Beanie Sigel is expanding his business beyond music, venturing into the food and beverage world with his new food truck, ‘Grab & Roll, Wings & Bowls.’
The truck can be found in The Broad Street Bully’s hometown of Philadelphia at 2400 Passyunk Ave., available Wednesday through Saturday from 4 to 10pm. It offers aptly-named items that play off of his lyrics and affiliations, with a menu that includes local staples like cheesesteaks, chicken wings and fried seafood as well as both breakfast and dessert.

In other news, Beanie revealed earlier this year that he’s forgiven the man who shot and nearly killed him a decade ago.
In 2014, the Philadelphia rapper was shot twice in the back and as a result was left in a coma.

Reflecting on the shooting during an April interview on Sway In the Morning, Beanie was asked if he could forgive his shooter.
He replied: “You have to. When you understand, you have to. How can you not forgive if you want forgiveness? ‘Cause there’s gonna be a time where everybody gon’ need forgiveness.

“When you cross all the way over and you ain’t here no more, you gon’ need forgiveness from [God] or can’t nobody gon’ forgive you.”
When asked if forgiving his shooter brings him a sense of freedom and peace, Beans answered: “I’m not gonna say that feeling goes away, but it just makes you more conscious of certain decisions.

“For me, what it did was, it lifted the burden off of me from knowing things that I’ve done in my life. It lifted a little bit of that off of me.”
Nobody was ever arrested for the drive-by shooting of Sigel, though it is not believed the rapper was the intended victim as he had just taken his children to school.
The incident came shortly after Beanie was released from prison after he served time for tax and drug charges.
At the time, officers investigating put the shooting down to an argument between two different parties.

Pleasantville Police Chief Jose Ruiz said: “Apparently, there was a struggle of some type, which led to Mr. Grant [Beanie Sigel] being shot and that is all we have at this point.”
