is Beans purpose, because this shit is overshadowing his niceness. Dude hung with and even outrapped Scarface and Jay-Z on songs. The same shit he's going to get going at Jay-Z, is the same shit he would have gotten before, a deal on E1/Koch.

Bleek is right, Jay-Z is so on another level, that going at him doesn't even matter. He's the first alive rapper, who's become bigger than rap. Rich white dudes doing business deals don't give a fuck what a Beanie Siegal said on a youtube clip.

Shiiit Max was stylin on them niggas...he fucked himself.

No one gives a fuck about Jimmy

 

[the Imm font]

dumb nigga why not get opportunity plus the check you deserve. Only black people expect to work for free.

 

[UltimateLurker]

He's the first alive rapper, who's become bigger than rap.

i needed that laugh, NO MAN(dead or alive)is/was bigger than rap....everybody had their time to shine

dr. dre
snoop dogg
*tupac has his
*biggie had his(*when these two passed)
nas, jay, master p, ja rule, nelly, em, 50, t.i., ye', lil wayne ...hell even cash money got their's

.....and yet all these guys fail to outsell that white boy em, based on that bullshit you wrote, I would say em or even hammer(you do still remember his impact on the genre, don't you?)...cartoons, commercials, you name it



funny thing is em, jay, 50 all came out last year and they got beat in the sales department by wayne and ye the previous year(it's their time)

 

[Rick Ronson]

dumb nigga why not get opportunity plus the check you deserve. Only black people expect to work for free.

it aint want.....some dont know and some trust managers for their paperwork

your own lawyer will stick it in you if you arent careful..almost got me

but someone we know very well over stepped that shit.

Lawyer sitting waiting for checks passive expecting their % of my fucking advance.

Meanwhile checks came straight to me .......

Faggots.....nigga this biz is fucked up.

Dude, you're thinking small. Currently, Jay, Diddy, and even 50 Cent are bigger than rap. You can't place sales on them any longer. Eminem is the biggest rap star on fanbase but he's not bigger than rap. Jay is marketable on all venues. So is Diddy. Jay has even a commercial in France y'all don't know about. Diddy sponsored young votes and ran in a marathon. Although, still in grind mentality, 50 puts his brand on anything and everything, but his image is a dying breed because beef is played out.

Never included Puff in the rap category though, because he started as an exec
