New York Hot 97 DJ Funkmaster Flex had a few words to say about the Jay-Z and Beanie Sigel quarrel.
Earlier in the week, Sigel ripped Jigga apart in his new single Average Cat. After the single was released, Sigel and Hov haven't come to an agreement. But yesterday (October 3), 50 Cent told Philadelphia Power99 personality Miss Jones the lowdown of why they were not getting along.
But now Funkmaster Flex is putting his two-cents in with the situation by stating, "Jay should have freed Beans from his roster a while back. It's a hard position," the DJ said. "[But] I think Jay should've let Sigel go in the first inkling that he wanted to be someplace else."
He continues by agreeing with Hov rather with Sigel saying, "I do agree with Jay-Z with something," he shared. "He did allow Sigel every opportunity with the clothing line, record label and his record deal. And I don't think Sigel did anything wrong but the game changed to where it wasn't profitable anymore with labels. The clothing business wasn't doing what it was doing. I don't know if he didn't do something or if the game just changed, because there were a lot of people with clothing lines," Flex said.
Although Jay-Z haven't disrespect Beanie Sigel, Flex thinks Jigga is the better man. "Jay's not gonna respond, he don't have to," he said. "He's the richest rapper and he just dropped a hot album. Let's keep it 100, T-Pain, I love T-Pain. I love Sigel. I love a lot of the artists that are out there and ain't nobody saying this album is wack."
