Benzino got emotional during a recent interview with Carlos King while reflecting on his relationship with his daughter, Coi Leray. The two have had an up and down relationship over the years.
"I think being in the light, being a street guy with kids, plays into it," Benzino said. "We don't have no manual. We just go by what we know. And the good thing is that, since I'm older, I do have morality and understand from my mother and father because the older generations, that's what I come from. I want them to be better than me."
From there, he joked about how Leray will "grill" any girl Benzino stars dating. "I don't know how we got here," he admitted. He added that he wasn't sure how to balance the role social media would play in their dynamic either.
When No Jumper shared the video on Instagram, fans had mixed reactions in the comments section. "Praying for the healing of that relationship," one user wrote. Another joked: "Brudda said he asked chat gpt how to handle the situation."
