"It was like the first time, without Marshall, we had recorded something in like six or seven years."The chemistry was right there again. We never lost a step. I think a D12 reunion can definitely happen."Early in 2014, the "Detroit Free Press" published a profile about producer Mark Bass's ("Without Me," "Lose Yourself") upcoming projects.
