Dave Mays & Benzino Speak on Busta Rhymes Incident

Friday, April 7, 2006
By: Michael Ivey


Dave MaysFormer CEO of The Source Dave Mays Wednesday shed some light on his March altercation with Interscope emcee Busta Rhymes, during which he was hit in the head with a bottle. "(Busta) started up with some words about something, and somebody came from behind me and hit me," Mays revealed on a morning radio show.

Mays reportedly down played rumors that he endured serious head injuries, saying he only received four stitches. Busta Rhymes was reportedly in Miami attending the Winter Music Conference when he and Mays crossed paths at club Opium. The exact cause of the incident is unclear, but Mays and partner/friend Ray "Benzino" Scott have had issues with Rhymes’ label, and label mates 50 Cent and Eminem in the past.

Ray "Benzino" Scott warned, "If me and Busta Rhymes see each other in physical person - not on record, not on radio - it will definitely be dealt with." He and Mays were recently ousted from their executive positions at The Source, in part because of the negative business and social impact of their conflict with Interscope Records, Eminem and 50 Cent.

Can't we get past this beef. Every damn hip hop website just keeps glorifying who got got or who got shot or who got robbed or who got dropped or who got arrested or who broke up a relationship with who or who gone bankrupt or who aint selling shi$ or who on crack or who got smacked or who jewels got snatched or car got jacked...... Enough of it already. This beautiful thing of ours done turned into satan worship. Chill media.....start printing some positive stories.

Let business be business fellows. This is what happens when people are not professionals and let their creative differences interfer with business. Hiphop is not a joke because of the south it's a joke because it's not a way of life anymore. Artists rap about killing one another and their bodyguards get the worst end of the deal. This is all i have to say you can agree or disagree whatever. Dirty dirty

If i was busta i would be lookin for benzino just to see the look on his face when he saw me

Ray benzino is not my favorite person this guy seems to think that he has all the answers. I just want him to be separated from any power he might have to impact hip hop because he has proven himself to be an unimaginable large turd stain on hip hop.

Benzino and mays are garbage, and busta should be out trying to find the person who killed his man! instead you got two washed up cats and one who will be washed up if he does not tighten up, beefing with each other. Whatever happened to battles on wax, and it was still all love? how did busta become apart of a beef that really was never directed towards him? what is the rest of the story?

Why are these cats still talkin like what they say matters to anybody. If yall wanna talk about somethin, explain how you let the source go from being the bible of hip hop to being the national enquirer of hip hip? explain how in the hell benzino get a hip hop quotable or how in the F*ck you basically waste 18 mill? gimme 1% of that (180,000) and i'd be straight for a good minute, na'mean. Until then sit the F*ck down and shut up while grown folks is talkin. Holla.

Man dont no care bout benzino + mays, worst mistake they made was takin on em, 50 + interscope, it cost them everything, specially fanx to the help of people like russell simmons who publically addressed the issue and stood up 4 em in the whole beef, russell simmons wot a ledge! and of course, i fink theres 2 much negativity round busta atm wiv this story and the whole fing wit his body guard izzy, they shuld jus let him b, and get dwn to gettin the big bang 2 b the classic album it will b!

Toe to toe benzino is a short lugi wit braids looking cat...and dave mays is another munchkin looking guy..on some real fist o' cuff they prolly wouldnt wanna see busta.....half the rap game are nuthing but midgets talking like they're killaz....and as far as the media not informing ppl about drama, yall saw what they story was about before yall even posted...yall read it and all, then spoke like yall dont like drama.....c'mon. It is what it is.

Seems to me busta didn't hit dude. He said he was talkiing to busta then somebody came from behind him with the bottle. I would love to see how that sh*t turns out. Busta and benzino i need some tickets for that one. Sad thing bout it, guns will come into play simply cuz nobody wants to get the ass beat the old fashion way. Even more likely than that the whole thing will be squashed due to n*ggas not having time to go fight somebody. I bet he take him to court and sue him. I know i would. Asap. If busta hit me with a bottle. That n*gga could just hand over his next five checks. Holla

This is all pointless beef, but if you think about it, beef is all that is keeping benzino alive and in the publics eye...he really doesnt have anything else since bein knocked down at source...so basically his beef with em and 50, and now busta is basically all he has to keep his name out there
