Making of the album

D12 member Eminem was the executive producer of the album recruiting Dr. Dre and Kayne West to produce tracks on the album as well as producing tracks himself. The album also features guest appearances by Obie Trice and B-Real. The album's first single "My Band" is a humorous take on the widespread, if incorrect, view that the band is solely a creation of Eminem rather than a rap crew that has been together since 1990. The tracks "Good Die Young" and "Bugz 97" on D12 World are also in the memory of Bugz, a former member shot in 1999. The album features a great deal of adult content and the Bizarre track "Just Like U" had to be left off the edited version of the album.
