Coi Leray says she reported Benzino on Instagram and is praying for him
Coi Leray and her father, Benzino, have definitely had an up and down relationship, over the last several years. A month ago, he nearly cost Coi her “Blick Blick” collaboration with Nicki Minaj, after he announced the song prematurely. Nicki and Coi ended up having a private conversation though, which saved that record.
Benzino was also accused of laughing at the album sales of Coi’s debut album, “Trendsetter,” this month on Instagram. Benzino went on to deny that he did this, on his Instagram feed.
Coi and Benzino’s relationship still isnt’ where it should be, but Coi said she is still praying for him, in a new interview on Real 92.9. She even reported Benzino’s social media feeds, so he can “heal offline.”
“Just pray. I pray,” she said. “I tried to hit up Instagram like…I don’t even know who to contact but I’m hitting headquarters like, ‘Report!’ You crazy?! Yes! I try to report him. He does not know the off button! My dad doesn’t understand like, yo. I love my dad because it’s like, family’s everything, right? But blood don’t make you family and when you start doing sh*t that starts questioning your loyalty and who you are as a person, especially to your own daughter, like, alright, bro.”
“If I could, I’d knock him the f*ck out, right?! I would if I could!” she joked. “No, I just have to pray for him. I want him to heal offline. I really do. That’s how we’re going to be able to get better.”
Coi’s Trendsetter album also debuted at number 89 on the Billboard 200, while selling 11,500 inits, in its first week. Many didn’t like that number, but Coi is still very proud of her effort on the album. It contained 20 songs, led by hit singles such as Blick Blick, “No More Parties” remix featuring Lil Durk, and “Big Purr,” fetauring Pooh Shiesty. Coi also collaborated with Fivio Foreign, H.E.R., G Herbo, and more, on Trendetter.
