D12 split in 2018, with Eminem declaring in his solo song, Stepping Stone, that the death of late bandmate Proof in 2016 led them to call it quits.
He rapped on the track: "Cause the truth is, the moment that Proof died, so did the group."
The band formed in 1996 and group achieved mainstream success with its lineup of Eminem, Proof, Bizarre, Mr. Porter, Kuniva and Swifty McVay.
