Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
D12, the Dirty Dozen, in fact only have six members, each having an alter ego. The six are all Detroit MCs, friends and workmates of long standing, who promised each other years ago that, should one of them make it big, he would return to help out his old buddies. Luckily for Proof, Bizarre, Kon Artis, Swift and Koniva, the word of the sixth member proved to be bond. Marshall Mathers a.k.a. Eminem did strike it big, and has returned. Anyone expecting just a couple of guest appearances from the busy megastar, though, will be surprised. Eminem is all over Devil's Night. He has a heavy writing input, performs throughout and produces eight tracks (four others being produced by Dr Dre), with the results being as crude, contentious, hilarious, stylish and silly as you could want. Taking the visceral comedy of Ice-T's The Iceberg, the sinister electro mood-music of Wu-Tang Clan, the idiosyncratic vocal deliveries of Digital Underground and adding their own immense lyrical tastelessness, D12 produce a canny mix of many of rap's finest moments. Highlights include "Shit Can Happen", with its Danny Elfman-style bass and an increasingly intense narrative that peaks with a shrieked "We are not playin'!"; "American Psycho", with its sweet piano and super-dramatic vocal; and, of course, there's the already notorious hidden track "Girls", on which Eminem rubbishes Fred Durst and openly threatens the life of DJ Lethal. --Dominic Wills

this is another hip hop album to remember from involvement of eminem he has brought his crew d12 this time though. This album contains catchy songs such as purple pills,thats how and Sh*t can happen. This is what makes this album such a top album for any music fan.This albums quality compares to albums such as marshall mathers lp and snoop dogg- last meal.This album has a serious side to it as well with songs like american psycho and fight music. The album is very comical and just shows how tight d12 are. Aint nuttin but music takes the mick out of alot of artists and if realeased off the album is set to look big due to its catchy theme! A MUST BUY ALBUM FOR ALL HIP HOP FANS!

This album is fantastic, well if you like Hip hop it is!! Eminem and his Posse have managed to produce an album that is quite possibly the best hip hop album in the world! It's definately the best I own! The other five rappers, Proof, Bizarre, Swift, The Kon Artis and the Kuniva are just has highly skilled as Eminem! These six rappers on one album makes for some top notch Hip hop! My favourite is probably Proof. As you might expect, the lyrics are What you might call contraversial and explicit, to put it mildly! But the important thing is not to take it too seriously.
My favourite track is probably fight music. Another one of my faves is Devil's night. The lyrics in all the songs just flow! Blow my buzz is also good, oh this album's just too damn good! This album is pure lyrical genius, if you like hip hop and you like Eminem then you'll love this!!!!!

This cd is perfect for people that don't like the Explict Lyrics cd's. It still includes hit songs such as Thats How and Purple Hills. It how a little of everything. At one piont the could be kidding around and just having fun, such as in Purple Hills. And at another time the could be dead serous, like in Pistol Pistol. This cd is diffenently on its way to the top. Eminem, Bizzare, Kon Artist, Proof, Kuniva, and Swiftly really worked together to form D12. This cd will keep you listning mourning, noon, and night.

Very good first album
D12's first album is very good since a lot of people had nerver heard of them before Devil's Night. This album was also popular because Eminem is part of the group. Read more
