Breedlove played Lotto, Eminem’s rap rival, in 8 Mile. Eminem played the role of B-Rabbit.

Along with Kim Basinger and Mekhi Phifer, the cast also included Brittany Murphy, Taryn Manning, and Evan Jones.

The news of Breedlove’s death prompted an outpouring of grief from his legion of fans on various social media platforms. Rest in peace, Nashawn Breedlove, or “Lotto” from 8 Mile, as one user called it. This man is the only one who can beat Eminem in a fight. Damn. End of an era. A third user said, “#RIPLotto #NashawnBreedlove he had one of my favorite scenes in that movie.” However, a supporter said, “RIP Nashawn Breedlove; I wish your family blessings.”
