PROOF HELD THEM TOGETHER | D12- How Come (Reaction)

[@Thanos1908]

This song and "stepping stone" pretty much say it all about how D12 fell out.

[@Sunny-jz3dy]

This was at the beginning! It wasn't until after Proof was killed that they really went separate ways! But they didnt have a falling out! Things just weren't the same after Proof was gone. D12 was Proofs baby...he was the leader.

[@hwyl7736]

When the music stops - d12. Their best overall song.

[@paulsample4064]

Every single verse in this song hits deep, on some real life shit... Such a classic!

[@kingjefe763]

Proof was hanging out in the city like he was a regular dude. I asked him one night I saw him at the club, I asked him why are you here? He said, why wouldn’t I be? This my City. Proof was Detroit through and through.

[@zimriel]

Who run it? Actin like you don't know. ... the answer was always, Proof ran it.

[@LauraMcClay]

D12 under the influence

[@rikcoflores5588]

This song was so iconic for me i had a fallen out with a friend use to blast this song 😅

[@hasshumba1761]

I can relate 😅

[@Mr.C.88]

This whole album was fire!!!!

[@chriscastro721]

This is such a great song!! I have this D12 CD. Song is off the hook. I love that you are reacting to this! RIP Proof. You kept everyone together

[@CarolinaPride95]

Off the hook 😅😂

[@crazizzle85]

I've always felt this song is a double. On one side, it's about conflict within the group. But also, I do think the verses refer to others as well . Proof's verse is rumored to be about Detroit legend Esham.

[@food223]

this one always hits hard because if proof was still here i wonder how different things would be, proof wasnt just an amazing rapper but seemed like a good person despite his flaws

[@dandieabbott5409]

Bizarre done a song it came out a couple of days ago and he gave a lil diss to bumzino. Proof was definitely the glue that kept D12 together. Dunane and Bizarre was at a lions game with Em a Few weeks ago. Stepping Stones is such an Amazing Song. I love this song too. Thank You for reacting to How Come. Redo Infinite if You want to.

[@mickeymizell894]

Great song, great reaction. This hit home.

[@j.coreyplestina234]

7:48 Denaun also worked at Gilberts Lodge and lived with Em and Kim (and Hailie) if memory serves me right. He produced beats for Em in exchange of rent, and Em even slept on the couch and gave Denaun a bedroom so he could use it as a "studio" where he had all of his equipment set up. Upon his first time meeting Dre Marc Labelle said “Yo, Denaun did “Just Don’t Give a Fuck”, he did “Low Down, Dirty” [Dre] was, “Yo, that’s my shit! That’s the reason we’re here!”. You may have already known that but if anyone hasn't, you're welcome lol

[@5.7.0bassin2]

Man brought me back for sure when this came out I was in my teens 16 or so and my good friend/brother I went to juvey for a lil and I came out and he totally changed and this song just rang through crazy how relatable it is

[@5.7.0bassin2]

Shit 2004 I wasn’t 16 lol I was like 14 maybe 15

[@Nick338422]

D-12 = underrated

[@Beth-y9b]

Omg this is so wicked! I've never seen this battle before. I'm glad we have turned Karen into an Eminem fan 🙂. Hope you're well soon, Cliff. Big love to you both 🫶❤️

[@christophercoyle65]

beat is hard asf

[@MichaelSBraum]

Ca$his WAS a part of D12! He was added around the same time that Bugz and Proof were killed. Em also added Bobby Creakwater and Obie Trice. But the ones you know of are the OGs!!!

[@Pack-Man199]

A lot of people don’t know about the version of this song with Bizarre. But honestly cutting him out was the right thing to do for the integrity of the song for the video version.

[@EduardaMoniz-ft3ps]

This is my favourite Song by Eminem

[@ridingwiththerams]

The hardest verse Mr Porter has ever spit. One of my favorite D12 tracks

[@itsakittyting]

FINALLY🥳 this is the only D12 song that never left my playlist - great reaction Cliff!

[@j.coreyplestina234]

3:40 Cliff, what Em meant was Proof made a full time nonstop job out of making connections and earning his reputation in Detroit hip hop, hosting battles and anything to advance the culture and was highly respected. Meanwhile, Em was working 9-5 (steady job) either at Gilberts Lodge cooking or at Little Ceasars and would do hip hop before or after work. Like when Proof cleared out most of the crowd at the hip hop shop (not sure if that was the opening scene in this video) and had Em come in to a smaller audience to test himself cuz he was not confident at the time, Paul was in the crowd for that performance and met Em for the first time. And the rest is history...

[@SteveSimp93]

There is an extended version of this song where Bizarre and Swifty have a verse to end the song

[@Pack-Man199]

This man knows what’s up 👆🫡

[@lamella64]

this might be the best diss against eminem lmao

[@Psychophilia]

there's a track on the Longest Yard soundtrack, by D12, called My Ballz. I always wanted to see like an animated video for it, it's such a visual track

[@melvinevans9981]

Bro. Thanks for bring back memories rip proof yes

[@Cconkyy]

Wow I just showed my daughter this song yesterday after not hearing it for YEARS!! What are the odds u react to it so soon 😂

[@Elvis78erKiez]

RiP Big Proof ❤

[@hayley4978]

Great breakdown. I love this song but have never understood it like I do now. Thank you ❤

[@rasheemjohnson6739]

This song is relatable af

[@deefire4836]

Finally!! My favorite D12 song since I was a teenager. ❤❤ Keep up the great work Cliff!!

[@yumaplayingcards6345]

It’s nice to see reactions from someone in the game. Good stuff.

[@Sunny-jz3dy]

That's why he was the unofficial Mayor of Detroit! Proof knew everybody & they knew him! lol He made the connections and pushed Em when he needed it. Thankfully these guys got there ish together and stuck together! Sadly it just wasnt the same after Proof was killed! They all went there own way...& people were still asking about D12 ..thats when Eminem finally came out with Stepping Stone. Bizarre came out & defended Eminem over this Zino crap! lol

[@JT_for_Three]

“ I don’t go by P/ I’m Coleman young “ One of the old Mayors of Detroit. # RIPBIGPROOF

[@seangotti3]

Proof low-key had the best verse 💯

[@SnailHatan]

Gotta check out “King Park” by La Dispute! Amazing storytelling

[@TimelordGGs]

I need to go back to that album asap, thanks for the reaction Cliff, you do have a big heart

[@anetteandersson2778]

❤ thanks . As usual you explain so I understand ❤

[@divedeep8489]

lolololol at 4:02 when you paused it looks like em is Edward Norton saying " we dont talk about fight club"

[@Jim.Weigandt]

oh i saw now in this video that proof has "proof" tatto on his arm the right one, but eminem has Proof on his left arm exakt same text and flames! so must be homeage to Proof! Love it

[@brettherman3354]

Bagpipes from Baghdad!!

[@klennethavancena940]

Eminem ❤❤

[@brandonking144]

Have you done hellbound, many ppl miss that song

[@royrogers495]

I love Hellbound, such a sick flow

[@bushidobot8251]

This was on D12 World, you definitely had to have known it better back then

[@jonassrensen4341]

Man. This hit me deep. Love you Cliff ❤

[@eastsidemonster2180]

Such a good song

[@drittzz9245]

This song is about Royce right? This came out around the time Royce was dissing Em and D12 if I remember correctly. Great reaction as usual

[@leemac1774]

I remember hearing that too, never heard it be confirmed though

[@leethebaldguy9390]

Its about royce. "You ran the streets i 9-5 it Royce 5-9

[@The_Gerry_Man]

its was never confirmed, and in fact proof and em did fall out at one point

[@The_One_In_Black]

If Em's verse was about Royce, it was fictionalized, because he mentions things from before they met. I usually see it claimed that Em and Denaun were talking to each other and Proof was talking to Royce.

[@CSpad]

Nah bout Proof

[@bhoy1989]

❤

[@SoullessGingersnaps]

I forgot this song existed! Thank you for this reaction Cliff! 💚🤗🍀 Could you please react to Girls by Ren? Thank you for all that you give to us!

[@Justicetyga]

HOW COME FINALLY!!!!! Yes Cliff!!

[@laurenbrinkers5890]

Royce

[@amoghsundararaman4657]

This song is one of my jams, so relatable

[@christinamootispaw6482]

Never listened to Denaun’s verse in this till today… man Kim you did all that tho

[@fransinyard891]

Good morning sunshine! I love your reactions! Much love from Henderson Ga USA

[@Len_M.]

It would be difficult since Em didn’t really have “parents” so proof was all he had and his one uncle but he self deleted.

[@zimriel]

and later on, Dre.

[@Len_M.]

@@zimriel definitely! And 50 too, along with Paul.

[@laurabeaver4387]

You haven't done toy soldiers!! When you watch remember it was recorded before proof died x

[@nickwpearce]

Never lend money to friends even after 25+ years I won't trust anyone every again just constantly betrayed 🙃

[@ryanfromm715]

This song dropped in 2004

[@Bomber7o2]

You need to do DJ Kay Slay - I'm Gone with Eminem and Obie Trice. An overlooked diss track.

[@ryanfromm715]

You should react to “When the Music Stops” Eminem and D12 off of The Eminem Show.

[@AdamBonitatibus]

You should react to proofs mixtapes, im not even talking about his amazing album searching for jerry gracia. He has underrated music that no one reacts too!

[@victormd5171]

Cliff you should react to Forgive me by Proof featuring 50 cent!!!

[@ShadowCreeper91]

Big love Cliff 👊 please can you do American Psycho 2 - D12 ft B Real

[@jessicacastro7824]

Hey everyone

[@nickjanssen166]

I say this on every reaction to this song. Hopefully someone agrees with me one day. Am I the only one who hears N64 golden eye music in the instrumental?

[@The_Gerry_Man]

you should listen to some proof tributes by d12 Kuniva - Light It Up (Lights Out) Swift - Guardian Angel Kuniva & Swifty - My Why and Heartbroken

[@cr9477]

I think this song is about kim and proof.

[@javieralejandroholguin4146]

Love this song. Please check out Git Up by D12!

[@JohnnyZBeatZ]

🥩

[@jessicacastro7824]

#like 0:25

[@buddah1221]

Richard by Obie Trice and Eminem if you haven't heard it stop reading this and go listen

[@joshuastickley2796]

Damn I don't think I've heard of this one so glad to see it for first time here!

[@joeltherealone]

Early Early

[@grabielrosales]

Another banger!!

[@CountryRebelBoy]

Hey you should check out Brodnax, been woke and where im from, both of these songs are disses to the same person.

[@FrancisAbeelen]

#Algoboost

[@bhoy1989]

Have you done eminem - till i collapse.

[@jaz-n-aries7000]

I love this song

[@azonicds]

Please do Bizarre feat King Gordy - Justin Bieber

[@josephmodglin3829]

Is this about royce or nah? I can't imagine eminem would ever make a diss towards proof but i also know during this time royce was jealous of D12

[@bryanmaeser]

Never actually confirmed but very very possible and rumors ran at the time he released this.

[@dannyboy6326]

It's not a diss

[@bryanmaeser]

@dannyboy6326 I do agree oops I meant to say that too lol more of a friend addressing the issue.

[@Pwalton84]

I always thought Em's verse was ment for Royce?

[@HangingwithMonica]

His uncle died before he met Royce I do believe. His uncle passed when he was still a teenager, he didn't meet Royce until he was in his 20's

[@randallrobinson-wx3dj]

D12 Your "Not Gangsta" was about Royce. Please react

[@slimjim5265]

I've always loved this song since I was a child man, proofs still one of my favourite rappers to this day, its crazy

[@CREEKERMARIAH]

😊❤

[@crayzielaygz]

I like you to react to The Rap Game by D12 feat. 50 cent.

[@ericbeck7200]

Thank you Cliff

[@nate6382]

I seen the other day that ca$his gave you a shout-out in an interview and commented on him Bumzino blocking your video live stream with your girl

[@zimriel]

he's addressed it

[@alankeenan1454]

Wtf you been at cliff do d12 just like me -its only bizzare on the track 😅

[@tomazroses6022]

🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥. R. I. P BIG PROOF. 🤘🏻

[@Kingzpackaz]

The definition of an original hip hop MC is the artist who did it all.. I.e .... Rap, break dance, graffiti, making own flyers and Cd cover art, writing, battle the whole lot. Alot of people don't understand that Eminem did all of listed above plus more. Also good to watch CASHIS shouting you out in interview

[@harleyjevisser]

You have missed a bunch of new upchurch songs man also yelawolf just released some fire!

[@shaynemcgurthy8532]

Just fyi you make my day better sir. You Crypt, Shaq and Knox.

[@RandomRichZ]

Em looks so young!!

[@AIcaneXRapper]

Can you react to my song? It's called, Ben The No Neck

[@khornebloodgod2137]

I hate this song, but for you to break it down, ill listen 1 more time .

[@bryanmaeser]

Wow why would you hate this especially with all the history involved with all the artists? I'm genuinely curious not like you can say it's bad writing or bad beat..to say you hate it is extremely strong verbalized form of dislike without any explanation as to why.
