Eminem is old enough to remember when The Geto Boys were in their prime.

So he's old enough to remember the influence the Houston group and its member Bushwick Bill have had on the rap game.

Bushwick Bill died earlier this week of Pancreatic cancer at age 52.

Eminem made a relatively rare Twitter appearance today to pay tribute.

RIP to the pioneering legend and one-of-a-kind MC #BushwickBill
