    Default Benzino-Benzino Project dropped twenty years ago today.

    Benzino sucks as a rapper, but the production and features really propped up this album.. I bumped this all the way up until Infamous Mobb's Special Edition dropped in Spring of next year

    I would not have even checked the tracklist unless I saw your post...and I would have missed that there is a Rae feature. Thanks!

    Think I was watching this beef thing on Youtube. And they went in on how his connections got him all these features and producers. Most certainly not on the strength of the quality, but his Source connections. This also factored in when Made Men or Benzino was covered in said mag. I remember some of it, but never paid attention to it. Since I did not know him untill he started dissing Em. Which was the start & end.

    ^fuck benzino. Guy was responsible for the end of any credibility the source had at that point. It wasn't much, but he made sure he buried the most iconic hip hop magazine in history.

    Yeah, all the crap he did to benefit himself and his associates really turned people off. Lil' Kim getting five mics for Naked Truth was the final breaking point for most die hard Source readers

    How did this guy end up with enough figures to purchase ownership in The source? He wasn't a well know rapper nationwide.

    Agree. I wonder what he up to nowadays. Proably playing hole in the wall gigs, trying to say he bodied Em in the good old days.

    To Bdolo question Benzinos father was a mademan in the Italian Mob in Massachusetts, and he had plenty of property and was also tied in the construction business. Also Benzino extorted Dave Mays as well, a few times cats wanted to put hands on Dave for some things in the source, and Benzino was his muscle.
