Eminem appears to have upset Proof‘s son NASAAN as they now have clashing release dates.
Taking to X (formerly Twitter), the young rapper playfully warned his late father’s close friend: “@Eminem dropping the same day as me? i wouldn’t do that if i was you, UNLESSSS you wanna get out sold OG.”
He then urged fans to pre-save his upcoming project Error 404 which will drop on May 31, the same date Eminem has teased a new release, which is likely to be the first single from his upcoming album The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grâce).
NASAAN’s debut project, Error 404 is set to feature contributions from fellow Eminem associate Royce Da 5’9″, as well as Detroit natives Icewear Vezzo and BabyTron.

NASAAN recently released the first single from the project, “Goated” featuring Royce.
In the song’s accompanying video, NASAAN paid tribute to his late father by recreating a famous freestyle featuring Proof and Eminem from 1999 during an interview with MTV.
The D12 heir previously spoke about his relationship with Eminem, crediting the rap icon with supporting his music ambitions.
“So crazy cuz I feel old af (22) and get mad I’m not a megastar but then I’ll talk to Em and he’ll be like, ‘Man, I wish I was where you were when I was your age or that advance[d] musically. Shit makes me feel a lottttttttt better,” he tweeted back in 2021.
Em himself opened up about the devastating impact that Proof’s 2006 murder had on him in a vulnerable op-ed for XXL in 2022.
“[T]he thing happened with Proof and my addiction went through the fuckin’ roof,” he wrote. “I remember just after Proof died, I was in my house by myself, and I was just laying in bed and I couldn’t move and I just kept staring at the ceiling fan. And I just kept taking more pills. I literally couldn’t walk for two days when that happened and eventually my drug use fuckin’ skyrocketed.
“I had fuckin’ 10 drug dealers at one time that I’m getting my shit from. 75 to 80 Valiums a night, which is a lot. I don’t know how the fuck I’m still here. I was numbing myself. I remember a few months after Proof had passed, I was about to use the bathroom, and all I remember was I just fell over.”
“The next thing I remember was waking up with fucking tubes in me and shit, and I couldn’t talk. I couldn’t do anything. I didn’t understand where I was and what the fuck happened,” he added.
A few months after Proof died, Eminem wound up in the hospital following a drug binge that almost killed him.
“I was about to use the bathroom, and all I remember was I just fell over,” he recalled. “The next thing I remember was waking up with fucking tubes in me and shit, and I couldn’t talk. I couldn’t do anything. I didn’t understand where I was and what the fuck happened.”
Sounds like a gimmick play. If it’s real, don’t flatter
Yourself kid.
You realise he was joking right? Or did you get a headache trying to read further than the headline?
This culture vulture never gave a fuck about any black people. Eminem sold out d12 and acted black
first of all its not eminem and d 12, Eminem is a Part of D12, your comment tells your total brainless
You so obviously know nothing about rap. Eminem helped elevate so many young black rappers, on top of that if you look him up, he has whole charities dedicated specifically to young black men which he has donated millions. He is constantly fundraising constantly doing things for the hood in Detroit. A lot of young black rappers have come out and spoken about this. You just don’t know the culture that you’re claiming to try to be defending right now. Pipe down brother, because you obviously are not a true rap fan, to say such ridiculous ****
Oh, Gay Greg! Don’t you just wish your mom should’ve just swallowed you? #OVHoe
Okay? So? Why would a white man be expected to care about black people he doesn’t personally know? Do you care about people of other races that you don’t know? To be honest, I don’t care about anyone I don’t know, at least not enough to really do anything.
Ignore this mans, he’s too busy sucking Drake’s massive cock to listen to any real hip hop.
It was so big.
First off, Do any of you think that EM and the late Proof’s son isnt close. Thatb was his best friend Im sure EM is like an uncle to him. Thing is when these guys talk the whole world listens. This was just bannther between family it wasnt meant for everyone to have an opinion. Its like me telling my co-worker “you better not call in to work today you know im already taking the day off”.. But everyone gotta have an opinion, plus aint nothing like a lil friendly compition between family. You know Eminem loves this kid and would do anything for him and thats real.. i hope their album comes out at the same time and gives each other a run for thier money… good shit
Reading it the Kid is Telling the OG they drop on the same Day,
Ok man might rethink that move, LOL
I would find to unbelievable that these 2 are family ,for this cant be anything but Love
Come on young lion, Proof and Em were beat friends, your father wouldn’t approve of you being disrespectful. Em possibly provided for you and the fam after Proof’s passing. Be respectful!
