Detroit, Michigan, United States (2000 – present)

Obie Trice is a rapper born in Detroit, Michigan, United States on November 14, 1977 to a single mother; Eleanor Trice. On October 5, 1998 he became the father of his only daughter, Kobie. He began rapping at the age of 11 and had a number of underground hits such as “Respect”, “My Club”, “Dope Jobs Homeless”, and “The Well Known Asshole” before he signed to Shady Records in 2000.

Before first major release, early years on Shady Records

As an acquaintance of D12 member Bizarre, Obie was signed after a personal introduction to Eminem allowed him to impress the Detroit rap legend in-person. The general public were first introduced to Obie on D12’s Devil’s Night album on a skit. His one-line opener (“Obie Trice: Real name, no gimmicks” - taken from his song “Rap Name” and referring to the lack of a rap pseudonym) on Eminem’s lead single; “Without Me”, off the critically-acclaimed and commercially successful The Eminem Show increased public awareness of his name and slogan. Obie also appeared in the video for the song, body-slamming a dummy representing Moby. Appearances on DJ Green Lantern’s official Shady Records Invasion mixtape series, allowed him to further his public recognition.

In 2002, Trice appeared in 8 Mile as one of the rappers in the Chin Tiki parking lot scene. Trice also has a featured appearance as Big Pimpin’ in the Detroit made independent feature film Life Goes On, which will premiere at the Cannes International Film Festival in May 2006.
