Excerpts from his April interview with allhiphop.com

AllHipHop.com: Okay. So some people might see you as, okay I don't know the best way to put it, but a lot of people hate you obviously.

Benzino: No, no a lot of people don't hate me. Clover, you gotta get out that Internet world Clover. Come out to the real world, Clover. Come outside, go to a club, Clover. Go chill out at a club, go dance in a club. Go chill out, go look at what real life is and real things are because if you're up there in front of that computer all day you might be getting a little bit cross-eyed. You might be losing touch with reality.

AllHipHop.com: Actually, I get out and I hear-this is what I hear from people that are not on the Internet-

Benzino: Again the Internet. The Internet is a minis- cule bunch of people. There's only like-I'm looking at AllHipHop now, there's 162 people on [the message boards] -that's so-like, come on man, Clover. Like these people are the people I'm talking about. They're not out there in the streets going to the-they're not doing that, man. They'd rather be nonchalant, no one can know who they are and hate and spew hate and negative opinions about people. I can handle that, but Clover if I'm so hated I wouldn't be, I wouldn't be like-like, I'm loved all across the country. Like Miami, New York, I go cross country now. Don't get it twisted because your little minute Internet world thinks that that's hate for Zino.
