One of the members of D-12 (Eminem's group in real life) Proof can be seen several times during the last set of battles at the end of the movie. Fist at the end of the battle with Lickity, and a couple times after that. Also, he's wearing a hat with the D-12 logo on it.

Listen close to Lil Tic (played by Proof)'s verse at the beginning of the movie when Rabbit chokes. He says: "I'll Punish Rabbit Or Obsolete Future" as you can tell by reading the capital letters in those bars, Lil Tic spells out his real rap name, PROOF.

Right after Rabbit finishes his last verse and waits for Papa Doc to rap, he sits on this speaker or something. If you look behind him, you would see "Sara Stokes" from the show "Making the Band 2" cheering (also known as the "ONLY" singer in "Da Band").

The car that Eminem drives round in during the film is the actual car that was given to Eminem by his mother Debbie back in 1990. Proof even gave it a nickname: The Stinkin Lincoln.
