Beanie Sigel is scheduled to enter prison in September, just two weeks after releasing his fifth solo studio album, This Time.
According to Sig, the rush affected the amount of time he could spend on his album.
“Actually, I was running out of time. I was glad that I had enough material recorded to even put the album together,” said Beans in an interview on MTV’s “RapFix Live.” “I was probably only like 80 percent of really getting into my zone on this project, but at 50 percent, my 50 percent is better than people’s 100 percent.”
Beanie also discussed State Property’s role on Roc-A-Fella Records, and the group’s status relative to others in Hip Hop. “As a unit, I don’t think there’s a unit out there as talented as State Property in so many areas. Not only just lyrically but our stage presence, our performance, our energy that we give out, the songs that we make.”
“We carried the flagship for Roc-A-Fella for years, we was Roc-A-Fella.”

lol Beans is already making excuses if the fans thing his album is weak.
nag, nag, nag say something postive Beanie
why is it always an excuse with him – your last jail stint was a min ago – mad time to create material. should have used that energy he had to diss Jay for months to make some music in a diff direction.
whats his excuse for the album cover?
i know right? shit reminds me of those wack-azz late 90’s Cash Money/No Limit album covers
Wow – I was going to actually purchase this and the Slaughterhouse albums on Tuesday. Beans just saved me $15.
“my 50 percent is better than people’s 100 percent”
Keep telling yourself that.
Keep listening to wack shit and denying it
I agree. He just saved me some money and it’s a shame too cause I like Beans. Now I understand why Jay left these no work ethic, drug abusing cats behind. You can’t hold another grown man by the hand forever.

LOL..SP was aight, but DIPSET was ROC….not SP!
“one more for Cam for taking over the Roc”
