In a light-hearted jab at 50 Cent, Benzino thanked him for the unexpected publicity, saying, “Thanks, Curtis, for promoting me. Keep on posting me.” He added a playful challenge, questioning what 50 Cent was doing while he himself was busy working out, mentioning his impressive bench press of 315 pounds.
