Benzino says he can’t deal with Coi Leray’s Instagram page. Speaking with Adam 22 on No Jumper, the father of the rapper explained why he has a hard time seeing what she posts on the site.  

“I can’t follow her Instagram because she could be in a bikini twerking or something, I love her to death. I want to be able to visualize her the way I want to visualize her as my daughter, not necessarily as an artist or as Coi.” Adam 22 added: “My mother has followed and unfollowed me a number of times over the years.”

Benzino and Leray have had a publicly complicated relationship for years. In July of last year, Benzino broke into tears while discussing accusations of being a deadbeat father. “I went through a lot, man,” he said on the We In Miami Podcast. “And it was hard for me to be looked upon — like I’ve been called all kinds of sh*t, but a deadbeat dad? Come on, man. I love my daughter, I don’t want to be that. I don’t want to be known as that, I don’t care what people think, but that hurt me. That’s my daughter, I raised her. When people say I hate on Coi’s career and jealous and all this, that sh*t is like, man, it’s evil. Because my love is huge for that little girl, man. That’s my little girl, man.”
