Last month, Benny The Butcher made headlines when he appeared to continue to provoke the beef between himself and Freddie Gibbs by gifting Gibbs’ ex-girlfriend a Black Soprano Family chain.
A video emerged online of the Griselda rapper placing a BSF chain around the neck of Destini Fox who was with Gibbs when he was allegedly assaulted by associates of Benny.

In the clip, Benny carefully places the diamond chain around Fox’s neck before the two pose for pictures with Gibbs’ ex holding up the piece of jewelry for the cameras.
Benny and Gibbs, who previously collaborated together on two critically acclaimed singles, began beefing in 2021 after the “Crime Pays” rapper made a joke about the Butcher getting shot in the leg.

Not long afterwards, Gibbs was jumped while in Benny’s hometown of Buffalo before a show by a group alleged to be associates of the Butcher.
Benny recently squashed any idea that the two could reconcile.
“You don’t do that shit to people you cool with and that’s just it. I really don’t have no problem with him. He never done nothing to me in life. I have no problem with him. It’s just that I would be goofy. And the people I make my music for would look at me goofy if I would stand next to him.”
Gibbs has also made it clear that he has no intention of ending their beef.

“Just because I feel like I’m not on the level of that ghetto rap beef shit. I don’t care enough to solve a beef with a rapper. I don’t care enough. I don’t care about rappers enough. I don’t care about the rap game and what they think about me. I’ll let them care about that.”
