After years of anticipation, one of hip-hop's most influential and unpredictable collectives is back with more. D12 officially announce their long-awaited new album, D12 Forever, arriving this summer, alongside the premiere of their blistering new single, "Tear It Down," featuring Xzibit and B-Real.
LISTEN Below.
A fearless reintroduction, "Tear It Down" captures the raw energy, irreverent humor, and razor-sharp lyricism that defined D12's rise while pushing their sound into bold new territory. The track is a high-voltage statement: Aggressive, unapologetic, and unmistakably D12.
Emerging from Detroit in the late '90s, D12 carved out a legacy unlike any other crew in hip-hop. With multi-platinum success, chart-topping records, and a cult following that spans generations, the group built a reputation for blending dark comedy, boundary-pushing storytelling, and undeniable chemistry. Their influence continues to echo across the genre — and D12 Forever stands as both a tribute to their roots and a powerful step forward.
Marking their first new single in years, "Tear It Down" signals a new era - one that honors the past while reigniting the chaos, charisma, and creative fire that make D12 so very legendary.
On the project, Kuniva offered:
"We’re stepping into a new chapter with D12 Forever, and it means more than we can fully put into words. There's a lot of history behind this name, and a lot of growth that's carried us to this moment. To the Dertyheadz who are a part of the Dirty Nation old and new. This project is for you. When you hear it, you'll feel that nostalgia, but you'll also hear where we are now creatively. The creative process behind this one pushed us in ways we didn’t expect. It’s raw, it’s real, and yeah…some of it might surprise you. But that’s the beauty of it. Growth without forgetting where we came from. We're grateful for the opportunity to keep telling our story, and even more grateful for the support that’s never left us. As we navigate this new era, just know we’re bringing you with us. D12 Forever."
While details remain tightly under wraps, D12 Forever is set to feature a lineup of collaborators that reads like a who's who of hip-hop royalty — with appearances from some of the most iconic and era-defining artists the genre has ever seen.
D12 Forever is coming June 19. The story continues…
