Editor's note

Obie Trice, the Detroit rapper who kept it unvarnished

A Shady Records protégé whose straightforward style never got polished.

For his Detroit sound, check 'Hoodrats.' For that Shady Records era collaboration, 'Yo!' with Nate Dogg still hits.

He came up as an Eminem protégé in the early 2000s, but his writing always stayed grounded in a straightforward Detroit style. Songs like 'Snitch' sparked conversation that lingered, while tracks like 'Yo!' with Nate Dogg showed he could work within the Shady Records circle without losing his edge. His catalog, from 'Cheers' to 'The Layover,' maintained that consistent, unvarnished approach.

He put out his first album 'Cheers' in 2003 after coming up in Detroit. Through the 2000s and 2010s, he kept releasing music like 'Second Round's on Me' and 'The Layover,' working with Dr. Dre and 50 Cent along the way.
