Emlékeztek még Eminem bandájára? a D12 re ? mi lett velük?

On August 31, 2018, Eminem released a song titled "Stepping Stone" on his album Kamikaze. On it, Eminem announced that D12 was officially broken up.[6]

2018 08 31-én megjelent Eminem Stepping stone nevű darabja a Kamikaze lemezen, amiben egyértelműsítette, hogy D12 hivatalosan is feloszlott.

Azért fordítottam, hogy érthető legyen.

Azt írja, hogy a szóló karrierek elindulása miatt oszlott fel, de ez csak egy wiki, nem tekinthető hivatalosnak.

D12 nagyon alulértékelt banda volt. A szóló karrierek sokkal több sikert hoztak mindenkinek.

2005 végén House of Blues DVD-n már nem volt rajta Eminem. Elvonón volt, mert rászokott az altatókra.

Ugye 2006-ban volt a gyilkosság Proof-ot lelőtték Detroit-ban. Proof meggyilkolása Eminemnek is nagyon fájó pont volt. Switfty ezután már nem nagyon volt spann Eminemmel. Kuiniva addig sem volt Eminemmel annyira jóban.

Leállt a banda működése. Már előtte is 2 évig "csak" turnéztak.

Eminem elkezdett szólózni, meg másokkal együttműködni.

2008-ban jöttek újra össze. Eminem nélkül kiadtak egy újrakevert albumot.

2011-ben jött a Return of the Dozen vol. 2 és ebben már egy számban részt vett Eminem, de csak "vendégként".

2012 elején Bizzare lelépett, kiszállt. Nem sokkal később Mr. Porter is kilépett és szólózni kezdett. A csapat már csak 4 emberrel működött.

Kuniva 2012 augusztusában azt nyilatkozta, hogy még visszatérünk, nincs vége a csapatnak. (Eminem nem volt már képben).

2013-van nyilvánosan, Twitteren kérék mr. Portert, hogy jöjjön vissza egy album erejéig, ő annyit írt: "nem fog megtörténni, sajna tesó". Ezzel vált egyértelművé, hogy itt már nem fog összeállni a régi banda.

2014-ben akartak egy új albumot kiadni.

2015-ben sok számot felvettek és kiadtak egy újjabb mixtape-et a következő tagokkal: Lazarus, King Gordy, Royce da 5'9", Bizarre, Swifty McVay, Kuniva & Mr. Porter.

2017-ben már mindenki szóló albumba kezdett, de nem volt kimondva, hogy vége a bandának. A többit meg #1-ben leírtam.

Stepping stone -ban minden benne van. Azt kéne még lefordítani.

Ezt már nem fogom lefordítani még csak ilyen slendrián módon sem, de berakhatod egy google fordítóba:

"Stepping Stone"

Take me to the river

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

It's 2002, everything was totally new

We were globally huge, watching sales go through the roof

We wrote and we feuded, Runyon Avenue soldiers included

A multitude of homies who would bounce for no good excuse

We were so bulletproof wrote, souped and soaked in our youth

Thought we was running shit 'til we lost the sole of our shoe

The death of Doody broke us in two

We were thrown for a loop, ain't none of us know what to do

And at the time I was going through my own struggles too

So I wasn't in no condition to be coaching us through

Everyone tried to go solo, really nobody blew

I was hoping they do, so I ain't have to shoulder the crew

The plan was put everyone in position so that they knew

How to stand on their own, and I don't wanna open up wounds

I just noticed that oomph was gone when we go in the booth

'Cause the truth is, the moment that Proof died, so did the group

Shoot…

If I could leave this all behind

I could open up my eyes and walk in a straight line

Down to the river with you

Help me leave this all behind

I'ma wash away my sins

I'ma rinse away this dirt

I forgot to make amends

To all the friends I may have hurt

I better stop and say my grace

From it I pray that I don't fall

'Cause on the way back down I may

End up running back into them all

I never meant to use you all as my stepping stones

It was never the same, and it's bothered me since

And the farther we drift apart, the more awkward it gets

The more time goes by, the more life happens

And we gotta be men, we got responsibilities

Plus we don't say how we feel

And I feel like this is what got us in the debacle we're in

Been with you guys thick and thin

But it's almost as if sometimes we're not even friends

Which reminded me Biz, "Rockstar" was the shit

Y'all coulda got you a hit without me on the shit

If you woulda put D12 on it, wish I coulda did

More than try talking you into coming up off of it

I know it wasn't my fault, but part of it probably is

I think of all of the trips to BET

And the rappers I wish that we woulda politicked with

Maybe y'all coulda clicked and got you some features

But that's water under the bridge

But I'm washing my sins in it 'til my conscience is cleansed

If I could leave this all behind

I could open up my eyes and walk in a straight line

Down to the river with you

Help me leave this all behind

I'ma wash away my sins

I'ma rinse away this dirt

I forgot to make amends

To all the friends I may have hurt

I better stop and say my grace

From it I pray that I don't fall

'Cause on the way back down I may

End up running back into them all

I never meant to use you all as my stepping stones

Bacardi and Hen', never thought the party would end

One minute you're bodying shit, but then your audience splits

You can already sense the climate is starting to shift

To these kids you no longer exist

Went from rainin' cats and dogs in this bitch

To tiny drops, little drips

And by the time your reign is over, you'll hardly be missed

You start thinking of all the artists you dissed

All the carnage you left, is this the kind of karma you get

For turning your fucking back on Bizzy, Kuniva and Swift?

A Freudian slip, subconsciously, I honestly wished

I ain't feel so much guilt and y'all didn't harbor resentment

But it's hard to pretend that y'all ain't got none

I just wish I had words, but I guess there just are none for this

To my partners, I can't say how sorry I am

This is not how I planned for our story to end

I love all of you men

But I just can't be the guy everybody depends

On for entire careers 'cause that's not even fair

I will always be here, but that spark isn't there

And I don't know how to recapture that time and that era

I've tried hearkening back to, but I'm fighting for air

I'm barely charting myself

Feels like I'm on the descent, but it was not my intent

To treat y'all like a stepping stone

Though I ain't left no one behind, but we been down every road

Done all we possibly can, I know we kept our hopes up

But the longer we spend living this lie that we live

The less is left for closure, so let's let this go

It's not goodbye to our friendship, but D12 is over

I'ma wash away my sins

I'ma rinse away this dirt

I forgot to make amends

To all the friends I may have hurt

I better stop and say my grace

From it I pray that I don't fall

'Cause on the way back down I may

End up running back into them all

I never meant to use you all as my stepping stones

I never meant to make you feel like my stepping stones

I never meant to use you all for my stepping stones

“Stepping Stone” is the latest in a series of songs apologizing to people who have been negatively affected by Em’s career. The previously released “Headlights” and “Bad Husband,” apologized to his mother, Debbie Mathers, and his ex-wife, Kim Mathers, respectively. “Stepping Stone” is dedicated to Em’s rap group D12.

Boosted by Em’s personal achievements as a solo act, D12 was thrust into the limelight. Their two albums Devil’s Night and D12 World debuted as number one and went on to sell millions of copies. However, the group faded after the untimely death of group member Proof in 2006.

A ‘stepping stone’ is a term used to describe a means of progress, and in this song is used to refer to how D12 wound up being an unintentional career boost for Em, while the rest of D12 were eventually left behind. Notably, in the last verse, Em states that D12 is finished, and the group is now officially disbanded.
