Former co-owner of The Source magazine Benzino has recently decided to reignite his feud with Eminem by using the rapper’s restaurant Mom’s Spaghetti as a location for his new music video. This new track is a diss track directed towards the ‘Stan’ lyricist.
On March 20th, Benzino shared his visit to the Detroit restaurant with fans via Instagram. The footage and photos were indirectly aimed at Eminem and were highly disrespectful.
One short video shows Benzino standing in front of the 8-Mile-inspired restaurant, holding up his middle finger, highlighting that his upcoming music video ‘Rap Elvis’ will be filmed at the food establishment.
Furthermore, one of the videos hears the Benzino-made diss track ‘Vulturius’ playing, which hears the emcee rap, “Candy-ass Eminem, bitch-ass feminine / Mad he lack melanin, all Valium’d up again / Awe sh*t, here we go, Benzino vs. Jim Crow / Know a crusty when I see one, how many times you overdose?”
The videos were captioned, “Mark this date. #Rapelvis Video soon come……oh the [spaghetti emoji] was horrible.” There were other clips as well. One video saw Benzino acting as if he was stealing the restaurant’s sign, while another saw him take a bite of food before quickly throwing it on the ground in disgust.
Earlier this week, during an episode of the This Life Of Mine podcast, Dr Dre labelled Eminem as one of the best rappers ever, stating, “I think he’s [Eminem] the best MC ever. Point blank, period. Of course, there are gonna be arguments with that because he’s a white guy…I don’t think anyone that’s rapping can touch Eminem on that microphone.”
However, Benzino recently responded on social media, writing, “You know I think Dr Dre is one of the greatest producers of all time, and notice I didn’t say Hip Hop producers, but this is an insult to [Ice] Cube, [MC] REN, Snoop [Dogg], [The] Doc and every other rapper who wrote all those hits.”
