Atlanta’s DJ Drama weclomed home Sigel on social media following a jail stint last August.

Earlier in the summer, Houston rap veteran Scarface promised Sigel was going to hit the rap game hard once he completed his bid.

“Every song that you hear from me, from now on, is going to be meant with malicious intent, everything that’s coming out of my mouth,” Face said in an interview with DJ Whoo Kid. “It’s going to be, you know, okay? I’m gonna be straigth up f*cking real with you, man. It’s gonna be tough to f*ck with that boy, man. I’m telling you, go get ’em. I know when he get out, every lyric he spits is gonna be with malicious intent. It’s gonna be hard to f*ck with that boy, too. Yeah, man. [laughs]” (“Whoolywood Shuffle”)

  1. I wish him a speedy recovery. I also wish some of the real street rappers like Beanie could try to take what they’ve earned and learned over the years and move away from this violent lifestyle. In light of what’s going on with the Garner and Brown deaths, we all need to do our best to get along with one another and respect each other and use our minds to come together.

  2. Seem like beans can’t catch a break
