this isn't just a rip on d-12, but ALL RAP ARTISTS. how can someone call themselves an 'artist' when all they do is start sh*t with everybody and represent their 'hood? that sounds like an episode of the sopranos to me, not 'music'. it also sounds like they realize there is nothing to their 'music' and are trying to create a lot of drama so people will have SOME reason to buy their records. Last, music is more than a beat, it is melody, which rap lacks greatly. this is commercial crap that they put out for people who can't discern good music from bad-whatever-this-is, and the record companies that put this crap out love you all for buying it!! progressive 4 ever-
