50 Cent criticized Benzino after hearing his latest freestyle, even though the track didn’t contain any disses aimed at him. On social media, 50 commented: “Yo this is the worst shit I heard this year. TF wrong with him he 60 years old bro. Nah this ain’t it!”
Benzino has not responded to 50 Cent’s remarks.

In the past, Benzino had claimed he could defeat 50 Cent in a fight. He said: “Being big don’t mean nothing in boxing, history has shown us that. 50’s been shot in the face before so that counts. He had to get reconstructive surgery; he’s not gonna be able to take any old punch in his face.” He added: “If we were to box in a boxing match and I were to train for a couple months, hell yeah I could box 50. I’m gonna pick me every time.”
Another odd moment in their history involved a video 50 Cent posted on Instagram. The clip showed Benzino on the ground, crying and holding a knife, telling his girlfriend to “call the police.” 50 captioned it: “Benzino caught on video, by his girlfriend Ashley Bell threatening to unalive him self with a knife because she called the cops for him allegedly beating her.”
Benzino responded quickly, explaining the situation was misunderstood. “First and foremost, I just want to let everybody know I’m okay,” he stated. “Second of all, I want to let everybody know that was a rehearsal for a Tubi movie. My girl was helping me out. We was doing a script reading and that was a rehearsal for a Tubi movie.”
He further clarified: “That was the scene from the movie. I would never ever put my hands on any woman. I’ve never done that in my life. That’s for cowards and I surely wouldn’t do anything to hurt myself.”
Benzino concluded with a message to 50 Cent: “I also want to let Curtis know, thanks Curtis for promoting me. Keep on posting me, that’s dope. I’m in the gym heavy, benching 315. What you doing, Curtis?”
