    D12 owe Eminem more than something if we are being honest. They can perform and being recognize in Russia today only because he gave them lot of exposure with those 2 albums and putting D12 songs in MMLP, TES and even Encore.

    but what I don't understand is

    WHY THE f--- did Em pick Porter... out of the REST of D12... to be his f---ing hype man?

    Kuniva or Swift would be so much better as a hype man than porter.

    h---, f---ing Bizarre could probably be a better hype man

    Bet Bizarre was like "Nah we don't want those. I'd have to write a great verse on those beats"

    f---ing Bizarre

    Tbh no one owes anything to anyone. They all were given an opportunity and it was up to everyone to decide what to do with it individually

    Speaking of hype men it's off-topic but remember when 50 chose Hot Rod to be his hype man?

    Dude forgot the lyrics and 50 grabbed the mic and threw him off stage :bookah:

    I don't think it was ever handed off to anybody else

    When Kanye was isolated in Hawaii, he made doing that beat justice his life goal. That was a topic of a good portion of the MBDTF era interviews

    Besides, I can't find a source anywhere saying they passed on it. I can only find the story about in da club

    True or not let's be glad 50 and Kanye turned them into classic songs instead of d12 ruining them

    Eminem gave them a career, money and a potential future

    If they can't stand on their own two feet after being given that opportunity then they don't deserve success

    Actually besides Proof i don't think they were very close friends. From what i've read, Proof and Em were long time friends but the group got together not that long before Em rised to fame. If anything, Proof deserved the shared success for being Em's long time friend and supporter, but he owes nothing to the rest.
