Kuniva and Kon Artis were previously part of Da Brigade. Bizarre, Eminem, Kon Artis, Bugz, and Kuniva were recruited to join the group. Eminem was formerly in a group called Soul Intent along with Proof before leaving and forming with D12.Eminem's success persuaded Proof to establish D12 on a more permanent basis in early 1999. All of the members of D12 have aliases and Eminem chose Slim Shady as his. Bizarre was named Inner City Entertainment's 'Flava of the Week' and Proof won a free-styling competition run by The Source in 1998.However, it was as a solo artist that D12 member Eminem found success. Several members began making names for themselves in hip hop during the late 1990s. The group was a loose collective in the vein of Wu-Tang Clan.
D12 (aka The Dirty Dozen and D-Twizzy) was initially formed in 1991 by Proof who invited local Detroit rappers such as Bizarre, Eminem and other members who would leave the crew before it achieved success including Eye Kyu, Killa Hawk and Fuzz.
