Proof is Dead
 

Proof was shot dead at 7am this morning.

Proof was, in my opinion, the most talented member of D12. He was the most probable member of D12 to carve himself out a sturdy career if the group went belly up. He will be sorely missed in the rap world, and I just hope that he is not forgotten and disregarded as 'that one from D12.' He was a supremely talented rapper in his own right and deserves much more than that. I just hope he gets the recognition that he deserves and he doesn't fade away and get used as another excuse to target rap and its links with violence.

WOW, that sucks, never really liked D12, but still a big hit to the community

I never liked D12 either, but I appreciated Proof as a rapper and realised that he was a fine lyricist.

Damn that does suck...I heard he was best man at Eminems wedding, they obviously must have been pretty close.

**** man that sux! he was a cool rapper.
to manny crazy ****s out there these days....

R.I.P. PROOF

2 of detroits finest gone this year.

RIP J-DILLA AND PROOF

Gone
 

Proof was probably the one D12 rapper who had the most potential.
Eminem got his skills from this man!!!!
HE WILL BE MISSED***************

Most hazardous job in the world?--Rapper

Bodyguard for a rapper. They've had more bullets than John Prescott has had hot dinners.

Eminem says -

Thats about the time I first met Proof with Goofy Gary on the steps at Osborne handin' out some flyers.
He was doin some talent shows at Centerline High, I told him to stop by and check us out sometime.
He looked at me like I'm out my mind.
Shook his head like white boys dont know how to rhyme.
I spit out a line and rhymed birthday with first place,
And we both had the same rhymes that sound alike.
We was on the same ****, that Big Daddy Kane **** , where compound syllables sound combined.
From that day we was down to ride.
Somehow we knew we'd meet again somewhere down the line

RIP Proof
