Beanie Sigel never ran, never will.
Flashback to 2001, Brooklyn's Jay-Z and Queen's Nas are embroiled in a legendary rap beef. Nas let off the shot heard round the world with "Ether", but the battle between Hov and Nas was far from over. It got even more personal as Jigga would claim that he had slept with Nas' baby's mom.
They continued to beef well into 2002. By that time the boroughs had chosen sides, QB was firmly behind Nas just as BK was for Jigga.
Either assuming he would be ok in Queens, or just not giving a f*ck, Beanie Sigel and Young Chris of the Young Gunz decided to perform at a club in Queens.
In the eyes of some in the Queens crowd though, being that Beans and Chris were signed to Roc-A-Fella Records at the time, they were seen as the enemy.
As Beanie & Chris perform someone throws something at them, prompting Beanie to throw his mic into the crowd.
While not everything was caught on tape. There's enough footage to show that both Beanie and Chris were lucky to get out of there alive that night.
Reportedly someone was shout outside of the venue and later died.

A young Long Island man who brutally murdered his mother-in-law "is not profiting from her death," his lawyer insisted yesterday, even though the killer stands to collect nearly a half-million dollars from the slain woman's estate as early as this week.
Brandon Palladino's lawyer said the 24-year-old rightfully inherited the money from his wife, Deanna Palladino, who died of an overdose last year.
Deanna was willed the fortune by her mother, Dianne Edwards, 59, whom Palladino choked to death in 2008 when she came home and caught him stealing her jewelry.
Deanna was suspected of conspiring in the theft but was never charged.
"He would be the only heir, because they didn't have any children," Palladino's lawyer, Ray Perini, said.
Deanna loved her husband "dearly and supported him until she died. He's not profiting from [Edwards'] death. The money passed to his wife, and it was hers to do with as she wanted."
Brandon will get a check for up to $500,000 as soon as this week, sources said yesterday.
"Morally, it really shocks the conscience. He shouldn't get a dime!" said Edwards family lawyer Dennis Lemke.
"It's a tough pill to swallow, but action is extremely unlikely to be successful [under current state law]," Lemke said.
Palladino, who admitted to the crime in exchange for a plea deal, is set to be sentenced to just 5 to 25 years next week.
"Perhaps the murderer's family will have a conscience and return the estate to the proper owners -- the family of the victim," Lemke said.
A source said that a Suffolk prosecutor asked him to give up his inheritance as part of the plea bargain and that Palladino refused.
The total estate was estimated at about $680,000 -- $581,000 after debts, according to sources and court documents.
Deanna Palladino received her mom's $190,000 in savings after her death, sources said. She used most of it to bankroll her husband's defense.
The victim's five-bedroom Melville home was sold in November for $340,000.
After debts, the profit from the sale of the home came to $241,000. The slain woman's personal property was estimated at about $150,000.
"It doesn't make sense. He can't profit from this," insisted Donna Larsen, the sister of the murdered woman.
"He robbed her before he murdered her, and now he's robbing her again after her death," said Larsen's husband, Andy.

TENINO, Wash. -- The woman whose body was found in the front seat of a man's pickup truck has been identified.
Investigators said Vanda S. Boone, 60, died after being repeatedly stabbed on a bike trail in Tenino on Sunday afternoon.
Boone had recently moved from New York to Yelm, according to friends. She was staying with a friend and was working part-time as a massage therapist in Olympia.
Boone is said to be a follower of JZ Knight, the founder of the Yelm-based Ramtha's School of Enlightenment. On Tuesday, Knight released a written statement which said the school would take care of the funeral arrangements.

Police have arrested Bernard Howell, III under investigation of second-degree murder in Boone's death.
Howell, 26, was pulled over while driving his pickup truck near Tenino on Monday. Boone's body was found inside the car.
Erik Kohnhors, told KOMO News Howell showed up on the doorsteps of his Tenino home on Sunday afternoon, agitated, covered in sweat and desperate.
"He was trying to get me to help him move something, and I asked him if it was heavy and stuff, and he said, 'Yeah,' " Kohnhorst said. "His clothes were kind of messed up."
Kohnhorst later surmised Howell was asking him to help move the body.
"That's the only thing I can figure," Kohnhorst said.
Hours later, investigators said a man spotted Howell along Highway 507 near the trail from Yelm to Tenino, loading a body into his truck by himself.
The man told police Howell had asked him to put the body in the passenger seat as his truck bed contained a large, white refrigerator he used to store meat.
The man refused, drove into town and flagged down a deputy. The deputy spotted the truck a short time later and stopped the driver near Tenino Elementary School.
Chief Criminal Deputy Jim Chamberlain said Howell admitted he had a body in his pickup, adding he found the body along the trail and was trying to save the family the cost of a funeral.
Witness Jerry Jones said he watched as officers pulled the victim's body out of the truck, wrapped in plastic and a sleeping bag.
Truck driven by Bernard Howell "You could see between the truck and rear wheel. Here, this person was laying," Jones said.
Investigators said they found the victim's wallet and keys under the front seat.

Officials also said they are looking into whether Howell may be connected to the disappearance of Nancy Moyer, who vanished from Tenino last year.
The 36-year-old mother of two was last seen in March 2009. Her front door was found open, with all her belongings still inside and her car was in the driveway.
Detectives said they have not found anything that links Howell to the case, but are planning to question him as a part of their investigation.
In the meantime, investigators have released a photo of the truck Howell was driving, and are asking anyone who saw the truck in the Tenino area on Sunday to give the Thurston County Sheriff's Office a call.
Howell has a history of mental illness, according to his father. He faces another court hearing Thursday where prosecutors hope to charge him and send him to Western State Hospital for a full evaluation.
Howell is being held on $750,000 bail.

As previously reported on PaperChaserDotCom, Laurence Fishburne's daughter, Montana has embarked upon a career in porn.
The 19 year old believes she can achieve mainstream success eventually, by going this unconventional route.
Other Hollywood stars like Paris Hilton, Pamela Anderson, Kim Kardashian and most recently Kendra Wilkinson have all had sex tapes leak without it having an adverse affect on their careers.
In fact, you could argue that Paris and Montana's idol, Kim K. are even more famous because of their sex tapes.
So who's to say if this will work for Montana aka "Chippy D".
Vivid Entertainment is the same company that produced the XXX tapes of Kardashian and Wilkinson. They plan on releasing Fishburne's self titled tape August 18.
"Montana made up her mind to make this DVD before we met her," Vivid co-founder/chairman Steven Hirsch said. "She grew up in the entertainment business and was well aware of our company. In looking at the careers of many current leading female personalities, she saw a path to success and hopes to follow it."
Still though, you would think that with a father who has starred in movies like 'The Matrix', 'King Of New York', 'Deep Cover', 'Boyz In Da Hood' and so many other great films, Montana would have been able to get a break in Hollywood without taking off her clothes.
Oh well.......
