WEB Entertainment was a music company, also known as a record label, based in Detroit, Michigan. It was started by two brothers, the Bass Brothers, in 1992. This company is most famous for helping a very well-known rapper named Eminem at the beginning of his career.
Before Eminem became a huge star, WEB Entertainment produced his first two independent albums: Infinite and the Slim Shady EP. An independent album means it was made without a big record company. After these, Eminem signed with larger labels like Aftermath Entertainment and Interscope Records.
Even after Eminem joined bigger companies, WEB Entertainment and the Bass Brothers continued to work on many of his albums. They helped produce songs for his major albums, including The Marshall Mathers LP 2.
WEB Entertainment also worked with other artists. In 2003, an artist from Detroit named King Gordy released his first album, The Entity, through the label. In the same year, a power-pop band called The Romantics released their album 61/49.
In 2010, WEB Entertainment released a short music collection, called an EP, by a deaf rapper from Detroit named Sean Forbes. His EP was titled "I'm Deaf" and included a music video. This video received a lot of positive attention from people across the country.
