Eminem's Detroit crew D12 want listeners to know on their debut album that their artistic license use is not reflective of their personal beliefs. The soon to be released Devil's Night, opens with a caveat to warn audiences that if certain words offend them, they should not listen to the album. Group member Bizarre shared some of Devil's Night 's subject matter with MTVNews. " "I say that I'm picking up transvestites on my Harley-Davidson in one of my raps, there's no barriers. You can't say that we're faggot bashers, you can't say that we like gays, you can't say nothing about us, 'cause we're not scared to trip on any subject. How can we hate fags with Bizarre saying sh-- like that? It's all in fun, and that's how it should be." Dr. Dre, Eminem, DJ Head, and D13 member Ken Artis all did production work on the LP. The Dre-produced track, " Ain't Nuttin' But Music" bashes a variety of celebrities including Whitney Houston, Jesse Jackson, Baha Men, George Michael, Everlast, and others. The group has been together since 1994 and they made a pact that whoever got signed first would come back and help the others. Bizarre says they will be in the studio later this week to begin work on the follow-up to this album. They plan to release one album every year from now on. D12 will go on the Warped Tour next month and venture overseas in late August.
