D-12 is the rap group formed by Eminem and five friends in the late nineties. When the group still hadn't been offered any record deals after years of touring, they all decided to go their separate ways, with the first one to become famous promising to come back for the rest of the group. Everyone was surprised when Eminem was the first to be discovered.

Their first album to be recorded was "Devil's Night," named after the Detroit holiday which takes place the night before Halloween. The holiday began in the mid-1980s, and it became customary for everyone to wreak havoc on the city of Detroit on that night each year. In 2003, Devil's Night was the cause of 151 fires that were set in the city.

The group originally had wanted to be called "The Dirty Dozen," because they had hoped to do a western song, and all be outlaws in it. The name, however, was already being used by a jazz group, so they shortened it to D-12.

Aside from Eminem (Marshall Bruce Mathers III), the other members of the group are Peter S. Bizarre (Rufus Johnson), Swift (Ondre Moore), Proof (Deshaun Holton), Kuniva (Von Carlisle), and Kon Artis (Denaun Porter).
