Bizarre Takes Off The Shower Cap to Reflect On Battling Eminem


Last week I had the chance to go check out Bizarre tear down a packed St. Andrews in Detroit. I was very surprised that his stage show was very entertaining. Before his show at the historic St. Andrews I sat down with the D-12 rapper and discussed a bunch of topics. After listening to his new album "Friday Night At St. Andrews" I noticed that Bizarre was a little bit more serious on this album. He felt like he didn't want to go down in history as the Weird Al Yankovic of rap. He also told me about the time he battled Eminem, and we even discussed the recent tragedy of Aiyana Jones and the lost of his friend and fellow rapper Proof.

My time in Detroit was very eye opening to say the least. Bumping into Bizarre in the hallway of the luxurious MGM Grand Detroit, I realized that Bizarre is weird, but totally comfortable in his skin and he is love in Detroit like New York loves Biggie. After seeing his performance, I can definitely understand why.
Bizarre talks about stepping his rap game up and battling Eminem.
