Beanie Sigel vs. Jadakiss was one of the most formidable rap beefs of the 2000’s. It involved multiple searing diss tracks and eventually spread to a crew riff, thus birthing the memorable Roc-A-Fella/Lox tension. These diss tracks didn’t consist of the subliminal shots and witty entendres that we’ve become accustomed to, either. These were direct shots that sometimes crossed perceived boundaries, but it was all in the name of very competitive rap.
Sigel and ‘Kiss buried the hatchet long ago, have been photographed together several times in recent months, and have even appeared on tracks together, like DJ Khaled’s 2011 cut “Problem.” Still, it’s always a noteworthy moment when they join forces, and that has happened again today as part of Trojan Magnum’s The Compound Gold Project, which is a promotional compilation of hard-hitting rap collaborations featuring the likes of Jim Jones, Joey Bada$$, Dave East and more. Beans and Kiss get together for “Dinero,” and you can listen to it below.
