Famous In Michigan: D-12
Well since we had an article about Eminem, we’re almost obligated to mention his main crew, known as The Dirty Dozen or D-12.
Early on, the rap group known as D-12 was made up of Eminem, Bizarre, Eye-Kyu, Killa Hawk, Fuzz Scoota and DJ Proof. Some members would leave and some would join throughout the years, and eventually tragedy would strike not once, but twice.
Bugz, one of D-12’s members was killed one day at a picnic before a show in Detroit. DJ Proof also died a few years later from a gunshot wound to the head – this also happened in Detroit, and on the infamous 8 Mile Road no less.
