Biografia

  • D12 (formed in 1996) is an American hip-hop group known for the songs “My Band” and How Come” that rose to prominence following the success of member Eminem, hailing from Detroit, Michigan, U.S.

    Originally formed of members Proof, Bizarre, Kuniva, Kon Artis, Bugz, and Eminem in 1996, D12 is short for The Dirty Dozen. In order to make up twelve members, each rapper had a alter-ego, which transformed into a character in its own right, most notably Eminem's Slim Shady. In 1997 D12 released their debut EP “The Underground” and began raising their profile across Detroit. As their reputation was building Eminem left to pursue his solo career, later releasing his first album, “Infinite”, in November 1996. The Detroit hip-hop duo Da Brigade, comprised of Kuniva and Denaun Porter, subsequently joined D12, after which rapper Bugz was shot and killed at a picnic. Eminem returned to serve as his replacement and the group recorded and released the full-length “Devil’s Night” in his honour.

    Debuting at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, and No. 2 in the UK, the record spawned the singles “Purple Pills”, “Ain’t Nuttin’ But Music”, and “Fight Music”. The album blended the playful and parodic with the serious hip-hop production that Eminem fans have come to expect, later selling over four million copies worldwide. Three years later the group issued their sophomore album “D12 World” with Dr. Dre, Eminem and Kanye West on production duties. Finding the top spot once again in the U.S., the record was led by the smash hit single “My Band”, which rose to No. 1 in Australia, New Zealand and the U.S. Featuring guest appearances from Obie Trice and B-Real, the record maintains the playful nature of its predecessor however loses some of the childlike humour.

    In anticipation for the group’s third album, rapper Proof died from a gunshot wound in a Detroit club. Swift, who had been on probation, failed to attend a court appearance on the same day as Proof’s funeral and was sentence to 93 days is jail. Four years passed without any new D12 releases, however in 2011 the mixtape “Return of the Dozen, Vol. 2” found its release.

  • D12

    Here’s a chicken and the egg scenario for you - did D12 rise to wider commercial success because of Eminem, or did his involvement with the Dirty Dozen establish a platform for him to become the biggest rapper in the world? Either way, the Detroit group will always be intrinsically tied to Slim Shady - officially speaking, he remains a member - and those huge bangers that he was such an important part of, with ‘Purple Pills’ and ‘My Band’ springing to mind, will likely continue to be the group’s calling card. Excluding Eminem, then, who generally has bigger fish to fry, the current lineup is a four-piece, after the death of Proof in 2006 and the departure of Mr. Porter two years ago. Bizarre, Kuniva, Swifty McVay and Fuzz Scoota have toured the UK as recently as 2009, when they hit the road for a slew of club shows with Obie Trice and Royce da 5’9”, but haven’t released an album since D12 World back in 2004; their first full-length in a decade, as-yet untitled, is slated for release later this year. Expect new material, then, as well as a run through the classics if they return to promote the new LP; I wouldn’t hold your breath for an appearance from Marshall Mathers, though.

  • The Dirty Dozen better known simply as D12 are one of the most world renowned hip hop collectives after a former and infrequently current member, the rapper Eminem became internationally recognised in the mid-90s. Their careers will be forever linked yet this is not to say that D12 do not command a following and appreciation that is completely unrelated to Mathers. The prolific artist is still a cited member of the collective and tours alongside them yet following the death of Proof the group has not been out on the road as regularly.

    This is disappointing as they command such a huge following that whenever they roll into the venue they undoubtedly shut the place down with cult tracks such as 'Fight Music' and 'My Band'. With their own discography and the combined legacy of Eminem, the rappers go about performing a real crowd pleasing set featuring 'Under the Influence' by Marshall and their own 'How Come'. They pay tribute to Proof with one of his original tracks before closing on an ingenious mash up of 'Purple Rain' by Prince and their most recognisable hit 'Purple Pills' to bring the house down to its knees.

  • I went to see Snoop Dogg and Warren G earlier this year, D12 among a long list of others were said to perform too.

    On the night, Snoop was there, no Warren G and as for D12... it may as well have been renamed D2, as there were only 2 members and all they did was sing other rappers famous songs??

    They did a few of theirs but it just sounded like poor karaoke at best.

    Sorry to be the bringer of facts, I love music and perhaps it was just poor planning and communication but I felt ripped off, to say the least.

    No apologies, no mention of the missing artists that night.

    The whole show was a sham. The sounding engineers had the bass turned up so high, you couldn't even identify snoops most famous tracks.

    I've seen snoop in the past and it's been AMAZING, I'm not sure I'll risk it again though.
