Eminem/ Ja Rule/ Benzino in the same film?


It is fairly well known that Eminem and Ja Rule & Benzino are pretty big enemies, because of their constant disses to each other, but what are they all doing in the same film? It seems strange that such enemies would even think of doing a film together, unless of course the hate for each other is only commercial, which is also quite loikely.

Hmmmm?

you guys do know they sit down at an executive sales table and talk out how they can get their names in headlines but talking trash about it each other.

its punters like you two that actually make it worth their time, effort, and money.

this film was shot in 1999, Eminem was cool with "The Source" and Benzino back in those days and matter of fact he appeared and performed at the source awards numerous times up until 2002. Benzino was half owner of the source btw and he credits himself for giving Eminem the Unsigned Hype column in March 1998. Anywho their beef with each other didn't start until 2003 when Benzino started taking shots at Em to promote his album. initially he said it wasn't anything personal rather he considered it like a heavyweight boxing match where he's calling Eminem out since he's the champ. Also, Benzino was cool with 50 cent and this was around the time when 50 just got signed to Shady Records/aftermath, after Benz had dissed Eminem 50 immediately called him up about it and Benz said he Never met Eminem, and he dissed him because "he was on top". So 50 cut all ties with Benzino and started dissing him too. Eventually Eminem did respond to Benzino's disses with "The Sauce" and "Nail in the coffin" which must have really gotten under Benzino's skin because he took it very personal and started raping about how he's gonna rape and murder his daughter haley like Benet ramsey. around this time 50 also did the bitch move by attacking Ja rule to promote his Get Rich or Die Snitching album, he made up some fake story about how his friend robbed Ja Rule and he was mad at 50 cuz he saw him hanging in the club with him. Prior to this Eminem was cool with Ja Rule, eventually Ja responded to 50 with a song dissing 50 Dre and Eminem, at the end of the track he spit a verse about Haley's gonna end up being a slut and that ticked Eminem and he started dissing Ja with that Hail Mary song.

anyways to make a short story even shorter, just because you were cool with somebody at one time doesn't mean the friendship will last. This Hip Hop witch movie isn't really a movie rather a cheap documentary where they interviewing a bunch of random Hip Hop artist, believe it or not this was before Eminem even dropped his Slip Shady LP so he was still relatively unknown to most of America
