Benzino came clean about stopping Eminem from receiving five mics in The Source during their beef in the early aughts.

The Boston rapper used to co-own the magazine until he got fired in 2006.

"I was the top of my motherf*ckin' food chain,” said Benzino on the My Expert Opinion podcast. "Even [Russell Simmons], Lyor [Cohen], all these n*ggas, Steve [Stoute] and everybody, they all had to answer to somebody ... I was the top of a damn near $75 million company when n*ggas wasn’t getting money like that. I got that big money first and I was the top of that, so when the Eminem thing came through The Source, at this point it’s getting disrespectful."

"So how the f*ck am I gonna have this n*gga in my magazine?" Zino asked the hosts. "Would you? You’re not gonna put nobody in your magazine to give this n*gga five mics after this n*ggas being disrespectful. You wouldn’t do it, man. Nobody would."

What are your thoughts on Zino using his former position at The Source to do Em dirty?
