Author Topic: Does anyone know why Benzino is dissing 50 directly? (Read 532 times)

I know that 50 has dissed the source on a couple of tracks, but never Benzino directly(I think). Could this just be Benzino trying to grab more publicity for himself and the source? What do y'all think?

Attention is a good guess.

Well if someone dissed Shady Records who would you expect to be the 1st person to respond? Eminem.. of course.. Eminem represents Shady Records as Benzino represents The Source..

50 is the hottest thing out right now .. why not get some more attention?

1. Attention. 50 is probably going to do a Benzino-diss, and this will multiply his fans by several hundreds, and that's much for Benzino.

2. 50 Cent: Fuck The Source, I'm on the cover of Rolling Stone (ha ha ha)
When you diss his advertising channel & magazine, you diss Benzino in person.

3. Benzino is beefing with Eminem, and as 50 is down with Em, he said fuck it and studied a few Black Child & Cadillac Tah mixtapes, and made a diss based on the Murda Inc. tapes.

Good point, but when 50 said "fuck the source...rolling stone" it was more of a Ja Rule diss, cause Ja was on the cover of the source. Anyways, it'll be cool to hear 50 come out with a Benzino diss, and Zino is probably only doing the diss as a pathetic attempt for publicity
