Benzino Explains Why The Game Went After Dr. Dre

Benzino has been doing a lot of press lately, perhaps to combat all the bad press he's been creating for himself.

During his VladTV interview, he was asked to comment on The Game and Bow Wow, who have both recently diminished the influence the producer who brought them on has had on their career: Game brushing aside Dr. Dre and Bow doing the same to Jermaine Dupri

Zino seemed more interested in speaking about Game and Dre.

"Game reveres Dr. Dre.  Game and Bow Wow revered their respective producers at the time.  Sometimes we get frustrated and we say things we don't mean at the moment.  The type of person The Game is I'm sure later on in life he will probably fix that.  I think that was out of frustration.  It's not easy being an artist.  A lot of people troll and talk sh*t.  When you're on the top of the world as an artist, it's not easy when you're not on the top anymore.  You still have fans and you're known.  But it's not being revered as you once was.  And I think that's a frustration that gets to some and with the Internet being the Internet, instead of voicing it to them they are voicing it to millions of people and it becomes headlines.  But I think deep down [Game] knows who has a responsibility for his career.  And when The Game said it he was tipsy as hell," Zino said of The Drink Champ's interview during which Game claimed Kanye had done more for him then Dre.

Zino added that he knows what it's like to be frustrated.
