If Benzino and Stevie J ever had any thoughts of mending their friendship, Zino sure shut that down after he posted an open letter to his Love And Hip-Hop: Atlanta co-star and his wife Joseline.
In the letter, Benzino pokes fun at Joseline's broken English and calls out the couple's rumored drug use. But since the former BFFs can't let bygones be bygones, Zino is looking to hash out his beef elsewhere.
In a newly-released interview with Vlad TV, the former co-owner of The Source addresses his past feuds including the most notorious beef with rapper Eminem.
In the clip, Benzino says his beef with Em was "blown out of proportion" and goes on to reveal that he'd love to one day have a conversation with him.
"The whole Eminem beef was blown out of proportion," Benzino said. "As far as I'm concerned people go at it all the time, but ours was just blown out of proportion. And I'm sure people can understand why. But that's behind me now. And I told him if I ever seen him I would love to get into a conversation with him, with Marshall. I would love to have some type of conversation. No matter what. What we went through is always gonna be history. Always. He's an incredible lyricist. There's no question about it."
During the interview, Benzino also makes not of his rift with former XXL magazine editor-in-chief, Elliot Wilson.
According to the New York Times, Wilson referred to Benzino as being "way outta your league" in a XXL magazine editorial written in response to a degrading cartoon The Source published of Wilson. Zino says he walked right over to the magazine's offices where Wilson apologized to him in front of the entire staff.
