Dope.

Of course, hip hop is Neverland tho, so he will be clowned and vilified for doing something mature like this, lol. Whether it's sincere or not is opinion-based, who cares? What's dope is he said it and released it. But yeah, he'll be clowned and ultimately he'll make a hate-filled video in response to all the negative feedback, you gotta love it, smh.
The problem is he keeps flip flopping. If he had this energy when he was just a dinosaurs and not a fossil him and Em prolly would've headed this shyt 10 years ago.

even though this beef has been going on for over 20 years, the truth is that Eminem actually started it. I'm not a fan of either guy and I've bought albums of both guys before, but Eminem started all of this shyt just because he didn't get 5 mics for the Marshall Mathers Lp. After that, he squashed his beef with that bytchazz Elliot Wilson at XXL(who was beefing with his former employees at the Source) and Interscope formed an alliance with XXL. History has a strange way of rewriting itself and a lie is still a lie, I don't care how many times it's told.

Benzino himself disagrees.


The founder of The Source magazine, an entity that makes/breaks careers in rap decided to shoot at Eminem...why?

Fair enough, but by his own admission THAT'S where it started.

I don't know why Benzino would say that. He must have been high as hell. hahah The timeline(with proof), can be proven. I want to correct one thing I said,. Eminem was mad and dissed the Source after not getting 5 mics for Marshall Mathers LP, that's wrong it was the Eminem Show . That's when he was dissing the source in interviews. The song you posted from the mixtapes came AFTER Em's interviews in late 2002, Eminem Show was released early 2002. benzino drops this song in late 2002 Then in early 2003, Benzino dropped the mixtape that this song was on and other disses..

Rappers be fuking up dates all the time and don't even remember how they got into shyt. A good example of that is Mase in an interview with Wallo and Gillie stating how his beef with Jay started. Mase said that him, Busta and Jay Z first albums all dropped the same day. That's simply not true. Busta dropped early 96, Jay dropped summer of 96 and Mase dropped fall of 97 a whole year later!!! I wouldn't forget that because I was in the Military and my boy bought Mase's tape(not a cd) from the PX. I can go into more detail because my mans bought Mase tape and XXL had just came out with their first issue that had Jay Z on the cover because his album was dropping soon too. I saw a dude reading it at the CQ desk and had never heard of XXL before seeing that first issue. So I don't know why Benzino said that when you can easily google the dates of this stuff if they don't remember it or weren't alive. Dude is basically dissing himself because he doesn't remember. Drugs are bad..

Dave Mays reiterating what Benzino said, he drunk and on drugs too? The two people closest to the situation besides Em himself say Benzino started it.

He also admitted he pledged to block any 5 mic reviews for Em before anything was said about it on wax by in that same math Hoffa interview and others.

I don’t think they’d have any problem laying the blame on Em if it were true.

That interview helps with what I said too. 8 mile was released late 2002.Eminem gets mad he doesn't get 5 mics and disses the source in early 2002, benzino disses him in late 2002 on that song, mixtape drops early 2003. If you have a different timeline from what is already documented, please show me. Now, if you want to say that Benzino had the first diss song, that is true. You will get no argument from me because he did indeed have the first diss song in the fall of 2002, but this came AFTER Eminem dissed them for not getting 5 mics for Eminem show. So yes Benzino had the first song, but Eminem threw the first shots in interviews about him not getting 5 mics because he is white.

Not saying you're wrong or disagreeing here, but when/where did Em dis The Source first? I remember him expressing some frustration and feeling like they were underrating him with the 4 for MMLP. And earlier you mentioned Ems fans going on with that bullshyt about him getting a 2 for it, which never did happen for an Em solo. Then he said on Eminem Show "5 mics in The Source? Ain't holding my fukkin breath" but I didn't take that as a dis. Maybe I'm just not interpreting it that way. I may have missed or forgotten other disses, I don't know. But I don't remember Em outright dissing The Source until Benzino started talking.

I have to dig for it, but it was an interview. He claimed he was being shorted on mics because he's white or some shyt and was mad at not getting 5 mics for Eminem show. THEN benzino released the diss track later that year. So yes, Benzino did have the first diss track(I never denied that), but Eminem started dissing the source in interviews first due to not getting 5 mics. .

Cool, thanks :salute:
It's been a long ass time since I had my magazine collection so I can't go back to reference who said what and when. I only remembered out of nowhere in late 02 that suddenly Em and The Source had some beef which struck me as weird considering the XXL beef. I remembered Em being frustrated, but not that he'd been dissing like that. As far as songs though, yeah Zino had the first one. Two even, if I remember right, only that first one was a little slap during a radio freestyle.
It's crazy this shyts been going on for 20 years though :laugh:

Again..why would Ray or Dave Mays both say they threw the first blow without at least saying uhhh well it was in response to him dissing the source!

He couldn't have been asking for 5 mics for TES, just saying he didn't expect to get it. And if what he said was so disrespectful, why give him the May cover, a spread that talked a hell of a lot about the movie and Benzino trying to link with him in Puerto Rico and getting played to the left. The interview denial is what prompted the diss.

He had a working relationship with the Mag UNTIL Ray made it a personal mission to take some shine off of Em as a rapper that he felt he deserved. Had he been professional, that working relationship would have been in tact and The Source wouldn’t have went the way it did.

He was still working with the Mag UNTIL Ray made it a personal mission to take some shine off Em as a rapper that he felt he deserved. Had he been professional, Em's would have kept a working relationship with the mag.
You’ve got to ask them that. All i can do is give you the sequence of events as they happened with the years and time it happened. Whatever you do with the information I give you is your choice lol. I never said he “asked” for 5 mics. No one has ever done that. I said he was sending shots for not receiving it. I’m trying to type this shyt as plain as possible with dates that you can google for yourself, but instead you’re arguing with me about shyt that actually happened. WHY????

They’ve been asked, they both said Benzino started it and why. Instead of leaving it there, we are to assume they’re drunk, senile or just mistaken and you know the real truth.

I know the timeline family.

No one has ever “asked” for 5 mics but The Source themselves had to address issues of bias and even adjusted ratings on the strength of people pointing it out aside from the Eminem issue.

Him saying he wasn’t going to hold his breath for a 5 after Dr. Dre himself didn’t get one for The Chronic is not where the issue started.

Benzino got denied access to him in Puerto Rico and that’s when it became some other shyt.
