EXCLUSIVE: Jarren Benton Discusses Funk Volume’s Battle With Horseshoe Gang, Challenges Other Crews For $500K

(AllHipHop News) One statement from Hopsin during an interview on Sway In The Morning ignited a lyrical contest between his Funk Volume label and the Horseshoe Gang. The Los Angeles based rapper said he would put up $500,000 against any other Hip Hop roster willing to battle him, Dizzy Wright, and Jarren Benton.

The four-man team of Horseshoe Gang struck first with “Half A Meal.” Funk Volume fired back with “Free Meal.” Kxng Crooked I’s little brothers then responded with “Same Day.”

AllHipHop.com caught up with Funk Volume’s Jarren Benton to get his thoughts on the back-and-forth between FV and HG. The “Silence” creator made it clear the face off was all in the spirit of friendly competition.

“There wasn’t real beef with Horseshoe Gang. Actually, we consider Crooked I extended family,” says Benton. “It was just all in fun. We’ll still do it if anybody else wants to step the f*ck up. We’ll go ahead and knock you out too.”

The Benton/Hopsin/Wright versus Julius/Demetrius/Kenny/Dice battle did not involve the half a million dollar bet since Horseshoe Gang did not match the money. According to Benton, the offer still stands for any other group or labelmates that want to take the challenge.

“All three of us are competitive. We really feel like we got the dopest squad,” declares Benton about his Funk Volume comrades. “So who’s next? We gave Horseshoe Gang a free one. We really put the money on the line.”

In an era when most of the clashing among artists takes place on social media, Funk Volume is looking to take the combat back to wax. Benton adds, “I wish more rappers would do that, instead of all the Twitter talking. If y’all want to do it, do it. Whoever wants to do it, let’s go.”

Even though he won’t be apart of Men In Black, the Philly native has other projects he is working on.

Eazy-E Associate Says He Contracted AIDS From Acupuncture (VIDEO)

Even though it has been two decades since Eazy-E’s death, there is still speculation that he contracted AIDS at the hands of someone who had malicious intent against him. A rapper was signed to Eazy’s label, Ruthless Records, has now come forward supporting this claims but with more details.

A rapper named Frost sat down for an interview with Siccness.net and said that Eazy was given tainted needles while receiving acupuncture. He says that the N.W.A frontman was in a 4-wheeler accident and underwent acupuncture to treat his injuries.

“They gave him tainted needles with acupuncture,” Frost said. “Needles that tainted him, they gave it to him.”

Frost also implied that the man behind this was Suge Knight.

“I don’t wanna say that name ’cause it’s the devil’s name, but another person in Rap, if you know you’re history of Rap, calls him the devil. If you know the history of Rap, West Coast Rap, you know who I’m saying. I was told even in my last conversation from Eazy not to even talk to that man. Not only that, but I think that they really had a stronghold of giving him tainted needles with the AIDS virus in him with acupuncture.”

Hell, I hope it is real!
