Beanie Sigel's new CD "The B.Coming" hits this week, Tuesday March 1st. Here's the advance word from hiphopgame.com (via mtv.com):
Beanie Sigel's sending out a red alert for his new album. He says he's already got enough gems to deem the disc a classic, but since The B-Coming's release date has been pushed back, he wants to give a few of his favorite producers a chance to make the cut.
"Whoever wants to get on this project, you'd better have the illest sh--, 'cause I'm closing out," Beans said earlier this week. "We got a couple people like Kanye [West] trying to make it. I put a [call] out on RZA. I've never worked with RZA, but I know he can come with something dirty. I know [DJ] Premier can come with something crazy."
The B-Coming as it stands now is a tight ship with just a few producers on the roster. DJ Scratch, Chad West, Aqua and Heavy D are among the ones who supplied beats. The only other MCs Sigel names as track accomplices are Busta Rhymes, Bun B, Redman, Twista and Peedi Crakk.
"I think I took him back to 'Rated "R," ' " Sigel said of working with Redman, referring to a track off Red's 1992 LP, Whut? Thee Album. "No concept, I wouldn't even want to do a concept song with Redman. That was somebody who I was f---in' with before I started rapping. [On my new song,] I had the beat from Bink. I wasn't gonna use no hook, no nothing. I kept listening to it and thinking what else I was going to do. I gave them 48 bars straight. The song is called 'One Shot Deal.' I was gonna do the 48 and bring it back to the beginning, but I was like, 'Redman will sound crazy on this joint.' I sent it to him and it came back crazy."
