Arch Nemesis [Clean] [Edited]
Arch Nemesis continues Benzino"s feud with rapper Eminem. What looked like a possible truce at the top of the year when Eminem recorded "Toy Soldier" on his now multi-platinum Encore, turned into a false alarm when the video was released. In a scene which shows Eminem agonizing over the bloody body of D-12 member Proof, Benzino is assumed to be the shooter. Catching feelings, Zino shot back with "Look Into My Eyes," a jab at Eminem as well as his first single: "If Eminem want to squash beef, tell him call me/ I"ll meet him anywhere, he can bring his army." Worth mentioning however, is that his reference to Em is only a small portion of the song. Not mentioned in any of his press is that the track is more about his life: "Pops went to prison/ I knew about the system/ Every Sunday morning me and moms paid a visit." Other standouts include the hood ode "What"s Really Good" featuring Scarface and the Lil Jon produced "Dat"s How It Goes." Surprisingly, this track finds a somewhat believable crunk Zino.
