Cassidy has just confirmed that he did not ghostwrite for any of Benzino’s diss tracks towards Eminem, “Vulturius” and “Rap Elvis” in a snippet of his new song titled “MIND CAPACITY” which he shared on Instagram on Monday (March 25, 2024).

The Philadelphia hip-hop artist and battle rapper addressed the rumors that he was the pen behind the punchlines with the following lines: “I ain’t ghostwrite Benzino diss, that’s bogus. In the past I ghostwrote for the writer that ghostwrote it.”

The former Source Magazine owner had previously denied that he had used a ghostwriter for “Rap Elvis” and “Vulturius” following online speculation. “I don’t wanna hear that ghostwriter s–t. This is Hip-Hop, bro. I don’t wanna hear that ghostwriter s–t. Shut the f–k up, bro. You mad because I’m spitting. I wrote that s–t. Yes, my n-ggas handed me some bars but I spit that s–t!”

His comments came after a social media user suggested that Cassidy secretly wrote Benzino’s diss songs due to the similarities in their rhyme style. “Anyone with a good rap ear can hear the Same flow patterns, internal rhyme style & his flips on the same word is SOOO Cassidy. Cass either ghostwrote or Benzino just bit his whole style. Eminem Won.” One fan wrote on Twitter. But later it was revealed that the ghostwriter was Atlanta-based battle rapper who goes by the name of Nes Lee. He’s considered one of the sharpest battle rappers in the game right now.
