Royce Da 5’9 and former Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta personality Benzino have been locked in a war of words since Tuesday (December 29) — and after a brief respite, it appears the battle is back on.
Benzino resumed their beef on Friday (January 1) when he — once again — insisted Nickle Nine is too ashamed of his Grammy Award-nominated discography to face him in a Verzuz battle.
“@royceda59 is backpack nerd rapper who gets no spins in no club in Detroit,” he wrote on Instagram. “He makes lyrical goofball songs that no hood has ever banged. He’s scared to do a #Versuz against me because his garbage catalogue will be exposed. Name one hit record this nerd got??
“No fly chicks never heard of him. Only goofy Stans know his music and they don’t count. Y’all the subculture. I got hood bangers, produced platinum artists and radio hits. Now are you take the challenge or keep running like a hoecake Nickel?”
Benzino then shared a Simpsons-themed meme that suggested Royce’s legacy is entangled with his staunch support of his Bad Meets Evil collaborator Eminem. He captioned the post, “Look at how they see u @royceda59 this is your legacy?”
But Royce put his laser-sharp pen game to work on Saturday (January 2) shortly after Benzino tweeted, “@royceda59 did you make your massa breakfast this morning slave boy?” Not only did the Motor City native point out how few likes the post received, he also suggested Benzino’s daughter Coi Leray has daddy issues.
“I’m gon take your daughter to the park and let her ride the swings if you don’t quit spending your whole day being a Twitter goon,” he commented under Benzino’s since-deleted tweet. “She pussy popping on a handstand on IG. Now go hug her and tell her she’s beautiful before Drake or Trey Songz does.”
Royce was evidently proud of his handiwork. On Saturday night, he screenshot the exchange and posted it on his Instagram page with the caption, “Walks away blowing the barrel of a smoking Gun.” To add a little flavor to the post, he used Trey Songz’s 2009 single “Say Aah” for background music.
Benzino has been obsessively accusing Royce of pandering to Eminem for months and frequently sets his sights on Slim Shady. Last November, he blasted the diamond-selling MC and his fans in a series of Twitter posts, writing, “Face it stans y’all will always be hip hop goofiest most out of touch fan base straight bozos.”
He later added, “all Stans are ugly awkward pussies that aren’t accepted in the real black culture because of how goofy and out of touch they are in the streets. Kkkkrakkkrrrs have nobody else to talk about, they wanna feel like they are part of something. they look stupid asf.”
For whatever reason, it doesn’t appear Benzino’s vitriol toward Eminem — or Royce, for that matter— is subsiding anytime soon.
Nail in the Coffin. And it pains me to put slander another brother in any kind of way but Benzino always sucks donkey dick. His entire career is based off of a street beef with DMX and abusing his power at a now dinosaur magazine publisher where Eminem defended himself.
Em sucks balls too since 2004 but that run from 96-2004 was nothing short of phenomenal. The man did more for rap culture than Benzino ever could. As much as Eminem sucks now you can’t take away his impact and the fact that he paved the way for arguably a bigger legend in 50 Cent.
Penzinous is just a hater.
I think you don’t know the definition of the word “slander.” LOL. Maybe look that up before you use it again. Other than that, I couldn’t agree more.
In a comment section and you want him to know the definition of slander correct? In a verb it says, “make false and damaging statements about someone” Hmmmm! I think Jimmy Tree-Times is correct. Hahahahahaha…
You reaching. He used it correctly. Just had a typo with the word “put”.
Arguably a bigger rapper…n that’s 50 ? Oh man…your post is the biggest pile of garbage I’ve ever seen
Benzino is a hack mf got no sack he is a little bitch boy that loves attention he gonna he gonna get dealt with if his old ass don’t shut his dick sucking mouth!
Benzino is the definition of a culture vulture, look at what he did with the source. Gave himself 5 stars…
You get mics in the source not stars
Oh shit I guess that that changes everything now…….
LMFAO @ Benzino, as much as an annoying butthurt troll he still is, he knows how to take funny ass shots
Royce got songs with conway and Benny is that hood enough for you? I swear I see a story on here benzino got only fans? Wtf?
“Before Drake or Trey Songz does “
Killllllled him with that one
For a 5 foot midget, this little guy has a lot of moxy lol. Hard not to remember all the L’s he’s taken over the years tho. I seen this dude dressing like someone in there 20’s too and dying his hair at age 60. Hard to talk about culture vultures and goofballs when you’re a poser in your golden years smfh
Yeah you tell em anonymous guy on the internet! I’m sure you’ve accomplished way more than he has!
I’ve accomplished plenty for my age and stayed humble all the while. I’m no Em fan by an means, I also think Royce looks like a clown defending Em every time somebody disses him. But Benzino been a bitter hater from day 1 because Em more successful than him, he’s a pathetic little manlet with small man syndrome.
I take dumps that are bigger than this peanut head mf lmao
Royce always first to defend massah lol…why em cant just talk for himself? Its pathetic…benzino is consistent and I like that, fck em
Pretty sure Benzino can talk for himself, too. Yet here you are, defending him like a bitch. You’re right about one thing, he is consistent. He’s been failing consistently his whole life.
I see Benzin-hoe running his mouth again, that’s about all he can do. This fool is so short he’ll need a ladder to reach manhood smfh
Fucked me up real on this one bro
Savage.
Donzino forgets his corny @$$ leaked his own lil grey d*ck pics
You fools can say em and royce will kill benzino on music but and person benzino is a real goon and will have them 2 dudes shit thier pants if thier security ain’t around
Really? His lil 5’3 140 pound ass will get beat black and blue by Royce or Em lmao wtf you mean? I don’t care how buff he thinks he is he’s a fuckin angry little
Midget bitch. And by the way, nobody anywhere has ever bumped benzino or knows why he’s even famous except for getting slaughtered by em. He’s broke and leaks his own dick pics for fame
If by “real goon” you mean dwarf, then yes he is
Did Royce da 5´9 just imply Drake and Trey Songz are IG’ing underage girls?
JEALOUSY IS A HELL OF A DRUG..BENZINO KNOWS FULL WELL HE CANT MATCH LYRICS WITH NEITHER..BUT THIS DOES KEEP HIS NAME OUT THERE….HMMMMM
Benzino is making D’Angelo-style nekkid ass videos and at the same time Swagger-jacking Drake. And it’s 2021
Much as I dislike Eminem’s bitch and former hypeman, that daughter comment? BODYBAG … #LOLIfYouGottaDaughter
