D12 made a surprise return near the end of last year with their latest mixtape, Devil’s Night, a sequel of sorts to their debut multi-platinum album that went by the same name. Their iconic rap style has branded itself in hip hop history and the group members have made themselves stand out as more than just “Eminem’s band.” Although Eminem laced an intro to the mixtape, Kuniva, Swift and Bizarre carried the mixtape and exceptionally showcased their evolution as hip hop emcees.
On their latest video for the track “Raw As It Gets,” D12 show what makes Detroit emcees stand out from everyone else in the game: lyrical wit. These guys take it back to 8-Mile cypher format as they kick bars back to back in a graffiti-laced skateboard park somewhere in Detroit. Their bars are filled with energy and demonstrate why Detroit is a city that no rapper wants to tackle.
This video features Lazarus, a buzzing Detroit-based rapper, who also happens to be a full-fledged doctor. D12 place Lazarus in the center of one of their most fiery joints and he proves that he indeed can hang with the best of them. Detroit definitely breeds lyrical greatness. All in all, let’s just say this video is as ‘Raw As It Gets.’
Check it out and let us know if you’re feelin the comeback.
