-They have been around since 1990 and used to have Bugz in them before he tragically died. Then on May 21st 1999, at a small local island called Belle Isle where people go to picnic and party, Bugz got into a fistfight over a water-gun incident and beat up two men. After the fight, they shot him in the back and killed him. Bugz name is now tattooed on the forearms of D-12’s members. “That incident brought everything to reality,” Kuniva says, “and let us know that life ain’t no game and we gotta make the best of what we got while we got it.”

-D12’s original name was Soul Intent.

-He had trouble getting a visa to perform 2 shows in Australia in 2001. The Australian Prime Minister tried to keep him out, calling his songs “sickening and offensive.”
