Benzino has had enough of Jim Jones calling out Nas and described those who agree with the Harlem rapper’s stance as “stupid idiots.”
On Thursday (June 26), Benzino shared an Instagram video of himself addressing the Jones and Nas debacle noting that this issue is not “even a debate” to begin with.
“Enough is enough,” Benzino said at the top of his lengthy Instagram video. “Like, enough is enough. Don’t y’all see what the fuck y’all doing?”
Benzino also said that social media “is f**king us up as a people.”
“Y’all are taking part in really ruining the legacy of this fucking man,” Benzino said of Nas. “This man has a whole fucking legacy. This Jim Jones Nas shit wasn’t even a debate. Okay, it’s cute at first but it’s getting out of control. It’s getting way too disrespectful and it’s gonna cause irreparable damage to the culture.”
The Source co-founder’s comments come after Jones claimed that he has more Billboard hits than the QB legend.
“My son can’t tell me one Nas record,” Jones said of Nas’ reach.. “There must be some type of misconception when it comes to Jim Jones and what Jim Jones has done in this game. A lot of these rappers have done a tremendous job. And I take nothing away from them. But they forget, I got a hell of a catalog. Gold records, platinum records. … Check my track record. Then check everybody else’s track record.”
Recently, Jones said he was responsible for Nas going viral for the first time since his feud with JAY-Z.
“What I did for Nas probably never been done for him in his life. He’s never been that viral at all. Ever,” Jones claimed. “Ever. He’s never been talked about like this ever in his life.”
