Eminem (L) and Proof perform together in Detroit in 2003.
Eminem has remembered his slain best friend and fellow rapper Proof during an emotionally-charged funeral service, telling hundreds of mourners packed inside a Detroit church that "without Proof, there would be no Eminem, no Slim Shady and no D12."
The service sheet said the two men shared the "friendship ofa lifetime."
Proof was shot and killed last week during an altercation at an after-hours club.
"You're the man," said Eminem, who served as an honorary pallbearer.
Friends and fans of the rapper lined up outside the Fellowship Chapel to get a seat for the funeral.
