I must say i never felt so bad in my life. Maybe because he was one of my fav rappers had no reason to be killed. It's not fair but then again it's not fair for anyone to go this way. I'm not going to lie i let out a few tears for this dog, loved every song from his and his meaning in most really got to me and to see him killed by getting shot in the back of the head is disgraceful>More information on that on MTV.

What i am please asking to atleast pay your respect even if you did know the man, thank you all.


R.I.P. Big Proof... :(

Who shot him? Where and when?

Yeah, a link to a news article or something would be nice.

Eminem got divorced, now he lost his close friend. Sucks for him.

^Yes, i feel bad for both Em and the family and friends of proof. This is a sad day indeed. Was shot in the head from behind. :(

Tell me about it.

Much respect for you Mwamba, much.

*blinks* Whats the world coming to? :mellow:

Good questioned :(

Then again, this kind of thing happens all the time everywhere. It's just that Proof was more famous then some kid from a neighborhood that all does crack and stuff. Doesn't make it any less tragic though.

He hardly did anything for the world,....

Dang. That's...Weird. Rough times for Eminem indeed :(

I am sorry this happened.

1. What do you know about Proof's personal life, Gladstone? He could've donated thousands to homeless kids in Africa.

2. I heard about this because I attend a rap forum as well as this and a few others.

3. Rappers rap about violence and then go to shady places even when they're famous, asking for trouble...still, he had his reasons.

4. At least Eminem is rapping again.

But he didn't, I've got his biography minimised here. It also says he did alot of breaking and entering when he was younger....

Sorry but that's stupid. Did nothing for this world? Do you know how many people he inspired. We already know you dislike rap but to say he did nothing to this world is a joke. And to say he was only a GANGSTA is also stupid. Here tell me listen to these songs and still tell me if he was nothing but another guy shot dead. It's extremly sad to see him go since i'm a big fan and i will miss his music very much.

Forgive me

[Proof]
Barely raised by my dysfunctional fam
Here I stand as a dysfunctional man
Quick-tempered, short-fused, and pissed at God
Demons pullin at my soul 'til it's ripped apart
Secret's out momma that fire I started it
(Insert bad word) the fireman logic of the closet by the wire (Insert bad word)
What's positive about a father that bust nuts then wussed up
And a momma that don't show her son enough love
(Insert bad word), that's why I run from my first son
And force these chickenhead bitches to get abortions
I'm married to game, my mistress is fame
My girl Paq the closest, she know I ain't gon' change
Go insane in a world evil as ours
I done shot at houses, people and cars
The deeper the scars, the worst is the history
God you ain't gotta forgive me, just don't forget me, you hear me?

[Chorus: 50 Cent]
Lord forgive me, for I've sinned
Over and over again just to stay, on top
I recall memories, filled, with sin
Over and over again.. and again

[Proof]
And most importantly I'm tryin to support my seeds
Can't seem to get away from them courtin fees
Embroidery, on my hood across my heart disorderly
Breakin in houses of people who ain't got more than me
Accordingly, I move in error
Gotta face the fact though I can't fool this mirror
Neglected my daughter and tryin to blame on how I was brought up
like I'm a product of this environment, why ain't I shot up?
Got up today like "Why you let me breathe again?"
And with each breath I feel death is creepin in
Thinkin sinners are winners and I'ma finish last
My pen and pad record my life as each minute pass
Passin minutes, I shook sin and shook drugs
I did right by you but still you took Bugz
Then caught me in adultery, fought me
for not knowin through the dark streets you walked me, talked to me

[Chorus]

[Proof]
It's the bliss that's a rush so rush my wrists in the cuffs
It's like a fight for yo' attention and love
Speakin of Bugz, give me a hint from above
If he not you know I wanna be sent when I'm done
Kid outta wedlock so my lady's frontin
I love Em, cause he gave me somethin
A positive anything is better than a negative nothin
I was on the edge of death ready to jump in
It's hard when you can't find love anywhere
And just because the reverend listen, don't mean he care
Pops on crack with a sufferin past
I dream in black and white, the world color me bad
Other than sad, painful and stress
Life is good with the webs that, tangle with death
Control the border, control the school
I have sinned amongst men and my soul is yours, yours

Kurt Kobain

[Proof]
I put my soul through the ink
Bless a path with thoughts at my thoughts
Before I grow extinct
My back-bone disowned by zone
Why roam? called home
But now on I'm all alone
Just Proof, no shine, no friends, just fans
No wonder my hands, tight where the Internet ends
I take back most of the flack
The stress smokes, press me close to the crack
Like my pops, the ghost of my past
Dime and mud, JD and stucky
Lately I'm lucky, I don't hate me to touch me
Maybe I'm ugly inside, but smiling to make it
I love you dawg, and that's how ever you take it
The fame is a illusion, I'm still loosing
In this game, with the rules and..
I feel clueless, the streets with the hills blue less
Cops knocking at the door, got me looking real foolish
But I still do this, like I love it, even though I thug it
Keep flossing lights in public, the subject y'all don't know
Stars won't grow, who would dream that scars would show?
Minus the MTV videos with slim
"Up In Smoke" D-12, and many shows with Em
It's still me dawg, no change for change
It's strange, when it pours it rains
I take it back..

[Chorus]
I wish I could take it back, I wish I could take it back
But it's too late
I wish I could take it back, I wish I could take it back
But it's too late

[Proof]
Always talking to snuk coke and he speak back
Wish my first son was here to reach at
Feeling detached
My brother Earl, and Wayne, that bail money for jail, y'all can keep that
I've been in deep before, ask (stalemen?)
My hearts melting, tell the truth, I need help man
I hearts big but by sins bigger
(Insert bad word) the world, I don't feel like I can win niggaz
It's like I'm lost and I find only demons
I wanna quit, its like I'm tired of breathing
So my stress confess to a famous song
Em I love you, don't let this money change us dawg
1st born, when I'm gone, grab the sign
(Leave nothing?) with his cream and his mom
And dear mamma, I use to hate you
Now I relate to, everything you did to make proof
I love you..
Take it back

[Chorus]

[Proof]
All y'all see is Free from 106 and park
Yall don't know I risk my heart with this apart
From the streets, the groups, the friends, the foes
The jewels, the dick lickers and the hoes
What about me?
Sheltered with no guidance
Look at the finest, royal highness on some hot (Insert bad word)
Still living with the liquor and bud
Sometimes I wish for my demise, so I can kick it with Bugs
I wish it was real between us all
In the past, you should of seen us dawg
I die for Em and save Haley, brave maybe
But just let them tears remove my grave Shady
Kunive and Swift, how live is it get?
I meant to teach y'all niggaz to survive in this bitch
If we die to be rich, that makes me happy
And on another note, (Insert bad word), don't hate me pappy
It's just that we look the same, you let the game take you
Your son game along and took the game
Since I took my own life, y'all feel a killa fo sho
Bizarre on the real, your the realest nigga I know
Strapping and busting ain't real, just tell your mans the truth
And that's why you've always been friends with Proof
Answer to all, I've always lied with truth
And before I pull the trigger tonight, I'm proud of you..

Fair enough, his music may have inspired people, and given people pleasure.


But I am just saying, there are thousands of other people out there, who I would rather...."grieve"...about.

Well that's your way of thinking i guess but i grieve for him since he had a big impact on me...

Hmmm... Like toy Soldiers.... Hmmmmm..... Two guys were shot dead, the other guy died without the media glare; good, bad, you decide....
