Coi Leray has announced that she has cut ties with her father Benzino after he made a number of comments about R. Kelly‘s conviction for sex trafficking.
While far from the first time the father and daughter have fallen out publicly, Leray has made it clear that she no longer wants anything to with Benzino.
She wrote on X (formerly Twitter) on Wednesday (May 1): “I want everybody to know I want nothing to do with anything my father has going on. I haven’t spoken to him in over a year and I don’t condone or respect any of them interviews he got going on.
“I don’t respect his decisions and I really want nothing to do with him please dont even think of me when you see him. Sharing the same DNA and blood DOESN’T make us FAMILY. Loyalty, boundaries, respect, teaching, guidance, love, patience, encouragement MAKES US FAMILY.
“Keep me away from people who try to ‘get their lick back’ please. And thank you.”
She concluded: “I can’t wait to have a kid one day. I can’t wait to look her/him in the eye and tell them how much I love them.”

Appearing on the We In Miami podcast last week, Benzino criticized the idea that R. Kelly will likely spend the rest of his life in prison for a litany of sex crimes, some relating to children.
“Everybody deserves a second chance,” he said when asked about the disgraced singer. “The legal age is 16 years old, so does that make it right if a n-gga does it — yes or no?
“Why the fuck is R. Kelly doing all this time? Because they’re 14 and 13 — two years younger — but you don’t think that the people who cleared it for 16 years old didn’t know that they’re fucking with 13s and 14s, too?
“Even to make [an] age that young to be the law, you already know they’re going under that. I’m not condoning n-ggas fucking with little girls — it’s sick, alright, it’s sick, it’s sick — but I don’t think R. Kelly should rot in jail for 30 years either.”
The 58-year-old added: “What about R. Kelly getting molested when he was a kid? They didn’t take [that into] consideration. They exploited him and made up all these documentaries that all these people made money off of.
“Them parents of them girls knew what they were dealing with with R. Kelly — a lot of people knew that shit, y’know what I’m saying? But R. Kelly wasn’t educated, man. When does that come in play?”
Benzino, whose social media pages appear to have been taken down, has yet to respond to Coi Leray’s posts.
She isn’t wrong. If R Kelly did all that then he absolutely deserves to rot in prison and much worse. Benzino has always been an embarrassment only this time he doesn’t have a magazine that he can extort into taking his side.
You’ve completely failed in life when your own kids don’t respect you
False as hell. This ho shaking her ass. Tf… she’s a spoiled brat. We wouldn’t know who she was if it wasn’t for her father ., it’s not like she was so under privileged and came from no where.
Her dad is a known chump and she knows it too.. good for her. I’m not sure what her shaking her ass has to with him defending R Kelly, but whatever helps u sleep
Gay Lemonzino better be happy he has a good kid with some common sense bc thats all his bumass has.
Her dad is immature and does stupid things and she clearly was cutting ties with him years before this. Though I have to say it’s really stupid. If I cut ties every time my dad or family did or said something to me that made me upset I’ll be alone. She’s immature probably like her dad. They need to grow up
Good on her. I would draw the line if my dad were an abusive pedophile too. That shit is unfortunately just not the kind of thing that you deserve a 2nd chance from. He does in fact deserve to rot in jail for the rest of his life after gourging on his perversions with no respect for the victims for most of his life.
Coi is a plant spoiled ugly brat with no sexy features and Benzinonis a bum ass
Most of ya’ll act retarded or spaced out on drugs like her. Her music is garbage. The Industry only signed her because of Benzino. Most of these rappers career wouldn’t have taken off like it did was because of the Source. There are way more rich and famous people who did what R. Kelly did but haven’t gotten caught. Then you got women sicking their daughters on the man. They need to get locked up. She ignorant for always posting things in the media about him. But when he respond to her she wanna play victim. She chasing him for clout. Do your little wack shows and pretend you a Barbie.
F*** dis b****. She sayin dis sh** fa clout!
