Benzino has shared his thoughts on why there is so much rancor between 50 Cent and Diddy, and it all boils down to “girl problems.”

In an interview with the We In Miami podcast, which dropped on Thursday (April 25), the ex-Source Magazine editor-in-chief suggested that the G-Unit head honcho might still have feelings for his child’s mother, Daphne Joy, who was recently tied to the embattled Bad Boy mogul in his ongoing myriad of sexual assault allegations.

“When you see the circumstances of Diddy messing with his baby mother, so right then and there, you know that has a lot to do with it, you understand what I’m saying?” he said. “Listen, if me and my girl break up, and then, two months later, he’s banging out my girl, then, I might still have feelings for my girl.”

He continued: “A lot of n-ggas are going to try to play like you don’t, but you gonna be a little salty, you know what I’m saying? So he’s…to me? He’s a little salty.”

50 and Joy dated briefly before ending things in 2012. Unlike his relationship with his eldest son Marques, the G-Unit television mogul has been a constant presence in Sire’s life, showering him with birthday gifts and often being spotted on his son’s Instagram page.

And while 50 Cent has used the son he shares with Daphne Joy to troll his ex and his rival in the past, he insists that he “doesn’t give a fuck” if the pair are more than friends.

That’s at least what the Power executive producer was claiming back in April of 2021.

fter a photo surfaced of the Bad Boy mogul with Daphne Joy, the mother of 50’s son Sire Jackson, 50 immediately took to Twitter to voice his indifference towards it all – as only 50 can.

“Nah me and puff fight over business shit,” 50 tweeted on Friday (April 9). “If he like the girl, he like the girl I don’t give a f*ck ! #bransoncognac #lecheminduroi”

As for Benzino, he also claimed in the same interview that he’d be able to take Fif down in a boxing match.

“Being big don’t mean nothing in boxing, history has shown us that,” Zino said. “50’s been shot in the face before so that counts. He had to get reconstructive surgery; he’s not gonna be able to take any old punch in his face.”

He added: “If we were to box in a boxing match and I were to train for a couple months, hell yeah I could box 50. I’m gonna pick me every time.”
