In the early 2000s, Benzino and 50 Cent began beefing. Their feud started when The Source, which Benzino co-owned at the time, didn't give five stars to The Eminem Show, an album by Eminem, who signed 50 Cent and helped his career take off.

That led to diss tracks, such as Pull Your Skirt Up, by Benzino. Eminem retaliated with tracks The Sauce and Nail in the Coffin. 50 Cent has continued to trash talk Benzino.
