It ain't just the yeses and the no's. It's what the yeses and the no's are to. All yeses and no's ain't created equal. A yes for $20 don't mean nothing if your next no ruins 20 years.
It sounds like Beans looked at Roc A Fella as a gang instead of a record label. He would've fit right in with a mid 90's Death Row Records riding for Suge.
Jay said years ago that he told Beans he has the rap skills to go up there with Tupac as being regard as one of the greatest m.c.s all he has to do is leave the street life alone, Beans would not listen he just kept being hardheaded & kept that street mentality.
When Jay put his head down and said "no" that's because it hurt him too. People like this never see the pain and misery they cause. All they can see is their own feelings. Dangerous people to have around when you're building because they will only be filled with jealousy and envy, eventually...
Beanie has to understand like you said it hurt Jay to say it but also listen to what Beanie said. He said he was facing 40 yrs and what if he ran. So if he ran that would have been on the person who took responsibility for him which would have been Jay. Now he would have went down for aiding a fugitive.
When Jay said No,that’s when he were supposed to change things around for himself..I wouldn’t be responsible for someone who’s still thinking he’s in the streets..Jay made him a millionaire and he was still in the streets shooting people..nah I’m with Jay on that one..
@Sivenathi Mnxeba I hear you but in the music industry it's all about relationships and without them you can't make millions on your own. If Jay, Dame and Biggs didn't help him Beans would have made millions. If he signed with another label someone who still be responsible for helping Beans make millions. Jay wouldn't be who he is in hip hop without Biggs and Dame.
@St. Louis King it's the same thing as cosigning with the bail bondsman for somebody to make bail. Jay ain't owe him nothing, but for him to not vouch for him at that point in their relationship and business, is foul. Jay wouldn't have gotten in trouble if beanie woulda got in trouble while being "monitored"

@@st.louisking5815 put what on the line? I just told u there were no legal ramifications for Jay if he woulda agreed to letting the courts kno about beans whereabouts and then beans did some dumb shit. Jay had nothing to lose.
@@pwest1101 relationships he was on a pace to become what he is now you think he wanted to babysit a grown man why you think he stop fucking with them in the first place they was doing too much
@ Well, that’s a misunderstanding of my point. But, I’ll bite. LoL. He “couldn’t stay out of trouble” for the EXACT reasons that Rocafella signed and used him for. They needed The Broad Street Bully because hip hop made flossy rap irrelevant. And Rocafella only had Jay Z, Bleek, and Amil. Beanie Sigel kept the label afloat when they were sinking. Jay sure had no problem with it when he needed the Broad Street Bully to punch on people and pull up with guns to save people.
Once you're 30 , every single move you make has to be calculated or you're done. People don't understand how hard it is being a man. You have to make sacrifices every frickin day. Win some you lose some but you have to take ownership of every decision you make. Jay-Z isn't a billionaire by accident. You don't make decisions on emotions as a man. Would Jay get to where he is right now if he'd signed off on bienie who was an alcoholic and was going to f up. Jay knew this. If beens killed someone or got killed what then for Jay. He knew the judge was trying to set him up
Being broke and 30 give a nigga the CHILLS!!! Realest thing ever wrote. You got to make sacrifices on some level to better your situation. Jay in the end made the right move came at the cost of a friendship but that's the trade off.
Brother, stop the idolatry. Dude is a billionaire because he let some Jewish record exec go all up inside of him. Look at the companies he was ceo of. You guys think if someone got some coins that makes them good. You showing the world exactly who you is son
@@choossuck7653 where do you get information from about Jay z letting some Jewish billionaire go up in him. Just because your life is lousy doesn't mean you slander someone else smarter than you
@@wtf215phillyThis isn’t the streets. This is the music business. Keyword is business. Can’t have an employee constantly getting locked up and in legal trouble.
As a man you have to be accountable and responsible for your damn self. I would feel embarrassed to have a judge ask another man if he can be responsible for me.
@kingdomofisrael4686 Facts bro. As a grown man having someone to ask another grown man will they be responsible for your whereabouts is as they say sonning you.
@sidneyabeljumbo2364 what you mean. It was alot street stuff going on with rocafella. He front lined it. He say it in the interviews. If beans can have your back in urban situations...jay should of had his back in court...
A similar situation happened with Chamillionaire & artist Yung-Ro. If you’re from Houston you know about Cham & Color Changin’ Click. One artist was Yung-Ro, dude was a lyrical beast, but an addict. So when Cham got his deal with Universal he eventually brought several of his former artists with him, Ro being one of them, but Ro fucked up, then blamed everything on Cham. Yung-Ro literally told Cham “you knew better than to give me a million dollars”. Cham wrote a very detailed blog on his MySpace about it explaining the whole situation. Bottom line man you can’t hold a grown man’s hand when your building an empire, that person will keep you from climbing the steps to success.
I need to see the rest of this because I’m hoping at some point he also admits that he can understand why J was hesitant to be responsible for him. If a man can’t look back on his life and be honest with himself regarding past behavior and how he may have been perceived because of that behavior then that man has not grown.
I think beans play victim.......but let's be real I can imagine Jay z getting around beans and saying shit like " if anything ever happens"........" Whenever you need anything I mean anything just call" ect yes Jay z might of meant something like he'd help his car out of impound....not saying beans should have fell for it either...but I can see it happening, dudes make empty promises all the time
@@brudderstyles3479 beans was a victim and I think this for him was an eye opener. I feel he looked at rocafella as a street family, cos sometimes in the streets you Gota have you mans back regardless if you think he’s right or wrong and hash it out behind closed doors but jay was doing traditional business not street business and that’s where beans and dame got it fucked up. For the most part street guys have the highest sense of morality and loyalty but corporate guys are more cutthroat
Beans that means you were a liability instead of a asset at that time. Beans had a label and a team of artist to take care of. Jay could not be responsible for another grown man. It was not your first time dealing with the law. Beans you messed your money up, not Jay. We have to be responsible for our choices because its not Jay's fault big Bro, its yours.
@@thecouncilmagazine9323 I don't disagree but you know the mentality black folks relate to family. Anything for family you kill for em' you die for em'.
When you're the cash cow of the entire operation you can't be held responsible for a live wire. Beans was unpredictable back in the days. He was really living that life and the entire situation was too risky to put on the front line. Beans I ain't trying to change you...just give you some game...to make the transition...from the streets to the fame.
Wow, and those bars are from 2000/2001 ! And you know, Jay Z really tried , he really did , but this is world , energies, responsibilities , they change
Yeah he really did live that life !!! I grew up in Atlantic City and I used to work at a lot of clubs in Philadelphia… He was a local celebrity in the early 2000s…
He used Beanz for that street credibility and live wire-ness when it came to going at fellow rappers that were more inline with the streets but when it came to truly helping out his artist/friends he will always turn his back…..just look at Kanye for instance, he pretty much said the same thing as Beanz did here.
@@deanbrooks7297 Kanye a Billionaire and Rihanna...he taught them the game. Beans kept getting in trouble. Once corporate catch wind of your reputation its a wrap. No business will risk investing money in you if you're a live wire. You can only hold a person hand but for so long. When the split happened they all made a choice. Roc Nation is deeper than rap. They showing ppl how to fish. The rest is up to them.
@@deanbrooks7297 Why did he need street cred? He was already poppin' before they signed Beans. He didn't need him for muscle because they could always hire a dude with nothing to lose for that purpose. Bottom line is Beans was just immature at the time.
From what I read at the time, Jay asked Beans to cool out because he was bringing heat on everybody else. Beans still went out anyway and racked up an attempted murder charge. Wasn’t his first incident either. Now Beans is in jail and he expects Jay Z to vouch for the same kids whereabouts that wouldn’t listen and placed everyone else’s careers and lives in jeopardy. This is that failure to be accountable thought process that goes along this type of mindset. So if he gets Beans out and he is just as uncontrollable Jay’s whole life is on the line for someone who has shown already he doesn’t listen. Don’t see nothing wrong with Jay’s actions. It would be different if Jay led him to get the charge. Beans was doing beans against everyone else’s authority. Why didn’t one of the other guys in the room vouch for him. Because Beans was out of control and nobody was taking that risk.
But you forgot the times Beans save Jay life and all the things he did for Rocfella he wasn’t called the General for no reasons now in his time of need you shitted on em, Jay a snake you don’t sell your family
@@officialreplik5095 - So compare what you are saying to the Mafia. You have a guy that completed jobs of protection for the organization. However he gets to point where the organization can’t control him. They tell him to cool out he is putting the entire business at risk. He ignores that and does it anyway. This brings heat on himself and potentially others. So if you run the organization you would put everything at risk for the guy who was being insubordinate yesterday? Jay and Dame saved Beans life and changed his families trajectory by putting him on and giving him the platform to make him rich. Bottomline is leadership is important in every business. An organization needs its generals to stay in line with the organizations goals or everyone could lose. Jay did what he was supposed to and if he was so wrong how come none of the other partners stepped up to put their freedom up for his bond?
@@officialreplik5095 BECAUSE ITS A RECORD LABEL....A LEGIT BUSINESS!! NOT A CRIMINEL ORGANIZATION!. Artists shouldnt be running around pistol whipping people on some street gang shit.
@@nic-tv4090Well, Jay-Z shouldn't have been asking him to, or even ALLOWING it. Clearly, CLEARLY you forgot about their beef with The L.O.X- which was real beef beyond music and both sides always talk about how, people could have got killed. That wasn't even Beans' beef smh
This thinking reminds me of my brother who was in the streets and was wondering why I changed and grew up. I couldn’t do that street shit no more. But I told them that I’ll always be here for him if he wanted to change. That came back to bite me on the ass more times than I care to admit. Til I had to say no. And that was my flesh. People with this mentality need to grow up
I saw this interview when it first aired but why Jay? If Jay said, “No” why didn’t Dame work behind the scenes and tell the judge he’ll take on the responsibility? Plus, we all know Beans was a wild dude during that time, it’s no way anyone was going to control or make sure he was where he was supposed to be.
Jay-Z was 100 percent right. I know and have family like this. He said no because he understands you like a family member does. Call this the intervention. The day of tough love is going to come.
Now here u are sayin "What if I needed to RUN, from my charge??..I was facing 40 yrs." And u wonder why Jay "DIDNT Agree" to that bullshit that the judge said. Then that sh" wouldve been on Jay, smh3:20
As a REAL man you have to be responsible for your own actions. None of that sh*t falls on ANYONE else. What ever you decide to do to put yourself in an awful situation like that falls squarely on YOUR shoulders. It is during that TIME...during that solace that one recognizes that. It is no one's responsibility to look out for a man UNLESS he is mentally incapable to do so for himself...other than that stop making excuses and stand accountable for your actions. The times that I was locked down was because of MY doing...no one elses!!
Hip hop has got to be the only business where an entry level employee has friendships with the CEO. At some point you got to stop being a burden to your company. Now I'm sure Jay Z also blurred the lines between friendship and business as well to create this expectation
If jay would've said "Yes" and take responsibility for him. Guess what? If Beans would've got in trouble again (which was highly likely because he was reckless) they would use that as an opportunity to aggressively go after jay and hold him personally responsible for any crime Beanie commits. This would be a wet dream scenario for them, because they love taking down high-profile celebrities, especially former criminals like jayz who turned their life around to now make more money than most people make in a lifetime. I gotta give it to jay, he made an incredibly wise decision to say - No. Saying - yes, could've very easily put jay in a very bad situation if Beanie messed up again.
@@eatemup88 You're absolutely delusional if you honestly think, they wouldn't charge a high-profile celebrity for taking responsibility for a criminal.
Definitely would have come after Jay with extreme force after Beans messed up "Inevitably" again. You have to understand, D.A's build their careers off such. Putting a high profile individual behind bars and off the publicity enter into politics. Anyone thinking otherwise is purposely hating or delusional. D.A threw Biggs in jail for introducing two people, Biggs at the time was an immensely successful legitimate co-CEO of Rocafella yet the D.A tied him to a BS case with "Conspiracy" which means you don't need to prove Biggs actual involvement.
I feel Jay did the right thing with Beans but I also feel he did do a lot of people dirty,especially Dame! Dame Dash was incredible at finding talented people, he found Kanye and everyone in Roc-A-Fella thought he was a weirdo and has so much negative shit to say about him,but Dame knew he had something special,Kevin Hart too!
The judge put Jay-Z in a no win situation, so I can understand his move, however, if Beans was his dude, his brother, no doubt he should have said yes your honor I will. But that was a heavy asked, to be responsible for a KNUCKLEHEAD, i.e. C-Murder, Master P. loves his brother but was not willing to let his brother take down the whole ship!
Can't stand people that can't take responsibility for their action this the same dude that drove a Bentley to a cesspool environment all his misfortunes he blames on exterior forces plain entitlement outer directive personality. Beans hard state property clothing couple of gold albums he had a way out but some how found himself in court and no aam not makin this stuff up
I just went through this ish, grown men don't understand that you got so much against you, you can't carry another man's bad habits and decisions. I'm building a legacy for my daughters
Well, for years and based on other interviews I was like thang jay could have looked out, until his time was clear then you on your own. But now hearing what Siegel saying & knowing that you cannot be responsible for a grown persons where abouts even if you wanted to. Jay did the right thing. 1. In the interview just now, beanies said, and i quote what if I had to get out, like be on the run type stuff. Well then you would either screwed jay over or he would have had to be on the run as well. 2. You cannot always know and be responsible for a grown person’s whereabouts even if you are they parent because you can not be with anyone 24-7-365. Including your spouse
@@catchemstreetz3139 I know and , I understand that’s what he meant but if you listen again after he says what if I had to roll be on the run & go, because he was facing possibly 40 years. Listen to that, and even still why was he obligated to be responsible for a grown man where abouts, beans is one of my favorite rappers & I don’t like jay z but he has to eventually face the fact that, he knew the type of career Rocafella was offering. He was in jail because he choose that life over his career. It would be one thing if he did something for one of them and that’s why he was in jail. And he stood tall. I can’t stand a lot of our people never take ownership for they crap.
Yall sounds stupid if u listened he said they were on tour. Tours are pre set he could have easily gave the dates,times, and location of the shows i see u dudes have no loyalty.
Man beans know he dropped the bag. Jay had Beans in everything , but beans could not stop being in the streets. Bleek told a story how when he was on tour with jayz, he was sent back home because he wasn’t in the right mind frame. When he realized what Jay was trying to do for him , he got his ish together and never looked back. Beans could not stay out of trouble. 2:51 that’s way to much to ask jayz to do , he was trying to move in another direction, he had no time to babysit you. if he would of said yes , beans would of never stopped doing what he was doing.
Reality always set in when you shackled down face them charges, the problem with rap is we don't know how to separate friends, family, and business its always our downfall especially when you dealing with dudes that come from nothing they literally have nothing else, but if you look at Rocafella as a whole outside of Jay-Z with the exception of Kanye nobody else on the Roc popped. All things come to an end everybody thought they were going to ride that wave forever.
Well bleek went platinum n 2 golds same for cam, n beans went gold a bunch n the young gunz but you right nobody before Kanye actually blew up. They was solid tho.
So, Beans wouldn’t do right on his own, and Jay said nawww to the judge- that was for a reason Another man shouldn’t be responsible for you like that. Beans gotta take some responsibility!
if you a real hip hop head ,you know beans was "out" there,we also know how selfish Jay can be,some ppl come in your life for a reason some for season,all he knew was south Philly,and based a business situation on street ethics,big mistake,he should've embraced as an opportunity and that was it,he got too comfortable,and based business on sentiment....
When you think about the amount of time your "friend" is about to serve and you didn't even ask any questions..you just said "no"...why did you even show up with your wife...sounds like Jay showed up to make sure he really was going away for years...let that sink in.
Nah!! It’s you dudes that think not snitching on murderers is cool. It’s totally bs. And it’s all loyalty until it’s one of your family members that gets murdered then y’all be singing like Luther asking for justice. Smh.
This was not a street situation for Jay. It wasn’t like Jay was with him while he was doing this and got away. I’ll say this and leave it there… Most people posting on this video have jobs. Go do some stupid stuff on your off time and get caught. I bet you, the company CEO is not coming to speak for you or taking responsibility for any of your actions. It’s that simple. Plus Dame and Biggs were part owners of the company. Why didn’t the judge ask them the same question? The courts knew what they were doing when they ask Jay that question. It’s not being “selfish” because you decide to chose yourself.
Bullshit… Kevin Liles Co founder and CEOof 300 Entertainment just vouched for Young Thug to the judge so he can be released said that he will take full responsibility for him …. Jay Z ain’t loyal Dame than said that plenty of times even Kanye just said on drink champs he selfish.
@@amunraptha5281 and Kevin Liles doing that did what? These courts know what they doing. They always try to take down the head to allow the rest to fall. All this Jay is selfish and played Dame is complete bullshit. Y’all need to do research. Why don’t Dame ever admit that he was stealing money from Roc-A-Fella for his own interest? What don’t Dame admit Def Jam hired a forensics accountant to comb through Roc-A-Fella’s finances and found out that Dame had took so much money, it devalued the Roc. Why don’t Dame admit that Jay told him Def Jam was going to offer him The Roc so he warned them and offered Dame and Biggs the entire Roc catalog in exchange for Reasonable Doubt and Dame declined because he was bitter that Jay was moving on. This is all public information. Ain’t nobody being loyal to no shit like that. Stop reading these rap magazines and start reading the business sections of newspapers and magazines and you’ll learn something. All these rappers and haters lying to y’all and y’all believing it.
“Now you could choose to sit in front of your computer posin with guns shooting TH-cam up OR you could come with me to the White House, get your suit up” -Jay Z
Key words...... "Responsible For....." FUCK NO!!!! Grown Men still looking at life from an immature, unwise perspective..... It's sad that he doesn't get it!
The word responsible scared him at the same time if they told him to chill and get money and he didn’t listen then wat makes you think they think you will listen now
Any reasonable individual would have said "Im not responsible for his whereabouts". Its a trap. Beans was on some grown man ish. You can't tell me nuthin'. Hence, the reason we sittin' in court. So Jay vouches then Beans gets on and does his grown man. Then he is a liability for Jay. So when the boys come knockin Jay is open to damages or, he has to tell on him. Either scenario is a no-go to a reasonable person. Its a f*ckin record label. The fact that Beans and his fans think it was a gang is on them. Games fans think the same sh*t about 50. "Its just music, man its just music" Some of yall out here try the hardest to make these verbal movies real life.
Reputation. If you signed to my label and you known for violence in the streets and goin in and outta of jail, thats a bad look for my reputation as a businessman. Jay was thinking waaay ahead into the future. I doubt he could have got as far as he did keeping a dude like Beans around.
This is what I'm saying. If Beans gets out and does some dumb shit,then its like hey I tried to help you bruh. I'm thinking/hoping all these people in the replies don't realize Jay-Z would not have gotten in any trouble at all regardless. I'm gettin my people up out of there under those circumstances.
@@karimabdul-qawi524lmao that’s naive. Jayz was not the only CEO of rocafella tho. Why do you think the judge didn’t ask Dame or Biggs to vouch for beans? They went straight to the cash cow why’s that? Cos they were hoping Jay would slip up
If Bean went on the run or hurt someone else Jay would have gotten sucked into all that and whose boss or company would do that in real life. This was a work relationship not a gang. Beans would have had the whole company in turmoil like Murder Inc ended up in dealing with Supreme and everyone could have lost behind his drug addict antics.
Why would you put yourself and Jay, in a position, to have to say NO. We’re all responsible for our own actions, I don’t see anything wrong , with what Jay said.
I understand Jay's concern but when the Judge asked him that he was only saying can we trust you to keep an eye on him. The Judge knows that Jay can only do so much, and if it went left, the court couldn't have done anything to Jay. Its similar to a recognizance bond.
Lol son! Jay was a lucky former criminal too. You think the judge just chose jay? Why didn’t the judge choose Dame, Biggs? They was looking for a way to get jigga on the hook.
Jay probably was like bruh I ain't getting involved in that shit. You shooting people and Im a multi millionaire. Jay keep it real with himself , I hate it happened like that but how can he be responsible for you beans? You was Wildin, he ain't really trust you to stay out of trouble .
Beanie was a grown man. They should have never asked Jay Z to be responsible for a grown man. He didn't want to be caught up in Beanie's shenanigans. He was wilding out. Jay Z had his own life, why would he be checking Beanie's every move. I would have said no, too.
Who cares?!?! Beanz was reckless as heck! If he jacked up again(which all signs pointed to yes) now Rock-A-Fella could be in jeopardy. No thanks, im not letting him bring down an organization because he's a hot head. I can't be responsible for A GROWN ASS MAN!
Ppl say what they want about Jay in this situation but nobody worth a couple hundred M's woulda said "yes" to that stipulation. You gotta a bunch of shit goin on and now u gotta baby sit a grown ass man, monitor and report ALL of his whereabouts to a judge and if he messes up then you might get in trouble too... I woulda looked Beans in his face and said "U my man but i cant do this"
Jay is his family but after so many issues, he could mo longer be his baby sitter. That happens with family all the time. Beans can’t expect a babysitter every time. At some point, your fam is gonna have to take a step back
I’m surprised by these comments. I really thought everyone was going to be bashing Jay. I mean yeah why is a grown man going to volunteer himself to be responsible for another grown man’s whereabouts. And he made the right choice, listen to what Beans was saying, he’s talking about running away? Yeah Jay would’ve gotten jammed up if Beans fled.
I didn't hear hom blame Jay once in his statements He said the environment he was from, he said his mindset at the time he said he was hurt by Jays decision because Roc assay that time was the only thing he had that was good and because he was invested in it in many ways except for in a business way

U my man I got ur back no matter what .. we handle that and go back and talk about how wrong u was in private .. u leave ur man in hell? Dehaven and beans got left behind for the greater of Jay .. that’s lame and shows his true colors…
I realize it took everyone 20 years to realize that Jay wasnt treating them wrong, he was making them be accountable for themselves. When you got nothing to lose you dont care when you got something to lose you have to make uncomfortable choices
Jay was dead wrong. Period. You go get your man that's going to ride or die for you. Even if beans would have messed up on bail, that money would've been crumbs to Jay. In that moment Jay proved that he really didn't rock with beans and that beans was nothing more than a disposable artist to him. Everybody in the rap game isn't real. Most of these rap guys just rap about street and real things. Understand the difference. Rough Riders never left DMX behind no matter what he did or how many times he went to jail, not once.

Lol,, Reading these comments I can't help but to laugh.. Jay Z made alot of bread of these young cats, stole publishing and raps.. The judge asked him to keep a eye on him.. I don't think that's much to ask. If beans wouldve fucked up and got arrested again that's not on Jay. No bail had to be put up.. Beans Is grown and has to take accountability but he had every right to be disappointed in a guy he looked up to like a big brother... Remember when Kanye was in that diner bout to get robbed they called beans not Jay..
Even after all these years this man is STILL acting like Jay did him wrong, if he can’t see why J was not WILLING to be responsible for him, he hasn’t grown as a man, BS was a good rapper, but he hasn’t grown as a man. P.S. BS need to be addressing his bullshit. Imagine trying to be responsible for a hot headed adult, I’ll wait! 😳

It sounds like Beans looked at Roc A Fella as a gang instead of a record label. He would've fit right in with a mid 90's Death Row Records riding for Suge.

EXACTLY what I was thinking the whole time watching this video!
Beanie has to understand like you said it hurt Jay to say it but also listen to what Beanie said. He said he was facing 40 yrs and what if he ran. So if he ran that would have been on the person who took responsibility for him which would have been Jay. Now he would have went down for aiding a fugitive.

@Sivenathi Mnxeba well said
@Sivenathi Mnxeba I hear you but in the music industry it's all about relationships and without them you can't make millions on your own. If Jay, Dame and Biggs didn't help him Beans would have made millions. If he signed with another label someone who still be responsible for helping Beans make millions. Jay wouldn't be who he is in hip hop without Biggs and Dame.
Jay gave him a opportunity to make millions, he had to rap for that, rappers only make 4 to 6 cent out of every dollar , you do the math
@Sivenathi Mnxeba correct, artist's only make 6 pennies out of every dollar, he make Jay z millions.
@@davidnix9131 don’t forget,he gave him the opportunity for State Property..
Gave the judge a honest answer lol how could jay monitor a grown man whereabouts ?😂😂
An honest answer?
To THE MAN...
LOL
@St. Louis King it's the same thing as cosigning with the bail bondsman for somebody to make bail. Jay ain't owe him nothing, but for him to not vouch for him at that point in their relationship and business, is foul. Jay wouldn't have gotten in trouble if beanie woulda got in trouble while being "monitored"

@@st.louisking5815 put what on the line? I just told u there were no legal ramifications for Jay if he woulda agreed to letting the courts kno about beans whereabouts and then beans did some dumb shit. Jay had nothing to lose.

Everybody's a tough guy gangster until they gotta be accountable for their own choices.
Beanie took accountability & was a stand up nigga
Das real asf but it’s funny😂😂 because it actually sound like a j type of bar
Nah, Fam. Jay was all too glad to USE Beanie to save Rocafella as a label and as Security for the artists themselves. That’s the problem.
@@blacksuburban2410Why couldn’t Beanie stay out of legal trouble? Wasn’t the whole point of rapping, so he didn’t have to do illegal acts anyone?
@ Well, that’s a misunderstanding of my point. But, I’ll bite. LoL. He “couldn’t stay out of trouble” for the EXACT reasons that Rocafella signed and used him for. They needed The Broad Street Bully because hip hop made flossy rap irrelevant. And Rocafella only had Jay Z, Bleek, and Amil. Beanie Sigel kept the label afloat when they were sinking.
Jay sure had no problem with it when he needed the Broad Street Bully to punch on people and pull up with guns to save people.
Once you're 30 , every single move you make has to be calculated or you're done. People don't understand how hard it is being a man. You have to make sacrifices every frickin day. Win some you lose some but you have to take ownership of every decision you make. Jay-Z isn't a billionaire by accident. You don't make decisions on emotions as a man. Would Jay get to where he is right now if he'd signed off on bienie who was an alcoholic and was going to f up. Jay knew this. If beens killed someone or got killed what then for Jay. He knew the judge was trying to set him up
truedat...Jay always made smart choices regarding people around him
Being broke and 30 give a nigga the CHILLS!!! Realest thing ever wrote. You got to make sacrifices on some level to better your situation. Jay in the end made the right move came at the cost of a friendship but that's the trade off.
Brother, stop the idolatry. Dude is a billionaire because he let some Jewish record exec go all up inside of him. Look at the companies he was ceo of. You guys think if someone got some coins that makes them good. You showing the world exactly who you is son

@Lispboy1A business naw this was the courts and that's directly connected
As a man you have to be accountable and responsible for your damn self.
I would feel embarrassed to have a judge ask another man if he can be responsible for me.
@kingdomofisrael4686 Facts bro. As a grown man having someone to ask another grown man will they be responsible for your whereabouts is as they say sonning you.

Beans put his life on the line for the roc. He deserved something
@@wtf215phillythat’s dumb.. be responsible.
You not a kid.
@sidneyabeljumbo2364 what you mean. It was alot street stuff going on with rocafella. He front lined it. He say it in the interviews. If beans can have your back in urban situations...jay should of had his back in court...

A similar situation happened with Chamillionaire & artist Yung-Ro. If you’re from Houston you know about Cham & Color Changin’ Click. One artist was Yung-Ro, dude was a lyrical beast, but an addict. So when Cham got his deal with Universal he eventually brought several of his former artists with him, Ro being one of them, but Ro fucked up, then blamed everything on Cham. Yung-Ro literally told Cham “you knew better than to give me a million dollars”. Cham wrote a very detailed blog on his MySpace about it explaining the whole situation. Bottom line man you can’t hold a grown man’s hand when your building an empire, that person will keep you from climbing the steps to success.
U cant hold a grown man's hand PERIOD bro💯
Not only can you not be responsible for another man, imagine the man makes fast money does drugs and has friends that are still active in the street.
They could do nothing to jay all he had to do Is say yes if beans fucked again they would've locked beans up not jay
I need to see the rest of this because I’m hoping at some point he also admits that he can understand why J was hesitant to be responsible for him. If a man can’t look back on his life and be honest with himself regarding past behavior and how he may have been perceived because of that behavior then that man has not grown.
Exactly 💯
Later in the interview he did..he admitted to Wildin out..and said now..as a Man..he gets it..
Jay was a sucker for this!
I think beans play victim.......but let's be real I can imagine Jay z getting around beans and saying shit like " if anything ever happens"........" Whenever you need anything I mean anything just call" ect yes Jay z might of meant something like he'd help his car out of impound....not saying beans should have fell for it either...but I can see it happening, dudes make empty promises all the time
@@brudderstyles3479 beans was a victim and I think this for him was an eye opener. I feel he looked at rocafella as a street family, cos sometimes in the streets you Gota have you mans back regardless if you think he’s right or wrong and hash it out behind closed doors but jay was doing traditional business not street business and that’s where beans and dame got it fucked up. For the most part street guys have the highest sense of morality and loyalty but corporate guys are more cutthroat
Jay did right tho...
Entitlement at its finest
Beans that means you were a liability instead of a asset at that time. Beans had a label and a team of artist to take care of. Jay could not be responsible for another grown man. It was not your first time dealing with the law. Beans you messed your money up, not Jay. We have to be responsible for our choices because its not Jay's fault big Bro, its yours.
I think Beans is saying.. he thought this was family. While Jay is saying this is business.
@@bigkassino to be honest it's all Beans fault, he has to be responsible for himself at the end of the day family friend parent adult.
@@thecouncilmagazine9323 I don't disagree but you know the mentality black folks relate to family. Anything for family you kill for em' you die for em'.
That mentality destroys progression. So, they are not helping the movement until they take responsibility for their actions.
Yes.. he said this looking back now he understands he was a little too wild.
When you're the cash cow of the entire operation you can't be held responsible for a live wire. Beans was unpredictable back in the days. He was really living that life and the entire situation was too risky to put on the front line. Beans I ain't trying to change you...just give you some game...to make the transition...from the streets to the fame.
Wow, and those bars are from 2000/2001 ! And you know, Jay Z really tried , he really did , but this is world , energies, responsibilities , they change
Yeah he really did live that life !!! I grew up in Atlantic City and I used to work at a lot of clubs in Philadelphia… He was a local celebrity in the early 2000s…
He used Beanz for that street credibility and live wire-ness when it came to going at fellow rappers that were more inline with the streets but when it came to truly helping out his artist/friends he will always turn his back…..just look at Kanye for instance, he pretty much said the same thing as Beanz did here.
@@deanbrooks7297 Kanye a Billionaire and Rihanna...he taught them the game. Beans kept getting in trouble. Once corporate catch wind of your reputation its a wrap. No business will risk investing money in you if you're a live wire. You can only hold a person hand but for so long. When the split happened they all made a choice. Roc Nation is deeper than rap. They showing ppl how to fish. The rest is up to them.
@@deanbrooks7297 Why did he need street cred? He was already poppin' before they signed Beans. He didn't need him for muscle because they could always hire a dude with nothing to lose for that purpose. Bottom line is Beans was just immature at the time.
I mean there comes a point where dudes don’t wanna play cowboys and Indians anymore. Especially when life is good.
From what I read at the time, Jay asked Beans to cool out because he was bringing heat on everybody else. Beans still went out anyway and racked up an attempted murder charge. Wasn’t his first incident either. Now Beans is in jail and he expects Jay Z to vouch for the same kids whereabouts that wouldn’t listen and placed everyone else’s careers and lives in jeopardy. This is that failure to be accountable thought process that goes along this type of mindset. So if he gets Beans out and he is just as uncontrollable Jay’s whole life is on the line for someone who has shown already he doesn’t listen. Don’t see nothing wrong with Jay’s actions. It would be different if Jay led him to get the charge. Beans was doing beans against everyone else’s authority. Why didn’t one of the other guys in the room vouch for him. Because Beans was out of control and nobody was taking that risk.
Well said
But you forgot the times Beans save Jay life and all the things he did for Rocfella he wasn’t called the General for no reasons now in his time of need you shitted on em, Jay a snake you don’t sell your family
@@officialreplik5095 - So compare what you are saying to the Mafia. You have a guy that completed jobs of protection for the organization.
However he gets to point where the organization can’t control him. They tell him to cool out he is putting the entire business at risk. He ignores that and does it anyway.
This brings heat on himself and potentially others. So if you run the organization you would put everything at risk for the guy who was being insubordinate yesterday?
Jay and Dame saved Beans life and changed his families trajectory by putting him on and giving him the platform to make him rich.
Bottomline is leadership is important in every business. An organization needs its generals to stay in line with the organizations goals or everyone could lose. Jay did what he was supposed to and if he was so wrong how come none of the other partners stepped up to put their freedom up for his bond?
@@officialreplik5095 BECAUSE ITS A RECORD LABEL....A LEGIT BUSINESS!! NOT A CRIMINEL ORGANIZATION!. Artists shouldnt be running around pistol whipping people on some street gang shit.
@@nic-tv4090Well, Jay-Z shouldn't have been asking him to, or even ALLOWING it. Clearly, CLEARLY you forgot about their beef with The L.O.X- which was real beef beyond music and both sides always talk about how, people could have got killed. That wasn't even Beans' beef smh
This thinking reminds me of my brother who was in the streets and was wondering why I changed and grew up. I couldn’t do that street shit no more. But I told them that I’ll always be here for him if he wanted to change. That came back to bite me on the ass more times than I care to admit. Til I had to say no. And that was my flesh. People with this mentality need to grow up
I saw this interview when it first aired but why Jay? If Jay said, “No” why didn’t Dame work behind the scenes and tell the judge he’ll take on the responsibility? Plus, we all know Beans was a wild dude during that time, it’s no way anyone was going to control or make sure he was where he was supposed to be.
Jay-Z was 100 percent right. I know and have family like this. He said no because he understands you like a family member does. Call this the intervention. The day of tough love is going to come.
Now here u are sayin "What if I needed to RUN, from my charge??..I was facing 40 yrs." And u wonder why Jay "DIDNT Agree" to that bullshit that the judge said. Then that sh" wouldve been on Jay, smh3:20
This Dude had the world!! Literally....he never went Platinum! Basically, he made bad decisions! Wasted so much money
As a REAL man you have to be responsible for your own actions. None of that sh*t falls on ANYONE else. What ever you decide to do to put yourself in an awful situation like that falls squarely on YOUR shoulders. It is during that TIME...during that solace that one recognizes that. It is no one's responsibility to look out for a man UNLESS he is mentally incapable to do so for himself...other than that stop making excuses and stand accountable for your actions. The times that I was locked down was because of MY doing...no one elses!!
All jay had to do was to say yes
Hip hop has got to be the only business where an entry level employee has friendships with the CEO. At some point you got to stop being a burden to your company. Now I'm sure Jay Z also blurred the lines between friendship and business as well to create this expectation
That is a very interesting perspective
You can't be responsible for a person with a drug problem.
If jay would've said "Yes" and take responsibility for him. Guess what? If Beans would've got in trouble again (which was highly likely because he was reckless) they would use that as an opportunity to aggressively go after jay and hold him personally responsible for any crime Beanie commits. This would be a wet dream scenario for them, because they love taking down high-profile celebrities, especially former criminals like jayz who turned their life around to now make more money than most people make in a lifetime. I gotta give it to jay, he made an incredibly wise decision to say - No. Saying - yes, could've very easily put jay in a very bad situation if Beanie messed up again.
No they wouldnt
@@eatemup88 You're absolutely delusional if you honestly think, they wouldn't charge a high-profile celebrity for taking responsibility for a criminal.
LOL Man u wrong as hell
Definitely would have come after Jay with extreme force after Beans messed up "Inevitably" again.
You have to understand, D.A's build their careers off such. Putting a high profile individual behind bars and off the publicity enter into politics.
Anyone thinking otherwise is purposely hating or delusional. D.A threw Biggs in jail for introducing two people, Biggs at the time was an immensely successful legitimate co-CEO of Rocafella yet the D.A tied him to a BS case with "Conspiracy" which means you don't need to prove Biggs actual involvement.
A BROTHER NOT A BROTHER IF BROTHER AINT GOT UR BACK THATS A FACT
A man ain’t a man if a man can’t take responsibility that’s more facts son.
I feel Jay did the right thing with Beans but I also feel he did do a lot of people dirty,especially Dame!
Dame Dash was incredible at finding talented people, he found Kanye and everyone in Roc-A-Fella thought he was a weirdo and has so much negative shit to say about him,but Dame knew he had something special,Kevin Hart too!
Lmao wrong as usual the frigging internet
The judge put Jay-Z in a no win situation, so I can understand his move, however, if Beans was his dude, his brother, no doubt he should have said yes your honor I will. But that was a heavy asked, to be responsible for a KNUCKLEHEAD, i.e. C-Murder, Master P. loves his brother but was not willing to let his brother take down the whole ship!
1000000 percent
Of all the things Jay did for him and all he remembers us him saying no which he probably needed
That decision could’ve also involved him in a Rico if one went out
He was still talking about being on the run! Jay HAD to say no! 😑
Can't stand people that can't take responsibility for their action this the same dude that drove a Bentley to a cesspool environment all his misfortunes he blames on exterior forces plain entitlement outer directive personality. Beans hard state property clothing couple of gold albums he had a way out but some how found himself in court and no aam not makin this stuff up
I saw the B Coming album as Jay passing the reins to Beans....that record should've had at least 2 singles on the radio...
I just went through this ish, grown men don't understand that you got so much against you, you can't carry another man's bad habits and decisions.
I'm building a legacy for my daughters
Kanye did say that Jay is selfish so...there ya go.
Nah. Jay is self conscious.
Well, for years and based on other interviews I was like thang jay could have looked out, until his time was clear then you on your own. But now hearing what Siegel saying & knowing that you cannot be responsible for a grown persons where abouts even if you wanted to. Jay did the right thing. 1. In the interview just now, beanies said, and i quote what if I had to get out, like be on the run type stuff. Well then you would either screwed jay over or he would have had to be on the run as well.
2. You cannot always know and be responsible for a grown person’s whereabouts even if you are they parent because you can not be with anyone 24-7-365. Including your spouse
When He Said “What If I Needed To Get Out Of Jail.” He Meant “What If The Beef In Jail; Would Have Caused Him To Get Hurt, Or Worse-Murdered.” 💯
@@catchemstreetz3139 I know and , I understand that’s what he meant but if you listen again after he says what if I had to roll be on the run & go, because he was facing possibly 40 years. Listen to that, and even still why was he obligated to be responsible for a grown man where abouts, beans is one of my favorite rappers & I don’t like jay z but he has to eventually face the fact that, he knew the type of career Rocafella was offering. He was in jail because he choose that life over his career. It would be one thing if he did something for one of them and that’s why he was in jail. And he stood tall. I can’t stand a lot of our people never take ownership for they crap.
He he thought Jay held the type of loyalty he do but he don't that's how it go. Everybody not like you.
Yall sounds stupid if u listened he said they were on tour. Tours are pre set he could have easily gave the dates,times, and location of the shows i see u dudes have no loyalty.
Man beans know he dropped the bag. Jay had Beans in everything , but beans could not stop being in the streets. Bleek told a story how when he was on tour with jayz, he was sent back home because he wasn’t in the right mind frame. When he realized what Jay was trying to do for him , he got his ish together and never looked back. Beans could not stay out of trouble. 2:51 that’s way to much to ask jayz to do , he was trying to move in another direction, he had no time to babysit you. if he would of said yes , beans would of never stopped doing what he was doing.
Oh I get it now...if Jay-Z would have said "yes"...they would have been watching HIM(Jay-Z) too...THAT'S why he said No...
Reality always set in when you shackled down face them charges, the problem with rap is we don't know how to separate friends, family, and business its always our downfall especially when you dealing with dudes that come from nothing they literally have nothing else, but if you look at Rocafella as a whole outside of Jay-Z with the exception of Kanye nobody else on the Roc popped. All things come to an end everybody thought they were going to ride that wave forever.
Well bleek went platinum n 2 golds same for cam, n beans went gold a bunch n the young gunz but you right nobody before Kanye actually blew up. They was solid tho.
@@420blowingsmoke Bleek had a platinum album?
So, Beans wouldn’t do right on his own, and Jay said nawww to the judge- that was for a reason Another man shouldn’t be responsible for you like that. Beans gotta take some responsibility!
It looks like they infiltrated the roc.. jaey was like a godfather for smooth talking rhymestyles.. many came after..
if you a real hip hop head ,you know beans was "out" there,we also know how selfish Jay can be,some ppl come in your life for a reason some for season,all he knew was south Philly,and based a business situation on street ethics,big mistake,he should've embraced as an opportunity and that was it,he got too comfortable,and based business on sentiment....
When you think about the amount of time your "friend" is about to serve and you didn't even ask any questions..you just said "no"...why did you even show up with your wife...sounds like Jay showed up to make sure he really was going away for years...let that sink in.
You not my man putting me in a situation to have to monitor you.
Shame is if the roles were reverse bean's would have aaid 100000% yes to the judge for Jay. Shows u who the real ones are.
In reverse, Jay wouldn't f#cked the bag up this many times. He learned from his mistakes.
Nah!! It’s you dudes that think not snitching on murderers is cool. It’s totally bs. And it’s all loyalty until it’s one of your family members that gets murdered then y’all be singing like Luther asking for justice. Smh.

This was not a street situation for Jay. It wasn’t like Jay was with him while he was doing this and got away. I’ll say this and leave it there…
Most people posting on this video have jobs. Go do some stupid stuff on your off time and get caught. I bet you, the company CEO is not coming to speak for you or taking responsibility for any of your actions. It’s that simple. Plus Dame and Biggs were part owners of the company. Why didn’t the judge ask them the same question? The courts knew what they were doing when they ask Jay that question. It’s not being “selfish” because you decide to chose yourself.
Bullshit… Kevin Liles Co founder and CEOof 300 Entertainment just vouched for Young Thug to the judge so he can be released said that he will take full responsibility for him …. Jay Z ain’t loyal Dame than said that plenty of times even Kanye just said on drink champs he selfish.
@@amunraptha5281 and Kevin Liles doing that did what? These courts know what they doing. They always try to take down the head to allow the rest to fall. All this Jay is selfish and played Dame is complete bullshit. Y’all need to do research. Why don’t Dame ever admit that he was stealing money from Roc-A-Fella for his own interest? What don’t Dame admit Def Jam hired a forensics accountant to comb through Roc-A-Fella’s finances and found out that Dame had took so much money, it devalued the Roc. Why don’t Dame admit that Jay told him Def Jam was going to offer him The Roc so he warned them and offered Dame and Biggs the entire Roc catalog in exchange for Reasonable Doubt and Dame declined because he was bitter that Jay was moving on. This is all public information. Ain’t nobody being loyal to no shit like that. Stop reading these rap magazines and start reading the business sections of newspapers and magazines and you’ll learn something. All these rappers and haters lying to y’all and y’all believing it.

If you watch the whole interview Beans takes accountability for alll this. Y’all be jumping the gun in the comments
y’all ninjas worst than 304’s if that’s ya man, ya brother, yea ima be responsible for my bro
FAXXX WHATS UP WITH THESE PPL BRUH
Don’t put yourself there, and you won’t need no one to be there for you.
You simply can't take everyone with you because some elements will bring everything down with jealousy and reckless envy
I'm not gonna be the one to help keep a leash on you bro...... I understand the message
🗣A grown man shouldn't be responsible for another man's whereabouts. WTF! Beans put himself in that situation. It's called accepting accountability.
Key words......
"Responsible For....."
FUCK NO!!!!
Grown Men still looking at life from an immature, unwise perspective.....
It's sad that he doesn't get it!
The word responsible scared him at the same time if they told him to chill and get money and he didn’t listen then wat makes you think they think you will listen now
Any reasonable individual would have said "Im not responsible for his whereabouts".
Its a trap. Beans was on some grown man ish. You can't tell me nuthin'.
Hence, the reason we sittin' in court.
So Jay vouches then Beans gets on and does his grown man. Then he is a liability for Jay.
So when the boys come knockin Jay is open to damages or, he has to tell on him.
Either scenario is a no-go to a reasonable person.
Its a f*ckin record label. The fact that Beans and his fans think it was a gang is on them.
Games fans think the same sh*t about 50.
"Its just music, man its just music"
Some of yall out here try the hardest to make these verbal movies real life.
The way jay did Beanie and Dame how can anyone be a fan of jayz
In about 15years you’ll get it
They both played themselves.
What if I need to be on the road and go lol jay was 1000% right to say no
Still don't understand why Jay didn't say yes to that question from the judge. Nothing would've happened to him if Beans got in trouble again.
Reputation. If you signed to my label and you known for violence in the streets and goin in and outta of jail, thats a bad look for my reputation as a businessman. Jay was thinking waaay ahead into the future. I doubt he could have got as far as he did keeping a dude like Beans around.
This is what I'm saying. If Beans gets out and does some dumb shit,then its like hey I tried to help you bruh. I'm thinking/hoping all these people in the replies don't realize Jay-Z would not have gotten in any trouble at all regardless. I'm gettin my people up out of there under those circumstances.
@@karimabdul-qawi524lmao that’s naive. Jayz was not the only CEO of rocafella tho. Why do you think the judge didn’t ask Dame or Biggs to vouch for beans? They went straight to the cash cow why’s that? Cos they were hoping Jay would slip up
If Bean went on the run or hurt someone else Jay would have gotten sucked into all that and whose boss or company would do that in real life. This was a work relationship not a gang. Beans would have had the whole company in turmoil like Murder Inc ended up in dealing with Supreme and everyone could have lost behind his drug addict antics.
“Collect call!?…. Beanzzz!!?…. Hellllll nahh… I ain’t suppose to be associating with convicted fede de dellons no way! Niggaaa! Betta have my money”
Why would you put yourself and Jay, in a position, to have to say NO. We’re all responsible for our own actions, I don’t see anything wrong
, with what Jay said.
I understand Jay's concern but when the Judge asked him that he was only saying can we trust you to keep an eye on him. The Judge knows that Jay can only do so much, and if it went left, the court couldn't have done anything to Jay. Its similar to a recognizance bond.
Don’t be naive
Idgaf what nobody says.jay could've done that.what was going to happened to Jay if thing's had failed? Nothing.the judge would've just been mad
Lol son! Jay was a lucky former criminal too. You think the judge just chose jay? Why didn’t the judge choose Dame, Biggs? They was looking for a way to get jigga on the hook.
Pointing the finger at everyone else but yourself.
The Elites in the music business made Jay Z get rid of beans
Tough love can be the greatest love...
Jay probably was like bruh I ain't getting involved in that shit. You shooting people and Im a multi millionaire. Jay keep it real with himself , I hate it happened like that but how can he be responsible for you beans? You was Wildin, he ain't really trust you to stay out of trouble .
Butch y the volume so low
“Grown men want me to sit’em on my lap, but I don’t have a beard and Santa clause ain’t black”
I love Beans, but he got shot 2x & got knocked out in his own city on top of multiple legal issues. Jay can't be responsible for a grown man...
Beanie was a grown man. They should have never asked Jay Z to be responsible for a grown man. He didn't want to be caught up in Beanie's shenanigans. He was wilding out. Jay Z had his own life, why would he be checking Beanie's every move. I would have said no, too.
Beans has literally saved Jay. more than once. set the record straight
Never
Who cares?!?! Beanz was reckless as heck! If he jacked up again(which all signs pointed to yes) now Rock-A-Fella could be in jeopardy. No thanks, im not letting him bring down an organization because he's a hot head. I can't be responsible for A GROWN ASS MAN!
Why you just wake up no brushing your teeth just get on the internet to spread LIES
Bro stop. He saved Jay. Lyrically and in the streets. And saved Jay image.
And he saved Kanye life. Stfu @@jaa534
Ppl say what they want about Jay in this situation but nobody worth a couple hundred M's woulda said "yes" to that stipulation. You gotta a bunch of shit goin on and now u gotta baby sit a grown ass man, monitor and report ALL of his whereabouts to a judge and if he messes up then you might get in trouble too... I woulda looked Beans in his face and said "U my man but i cant do this"
No man is responsible for another where abouts.
Jay is his family but after so many issues, he could mo longer be his baby sitter. That happens with family all the time. Beans can’t expect a babysitter every time. At some point, your fam is gonna have to take a step back
I’m surprised by these comments. I really thought everyone was going to be bashing Jay. I mean yeah why is a grown man going to volunteer himself to be responsible for another grown man’s whereabouts. And he made the right choice, listen to what Beans was saying, he’s talking about running away? Yeah Jay would’ve gotten jammed up if Beans fled.
How can you be responsible for a person who is still acting a fool??
I didn't hear hom blame Jay once in his statements He said the environment he was from, he said his mindset at the time he said he was hurt by Jays decision because Roc assay that time was the only thing he had that was good and because he was invested in it in many ways except for in a business way
Lol
Beans would’ve put Jay in a position where he would’ve commit perjury because he would NOT have stayed in pocket.
Whereabouts not his actions
@@ygtupac1358 so you think beans would’ve stayed in pocket. As wreckless as he was. For 6 months or a year or more while waiting on trial? You sir are wylin.
@@ahopkins1978 you’re assuming someone would get in trouble you dont know for sure . Jay could of just kept him in studio , he was coming from house arrests , and important show
@@bentheisraelite you’re right. I am. I guess Jay assumed the same thing based on what he seen and experienced with Beans.
@@ygtupac1358 I think you forgot the key phrase after whereabouts,
"provide information" SMH
Nah jay could’ve brought him home smh
Jayz a pizza sheet for that. Regardless of whatever I wouldve got Beans out
Oye, when they said Responsible for his where abouts, they meant Responsible for his actions 🎬 so 🤷 another man cannot be Responsible for another man's actions I see where J' coming from, but I also see where Bean's coming from Word
Now Jay’s line about grown men wanting to sit on his lap like he’s Santa Claus makes sense. Genius lyrics
Not only Beans, DMX, LL cool J etc. “Jayz didn’t do this or that for me” smh
U my man I got ur back no matter what ..
we handle that and go back and talk about how wrong u was in private ..
u leave ur man in hell?
Dehaven and beans got left behind for the greater of Jay ..
that’s lame and shows his true colors…
B BUGGIN* GROW UP AND JAY WAS ACTUALLY RITE AND YOU SHOULD HAVE THANKED SON!!
I wouldn’t be responsible for Beans either. Too much at stake, I don’t have time to baby sit you too
I realize it took everyone 20 years to realize that Jay wasnt treating them wrong, he was making them be accountable for themselves. When you got nothing to lose you dont care when you got something to lose you have to make uncomfortable choices
Thank god it wasn’t em that said no, the response wouldn’t look the same 😂
Jay was dead wrong. Period. You go get your man that's going to ride or die for you. Even if beans would have messed up on bail, that money would've been crumbs to Jay. In that moment Jay proved that he really didn't rock with beans and that beans was nothing more than a disposable artist to him. Everybody in the rap game isn't real. Most of these rap guys just rap about street and real things. Understand the difference.
Rough Riders never left DMX behind no matter what he did or how many times he went to jail, not once.
Philly dudes is snakes an complaining about jay z he literally just admitted Philly dudes will smile with you and back stab he then complaining about jay z doing it the ddue is a full hypocrite

Ok so a grown man chose to not be responsible for another grown man who didn't see all that he had and behaved irresponsibly.
Lol,, Reading these comments I can't help but to laugh.. Jay Z made alot of bread of these young cats, stole publishing and raps.. The judge asked him to keep a eye on him.. I don't think that's much to ask. If beans wouldve fucked up and got arrested again that's not on Jay. No bail had to be put up.. Beans Is grown and has to take accountability but he had every right to be disappointed in a guy he looked up to like a big brother... Remember when Kanye was in that diner bout to get robbed they called beans not Jay..
Awwwww poor you
Even after all these years this man is STILL acting like Jay did him wrong, if he can’t see why J was not WILLING to be responsible for him, he hasn’t grown as a man, BS was a good rapper, but he hasn’t grown as a man. P.S. BS need to be addressing his bullshit. Imagine trying to be responsible for a hot headed adult, I’ll wait! 😳
