Obie Trice III was born and raised in Detroit, Michigan by his mother, along with three brothers. He is of African American and German descent. Trice was given a karaoke machine by his mother when he was eleven and he used it to rhyme over instrumentals from artists such as N.W.A. By the age of fourteen, he was attending rap battle spots around Detroit, notably including the Hip Hop Shop.
Obie Trice went by the name of Obie 1 during this time, but when he first met Proof, who was about to introduce him at the Hip Hop Shop, Proof asked him, "What's your name? Your real name, no gimmicks." He was then introduced as Obie Trice, and has kept his real name as his rap name. Trice was introduced to Eminem through D12 member Bizarre. Hot Rapper: Obie Trice. Rolling Stone. Accessed January 22, 2008. Later, Trice received a call from his manager informing him that he would be having dinner with Eminem, and later that night they went to a Kid Rock party.
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.
A short while before the first Invasion mixtape was released, he became involved in the Eminem-Benzino beef after being called out by Benzino with the line "Obie Trice/You's a buster" in a diss-track directed at Eminem and Shady Records. In response to Benzino, Obie released the track "Welcome to Detroit City" (a track over the beat from Cam'ron's song "Welcome to New York City") on the first Invasion mixtape. He also joined his label-mates in the highly publicised Ja Rule-50 Cent beef but never received a direct response from Ja Rule.
Cheers
His debut album Cheers was released on September 23, 2003 with its first single "Got Some Teeth" being well received on radio in a number of countries. He also released the songs "Don't Come Down" and "The Set Up". The album consists of 17 tracks with production from Eminem, Dr. Dre, Timbaland, Mike Elizondo, Emile, Fredwreck and Denaun Porter. Artists featuring on Cheers include Busta Rhymes, Eminem, Dr. Dre, Nate Dogg and D12 among others. The album was eventually certified platinum by the RIAA.
Second Rounds On Me
As of 2005 he has begun work on his second album, entitled 2nd Rounds On Me, which was expected later that year. Never making the 2005 calendar mark, Obie set sights on releasing it in 2006. Although the album will be released by Shady Records, it will feature a lineup primarily comprised of local Detroit rappers with decreased presence from Eminem and other Shady/Aftermath artists.
Shooting
On December 31, 2005, Trice was shot twice while driving on the Lodge Expressway by Wyoming Avenue in Detroit. One of the bullets entered his skull. Trice was able to drive off the expressway, where his girlfriend waved down police. He was taken to Providence Hospital and released later that day. Doctors are still contemplating whether or not to remove the bullet which entered his head, as it may be too dangerous to operate.
Leaving Shady Records, current situation
Obie Trice left Shady Records on June 26, 2008, because of a dispute because Interscope claimed they would not fund another Obie Trice CD. This news was first put into circulation by Hip-Hop blog Urban Lookout; a few days after they broke the news, a track (Giants) leaked confirming the rumor. Even though Obie has left Shady Records, Eminem's manager Paul Rosenberg says that Eminem and Obie are still close friends, and that Eminem will still work with Obie Trice on future projects.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Get the fuck
Get up, get up
Get the fuck up, motherfucka
Ayo, when I step up in the bar everybody hit the fuckin' floor
Lucky muthafuckas make it to the door
'Cause when I spit on mics, I spit raw
I keep the club owner vexed
'Cause he gotta pay me when I spit
Plus replace a lot of shit
Niggas get to wylin'
When my words echoes the room like
(Get your hand out my pockets)
You sock shit while my topics rockin'
I'm banned from clubs 'cause of my toxic tonsils
Loud speakin' like a fuckin sports announcer
I spit the Blaha 'til you rush the bouncer
Or rush the muthatfucka in your way who's bouncin'
You know O. Trice get the gats pronouncin'
Get live, muthatfucka, when I speak, muthatfucka
Out your seat, muthatfucka, I'ma reach muthatfuckas
Shady Records 'til I sleep, muthatfucka
Obie Trice, nuttin' but street, muthatfucka
Tear this bitch up until you bleed, muthatfucka
I wouldn't give a fuck who you be, muthatfucka
Punk, pussy, bitch or G, muthatfucka
Adrenaline rush before you leave, muthatfucka
When I speak I blow out your tweeters, a dog
Show out in speakers, roll out with heaters
I'm just a animal eatin' the game
Jungle monkey, fuck yeah, Obie's the name
I roll solo, never been a ho though
Keep gats vocal when cats act loco
Where you at when I'm movin' the crowd?
You get trampled, mashed on Detroit style
Up out your seats, pump out the E's
Off the beats, the crowd, "Obie, please"
Where my niggas at, smokn' them trees?
Off the Cognac finger-fuckin' a skeez
That's how it is when you party with me
You don't like it? You L7 like a square be
Get live, muthatfucka, when I speak, muthatfucka
Out your seat, muthatfucka, I'ma reach muthatfuckas
Shady Records 'til I sleep, muthatfucka
Obie Trice, nuttin' but street, muthatfucka
Tear this bitch up until you bleed, muthatfucka
I wouldn't give a fuck who you be, muthatfucka
Punk, pussy, bitch or G, muthatfucka
Adrenaline rush before you leave, muthatfucka
Yo, yo, yo
And since I came, I've rearranged the place with blaze
Stage dive with Colt Seavers, DNA
I'm so addicted to gettin' niggas lifted
Drunk off a liquid, O. Trice, the misfit
Dousin' the crowd with piss and bile
We underground, muthafucka, fix your frowns
I be the boy with a risky tour
Off of whiskey, you never been this geeked before
So, throw up your hands and peep out your mans when I come through
Next quarter Trice at your venues
And trust, I'm attackin' it
I cook up the hot shit like Ainsley Harriott
That's why I'm so miraculous and Obie gets you niggas pumped up
I'll see you next coliseum, chump
That's right, you come to a Obie Trice show fucked up
Off E's, drunk, weed
Get live, muthatfucka, when I speak, muthatfucka
Out your seat, muthatfucka, I'ma reach muthatfuckas
