First 7 minutes Benzino keeping it positive about black community , the title says "I used to sell weed, crack ...." Vlad you a culture vulture for real and it shows everyday more and more .
I'M ETHAN BRADBERRY Idc about advertising , it's Vlads job too care about his company . Can you not see the irony of Benzino saying the press needs to push more positivity in their material and the title being about "Crack" . It's nothing more to speak on
"By the time I hit 13, 14 a was selling crack weed and heroin" Benzino was born in '65, so, 13, 14, we talkin' '78, '79. Crack didn't hit the street on the eastcoast before '84 !!
Heroin was definitly strong in the '70's and weed been around forever so that part can be true. But to lie a bout the other is o so corny and the fact that the guy asking the question don't check him, even cornier.
nah Zino is the real deal and his mob is thick. I said the same thing but the LOX vouched for him and NOBODYS calling them out. He was still only 20 in 85, slanging crack makes sense at that age
Benzino: Yea these blogs have to do better in how they portray black lives, if black lives matter then we have to make sure the blogs aren't always reporting the negative Vlad: Yea................ So when you were younger you sold crack? 😑😑😑
+King James black women the most educated group in America right now and they're still portrayed as ghetto and shit. The media fucks with people no matter what they do.
So, I didn't know crack was out in 1979. He said when he was 13, he was selling crack. I remember crack coming out in the mid eighties. Something doesn't sound right!
he is right..We do need more positive media coverage but that won't pull traffic..We as African Americans need to report on the good stuff we do because there are way more postive things in our community than negative.
"I used to sell crack" how many interviews do we need to see where a rapper tells that generic story about their life... Vlad sitting on some decent interviews on interesting topics but still churning out these generic questions and answers...
I thought this was gonna be a weak interview when I read the title but this was a really decent piece. I realized he tryna keep it positive but Vlad just digging for that negativity.
Boston is a small city. Roxbury , mattapan , Dorchester and South Boston has been ganged up for ever. Irish , italians , black , cape verdian & Chinese.
For real.he was sayin lot valid shit with the psych of dudes that go thru sum traumatic&grimey shit being involved in certain lifestyle.he put that shit in perspective&broke down.real shit to me.I don't see why all dislikes
Here’s the thing, the police chief in Dallas who is black begged people who are black to apply. As someone who went into law enforcement they offer higher salaries to people who are black to try and get people from those communities to apply. Also the most extensive background checks in the US are to go into law enforcement. But if for whatever reason people from minority communities don’t apply, you can’t match officers racial to the communities they police.
Everybody talking about how Eminem did Zino, but em never clapped back at the rappers that dissed him that were real credible threats . He only dissed pop singers and rappers he knew that he wouldn't have to see.
Walrus Life Deathrow rappers. He was afraid to come at them. Em claimed he was the "white tupac" once on a song and I thought he would ride out on these deathrow dudes who dissed him on record especially since one of the deathrow dudes that dissed him was trying to like Tupac one of the very things he accused JaRule of doing right? And I know he heard the song . Back then Deathrow though trending down was still very known .
vlad is a master interviewer. Zino - Vlad I'm not really here to talk about that situation.. Vlad - So how can you an althea ultimately work it out. Than the next 5 minutes of the interview is about there relationship lol
Benzino did not have a baby. His baby momma had a baby. Benzino fathered a baby. The person who "has" a baby goes through hours of agonizing labor before painfully pushing the sweet bundle of life out, or has to go through a C Section resulting in a recovery period. This is a pet peeve of mine. As Robin Williams said "Unless you're passing a bowling ball you are not experiencing it with her. Unless someone shoves an umbrella up your ass and opens it, you are not experiencing it with her."
I know it's just the angle at which he's sitting, but I can't help feeling his left arm is a lil green screened out or something. It looks tiny compared to the right.
go watch the podcast with the Lox talking to eliot wilson about the time they got into a fight with benzino and his people. The cops told d-block that they should have killed Ray benzino in that fight. When somebody really lived that life and makes it out like he did you gotta love that. Regardless if I disagree with the whole eminem bullshit that zino pulled I still fuck with zino cause hes a real one and he made it out. Salute OG tripple OG
LOL! Vladimir asked this man one thing and then he's just gon go off into a whole different tangent. Anyway, thank you for that _The Source_ issue you did on Eminem back in 2004. I still have it and the lil' cd it came with just for a *reminder*.
Damn Vlad....the man just said he doesn't wanna speak on his situation with his wife. And he keeps bringing up more questions smdh. And he wants to bring the man's child up in the interview. Vlad have so fucking respect when it comes to people's personal life.....fuck!!!
Vlad, next time you interview Ray Benzine, ask him what is up with Hangmen 3's No Skits Volume Two, Made Men's Black Friday, Wise Guys' unreleased album and Mister Gzus' album.
First 7 minutes Benzino keeping it positive about black community , the title says "I used to sell weed, crack ...." Vlad you a culture vulture for real and it shows everyday more and more .
Facts
and after the 7 minutes?
vlad dont care this nigga funny asf lol
You stupid? He`just always puts in the title the thing that stood out the most. You petty man. You know 1 thing about advertising?
I'M ETHAN BRADBERRY Idc about advertising , it's Vlads job too care about his company . Can you not see the irony of Benzino saying the press needs to push more positivity in their material and the title being about "Crack" . It's nothing more to speak on
Lmaoooo Benzino went in for 5mins on positivity & Vlad responded with "Sure. Now before you were in TV & media you were in the streets....."
"By the time I hit 13, 14 a was selling crack weed and heroin"
Benzino was born in '65, so, 13, 14, we talkin' '78, '79.
Crack didn't hit the street on the eastcoast before '84 !!
damn word
simple math lol
Heroin was definitly strong in the '70's and weed been around forever so that part can be true.
But to lie a bout the other is o so corny and the fact that the guy asking the question don't check him, even cornier.
freebase in the 70s
nah Zino is the real deal and his mob is thick. I said the same thing but the LOX vouched for him and NOBODYS calling them out. He was still only 20 in 85, slanging crack makes sense at that age
Benzino: Yea these blogs have to do better in how they portray black lives, if black lives matter then we have to make sure the blogs aren't always reporting the negative
Vlad: Yea................ So when you were younger you sold crack?
😑😑😑
Well
vlad don't give af bout none of dat positive ..he just want the controversy
+King James what?
+King James black women the most educated group in America right now and they're still portrayed as ghetto and shit. The media fucks with people no matter what they do.
Could you link a study? I would like to read it.
Tel us about the time your neck disappeared and never came back.
😂😂
How the neck disappear if he ain't had one in the first place?
+Fazal Gaming once upon a time he was a child with a neck
CeroTheBot The disses from Shady caused him to lose his neck.
+Danny Glover lmfaoo
It's funny watching this after listening to Eminem's "Nail in the Coffin."
Eminem is a bitch
"Too many of our legends are dying" Please god tell me Vlad did not just refer to Benzino as a legend.
Vlad do have a point. Biz Markie, Shock G, DMX....dudes dropping like damn flies in 2021
The most important thing I heard,was I stay in the gym... Thanks for the motivation!! Gotta get working...
So, I didn't know crack was out in 1979. He said when he was 13, he was selling crack. I remember crack coming out in the mid eighties. Something doesn't sound right!
Vlad " So how u and Althea
Benzino " I don't wanna talk about Althea "
Vlad " ok kool so what's up with you and Althea" lmaooo
I bet his favorite shampoo is Head & Shoulders.
the opposite of dude with the big-ass neck lol
😄😄🤣😂😂😅🤣🤣🤣🤣
I'm glad to hear Benzino's doing well in his life😊
Honestly I clicked and went straight to the comments.... I knew this nigga was bout to be roasted like some Pistachios
"I see you had a baby recently"
"Yeah"
"Ok"
lmao not even a congratulations, just straight onto the drama
The brother did give us Source magazine. I appreciate his contribution to Hip Hop
It wasn't Benzino who created The Source, it was Dave Mays!
Benzino did not give us the source, dave mays did
he is right..We do need more positive media coverage but that won't pull traffic..We as African Americans need to report on the good stuff we do because there are way more postive things in our community than negative.
"I used to sell crack" how many interviews do we need to see where a rapper tells that generic story about their life...
Vlad sitting on some decent interviews on interesting topics but still churning out these generic questions and answers...
Benzino been irrelevant since Shady destroyed him.
He been irrelevant since he destroyed The Source.
+Uncle Victor youre name.. youre pic. my nigga
The mean streets of boston
I thought this was gonna be a weak interview when I read the title but this was a really decent piece. I realized he tryna keep it positive but Vlad just digging for that negativity.
Boston is a small city. Roxbury , mattapan , Dorchester and South Boston has been ganged up for ever. Irish , italians , black , cape verdian & Chinese.
Somethin just off with his head-to-body ratio... Where's son neck?
what do u think it is?
Bad genetics... Maybe a bad chromosome or somethin' - - hard to tell. But all the time in world spent in the gym ain't gon fix it
+Flush75 Looks like incest or parents didn't have that test you can take when the baby is new new, to show if your child will have deformities.
+juliagulia incest is a likely cause... whatever it is - his head looks usually wide, unbalanced on that roid-bloated body of his
+King James LMAO > "neck extension surgery" -- he could use a couple of those brass rings around his neck like those long-neck African/Asian women
BENZINO IS A COOL OLD G VIVA ITS CAPONE FROM BOSTON MASSACHUSETTS
the comment section is hilarious but I still don't realize why this video got so many dislikes
Eminem Stans...
really D12 roasted this nigga
+Dee Eff you deff a benzino Stan lmao I didn't even think that would be possible since the nigga doesn't even rap
For real.he was sayin lot valid shit with the psych of dudes that go thru sum traumatic&grimey shit being involved in certain lifestyle.he put that shit in perspective&broke down.real shit to me.I don't see why all dislikes
Cuz hes wack. End of story
I bought that same tank top from Wal-Mart
how many times he gonna say "you know" and "know I'm saying"
i know right... i hate having convos with ppl that say that shit so much. you no what im saying lol
😂😂😂
Watch the interview with his father, you'd see where he got it from.
Benzino: *goes on 10 minute rant about black lives matter
Vlad:......sure
lol
Say what you want about Zino but he made it out of here(Boston) and that's hard to do especially when your a street dude. Dorchester stand up
He had source magazine. Before the internet he was bagging . Rap was huge in the mid 90's and the source was the bible
Here’s the thing, the police chief in Dallas who is black begged people who are black to apply. As someone who went into law enforcement they offer higher salaries to people who are black to try and get people from those communities to apply. Also the most extensive background checks in the US are to go into law enforcement. But if for whatever reason people from minority communities don’t apply, you can’t match officers racial to the communities they police.
is the source magazine still around damn remembering that magazine makes me feel old
Wooow. He was selling crack, weed, AND heroin. This is such captivating material.
Benzino: Vlad I'd rather not talk about it.
Vlad: *Talks about it*.
Got his career ended by Eminem and failed trying to kill Paul Pierce.
i can never look at this dude without thinking of eminem
He's got that Quagmire jaw line... giggity
aye he was saying sum real shit what's up with all the dislikes...
The best point he made was “if I’m on the corner (breaking the law) what can I expect?”
this dude looks like a Brazilian MMA fighter fr
he been fighting in the streets for decades so it makes sense.
Anybody saying Zino wasnt in the streets really aint in the streets or know whats going on...anybody in the bean know what it is
yessssir !!!!
FideTheProducer He may have been on the Streets but he's a wack emcee. #fact
FideTheProducer you know what part he's from?
KiLLahD48 Dorchester I think
SvpremeBeing0 four corners
7:00, thats when i started shaking my head, i knew he was gonna start his fed shit
vlad's TH-cam comments are HILARIOUS
Can someone tell me what Benzino has done in the rap game? I read his wiki and i still dont see what he has done thats significant
He extorted dave mays for half of the source magazine well after it was already successful
Everybody talking about how Eminem did Zino, but em never clapped back at the rappers that dissed him that were real credible threats . He only dissed pop singers and rappers he knew that he wouldn't have to see.
Like who? I knew dude from Screwball dissed Eminem, I figured Em never responded because Screwball wasn't very known.
Walrus Life Deathrow rappers. He was afraid to come at them. Em claimed he was the "white tupac" once on a song and I thought he would ride out on these deathrow dudes who dissed him on record especially since one of the deathrow dudes that dissed him was trying to like Tupac one of the very things he accused JaRule of doing right? And I know he heard the song . Back then Deathrow though trending down was still very known .
vlad is a master interviewer. Zino - Vlad I'm not really here to talk about that situation.. Vlad - So how can you an althea ultimately work it out. Than the next 5 minutes of the interview is about there relationship lol
"you from Boston.... the mean streets of Boston"..😂😂😂😂
you been there then sit down clown.smh
you need to edit the video description it's not "post pardon" it's "postpartum"
You know Vlad don't care about you when he throw your whole interview up at once lol
😂
Shout out to Benzino & the Almighty RSO. Heard them dudes were official in the Bean.
they were pretty much the only real gangster rap group from the east coast and the first. Made NWA look like cream puff actors.
Great interview
Eminem stans are tearing the dislike button up. Smh
A sweet light bulb came on as Im watching Benzino. Big ups to that guy and peace and blessings from most high.
So he just said he didn't want to talk about his baby momma drama and Vlad kept asking questions!! 😒🤔🙄
Nigga sold his neck too
The Brotha said He Don't Wanna Talk About It
Can't be the only one wondering where his necks gone
this man is on the juice i can tell
this the man Eminem bodied. never saw him on a shirt.
it's sad that. one day his son has to hear..I don't wanna be like this I don't wanna hurt no feelings
Benzino did not have a baby. His baby momma had a baby. Benzino fathered a baby. The person who "has" a baby goes through hours of agonizing labor before painfully pushing the sweet bundle of life out, or has to go through a C Section resulting in a recovery period. This is a pet peeve of mine. As Robin Williams said "Unless you're passing a bowling ball you are not experiencing it with her. Unless someone shoves an umbrella up your ass and opens it, you are not experiencing it with her."
I see the hate is real. You Eminem Stans are ridiculous. Em ain't end nobody's career.
Vlad ask him why he cheated em out dem mics in DA source and how Eminem murdered his rap career!!!😂😂😂💯💪
Benzino one of the few real ones in hip hop real reck real.......
I know it's just the angle at which he's sitting, but I can't help feeling his left arm is a lil green screened out or something. It looks tiny compared to the right.
*This mummy looks like he's in shape.*
*Good for him.*
Referring to himself in the third person smh why do people do that
I would never claim to be no Ray Benzino...
em my favorite rapper as a kid but I Fuck with zino. he a real dude and he spit facts
I remember when Eminem said he looks like a peeled banana
Eminem is a Bitch
When it comes to BLM, he is right! He makes sense
This is a positive interview. Title is misleading. Vlad seemed the one who mostly wanted to go into the violence of his childhood.
go watch the podcast with the Lox talking to eliot wilson about the time they got into a fight with benzino and his people. The cops told d-block that they should have killed Ray benzino in that fight. When somebody really lived that life and makes it out like he did you gotta love that. Regardless if I disagree with the whole eminem bullshit that zino pulled I still fuck with zino cause hes a real one and he made it out. Salute OG tripple OG
He said he didnt want to talk about his new baby and baby mama drama but 3 minutes in Vlad still poking him in the neck with questions.
Why so many downvotes? This was a pretty good interview.
People dont know this Dude is a true Boss
Ray Dog speaking truth I'm from the hood in Boston I don't know what these internet thugs are talking about Roxbury Dorchester Mattapan...
I still listen to the lox/made men Tommy's Theme everyday
i wonder what his kid gonna think when he grows up n finds those em disses online :'D
Benzino on Growing up in The Streets with no neck
ear1yb1rd aye at least if someone is trying to slice his throat with a knife they won't be able to find it
Haaaaha
I Fw His Answers 💯
why all the thumbs down??
damn bro how you turn your head wit no neck cuz???
Eminem Ended This Nigga's Career With Nail In The Coffin.
he didn`t even have a rap career to begin with
+ken2388 nigga should have never tried 😂😂😂
this nigga was the first black twitter bitch.. that wack ass eminem diss was the original "he's a straight white male!!!" 😂😂
ken2388
True. Benzino was Just a one hit wonder Bruh. Remember Rock The Party? Most people that played NBA Street Vol. 2 remember that song.
hey Vlad, ask Paul Pierce about Benzino, the Made Men & almighty RSO
Benzino is a life NINJA TURTLE
he said "as black people, we..." WE WHO? yu ain't black
wat is he then? nappy hair and high yellow lol
half black half italian
I wish just once someone would refer to drug dealing as what it really is: poisoning your own community
Blood, bones, guts? This nigga described the streets like he was Napoleon Dynamite
shout out to big Trev,for bringing zino to my block a few years bac
Vlad... really my g? You gonna ask what it's gonna take for Ben and his baby moms to be parents again??? Word duke?
Bro is a real one
Benzino got killed lyrically but he's still a real businessman, but he's more relevant than Joe Budden.
It's obvious you haven't heard of almighty RSO or Made Men and he helped start the Source magazine
LOL! Vladimir asked this man one thing and then he's just gon go off into a whole different tangent. Anyway, thank you for that _The Source_ issue you did on Eminem back in 2004. I still have it and the lil' cd it came with just for a *reminder*.
Damn Vlad....the man just said he doesn't wanna speak on his situation with his wife. And he keeps bringing up more questions smdh. And he wants to bring the man's child up in the interview. Vlad have so fucking respect when it comes to people's personal life.....fuck!!!
Every rapper was selling crack and never get put in jail for confessing.
Damn I miss the source magazine
imagine he choking on a bone. u gotta let him go n walk away . can't heimlich maneuver this guy .
Vlad, next time you interview Ray Benzine, ask him what is up with Hangmen 3's No Skits Volume Two, Made Men's Black Friday, Wise Guys' unreleased album and Mister Gzus' album.
benzino look like nelly at 50 something lol
lol exactly
Does anyone remember Ivan Putski from back in the day in the WWF?
