Obie Trice went from no one to someone in the rap world really quickly when Eminem signed him to Shady Records and executive produced his debut. Born in Detroit, on the west side in the Schoolcraft and Greenfield area, Trice began his rap career humbly. He dropped out of Cooley High School in the early '90s and began making ends meet, which wasn't too easy in the cold, abandoned streets of Detroit. His turning point came in 1998 with the birth of his daughter, Kobie. Shortly afterward, he took note of Eminem's breakthrough success in 1999 and began to have faith that he too could make it in the rap game despite living in wayward Detroit. Trice had begun rapping at a young age. His mother had bought him a karaoke machine that he used to practice his rapping, making tapes of himself over the beats of Run D.M.C. and Big Daddy Kane. Over the years he improved his craft remarkably, releasing street tapes that began to generate some buzz in the local underground scene. These recordings came to the attention of Eminem, who in turn called up Trice for an audition, and it was all smiles and handshakes from that point on. First came a plug on D12's Devils Night album ("Obie Trice [Intro]," 2001), then features on The Eminem Show album ("Drips," 2002) and the 8 Mile soundtrack ("Love Me," "Adrenalie Rush," and "Rap Name," 2002), and finally Trice's album debut, Cheers (2003). — Jason Birchmeier
