Probably just being investigated he didn't actually do it

I think all of d12 were investigated too

Detroit is a crazy city. I remember when I was on the highway going from Windsor to Detroit, I end up getting off the highway and nikkas was selling drugs or guns from the back of a car at some gas station I was shocked how nikkas was getting down so blatantly out in the open in the middle of a sunny afternoon

I ain’t even gonna lie I ain’t know Proof was with the shyts like that

he was the most fun rapper to ever know and have as a friend and kick it with no bullshyt.
That i think about losing my best friend ever to violence.
Who i also shared a creative god given gift connection to.
I sometimes think about how em and anyone else who knew him.
feels from this lose to this day too tho.

City was his frfr.
proof was a highlight to being a grassroots draw in an inner city.

ain't went nowhere to see no other rapper.
who had it on lock in the city in the hood all over.
who was as funny.
or just hood personable fun as proof.

I miss that nikka frfr.

he would treat you like a person and still respect who you were from a culture standpoint.
won't ever be a bboy mix like him on earth again.
nikka respected you for who you were and we related on some Bboy shyt.
i still probably will not see again in my life.


miss that dude.

I been out every day as a club kid.
that one night with proof stands out.
against my most fond memories in real time and not revisited nostalgia from his passing or grief.

if you kicked it in Detroit with proof. It was gonna be a time of your life that night.
just in pure unadulterated fun.

I wonder what the timeline for this is.
when discussing thr real jd dilla.
simply because i am friends with the first half of the group.
dilla first produced for in born unknown.
the demo they had from xmas break they recorded.
is the best sample based production of any rap album ever made.
e's used to guard that tape with his life and let nobody borrow that shyt.

if he would have given me that shyt..

I would have dubbed that shyt with no question and still be rockin it to this day.

When I was a kid I borderline grew up around the corner from his block and all them nikkas especially proof were known for being wild which is probably half the reason em kept them around. It’s funny how the perception of them is vs the perception of nikkas who on now that used to get bullied in that same hood but got the audacity to sneak diss em repeatedly. I wonder how it would’ve developed had proof not died then
