Benny The Butcher isn't interested in reconciling with Freddie Gibbs following their recent beef. Appearing on The Breakfast Club, the Griselda rapper explained where he stands with Gibbs. While he says he doesn't personally hold a grudge against the rapper, he won't be making amends because it would look "goofy"

The conversation began with Benny being asked about taking a photo with Gibbs’ ex-girlfriend, Destini. "I’ll tell you why. I almost cracked up laughing but I gave her chain back. That’s the homegirl. I’m really a nice guy. I gave her her chain back,” he began. "Then she came to my birthday party. That’s it. She was caught in the middle of some sh*t she had nothing to do with. She probably thought I was the devil, but she get to see that I’m a really nice guy and that’s it. Nothing more. Nothing less."
