Benzino's Former White Protege, Boston Strangla, Speaks!
IP:
"While Benzino has called Eminem "rap's Hitler", "Elvis Pressley" and a "culture stealer", Benzino had ironically signed a white emcee to his Surrender Records label in the late 90s called The Bawston Strangla. After being mysteriously dropped in 1999, The Bawston Strangla re-emerges to speak on the recent Eminem controversy, and Benzino's hypocrisy.
"I think he made a mistake, I think he was young. To me that's what it sounded like. It sounded like he was probably 16 or 17 years old his girlfriend broke up with him and he was heated. But at the same time, you don`t go putting stuff down if you don`t mean it like that", The Bawston Strangla said via phone, regarding the Eminem audiotape at the center of racial controversy. Last week, Benzino presented the media with two audio clips from an audiotape which included lyrics which The Source magazine has called racist. As a white rapper of Irish decent, The Bawston Strangla, believes the statements could be detrimental to the fragile racial accord in America. "Hip Hop has helped white people and black people come closer than ever. And this is something that could put another fence up and make the water a little bit hotter for everybody. It's inexcusable. You can't go around disrespecting black women like that, and he's got to have a viable or good enough explanation for what the hell he was saying." The Bawston Strangla was once signed to Benzino & Hangmen 3's Surrender Records. Interestingly, The Bawston Strangla claims that Benzino attempted to shape his image into a persona that strangely resembles Eminem's earlier days. "I don't want to say that he said you have to say this, but basically he came to me and he was like, this is the image I'm looking for on this song. I'm looking for a white kid from South Boston, who is Irish, who's extremely pissed off, got a drug problem, doesn't like authority figures and doesn't like Black people. My inital reaction was, I can't say that because I live in the most cultured part of Boston!" The Bawston Strangla revealed. "I was under the impression that it was being used for a movie and they were looking to portray a crazy white kid. At that time, I was young, I was new to getting a record deal so you kind of just want to do what the boss says." With the blessing of his black friends, The Bawston Strangla eventually said the "N" word in a song called 'Shamrocks & Glocks'. Consequently, things went downhill from there. "If you listen to that song, everything else I ever recorded is the exact opposite of that song. I can't justify myself for doing it. I was wrong for doing it", The Bawston Strangla said in regard to his use of the dreaded racial slur. Ironically, The Bawston Strangla got dropped from Surrender Records right around the time Eminem blew up. According to The Bawston Strangla, Benzino felt it would be near impossible to promote another white rapper while Eminem was making so much noise - prompting Benzino to put The Bawston Strangla on hold before eventually dropping him. Shortly after, rumors that The Bawston Strangla was dropped from Surrender Records for spitting the "N" word began circulating around Boston. "I heard a lot of stories, that Benzino gave me the beat and then I wrote the song and recorded somewhere else. That's not true. Benzino was there when it was recorded", The Bawston Strangla said. "As far as me being dropped because of using the "N" bomb, that's false." Meanwhile, The Bawston Strangla offers his take on the apparent vendetta Benzino has against Eminem. The word on the streets in Boston is that Benzino went to show love to Eminem at an awards show, only to be shunned by Eminem, who was pissed The Source didn't give him 5 mics. "It became one of those things where Benzino just kept trying to lyrically beat him, battle him and it wasn't working out so he just went for the next best thing", The Bawston Strangla revealed. "It was kind of hypocritical, because Benzino turned around and do the same thing to Eminem that he did to me." Despite it all, The Bawston Strangla is moving on, preparing a new album for a March 2004 release, on Commonwealth Records. "I have no hard feelings towards Benzino because of the song. It's like anything else, if you get divorced from a woman you're not going to get remarried to her. I wouldn't go back to Surrender Records, and I wouldn't go back with Benzino."
