Proof(D12) was shot Dead this morning...

Damn.
Thats a shocker.

He was the last person on my mind to get shot.

 

Man I've posting about this in the Hip Hop thread all morning and afternoon. I heard about it when I started work today

 

Dang, Obie Trice shot last December.
Proof dead.

Damn.

 

Another rapper shot dead.

This is news?

 

another rapper.

 

Detroit a rough city but the word is he was caught in the crossfire of a beef between two crews out in the D (Cheddar Boyz and Rock Bottom. Proof was cool with the dudes from Rock Bottom). This how some dude named Blade Icewood died last year.

 

Eminem with another divorce and Proof dead.
He must be in stress hell.

 

Obie got shot.
He didnt die though.

The bulllet is still in his head.

 

Sad news.

 

Yo mods move this to the Hip Hop thread cause I'm not having a bunch of dudes who know nothing about rap crack some foulness over a serious issue.

As far Em goes, the last 3 years you can tell he wasnt happy in life. The Benzino took a lot out of them and the fact those racist tapes came out and he lost his black audience it hurt him. And instead of endearing and taking it to the next level like MC's do he stayed making corny records (Ass like that, Lose it etc) and then after 50 pretty much his own protege took his shine and bullied his way through, he wasnt even happy in interviews. Then the additction thing came in and the divorce (Again!) now add Proof's death which is the worst especially when he warned on "Toy Soliders" that something like this would happen (and just like in the video it happened). The dude must be on Suicide Watch.

The only good thing is, is that he can use all this pain and make a serious and soul-baring classic Hip Hop album that everyone has been expecting from him since he got in the game.

But this aint about Em this is about Proof. He was a genuinely nice dude who loved the Hip Hop culture and to MC and repped his hood all the same. He never hurt nobody he got caught in the wrong place, wrong time

RIP to my ***** Proof. Its been a sad year for Detroit Hip Hop. First legendary producer J-Dilla loses his 4 year battle with the disease Lupus and then Proof a Detroit Hip Hop superstar passes away.

RIP

 

Obie's not dead fool. He got shot but he survived.

 

What does Nas got to do with this. If anything like he said in that MTV/BET interview, his collabo with Jay is to show MC's there's another way and Hip Hop culture to be shown in the white media. Jay and Nas are Hip Hop legends and I salute them for there unity

 

Man Bugz died a long time ago like in 97 or something. There were at a cookout and an argument happened in the parking lot and some dude pulled out his gun and blasted. Senseless **** but its a problem in these communities.

 

The last song of their last CD was about to Bugz.

 

I've already posted in the hip hop thread but RIP Proof. Luda hopefully no-one will be cruel about a issue like this.

 

Good Die Young, one of the few good tracks on it

 

This has to be a pretty tough time for Eminem right now. His divorce and Proof getting killed.

Just what do all these killings achieve? I'll tell you what they achieve. Not a damn thing. Some people take beefs a little too far and decide to take extreme actions, which results in senseless deaths. Look at all of the rappers who have been killed due to violence; I counted about 10, but there may be more. A few well known ones are:


Biggie Smalls- died 3-9-97
Tupac Shakur- died 9-13-96
Jam Master Jay- died 10-30-02
Soulja Slim- 2-14-04(I'm told)

Then others like Mac Dre, Big L, Mr. C from RBL Posse, some guy from U.N.L.V. based out of New Orleans and even more. It's just that some people take it a little too far and instead of being grown up about their problems and discussing them like men, people want to murder, which is unjustified.
