Month: May 2004

It is always sad to see your friend become your enemy, particularly in Eminem’s case, because real friendship and loyalty really matter to Marshall.
Marshall and Royce have been friends since the beginning.They knew each other since 1997. They have been collaborating since the Slim Shady LP :
‘I started rhyming about ’95. I always did it as a hobby, just freestyling with my friends, but I actually started writing rhymes in ’95. I met Eminem in ’97. And he was like, “We should get together and do something.” So we got together and recorded Bad Meets Evil [in 2001]. Then he got the deal he wanted to put the joint on his album. So I went out to Cali to re-cut the vocals.’
(Royce Da 5.9)
Royce is featured on the track ‘ Bad Meets Evil ‘ where you will certainly enjoy both men’s talent.
At this time, Royce had a lot of respect for Eminem :
‘ Em is a genius and a perfectionnist. Anybody that goes in the studio with him, he’ll bring the best out of him . ‘
You have probably enjoyed the video of the song ‘ Rock City ‘ where both men show their talent.
No doubt : the first shadow in Royce and Marshall’s relationship is due to a huge misunderstanding. Royce wrote some lines in 2003 about the Anger Management Tour :
‘Fuck Anger Management, I need to hire somebody to manage my anger.”
Marshall and his D12 fellows felt it like a diss.
Eminem didn’t use the lines written by Royce and got mad at him.
Marshall’s biggest mistake was certainly not to talk about it when Royce himself and to stay angry. Although the content of Royce’s lines may create some confusion in the way they can be interpreted, the lack of dialogue in this situation is obvious.
Royce always pointed out that he never intented to diss Eminem :
‘ For some strange reason, Eminem and D-12 took that as a diss. Why? Why would I diss Eminem the illest lyricist on the fucking planet? I heard that Em was upset, so I started putting in phone calls to his camp to set the record straight and too let them know I would never do something like that. Paul (Em’s manager) told me that “Em is not talking to you period.” Its crazy how we are supposed to be cool, but they accuse me of something and do not even attempt to get to the bottom of it. But I turned my back on him right?’
According to Royce, Proof has attempted to squash the beef, but it just didn’t work out :
‘I wrote that record because I thought Bizarre dissed me on some local Mixtape around the time they were really mad at me. They had diss raps for Em because of me! I did the Bizarre diss and called Proof to the studio, because he was my nigga and I’m a real nigga. I told Proof, I know he’s in your camp, but he dissed me and I gotta spank him! Proof came up to the studio, heard the record (the whole record, including the line about Bugz), laughed and said it was crazy and told me he loved me for being real and calling him! Proof told me he wanted me and Em to talk, so he got us on the phone and we squashed everything! Ya’ll niggas are the first ones to say ya’ll got families and you just want to rap and get money and now your starting this shit like I’m not supposed to defend myself, fuck ya’ll! I’m a man of my word, so when I agreed everything was squashed nobody heard that diss until now—three-years later. In regard to the Bugz line that everyone was supposed to be all upset about, it was just meant for Bizarre, it was not written to play on the radio and we was rushing to the station that day to play it and we edited the shit real fast and that line got missed. But to show how real I am, I felt bad that it got played and I called Proof to apologize and was even willing to go on the air to apologize.
After all of this, I got a voice mail from Proof and he’s on there cocking his gun talking about what he is going to do to me.’
But what if Royce’s lines were inspired by a little bit of jealousy ? Didn’t he get a little bitter when Obie Trice and 50 Cent were signed to Shady Records ?
This is Proof’s comment about Royce which seems to confirm the involvement of some jealousy in the conflict that opposes him to Eminem and D12 :
“First and foremost, I knew Royce, before Em knew Royce…He went on a quest to find Em, and that’s the flat out truth. He knew Eminem was gonna have a deal and he did what he had to do to try to get somewhere and that’s the bottom line. Me and Em is fifteen years deep, and I can’t tell Em not to sign 50 Cent, I can’t tell Em not to sign Obie Trice, I can’t tell Em not to befriend Royce. That ain’t my call.”
Proof also points out that his crew never started the beef:
“He’s saying we started it but it’s all in his statement and he’s covering it up with lies. How can we start the beef when he made the first diss three years ago? Come on now… That don’t even make sense, then he said that I called his house clicking guns on the phone. Dude is lyin’, I don’t even know his phone number! The truth of the matter is that he knows that he called my voicemail and my voicemail got me on there clicking hammers and sh!t, so he tried to reverse it on some bullshit. That nigga need to grow the fuck up!”
In an interview, Royce declared that D12 ‘ was ruining rap and that they were the worst rap group ever. ‘
At 50 Cent’s release party in Detroit, D12 released a free mixtape that was aimed at hardcore fans (that is- by the way- worth listening to). The first track of the D12 mixtape is called ‘ Smackdown ‘ and used 50 Cent’s tracks from ‘ Backdown ‘. It is a full diss against Royce. Eminem didn’t appear on the tape, though. Only the 5 other members are dissing him.
Having a long term friendship with Eminem, didn’t he wish, even secretly, to be part of the Shady Rexords team ?
It seems like Royce has much more a problem with the D12 crew than with Eminem himself.
He started dissing Bizarre in response to a diss track written by Bizarre towards him on the DJ Butter mixtape’s track called ‘ Don’t Try This at Home ‘.
Royce retaliated with a diss mainly aimed at Bizarre called ‘ Shit On You ‘. This diss was never released, obviously because Royce’s first intentions were not to beef publicly with D12.
Royce retaliated with 3 disstracks aimed at d12. They are called ‘ Malcolm X ‘, ‘ What We Do ‘, ‘ We Riding ‘, ‘ We Riding ‘ being directly aimed at Marshall. At this moment, Royce turned his back to eminem and his crew and was even thinking about further collaboration with the enemy camp from Murder Inc.
According to Emineminfo.com, the beef between Eminem, D12 and Royce has been squashed recently :

Hopefully they might be right about it.

Eminem will be in charge of moderating something? What is the world coming to? He needs to go and hug his mama.
But all jokes aside, Russell Simmons, Dr. Benjamin Chavis and The Hip-Hop Summit Action Network announced Wednesday that the Detroit native and multi-platinum hip-hop artist will host the Detroit Hip-Hop Summit, Saturday, May 22nd from Noon to 4pm at the Fox Theater.
Co-chairs of the Hip-Hop Summit Action Network – Damon Dash, Sean “P Diddy” Combs and Kevin Liles – have all worked with Simmons and Chavis in their initiative to reach out to youth across America around HSAN’s Youth Voter Registration and GOTV initiative, called Hip-Hop Team Vote, which launched at the Detroit Hip-Hop Summit ’03.
This coming weekend has been declared “Hip-Hop Weekend” in Detroit by Clear Channel Radio’s FM98 WJLB and a capacity audience is expected at Detroit’s historic Fox Theater.
Headlining the Detroit Summit with Eminem will be 50 Cent, The G Unit, D12, Obie Trice, the Ying Yang Twins, Reverend Run of Run-DMC, Doug E. Fresh and Layzie Bone of Bone, Thugs ‘n’ Harmony, among others.
“I know people been down on Eminem, but all I ever see is him giving back,” emphasized HSAN Chairman, Russell Simmons. “They can talk about me, but Eminem is a giver and I’m proud to work with him.”
Dr. Benjamin Chavis stated, “We’re excited about returning to the city of Detroit and working again with Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick, who serves as a shining light of hope and leadership, not only for youth in Detroit, but for young people throughout America. We intend to celebrate the evolution of hip-hop throughout the state of Michigan, and to encourage the largest youth voter registration in the state’s history.”
The Detroit Hip-Hop Summit is sponsored by national sponsors Anheuser-Busch, Inc, Playstation2 and Pirelli. The radio sponsor is Detroit’s FM98 WJLB.

I would never have imagined ‘not even in my worst dreams- that the music that pleases my ear could be used as a torture.
But that is what actually happens when Americans suspect some people to belong to the Al Quaida network.
Shafiq Rasul and Asif Iqbal are muslims with British citizenship. Both were detained at Guantanamo Bay in Cuba in an American prison camp:
http://www.allhiphop.com/hiphopnews/?ID=3171
They have been forced to listened to rap music, Eminem’s music in particular at deafening levels.
Sometimes psychological torture can even be worst than physical torture.
The same misadventure happened to Mohammed Jaber, a Libenese pilgrim who wanted to visit Islamic holy sites:
“We said we came only to visit the holy sites in Kerbala. They didn’t torture us physically, but they did psychologically by raising the volume of rap music all day until it became unbearable and by withholding food.
It could have been worst for Mr Jaber if he hated rap, for instance. But there is no excuse for such behavior from the American troops.
‘I mean I like rap. Just imagine them playing jazz.”
Because Islamic faith is often confused with integrism, such confusions often occur. Muslims are often viewed as the enemy from the American side. Not every Muslim feels sympathy for Saddam’s regime. This confusion comes from a total misunderstanding of the Islamic culture and tradition in general.
It would be high time somebody stopped Bush’s worthless Iraqui war. Too many people have lost their young lives for nothing and mostly to serve President Bush’s interest.
I find it quite ironical to use Eminem’s music who clearly showed his opposition to the war to torture so called enemies. Moreover, it is really despicable and disgusting.
Everywhere in this world when human rights are denied, we ne

If Eminem could go back to 2000, he would probably like to erase June the 3rd from the calender.
June the 3rd,2000: the day Eminem got into trouble with Douglas Dail from ICP and John Guerra, the man who kissed his ex wife Kim.
The events that happened this day caused Eminem’s arrestation and weapon and assualt charges.
Prosecuters have charged Eminem with 2 felonies:
-carrying a concealed weapon without a licence
-assault with a deadly weapon
Those circumstances could have lead him to 5 years jail sentencing.
Full details story
Around 5 pm Douglas Dail was somking a cigarette in the Mickey Shorr parking lot at Woodward Avenue in Detroit when Eminem drove by with his car. Both men exchanged looks. Douglas Dail must probably have added some verbal provocation, because Eminem asked Douglas: What did you say to me?
Although Douglas Dail pretends not to have said anything, we may doubt it.
Marshall pulled out his 9mn Smith & Wesson from his car and yelled at him: “I’ll kill you! I’ll shoot you!”.
It is also known that Kim and Douglas Dail’s girlfiend, Jennifer Childers began shouting loudly at each other.
Eminem’s intentions were more to scare his rival Douglas Dail, than anything else. Witnesses can testify that Eminem pointed his gun at the ground. When Eminem finally left, Douglas Dail called the police. Hours later, Marshall suspected Kim to be cheating on him and he went to the house of his friend Gary Kozlowski ( who is mentioned in the skit of The Eminem Show.)
Marshall already knew Kim was spending some time at the Hot Rocks Cafe in Warren. Both Marshall and Gary drove to the Hot Rocks Cafe around 2 am. When Eminem saw Kim kissing John Guerra, he went mad, jumped out of the car, and pointed a gun at John Guerra’s head, threatening to kill him. Both men started to fight.
Eminem’s gun fell on the floor. It was picked up by his friend Gary. When the police arrived, Gary showed them that he was in possession of the gun, but Eminem confirmed that the gun was actually his, so it led to both men’s arrest. Because she started insulting the police officers, Kim was charged for disturbing the peace.
Another man, Robert Lee Brown, who probably wanted to help Eminem out, pretended to be him. He created some confusion and was arrested too, because he wouldn’t leave the scene.
In Court: harsh times in Marshall’s life
You have probably seen pictures of Marshall in Court and noticed how much he seemed to suffer at this time of his life. Besides Ronnie’s death and his school bullies, Marshall’s time in Court will probably remain one of his worst memories.
Fortunately , Eminem’s probation time is over since 2003.
For the incident with Douglas Dail, Eminem had to pay $ 1000 and $ 10.000 for his felony charges concerning the incident at the Hot Rocks Cafe in Warren. Marshall was went on trial in 2001 and was eventually sentenced to two years of probation. Eminem points out that the judge treated him fairly. He was happy to escape jail time, because his biggest fear was to be separated from Hailie:

The judge treated me fair, like any other human being. I just want to get it behind me and get back spending time with my little girl and making music.

A bad sentence would have compromised his career too. Prosecutors had asked for a six months jail sentence, but judge Viviano pointed out that Eminem had no criminal record and also that his gun was unloaded.
Probation terms
During his probation, Eminem had to respect following terms:
-He was allowed to travel within the USA for work purposes.
-He needed a special court permission to leave the country
-He couldn’t use drugs and drink huge amounts of alcohol and had to submit to regular testing.
Although some people might think Eminem acted like this to get some publicity or to look more like a thug, Marshall didn’t do it intentionally to look tough.
Friends and family
Rapper Snoop Dogg, Eminem’s little brother Nathan and even Debbie (who was suing Marshall for defamation at this time) showed up in the Courtroom to show their full support to the talented rapper.
Fans to back Marshall
Many fans waited out of the Courtroom and were wearing some Eminem T-shirts to show their full support.
Stephanie Stempilewski of Warren expressed her happiness about the sentence:

I’m really glad he’s not going to jail. I just support him all the way.

Marshall is lucky to have true fans who will stand on his side in good times as well as in hard times. I am proud to belong to them.

A Detroit federal judge has ruled that Eminem’s copyright infringement lawsuit against Apple Computer for their unauthorized use of “Lose Yourself” can proceed:

Because they try to imitate his clothing, his body attitude, because they dyed their hair blonde, many lookalikes may pretend to resemble Eminem.
A few of them can be viewed on the following websites:
http://www.lookalikes-usa.com/list.cfm?NAME=eminem
http://www.splitting-images.com/eminem.html
When you examine all of them (not even carefully), you perfectly know they are not Marshall Mathers. They don’t really look like him.
But I must say that the same rule doesn’t apply to the man who is following Eminem when he’s on tour. I have met this person at Paris Bercy on June the 19th and I was really confused when I discovered he was not Eminem. He has the same height, he exactly walks like Marshall and it may happen that die hard fans like me may confuse him with the rapper many times.
When I saw him walking out of the bus, I started talking to him, thinking I was talking to the real Marshall. Maybe I should have noticed that his voice sounded different and that his eyes were a little bit too blue to be Marshall’s eyes. But well, I was concentrated on my goal and I wanted to give a short presentation of the bio I had written on him.
I started talking and Eminem’s lookalike listened to my whole speech without saying anything.
Then he suddenly aswered:
‘It is not about me!’
He probably must have been amused , although he didn’t show anything. He just showed me his shoulders: no tattoos on them!
Then I understood my mistake and started laughing at myself.
For obvious security reasons and knowing that the number of his enemies has increased, Eminem has hired some body doubles:
http://www.contactmusic.com/new/xmlfeed.nsf/0/532C387E7800EAE780256D4F0045687B?opendocument
One of them is a man named Joe Pace who lives in Shelby Township, Michigan:
http://www.freep.com/entertainment/music/embox12_20030712.htm
His nickname is even ‘Partial Mathers’, which means that he must look ‘ at least partially- like Eminem.
Eminem’s body doubles are doing a dangerous job that requires lots of qualities. They deserve a lot of gratitude, even from us fans, who may sometimes be disappointed to meet them rather than the Real Slim Sha

The D12 song from the D12 World album ‘Good Die Young’, which is dedicated to D12’s deceased member Bugz sounds like a prayer and also like a big complaint.
When dramas happen in our lives, we often feel so weak and so useless. Sometimes we also do reproach ourselves what happened. But we should certainly take into account that we don’t master such events which are totally independant from our will.
Accidents that happen like the tragic death of our beloves ones teach us a lesson about the fragility of life. That’s why we should try to enjoy life as much as possible, particularly when we’re young. We should try to be happy and satisfied instead of wasting our time on useless problems. Each day should be lived up as the last one.
The way the D12 members mention tragical circumstances in the song is quite philosophical. It teaches people how hard it is to survive in the ghetto.
Kon Artis shares his double struggle with us, how he had to fight to survive and to succeed for his family:
‘Its true that everybody heard, there mama say every days like this
When you see, one of your friends die in the mist
In the struggle, went through circumstances
Arrested every day just to prove a point to a friend
Even then, accidents are prone to happen to any man
A woman is dumb enough to pretend
That her, god won’t hold them accountable for sins
If they commit, they try to repent to ??
But I guess (thats just the way things go)
I was blessed to see 24 (24)
To wake up to that “Hi, my name is” video
Motivated me to write what i wrote
And I knew my little brother sold dope
An mom and daddy want to move our road
I did it, I still got a lot to prove and show
I just which we aint have to lose Bugz to the struggle
Cos you know…’
Bizarre expresses how much he misses his lost friend Bugz. But the part that can make you cry is certainly Kuniva’s part. He recalls when Bizarre told him the tragical news:
‘I came back on that tragic, my phone rung
And Bizarres voice tellin me, Bugz was gone home
It was like a knife piercing my chest and I couldn’t breath
I didn’t wanna accept it, didn’t wanna believe it
I swear with this weight dawg, I cried so hard
Literally, Denaun had to carry me to the car
While I stand in this booth now its tearin me apart
But I had to let it out cos it was tearin at my heart
Cos he died over somethin so petty and so small
A human life is so very precious I hope ya’ll
Understand how I’m feelin cos I love you bugz
I wanna rhyme wit you, laugh wit you, hug you bugz
But I can’t and you was so close to seein dreams
A coward came along and took you away from the team
So don’t mistake this track, its just another song
This goes out to everyone who lost a loved one
Cos you know…’
Swifty and Proof share the same pain. Their heart is broken.
We learn from Eminem’s mouth how Bugz died:
‘He got shot in the face twice, then run over by a car. It was over some stupid shit. He wetted this girl with a water gun and these dudes came over and got their revenge.’
As Swifty pointed it out, the D12 crew prays for Bugz before each concert:
” He’s still with us, tough. Before we go on stage, we pray and he’s right there, over us.”
If you took time to listen to the ‘Bugz ’97’ track, you probably noticed that Bugz had skills and a huge talent.
We miss you and we will never forget you. R.I.P Karnail Pitts aka Bugz.
Good Die Young

Dawg….I shouldn’t have left, They wouldn’t have tried this shit if I was wit ya

They say its never too late, to have an early childhood
If I could, turn back the hands of time, God should
Forgive what i did as a kid to run blocks
Now my dreams are just dream cops and gun shots
The fun stops when your homies up in a box
My dudey bole, rest his soul, snuffed by the cops
I use to ?? a lot, if theres a guy by me say somethin
If you love her so much why didn’t u gave nothin
When he took my homie, snuck was only in 11th grade
Now I hope to see your face at the heaven gates
It aint never late in the game, this hatin remains
With a grudge to see slugs straight through my frame
My heart aches with the pain, the life in his breath
We gotta have fun now, theres only minutes left
In the depth, distress young as a ??? did
To ??

When I was younger I knew four brothers that wasn’t wise
That crash and the driver died,
My partner on the passenger side was paralysed
And Im surprised by the look of that ride that the other peeps survived
Nine months later another one died
Somebody shot him in the side when he was startin up his ride
3 years go by, I made a hell of a run
And thats when funky got done, a joey playin wit guns
And ??, karty was my man
And reggy, I wish that I was wit you in that van
And Bugz if it wasn’t for you
You know I wouldn’t be standin in this booth,
Thats the truth, I miss ya’ll…
[Chorus x2]
They say the good die young,
Thats why I think that you should have fun (when your young)
Cos time won’t wait for noone (uh huh)
When god calls, you gotta go home (go home)
They say the good die young, (die young)
Thats why I know that we go’ have fun,
In this life cos you only get one
When god comes for me, don’t cry till I just went home

You may claim your rhymes to be so ill, but I’m the only one to be standing still
No need to swallow the pill to chill, I’m standing still
You ask why ? Dawg, no need to claim that I have the fame
Inside I got a burning flame but you’re a shame to the game
Calling yourself a villain, reaching you’re level of stupidity, look, it’s plain
You’ve been the prisoner of your own chain
No need to sound tragical, philosophical, rethorical or intellectual,
I’m a knife, I’m surgical and logical
I do cut fast, in no time your mouth gets shut.
Thinking you’re a dinosaur ? Man, just go and close the door.
Why should I kiss somebody I’m supposed to diss in an eternal torture and bliss ?
But even then, when i get wild, I have the decency not to insult your child
Man, I can face your fake ass attack while you’re trying to sell your whack track, come back !
I’m getting personal, I shoot at you (bang, bang !) with my arsenal
You soon gonna know who’s who cuz you all know I am true
Don’t try to sound so clerical, my attack is technical, antitheoretical, structural,
I’m breaking off the wall
I can hear the sound of your SOS calls.
You claim to be ill, but I know that I have the will
To lyrically kill a man deprived of any skill
Who claims to be as good as Cypress Hill,
Man, I’m standing still.
