Eminem vs. David Mays, Live and In Person
As you are surely aware by now, I am obliged to gloat about any scandal that befalls DAvid Mays or Benzino. There's a little more to this story than what has come out so far, but I am sworn to secrecy.. look around for more details tomorrow.
Below is a mix of MTV's current report and their earlier edit that rapnewsdirect cribbed wholesale:
Eminem and David Mays Face Off at Radio Station
On Tuesday evening in Detroit, Em and Source co-owner David Mays got into an off-air verbal confrontation at radio station WDTJ-FM.
Reports are still coming in, but according to sources close to the altercation, Mays was being interviewed at the station for an evening radio program. Some of Mays' words were directed toward the Motor City SoundScan king.
Shortly thereafter, Eminem arrived at the station with approximately 10 men. While sources say that no violence took place, there was plenty of shouting and four-letter words being flung...
..."[Eminem] starts yelling at the program director, 'You're a punk for letting this guy come up to the station.' The show basically ended, and I left and came to New York," he said.
Coincidentally, last time I talked to David Mays he was calling me a punk for letting some guys come up to the radio station and talk about him (namely James Bernard and Reginald Dennis). Many four letter words were flung on that occasion as well.

My favorite was this morning, on Hot 97 in NYC. Benzino gets on the air and calls Interscope records a bunch of racists for having released Patti Smith's "Rock and Roll Nigger" in the 70s. I had to clutch my chest at the stupidity.

The Hot 97 Benzino interview this morning was AWFUL, and just kept getting worse--everybody was tossing stupid all over the place. I will not repeat what Miss Jones said about "the Jews" or what Zino said about Russell Simmons.

Yo, do Reggie and James read this blog? What are they up to these days?

Reggie has indicated that he comes by here on occasion :) I don't get to see them that often, not sure what they are up to right now.. I know James was involved with that Hip-Hop Political Convention in NJ

What the f**k is benzino's problem n who the f**k is David Mays, the legend EMINEM said that he's falling back n he ain't gonna do nothing if benzino could shut the f**k up, Benzino is just a f*ck*n jealous b*****

Yo first of all Eminem is one of the greatest MC's to ever put out music. But this whole battle is starting to get out of hand but Benzino started it with his first song. How can Em be racist? Dr. Dre started him out and he SIGNED 50 CENT!
Posted by: Mike Jackson at January 14, 2005 02:04 PM
Em could maybe be a racist, but Benzino is DEFINITELY a publicity-whore with poor judgement. If the case is so open and shut, he shouldn't jeopardize it with constant yakking.
Posted by: Janine at January 14, 2005 02:21 PM
Every time Dave Mays opens his mouth he just looks dumber! It doesn't get any better, maybe next time he'll get his a@! beat! Does anyone ever wonder why he is so close to Benzino? Why is a Harvard educated man is the "yes man" a wanna be rapper/street thug?

Dave Mays is my homeboy from elem school up through h.s., and grew up a few blocks down from me. He helped to make hip-hop international by creating the Source Magazine and putting his life's blood into it.
Extortionist need to get out of his pocket. Those who know about this understand. It will come out in the end.
If anything happens to Dave the extortionist will have karmic retribution delivered. Hopefully, no further beef will occur between a brilliant artist, EM, and Mays over another man's greed.
Best believe that DC fam is watching out for Mays. Fam 4 Life.
May peace prevail.

I think the reason for this idiot Benzino changing his magazine dissin Em because he feeds off Em's reaction to promote his shitty mag to sell more but it has backfired on him as a lot of people in the industry were a bit iffy at first until he released hi first Album the Slim shady show was released. It blew up bigtime and the more Em released more songs and the skill and technique grew and the next thing he is touring with Snoop n Dre and I think he got the respect for his skill and was accepted by nearly the whole rap community next thing he is producing beats for Jay~Z collaberating with Xzibit, Nas, Nate Dog and a whole lot more and that DICKHEAD benzino has a lot more to do to catch up with Em concerning recording album sales. In as a matter of fact before benderzo started this shit with Eminem He was unknown to the world so "who's selling triple platinum records and controversial" Eminem "he must have thought this beef would sell more magazines and even release a few songs like his laughable freestyle at Hot 97 Benzino is a shit rapper and should quit even thinking of entering a recording studio and leave it to the professionals
