Zino was asked about “Rap Elvis”: “I’m just hungry. Last time we were beefing I was multi-millionaire. When I say beef, it’s a rap beef. It really isn’t real street beef. Back then, I was more emotional and took things personal. Now it’s not like that… I don’t go in the studio by myself. I’ve done that but for this I got to bring my ni–as with me and motivation and bounce s–t of each other, why not? Because, number one, I’ve always been in groups and I’ve always been in studio sessions where it was gang of ni–as. So, when it’s time to write a verse there’s always somebody there to get in line. That’s what’s dope about hip-hop. That does not mean…Yah, sometimes I can go in there and write but where I’m at in my life right now, I still love hip-hop and I’m hungry. And the Eminem thing was just an opportunity to show the world that ‘look man, I’ve been doing this for a long time.’ I think my skills and my music is overlooked because of Eminem and his crazy a– fiends.”
