Doesnt it seem like...

[Kez]

Yeah i'm inclined to agree with whoever said it was because he pretty much outshined them all on Devil's Night.

It sounds Stanish, but he really did.

[Evil-Genius]

Just seemed like two D12 albums to me lol

[Jay-19]

Of course he did. D12 knew as well as Eminem that there had to be a lot of Eminem on it because otherwise it wouldn't sell as much as if he had equally much rap on the album as the other members.
That's just common sense, I don't think any of us would have liked the album as much as we did (well, at least a lot of us, maybe not everybody) if Eminem would not have had as much raps as he actually did have on it.

But I like all of D12, with exception from Kon-Artis at sometimes. His voice has the tendency to get a little annoying after a while.

[Noeezy]

really? d12 sucks? get ems dick out of ur ear and checkout their other shit

[Kuniva]
I never treat 'em like they wanna be treated, bitch beat it
Your purpose'll be defeated if you think that you're needed
Now what do you tell a chick who has two black eyes?
You ain't gotta tell her nothin, you just told her twice
And I don't wanna put my hands on ya, I got a plan for ya
Get with my mans, he gon' lay a couple grand on ya
So fresh and so clean, she know the routine
It's such a - wonderful thing, money flow like ravines
They say "Kuniva, get a clothin line" but I'ma chill
Cause when cotton ain't sellin pussy always will
And these women they be knowin the deal
That's why these niggaz be blowin a mil' just to keep a ho in they grill
And I ain't never been a pimp, I'm somethin like one though
I fuck 'em and leave 'em, you always love or like that ho
Cashin 'em out, they never get ahold of my chains
They only get that swollen up thang, I'm showin 'em game

[da r star]

I agree with the thread starter. But I think it was done on purpose. Because I remember that they wanted to give more shine to the other members, that's where My Band came from. Also, I think, around that time they dropped a mixtape without Eminem on it.

In my opinion D12 World was subpar aside from a couple of joints.

[Evan C.]

LOL, the funny thing is a lot of these "SICK D12" verses were probably written or greatly influenced at least in part by Eminem himself.

Oh yeah, and that Kuniva verse? Garbage.

[Solace]

Yeah I agree D12 is dope but that example of a Kuniva verse was wack sorry man. Shit most the people in CW could write that in their sleep. But yeah, im sure it was done on purpose for sales, makes sense of course.

[Emadyville]

It's probably 'cause Em outshined them all, particularly on Devil's Night.

Yeah I think this is the most accurate assessment

[James R.]

If I was going to bring a group out under my name that wouldn't sell otherwise I'd obviously put myself on most of the first album and then let them get some shine on the seconds. Good business is good business.

[justbb09]

he should of just came out with another solo album. it would of been fire

that ent got shit on eminem tbh

Dude that shits on Ems verse on the same song.... whether he was tryin hard or not

[Eminem]
Well I'm not a pimp or a player, see I'm more like the mayor
Grab a bitch up by her hair like I just don't care
and swing her in the air (AHH!) I'm talkin major ass kick
Toss a bitch out the house like Kwame Kirkpatrick
I'm a PIMP, so I give a fuck about a BITCH
But I don't make 'em trick, I'm RICH (whoo!)
I don't need the chips, they don't walk the strip
But I could spit some game and I could talk some shit
I'm somethin like a pimp, similar to a mack
I ain't makin the news, I make my baby mama pick up the slack
Drop Cadillac, truck {*phone rings*} fuck, I gotta go
That's my bottom ho pagin me back - I'm a pimp

[JPearson]

lets just say eminem kills d12 most of the time... coz e does, but some on d12s members verses are sick too...

LOL, that song is from 2005, when Eminem was popping about 20 pills a day and could barely string together coherent thoughts (let alone RAP well.) That proves nothing.

D12 are a collection of untalented, boring rappers. That's just the truth. The only one of them who was even technically decent was Proof, and as we all know he's no longer with us.

[Emadyville]

Well for one the example you guys gave was from Proofs album when D12 was featured on a track, I understand that it's a D12 song, but its not from one of their 2 albums.

I do have to agree with James R. like I always seem to do, makes sense, its good business, get them known, whether people buy it for em or not, which the vast majority did, and then people have to hear them, they get fans and he lays back more on the 2nd album and lets them shine more.

Overall I think D12 other than Em are decent, Bizarre is garbage, Proof had a lot of talent, and the others where mediocre rap stars, as in I feel if they came up they'd have like a Royce fanbase, most likely less, but a similar deal with what Royce has done.

Just my thoughts

[AnalKiddo]

d12 does not suck.. they are just average in my view
