Proof, a member of the Eminem-fronted Detroit-based hip-hop sextet D12, was killed early Tuesday morning outside a Detroit nightclub in a shooting that left another man in critical condition.
Acording to a spokesperson for the Detroit Police Department, Proof (real name: DeShaun Holton) suffered a gunshot wound to the head at the CCC Club on East Eight Mile Road, near Gratiot Avenue.
 
That's not funny.
I intended no humor in my post so I suppose it's okay.

Call it racism or whatever you like but when you live a certain lifestyle you run certain risks. Sometimes those risks catch up with you. For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. It is an inescapable fact of life. Talk enough trash to the wrong person or people and someone will make sure that there are consequences.

I agree with that. Tupac's life ended tragically too soon, just like Proof's. I've been a huge fan of his music since 1995 or so, but became more entranced in the entire mystique of his life and what he stood for after he was killed. I could go on for days about 2pac and his legacy but I'm sure nobody here wants to hear it.
 
Gee - another wannabe 'banger got the 2Pac treatment.
Whatta surprise //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif

yeah well i be we-tar-did and don't read whole posts LOL

 
Proof had some good lyrics and some good songs. He was nothing amazing but definitely a loss to the rap community. I am no expert on this either, but from a few of the other articles I read, it didn't seem rap related but I dont know.... does anyone know if that is true or what?

He did not have much for major beef either that I know of... Him and Royce da 5'9" got into it a little... but he really wasn't a huge beef artist that was just asking to be shot. I can't think of any other people who had beef with him personally... and if it was someone who had beef with the group D12.... wouldn't they go after eminem?

anyways, still sad. RIP Proof.
