Released in the early hours of Friday, October 30 “What You Talkin Bout” premiered on DJ Kay Slay’s radio show on HOT97.

“The rapper Shawn called the police on me/cause I was front row at the Blueprint 3/Shit I just wanted to see him MC/ And reminisce on when we was the R.O.C./But he called all the C.O.P’s, not only that, he brought out the F.E.D’s/So that’s telling me ‘F You Sieg,’/So F you too and F Bleek three,” Sigel raps on “What You Talkin Bout.”
Following the release of the song Sigel [click to read] spoke with 100.3 The Beat’s Charlamagne Tha God to make a few clarifications.

“Jay in another place and I understand that. He did what he did as far as signing people to Roc-A-Fella Records, you did that,” Sigel explained to Charlamagne. “But as far as the push that people coulda got that really could have did things, you didn’t do that.”
Jay-Z has yet to respond to Sigel’s claims and “What You Talkin Bout.”
