Beans says that he wasn't actually dissing Kiss in that line, but tensions were so high that one could see how he felt that way. Now, with this statement, it would seemingly kick off the beef, as shots were sent through random freestyles and verses, and even Kiss took offense to a line Beans said about a car(that Kiss apparently had just bought). That may have been a starting point, but as Beanie began gaining more attention, there were a lot of comparisons to Jada in style and lyricism to which I believe Jada remarked that he felt some Philly cats were stealing his style. There was also speculation that subliminal disses were being sent from both camps before the beef officially started, but one theory is that Jada felt a way about Jay getting on the Mya "Best Of Me" remix (and even the R Kelly "Fiesta" remix), making Jada's verse on the original completely irrelevant at the time. Now, the true details of what caused a rift between the two are hard to really come by, but at some point it transferred over to Beans and Jada. It also seemed that there was an issue with Jada and Jay. No one knows exactly what caused this particular problem, but it has been alluded to over the years and once they stopped working together musically, speculation grew. The first sign of what started the beef could be seen as an issue between Jay-Z and DMX. Now, Jada and Beans seemed to have been friends or at least associates in earlier years before the beef came about in 2001, and the speculation over the beginning of the beef still runs rampant. More for the blocks and the neighborhoods that truly appreciated the mixtapes, freestyles, and competition with bars.
While the Jay and Nas beef may have been more hyped and mainstream, the Jada and Beans beef was more for the streets. One beef that is etched forever in hip hop history is the beef between Jadakiss and Beanie Sigel. Some albums, some performances, some tracks, are forever etched. Only time will tell if Lloyd can match the long-term success of Usher, R&B’s reigning boy-wonder-turned-crown-prince, but even if Lloyd were to disappear tomorrow he’d be remain in the memory of untold millions of unrequited crushes, first kisses, and slow dances.There are moments in hip hop that last forever and remain important in history. All of Street Love is designed to put a little heat under your collar, but the burning, breathless “What You Wanna Do” is enough to make even the coldest old maid feel like she’s caught up in some forbidden dancefloor grind. Other highlights include “Get It Shawty,” a spare and hypnotic club track that slyly incorporates the chorus from Technotronic’s 1989 staple “Pump Up the Jam,” and “One For Me,” a halftime ballad that is a perfect balance between the sensitive and the seductive. The smash hit “You” is about a player changing his ways for the love of a girl, but when Lloyd sings the refrain - “Can I be your friend? / This is how I feel / I’m in need of love” - he sounds as melted by his own emotions as the girls do by his mellifluous voice. The other part is that Lloyd sings every song with a desire that is all-encompassing and absolutely sincere. Part of it is that the 21-year-old Lloyd sounds like a teenager: his fragile, yearning voice has more than little in common with Michael Jackson at his most tender. has a voice that captures the overwhelming rush of teenage love better than any other current r’n’b singer. New Orleans native Lloyd Harlan Polite Jr.
