Eminem Beef


With the successfull release of "Rock the Party", Benzino (the Arch Nemsis) had noticed white rapper Eminem on MTV and ZNO claimed that he was getting " a free pass" and this was right. After all Benzino has had to do to get in to this rap game Eminem and Jimmy Iovine were said to be "using dre". Well, after Benzino did a track "I Don't Wanna" on a "Hood Stories" mixtape in Boston he said "it aint a black and white thing that shits in the past I got some whiteboy's from Boston that will bust ya ass nigger" Eminem's camp herd the tape and Em replied with "The Sauce" and "Bully" then "Nail in the Coffin" while Benzino put out the strong diss "Pull up your Skirt" Benzino was looking on top of the beef, but with The Game getting invlolved Benzino released "Die Another Day" which put an end to the beef and stopped Eminem from beefing with the Boston rapper and Eminem no longer did shows in the United States. Eminem had seemed to have lost the beef as Benzino followed up with "Built for This" and "Lose yourself" later on in 2004, but the war was over and Benzino looked a clear winner.

Redemption


Redemption is ZNO's third album released with Elektra Recordings and featured the biggest song of Benzino's career "Rock the Party" as well as "Would You" with Lisa Raye. like The Benzino Remix Project and The Benzino Project, it failed on many levels, espically for the label he was signed to and the guests he had, and unlike The Benzino Project, it failed to chart. and as of August 11, 2007, his album has sold 23,563.
Suprising, this album had benzino's 2 highest charting singles, "Rock The Party" made it to #19 on the Billboard 200.

The Benzino Project/The Benzino Remix Project


The Benzino Project (released 2001) was ZNO's first album and featured rappers such as Snoop Doggy Dogg and Scarface the album featured the released songs "Bottee" and "Bang ta Dis". Followed by Figadoh. Then, Benzino released another remix of the album with Motown records called The Benzino Remix Project. the album debuted #163 on the Billboard 200, failing on many levels, espically with the amount of promotion from Motown Records. and the worst part of it is Benzino was dropped after a mere 4 months after the album was released. Suprisingly this album is still Benzino's best selling album, selling 75,000 copies.
