Time to break this down:

Verse]
Rock & Roll was a black thing until Elvis came and made it different (Okay)
- Music genres aren't owned by any race. Music is evolutionary. Em already called himself Elvis. -1 point

You can't self sustain, you too selfish wait and listen
- Em still relevant. - 1 point

(What)
You keep saying my name you put yourself in this position
- Benzino has been talking about Eminem recently. Em finally responding. - 1 point

This what happens when the Celtics play the Pistons
- Decent bar. +1 point
(Swish)
I was minding my business (Huh), you wasn't making any type of noise these days
- Has been talking about Em recently. Em been meaning noise. - 2 points

So a choice was made, clout chase Benzino and Coi Leray
- Can't clout chase someone irrelevant. - 1 point

You still in your annoying phase (Wow)
- Em its in his least annoying phase. Bar is late. - 1 point

Ay, what do you call it when a man that stans Stan, is a Stan, help me coin the phrase (Ha ha ha)
- I don't get it. I'll give him a point, since I don't know how to judge this line. +1 point

I am the culture, you don't even be around
- Benzino not the culture. Em has been in multiple hip hop documentaries and is always wearing hip hop artists shirts. - 1 point

You don't even come outside, you don't even see your town
- Em too big to just walk around. Em has done a ton for Detroit. - 1 point

Icewear Vezzo said "yo Em don't be showin' the city love"
Why you ain't got no words for him, huh? He in your city, bruh
- Em has done his fair share for Detroit artists. Can't help them all. Icewear actually stuck up for Em in this beef... Haha - 1 point

I wonder why, we wanna see, just say something please
Couldn't be possibly that you ain't really from them streets
- We all know Em ran the streets of 8 mile? - 1 point

I was born and raised in my city (Bean Town!), you shouldn't come for me
I don't know where you from, let's say Missouri loves company (Hah)
- Em has talked about being from Missouri. Good bar though. +.5 points

I'm probably more Detroit than you 'cause these real n----s know me
- Definitely not more Detroit than EM. - 1 point

I was with YBI in '86, yeah, that's my OG's (Ohh wee)
4 corners, Columbia point
My young boys had the Mo Z's on Dexter with the Bomb Boys close to me (Okay)
- Decent bar. +1 point

Okay, you found 50, and you put on five Detroit n----s
Rest in peace to the best one, the rest of them sound iffy
- I thought he didn't do anything for Detroit? The rest of them are all better than Benzino. -1 point

So let's go down your stable (Okay)
Gunn left your label (Uh huh)
Benny left your label (That's right)
Con' left your label (Ah)

- To start his own. -1 point
Joe Budden left your label (d---),
- Joe retired. -1 point

Ortiz left your label,
- Not by choice. -1 point

know Crooked I couldn't save you (Nah),
- Em doesn't need saved. -1 point

Yelawolf been out here floppin'
- Yelawolf not flopping. Dropped like 4 albums in one year. Mudmouth is a classic. -2 points for not putting respect on an artist 10 times better than him

and where the h--- Ca$his at though? (Where he at?)
- Em can't make every artist huge. But sucks as a label head. +1 point

Heard from Obie Trice only twice
- Em gave Obie a classic album. -1 point

and not a word from Stat Quo (Not a word)
- Stat still doing his thing and producing. I'll give Ben one more here. +1 point

With all them false lines that you pitched them
Shady Records sound like less of a name and more like a description (Stop it)
- I kinda get this line. +1 point for sympathy

Chain here, a feature there, beside of that, what did he do?
- Produced. -1 point

And why does this cat don't get the type criticism that Diddy do?
- Em a better person than Diddy.... -1 point

Huh, y'all see what all this corny rap s--- do to you?
- Benzino has corny raps, which is why he stopped releasing records. -1 point

Since you so Hip-Hop, you should've went to Nipsey's funeral (Wow)
- This is a terrible bar. He can't go to every funeral. I believe Em gave a shout to him in a song though. -1 point

If you support 50, then why ain't you go to Smoke funeral?
- Again. Can't go to every funeral. -1 point

And now you spittin' gun bars, boy, I really throw two in you
Talk about "I catch a stray", you pull it and squeeze
- Terrible bar. -1 point

I've been shot multiple times, what's a bullet to me?
- Shot by his own nephew at his mother's funeral.... -1 point

Lookin at me, trust my process I am here to crook in these streets
You missing season like you rookie Embiid (Zino)
- Terrible bar. -1 point

You call our women black b------s then play the victim when there's distrust
- Benzino always racist. Discredits this bar. When has Em played the victim? -1 point

You keep using the art form that we created to diss us
They try to rewrite history make you Elvis of Hip-Hop
- Repeatable bar. -2 points

But in stores Slim should be on the shelves next to Slipknot
- Terrible bar. -1 point

You say you come from battle rap, but why don't you support none of these battle cats? (Why?)
Drake be at these smack events, where your a--- was at? (Ohhhh)
- Em put battling on the map with 8 mile. Em also helped with the movie Bodied. -1 point

Room full of hood n----s back to back and it's action packed (Yea)
And a pop rapper smack dab in the middle, imagine that
- Decent bar. +1 point

Last time you battled, s--- was like 22 years ago, vs Marv Won
What was the outcome of that match up? Marv won (I swear)
- Not sure how hard Em was trying, while trying to save his voice for the movie, but good bar. +1 point

You been afraid, you ain't no renegade, fam
- Everyone knows Em Bodied Jay. -1 point

And you duck my clipper blades 'cause you ain't with the fade, fam
- Em isn't scared of Benzino. Already put the nail in the bully. -1 point

Me, you and Royce can box, 2 on 1, y'all get the same hands
I'm in the trench with Ray Bands, so when I lift them, they land
- Sunglasses? This bar doesn't make sense. -1 point

- Little mangy minute made man? -1 point

And I'm pissin' all in your Lyrical Lemonade stand (Owww)
- Decent bar. +1 point

My n----- Young Zee dissed you (Ay)
Miilkbone dissed you (Ay)
Last Emperor dissed you (Uh huh)
Pacewon dissed you (Okay)
Real lyricists but you ain't go back at them did you? (Never)
- These are real lyricists? Pacewon sure. People diss Em to help their careers. Em isn't responding to everybody. -1 point. Didn't name himself as a real lyricist... Haha

'Cause you would rather battle pop stars to get your issue
You like to pick the low hanging fruit let's get this clear
You dissed, Elton John, your mom, your ex, Britney Spears
You dissed Lana Del Ray, fam, Moby, Iggy
Not Iguodala, the white broad, is you shittin' me? (C'mon, man)
Will Smith, Nick Cannon, Insane Clown Posse (What)
A retired Joe Budden, when I tell a lie stop me (Stop me)

Machine Gun Kelly (Okay), that boy d--- near whipped you (What)
Come on, dawg, how Vanilla Ice gon' diss you? (How that go)
- Decent bar. +1 point

If you thought giraffe bars was hard you really need to grow up (Stop it)
- The giraffe bar was hilarious and this is a bad response to that line . -1 point

You just plain Eminem, you ain't got no nuts, huh?
- Terrible bar. If Em didn't have any nuts, why he go at you? -1 point

This s--- 'bout to get really dark on you (What)
Get them dogs on you, to bark on you, dog on you, dog
- Terrible bar. -1 point

Soon as you log on, you got 'em locked on you
Like the laws on you (What)
- WTF is this? -1 point

Soon as your thoughts dawned on you
There's a problem on your hands now 'cause I got it solved on you (Right)
- WTF is this? -1 point

Don't make me f---in' call Benzino dog on you
- Third person bar? Proof this is ghostwritten? -1 point

I am really outside and this recluse need to get out more
- Repeated bar. -2 points

I run the outdoors (What?) and I can vouch for, anyone that been down, I can account for
- What does he run? -1 point

And how about your mind will finally be off of my neck when my hands squeeze around yours (MFer)
- Terrible bar. Doesn't even rhyme. -1 point

Someone add that s--- up and let me know how "Good" this actually was. Like actually read and break down the bars. Anyone who thinks this is good, doesn't know hip hop or the history at all. Didn't fact check anything be said.

He delivered it very well though. He did a good job at making it sound better than it is.

I’m still laughing at how Eminem’s merch t-shirt post has 200 thousand more likes then Benzino’s diss. at least rap devil was talked about offline and charted on Billboard. Ben so dumb, should have put it in Spotify then at least he could have had money for this week

Benzino has consistently trashtalked Em and his fanbase on multiple interviews over the past few years, while dipping out of schizophrenic episodes and apologizing and then being aggrassive and so on. I hope this gain tractions tho, so Em feels like he has to respond, just like what happened with killshot. Also it still feels like Em wanted this to happen, due to the randomness of dedicating a full song towards Benzino in the first place, let alone the first solo from him in years. However, Benzino admitting to not just have a ghostwriter but needing an entire team to write it.. It def diminishes the impact of the diss, should've just kept quite about that ngl. Time will tell tho, Killshot took nearly 2 weeks. Also there is a comedic aspect in picturing Em feeling pressured, checking the time and adjusting himself to Benzinos 48h rule lol

I say only because Stepdad has 71M, In Too Deep has 86M and Farewell has 76M

I Will is much more deserving of higher streams imo
