Not gonna lie, I did like rock the party tho but I was 11 at the time. Haven't heard that ? since

Yadda yadda yadda Em murked him on wax. Game overrrr. Everything else is irrelevant, besides The Source was widely known to be biased from the jump.
The source was giving innacurate mics to people that had connections over there...lil Kim got a near classic rating n I believe benzino was giving his group high ass ratings too. I never fell for the Eminem is a racist ? ...benzino always came off corny to me and with an agenda. Em obviously got some corny music but overall dude is a top 20 rapper of all time -

Then what was he talking about?
? you posted the video..... Ja rule and irv already admitted they lost. How Eminem going to also?
Ja Rule won the battle but lost the war.
You can't post an Eminem line that hit harder than "Your mother's a crackhead and Kim is a known ? / So what's Hailie gonna be when she grows up"
Didnt em daughter graduate valedictorian of her class.. -

It proves that Em didn't need a machine to prove he can rap better than most. He went after the "Machine" you claim :joy: -

99% of Eminem fanbase didn't even care about the racist ? .
In all that what Benzino really did was ruin the integrity of The Source which was a beacon of hip-hop news and opinions. The Source was powerful at the time then Benzino used it to further his own beef and and career and its never been the same since. He has irreparably damaged The Source's legacy.
I say this as a dude who has stacks of XXL and Source mags. I loved copping them but over time the back and forth ruined them both.
? BENZINO, then, now and forever. He ruined hip-hop journalism.

Google "50Cent XXL cover". Em might not have been on the cover much, but his employee was. 50 has had hella XXL covers. 50 was Em & Dre attack dog. And Em did eventually dropped his issue with XXL. He shouted them out on "The Sauce". He said something like "I got XXL number anyway". Interscope had XXL on lock which eventually led to the decline of XXL. Moreso than the internet. Elliot Wilson would get so moist in his editors comment section about 50. It was sickening.
But as far as rapping, Em was nice during that era. But as most say, 80% of his music has aged horribly. -

...so I guess those "? " drops didn't bother you huh? ? ? /clown. Aren't you a half breed, btw? -

Absolutely. XXL was ruined by this whole ? too.
The Source being obviously biased led to XXL taking sides. Interscope was using XXL to counter The Source and in the end XXL and The Source were damaged by it.
They were both inflating reviews, using their reviews to take shots at artists it was ridiculous. -
Lol ay b don't ask another man for a pic -
? Zino Bonds.
Half-? used the Source to set up like he was a Boston Kingpin. Fake-ass Whitey Ford. Average rapper, borderline trash group that kept getting promo, no matter how irrelevant to the game they were.
The Source ? a lot of up and coming artists out of mics in reviews, which at the time really helped make or break careers. One of which was Little Brother. The Minstrel Show got 4 mics, and it came out later that was intentionally lowered from 4.5 because they were too underground or some ? . Yet, Kim's "Naked Truth" got 5 mics when it was a straight 3.5-4 album, tops.
The Source was corrupt as ? , and Benzino was at the head of it, just to promote his ? group and anyone else on The Payola. They did tons of damage to hip-hop that was never brought to the light. I LOL'd when Em and Interscope decimated that dude.
People only mention him at all cause he got the dirt out on Shady, which was worth some points, but not enough to balance out all his previous fuckery.
? Rock the Party. -
He was a wack rapper but he did bring up some good points about Eminem though.
