The success of these newcomers has helped put the spotlight back on a number of veteran artists. Beanie Sigel, at one point, was Philadelphia’s biggest rap act, as he was signed to the popular Roc-A-Fella Records.
Beanie Sigel, along with the rest of the roster, left Roc-A-Fella Records in 2008 and returned to the mixtape scene. Five years since the release of his last album, Beanie Sigel has a new album on the way. This Time is the name of Beanie Sigel’s latest album and it will be released in four days.
