Former Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta star and rapper, Benzino, is finally speaking out to let the world know why he went OFF on a female cop during that now viral video of his arrest the other day. Turns out, there was more to the story that wasn’t shown, according to the ATL businessman. As we previously reported, Benzino was arrested and seen on camera arguing with cops, telling the female cop to “suck my d**k,” during a random traffic stop, after one of the officer ran his license plate. Now Benzino has more to say about that arrest that went from o to 100 REAL quick.

Benzino Says Female Cop Was “Belligerent”

In an interview with TMZ, Benzino broke down what he says really happened during his arrest. He says that the part of the arrest that wasn’t shown, is that prior to him going off, the female cop was treating him like a second class citizen, telling him “Shut the f**k up.” The reason, according to ‘Zino, is because he wanted an answer as to why his license plate was randomly ran and why the officers singled him out, in what he is adamant was an act of racial profiling:

“I was upset, you know. The woman officer, she had said a couple things to me….and that wasn’t on the camera. She had first pulled up, told me to ‘shut up.’ And I asked her, ‘Why was I being pulled over?’ She said she didn’t have to give me no reason, [to] ‘Shut the F up.’ She was being belligerent too, but…they’re not showing that part of the [traffic] stop].”

But Wait…There’s More>>>
