State Property is a rap crew from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA led by Roc-A-Fella Records rapper Beanie Sigel and comprised of Philly rappers Freeway, Peedi Crakk, Oschino & Sparks, and the Young Gunz (Young Chris and Neef Buck). State Property was signed to Jay-Z's Roc-A-Fella Records, but their future as a group is in dispute.

After group head Beanie Sigel's incarceration in 2004, his relationship with the State Property camp went sour. Beanie complained that the rest of State Property was not showing him support while he was in jail, saying no one except Oschino from his group came to visit him. When the Roc-A-Fella split occurred, he also made the decision to move State Property to Dame's Dame Dash Music Group, but the rest of them (except for members Oschino and Omillio Sparks) opted to stay on Roc-A-Fella instead.

Through Dame, Beanie declared State Property disbanded until further notice. In response, several members of the group began saying they never chose to be in the group and that they wouldn't have needed it to sell records. State Property eventually officially broke up, and a future group album is not planned.

However, recent mixtape tracks by members of State Property have featured other members of the group, suggesting that at least some of the members, or former members, including Sigel, are still on good terms.

Recently, the entire State Property were seen in New York together with the exception of Neef Buck, performing at a concert, saying "They're back like they never left".

"State Property" is also the name of a clothing line bearing their group insignia, run by Sigel as a subsidiary of Rocawear. Sigel starred in the 2002 independent film "State Property".
