D12, an acronym for The Dirty Dozen, is an American pop/hip hop group from Detroit, Michigan, USA. D12 success with album releases in the United States, United Kingdom, and Australia has been well documented within pop culture.

D12 were formed in 1996, and achieved mainstream success after one of its members, Eminem, rose to international fame.
D12 have had a number 1 ARIA selling album and single in Australia. Fast facts and stats:

Devil’s Night went on to sell four million albums worldwide and two million in the U.S. It featured the following hit singles:
