Obie Trice

Real name, no gimmicks. This line from the beginning of the Eminem song Without Me is probably the only way most people have heard of Obie Trice. Obie is definitely a rapper in his own right though, he's three albums deep already, with his fourth, Bottoms Up, coming out sometime this year. These are two songs of his first album, Cheers. The Set Up is catchy andhas a dope beat, and Don't Come Down is a great song, the story of, and apology for, Obie's childhood struggles with his mother.
