D12's Proof defends Slim Shady

D12's Proof responds to Source founder Benzino's criticisms of Eminem, saying the feud is misplaced frustration and D12 will not retaliate.

More squabbling – sort of – D12’s Proof has responded to Source founder Benzino’s recent criticisms of Eminem.

"Let's deal with the facts of the situation," he told reporters. "This is nothing but misplaced frustration. Em does not know Benzino; Benzino does not know Em. It's nothing personal between them. If he's mad that a white person can get away with saying such and such, why don't you just address the media?”

"It makes no sense. Then it's evident that you're trying to make more of a presence at retail. Now you're on MTV and BET. You were never there before. [D12] was about to retaliate on him, but we called Em and we thought, 'Why even waste energy on this dude? We're about to put a dope album together."
