Benzino went on VladTV, where he defended Boosie Badazz’s statements about Lil Nas X. Coi Leray’s father also unpacked many other opinions on many current issues.
Benzino Shares His Stance On Kyle Rittenhouse, Black Lives Matter with VladTV
“You can just look at the motherf**ker and see that he’s a racist bastard,” Benzino shortly described the recent controversial Kenosha case defendant. He then continued, “there is nothing I hate more than these motherf**kers, what they do and how they get over.”
“I just don’t see how can everybody else not be as angry as I am because then we can stop pointing the gun at each other. Start pointing the f**king gun where it needs to be pointed at,” Benzino also stated on VladTV.
Despite his strong feelings towards Rittenhouse, Benzino also confessed he generally prefers to not get too involved. “At this point, I try to keep myself happy. I’m 56 and tired of the press. I don’t want to think of it one way or another: white man did wrong, he’s on trial… Let’s see what’s gonna f**king happen. Sure enough, not guilty!”
Once free, Rittenhouse claimed himself the Black Lives Matter supporter at “another co******er” Tucker Carlson’s show. Still, even this did not impress or surprise Benzino. In fact, the media proprietor claims the social justice movement is “full of sh*t too.”
“Black Lives Matter doesn’t really support black people anyway. Women running it, they don’t really give a f**k about what’s going on out here. These young kids losing their lives, they don’t care.”
Benzino’s main problem with BLM is that “they don’t use their voice all the time when they need to use it.”
“The Dolph thing…At least, put out a press release. Nah, man,” Benzino lamented on VladTV. “They are just the movement of the moment, whom white people feel comfortable with to send the money, so they can feel like they care.”
Benzino On Atlanta Dominating Hip-Hop
“Memphis got something to say about that now; Memphis been popping. Hip-Hop is everywhere now. Look at Chicago too. I think the days of New York or Atlanta are leaving.”
Benzino’s statement on VladTV responded to Young Thug’s claim on Atlanta dominating the Hip-Hop industry for the next 10 years. Thugga made the bold claim in November while going live on Revolt TV.

Benzino also defended Boosie Badazz on VladTV, from public shame for hateful comments towards Lil Was X.
“Guys like me and Boosie and how we grew up and everything, it’s a lot. It’s different for us, and people should respect that,” the producer explained. “Just like we should respect them, they should respect us. And if we can respect each other, I don’t think we’ll have a problem. What anybody does in their bedroom is up to them, you know.”
Benzino also added that Boosie and Chapelle didn’t face any backlash or canceling in the hood.
Boosie later thanked Benzino for his supporting statements on VladTV.
THANKS @IAMBENZINO FOR BEING A VOICE 🙌🏾WISH IT WAS MORE OF YOUR KIND MY G #real
In fact, Benzino shared that he also criticized Lil Was X’s appearance at BET Ceremony. In the deleted Instagram post, The rapper-boxer-record producer questioned how parents will explain Lil Nas X’s making out with another man to their children. Benzino also insisted he has “respect and love for the gay community.”
“I didn’t care for the Madonna kiss either. Now I hope I don’t offend anyone because this post wasn’t meant for that.”
Do you think Benzino strongly supports “traditional values” and stands up against tangible expressions of romantic passion on the screen, or is he just homophobic?
