Benzino claims that Boston Police wanted him to get killed by The LOX.
Benzino, one of the most controversial names in Hip-Hop, had feuds with the likes of Eminem, 50 Cent and more in the 2000s, now reveals that Police wanted him to get killed when he was beefing with The LOX. In 2000, Benzino and The LOX crew got into a clash during a Cash Money/Ruff Ryders tour stop in Boston.
Some Made Men were stabbed during the backstage scuffle. Fortunately for everyone, the battle did not result in any slow singing or flower bringing, and the two sides actually crushed their dispute not long after. That’s when Benzino learned Boston cops told The LOX they should’ve just finished the job.
The former Source publisher recently sat down with VladTv, where he recalled his altercation with The LOX and reveals that Boston Police told Jadakiss, Styles P, and Sheek Louch that they should’ve killed him.
“When we went to squash it, we all met at a restaurant and that’s when Kiss told me,” said Benzino. “I wasn’t surprised that they felt that way, but I was surprised that they would tell them that based on everything that happened.”
Benzino said that Boston Police Department had a problem with him as his father was rolling with the mob in the ’80s. Benzino and his associates have had several run-ins with the authorities over the years, including the stabbing of Boston Celtics hero Paul Pierce in 2000, domestic violence troubles with his ex, Althea, and, most recently, pleading guilty to some major drug charges.
“I was just dealing with a lot of different people and the police couldn’t necessarily get anything on me,” he continued. “I guess they figured after all these years they could finally get me, but that’s what it was. We was getting involved with a lot of sh*t. There was bodies poppin’ up and all kinds of sh*t in Boston and they was always tryin’ to knock us for sh*t, but necessarily couldn’t.”
