Breedlove was best known for battle-rapping against Eminem in 8 Mile. He played a rapper named Lotto in the movie, facing off against Eminem’s B-Rabbit in the second round of a pivotal freestyle battle.

Before appearing in 8 Mile, he rapped under the name OX, landing a feature on the soundtrack to 2001’s The Wash starring Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg.
