A former The Source executive and a former reality-TV personality has one descriptive title that he keeps carrying around. He is a person who got defeated in a war he started against Eminem.
It has been 20 years since Benzino started his crusade with giving a two-mics review to Em’s universally loved and critically acclaimed “The Marshall Mathers LP” in the magazine he was co-owning and co-editing. He used the same platform later to appear on a photo with a severed Marshall’s head in hands. Eminem used the weapon he yields the best and parried with his pen, dropping disses and destroying Benzino’s reputation.
Or you can argue that Benzino destroyed himself because he was blinded by hate and lost touch with reality.
And it is not like he has found his peace since. From time to time he feels bile coming up his throat and releases bitter venom to whatever outlet is available for him. Recently it is his personal Twitter account.
Just the other day he decided to take a jab at Eminem fans and posted:
Face it stans y’all will always be hip hop goofiest most out of touch fan base straight bozos
Face it stans y’all will always be hip hop goofiest most out of touch fan base 🤣 straight bozos

Well, that was uncalled for. But it also called for a reaction from fans. However, before they even knew that they had to react Benzino let out a bad blood spree all over his timeline moving fast from attacking the fans to snarling at Eminem. He added:
All Stans are ugly awkward pussies that aren’t accepted in the real black culture because of how goofy and out of touch they are in the streets.
And then:
All they do is worship a corny tailed park trash kkkrakkker who puts words together and knows nothing about our culture. He rhymes masturbator with elevator and all the corny white people go crazy, they goofy ass. He dresses in drag, let’s men out their bare asses in his face.
Benzino also tried to personally denigrate some of the prominent stans, being especially vile towards a YouTube reviewer NoLifeShaq whom he called Eminem’s “slave”.
It was over in a couple of hours. Unable to cope, Benzino deleted all of his tweets except for the initial one, that still proudly bears 36 likes at the time of this publication. The Internet though keeps the receipts, as always.
