You know what I’m sayin! 

Raymond Scott, 58 is known as Benzino. He is a former rapper and reality television agitator who is best known for his feud with Eminem. He is the former co-owner of The Source Magazine, the self-acclaimed Bible of Hip-Hop. He is a pretty much a washed up entertainer who still wants to be “real” with the streets.

Benzino is a known hothead who blows up at everyone whenever he is called out for his immature behavior.

Since we’re talking about Eminem’s Music To Be Murdered By - Side B, we might as well talk about the guy who just won’t let this beef go. Back in 2002, Benzino launched a rap battle against Em in an attempt to generate sales for his album. He called Eminem, a “culture vulture,” “Elvis” and “not real hip-hop.” 

Em went into the studio and hit him hard. The Sauce and The Nail in the Coffin blew Benzino out the water. Since the disses, Benzino has failed in achieving hip-hop greatness. He’s been rapping since the early 1980s and no one still remembers him. He tried every version of hip-hop and never got much radio or television play.

He also tried to show the ladies he’s a buff. He posed naked for a D’Angelo style music video.

More on that later.

When we hear about him, he’s known as Ray Scott. The father, the American renter and the plaintiff in a courtroom. He made the news when he verbally and racially insulted a Brookhaven, Georgia police officer who was Asian American.

Scott’s behavior was caught on Real World Police’s YouTube page. The video went viral and it gave the world an impression of him.

He’s nothing more than a Karen. A Black guy screaming racism when he clearly knew he was in the wrong. Just like this incident we’re talking about now. He literally shouted “Black Lives Matter” at three officers to say he was being a victim of racial discrimination.

He verbally berated an apartment manager after he was told he was being evicted from his Atlanta condo.

According to HipHopDX, the rapper has skipped the rent since March. The apartment served him his eviction notice. He apparently went into the office twice that day and berated the manager and called her a cracka.

Scott said that the COVID-19 pandemic has made times hard for him to pay the rent and he felt that he deserved a break from paying because of it.

The Brookhaven Police responded to the complaint of an unruly person on the property and talked to him and the property manager.

The Black cop went hard on Scott. He approached the manager who was sobbing in her office. 

He said that she shouldn’t let it get to him. He said that he’s in desperation mode, he knows he is in an eviction process. The cop said he’s not a celebrity and it's not worth getting upset over.

Benzino makes a D'Angelo themed video in a desperate bid to win over fans.

The manager told the cop she didn’t know he was a celebrity. She said he was an unruly renter.

The incident happened in July.

Benzino responded to the video by saying that it’s “fake news.” He said that the video didn’t show what happened before the police came. He claims that the woman was being racist toward him and blamed Eminem supporters for leaking the video.

Benzino said he’s not evicted and he’s living well. He said that the people on the internet are weirdos and Eminem’s newest album is trash.

Now in September before the October eviction video release, Benzino made a music video called The Bigger PIcture. He posed naked oiled up. 

The video was roundly mocked because he’s a short rapper with no neck. The rapper stands at 5’3” in tennis shoes. He claims he’s 5’9’’ but if you look at the video with Bobby V, he stands about the same height as the R&B singer. Bobby V has a notorious history of being caught spending his rent money on transgender escorts.

I know times are rough and we’re all facing a crisis. Benzino is spending his money trying to stay relevant. He has money to make a music video butt naked. That COVID-19 relief money paid for the music video. So far it’s racked up only 82,000 views since its release.

A rapper named Sada Baby made a video called Whole Lotta Choppas around the same time Benzino made his video. It has 15 million views and sparked a TikTok challenge.

Sada Baby is another target who might face the wrath of Eminem.

Benzino also has an allegation of attacking a man and damaging his vehicle after he got upset that Althea Heart was dating him. He has a court date in Gwinnett County. The suspect is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
