the latest HATE on Hip-Hop TV, Movies and Music Videos
Proof - "Gurlz Wit Da Boom"
Posted on September 21, 2005 8:56 AM
Eminem's flunkie Proof has a record deal of his own!
After years of washing Eminem's drawers and playing 3rd fiddle even when there were only 2 people on stage, D12's Proof finally has a solo record. Based on his new video single "Gurlz Wit Da Boom" [watch it now] it's quite likely that even his own fans would rather see him back in Shady's shadow and/or huddled up with the rest of the D-Tweezy cattle.
Giddy up, bitches!
In honor of the young NFL season, Talkin Videos' "Parade of Touchdowns" continues. I guess retardation is hereditary. Is that his pops on the intro? I guess the drool doesn't fall too far from the slobber bib, huh?
Before we even talk about this horrendous video, I must say something that I'm surprised I've never heard anyone say about this man before: Nigga look like Rasheed Wallace drug-addicted brother. (Not counting weed... that's not drugs! hahaha)
Seriously, why aren’t the REST of the Village People in costume, Mr. Construction Worker man? You need to dig yourself out of this pigeon-hole you got shoved in, lackey! If you're gonna be a Village Person on your own video set, you might as well be the one that you dress like already, I guess. We could let Bizarre rock the Indian feathers. (They're Native Americans though. I only say "Indian" because I think his official artist name was "The Indian")
You would think a label associated with Dr. Dre wouldn’t put out such weak sh--… Stop... Wait… Reverse the tape... *rewind noises* is he even on Shady Records? Of course it's not. He's not THAT well-respected!
Didn’t another Detroit MC already heavily allude to “BOOM?” Oh yeah... that OTHER dude who fought his way out of Eminem's shadow... Royce Da 5'9"! At least he's a talented MC.
Proof is like the famous cat you still don't wanna be seen with in public. Lookin like Biz Markie replaced steak sandwiches with crack. While there's no doubt he could clean up 7 Mile Road and take a ton of skanks to a video shoot with him, there's also no doubt that that's exactly what he DIDN'T do here. These gurlz with boom made a fuckin crater in his wallet. Payin for hoes... It's the rap video way, people!
This video is worth a spin once. The Proof is in the pudding. Seriously, the nigga can't get his face out of the cooch. You finally get your shot and you come out with "Gurlz Wit Da Boom?" Obie Trice came much harder after waiting in the wings for much less time. He even had better low-cost videos. Speaking of Obie... He shoulda had Proof in the "Got Some Teeth" video. What the fuck is wrong with this nigga's grill? Reminds me of zipper-mouth from Czar-Nok.
Pimp tight, hoes!

I gotta guess that the hard hat is to prevent any more massive, gaping head wounds like the one that affected the creation of this song and video.
Someone definitely needs to tell the man that he ain't gonna gind Jerry Garcia in the crack pipe or the heroin needle.
He also needs to stop going to the same dentist as Jermaine Dupri.
I always had this idea in my head that Proof was a good MC, but strangely enough, I have yet to hear any real proof of that idea. He looks like he reads on a 2nd grade level, and coincidentally, raps like it too.
At least sample Digital Underground on the hook dammit.
And Ron, 'the fuck made you get up early to review this one?
Actually, I might have lost sleep over this mess too.
When's Proof is on the couch talking to the girl he looks like Dave Chappelle. Word!
I knew he had a resemblence to somebody. Now I know why I always expected to hear a Eminem joint while watching a Pistons game. Anyway the video is the same _______(insert Charlie Brown's teacher's voice). I think he needs to change his name from Proof to the Mad Hatter. He's quitting the rap game to become a hat model.
You know why you never see him without the hat...it's the gaping head wound.
Maybe he wears the hat to cover his matching little Rasheed bald spot.
Whoever was sitting around thinking about which D12 member to give a deal to next needs some better weed... "Hmmm, D12 seems very talented, let's give the fat one and the basketball player record deals! He sure looks good standing next to Marshall!"
Can you picture Memphis Bleek sitting at home smiling while he watches this? "Man, I'm not the wackest sidekick of a legend anymore!!! I at least get a free Jay song on each one of my albums."
Proof just gave 2 Big MC(Hammer's hype-man)all the incentive he needs to come back in the game.
P.S. Even a free Jay-Z song can't help Bleek get over.
Remember c b w, he's one hit away.....from having one hit.
Jay should just start a Rocafella little league t-ball label. That way Bleek would feel at home, because everyone gets a chance to hit in t-ball.
We both know damn well he'd strike out even if there was a beach ball on the tee.
But excellent observation! Haha....
I even have a soft spot for Bleek, but the truth hurts.
Dirty,
That statement was colder than a Chi-town winter wind. Although he should just join the Young Gunz and take some of the weight off of Young Chris. Bleek is like the Cato Calen of hip-hop, he is Jay-z's famous houseguest.
Now that we're totally off topic...
I've grown to like Neef better.
I'm tired of waiting for Chris to become consistent. At least I know I'm gonna get a heartfelt verse from Neef Buck... even if it's horrible... and surprise! Sometimes it isn't!
I feel like I get the complete opposite from Chris.
To tie this back to Proof. I've had the same notion in my head Dirty. I felt like I was SUPPOSED to like Proof, mainly because Eminem pushed him so hard. But I've never heard him really do anything besides make sure Eminem is set up nicely.
He IS a funny motherfucker though. I think he realizes that in the realm of pop culture, he can't be much more than a clown-ass rapper.
I'll give it to you Proof is funny, but if you really think about it, how seriously could you take Proof when all he is a part of is a lot of goofy shit. Purple Pills, My Band, c'mon man. How seriously can you take Spliffstar? He's great with Busta, but by himself could you take him seriously without expecting him to do some goofy shit? This is the Hypeman dillema.
Yeah he's funny, but so was Skee Lo, lookin like Money B's twin with dwarfism....
Dirty, you a funny dude...."I wish I was a lil bit taller, I wish I was a baller......"
On the flip side of things shouldn't the question be...How many hypemen have made the jump from sidekick to main attraction?
Thanks C B Dub, I find this to be a positive outlet for my demented mind, keeps me out of trouble...
That being said, you raise an excellent question. I'm drawing a blank. Sure, Royce put out some shit, some of it quality, but doesn't sell.
Spliff Star has been 'hyping' his own album for a long time, but I'd say chances are good it won't ever see the light of day.
Street Life, Meth's stagehand put out a nice lil mixtape, but I wouldn't expect any plaques for him any time in this life.
I guess Bleek has kind of been Jay's hypeman at times, but we've dumped on him far too much in the last 24 hours, so I'll spare him a little and just say he hasn't had the sales that maybe he would like.
Scoob and Scrap, Big Daddy Kane's boys, THANKFULLY never put out anything. In fact, they wouldn't deserve any mention if they weren't so terrible (actually I think only one of em rapped, but was bad enough for two) that they make a deaf man's ears bleed.
DJ Twinz, Redman's hype clones/DJ's have fucked around and sold some beats to a lot of MC's, some successful ones at that, but does having beats even count as main attraction-dom?
Sad that those are the only one's that came to mind after 5 minutes of thought. You're right, the game needs 2 Big MC.
Another question then arises, if the hype man actually gets some shine, and goes to perform, who becomes HIS hypeman? Do all crews have third and fourth string hypemen just waiting for their shot at finsihing bars? Does the hypeman have the ingrained hyping skill to be his own hypeman, and if not, do the third and fourth string hypemen go exponentially down in quality of hyping abilites?
Fuck it, Proof should form a crew with the above folks, call themselves 'The Hypemen' and go from city to city filling in for good rappers as celebrity guest hypemen. I think there might be a market for it. Skee Lo's down.
I have a hypeman/dancer that came out of a respected camp that had a album out and 1 video. In fact I remember a group of hypemen/dancers that had 2 videos out and a album. See if these two names go oops upside ya head. Steezo(used to dance for EPMD)"It's My Turn" and Zhigge "Toss It Up". Useless knowledge is a muhfucka ain't it?!
2 Bigg MC... excellent!
Scrap and Scoob... damn.
Honorable Mention:
Freaky Tah
FLAVOR SLAAAAAAVE!
Sen Dog
You are leaving out a major hypeman-turned-pro...
Jay-Z (Jaz-O's former hype man)
Daz started out as Snoop's hypeman, and he's one of my favorite rappers and producers.
...and the list goes on.
Damn!!!!! You are right! Muthafuckin Jigga....I couldn't see the forest fore the trees on that one.
P.S. Shout out to Steady B's hypeman and partner in crime(literally) Cool C.
Send Steady B commissary.
Mixtapes welcome.
Wow, can't believe I forgot about the Jaz/Jay days, especially after that recent debacle that was the Originators video.
My forgetfulness aside, with this new information about Jay, at least we now know the answer concerning the third string hypeman and their related abilities....I really hope Bleek doesn't frequent this site, I'd feel bad.
How the fuck did I forget Flav?
Flavor is KING of the hypemen.
I feel bad for Bleek in general.
He seems to have all the heart in the world... everything you'd need for mainstream success...
and limited talent to say the least.
Now he's rockin the JD look. They about the same height too.
I too hope he doesn't read this shit. People that work with him behind the scenes probably do though.
I didn't forget Flav, I just felt that he did not warrant any dissing because his comeback isn't based off of any musical works. His position in PE was to offset the serious content of Chuck D. Chuck=Ying/Flav=Yang(I don't mean them coonin' ass twins). Flav is the exception to the rule. He knows he isn't a "serious" MC or rapper. He is a personality. And I am not mad at him for getting that VH1 money. He's probably making more than the real hypemen that are employed right now.
Yeahhhh Boyeeeeeee!
i hope so... because he has been publicly exhumed as a crackhead and sucker for love
...of crack.
(I don't know why PE had all that anti-crack talk... actin like there wasn't a basehead in sharing the stage with them)
'911 Is A Joke' and his ability to be a functioning crackhead (no hate) make him deserving of any and all types of success that come his way.
Free CEB!
I don't know Ron, with the top hat, the clock around the neck and the obvious looney behavior, maybe they were using Flav as a walking public service announcement against sucking on the glass jimmie...with endless entertainment to balance him out of course.
Flav was the walking embodiment of the "what-not-to-be-like" nigga. Night Of The Living Baseheads was Chuck D's open letter to Flav to stop rocking the glass cock. That stunt he pulled with Brigitte and PE was the equivalent to Clayton Bigsby taking off his hood.
hahahahahaha
Six Degrees of Memphis Bleek: what about Bleek's sidekicks? If Bleek is third in line, what does that make... well, how about Geda K? How would you like to be Geda's boy? Now you are fifth string...
At least Bleek named his crew correctly, Get Low aka we all will be getting low wages.
Or Get Low aka Get Loot On Welfare....you know damn well them bums aren't in Jay-Z's will
A sidenote: the fucked up thing is that I just realized that chorus to this disaster of a song has been running through my head for two days now....
The hook has been running through you mind because you might remember the original by that girl group Le Tigre.
P.S. They are in Jay's will he just don't know it.
Yeah, he's gonna be mad when he gets to that page with their surely misspelled names written in crayon...except they probably put the decimal in wrong and got themselves 10 bucks each
Addendum:
Get Low will come up on One Gazillion Dollars.
_____________
Signed
Get Dough...oops! Get Low
yall be on each others pipes....get a life homo ass niccas
you all forgot someone else big. 'Pac used to be a kinda hypeman/backround dancer/guest rapper for Digital Underground. Greatest MC ever, doing the Humpty-Dance...with the gumby haircut. the horror. But i guess he made the jump, he ended up being bigger than DG, and going from guesting for one verse on their song, to them guesting on his, which was much bigger.
But comparing all of these people to him is...insulting to the memory. I mean, Bleek got clowned on by...who was it...cassidy? lmao. the one person in the rap game shorter than Bleek still clowned him on wax...
But i guess then again, one is looking at Murder 1, and the other is...sitting on his ass on a leather couch in Jigga's crib, playin some preview version of Xbox 360 or something. guess Bleek won in the end
"I mean, Bleek got clowned on by...who was it...cassidy? lmao. the one person in the rap game shorter than Bleek still clowned him on wax..."
Haha, well said
Sha, you aren't a member of Get Low by any chance?
not a chance. im not tall, and im not rich, but im not that short, nor am i that broke. And i think it was Young Buck that had some beef with Bleek too...weird, someone that has never put out anything amazing has so many rappers that hate him.
I bet there is an opposing crew to Get Low...made of rappers who don't like crappy music. So they want to hurt Get Low before they come out. Call it Pre-Emptive. Call it Bush-Like. Just as long as i never hear anything called "Get Low Debut CD"...
Bleek gets residual hate because cats don't want to spit directly at Hov without some type of retaliation. If he wasn't with Hov would anyone really care?
yes. because his rap style is...insulting to some people. but true, he gets jay's bounce off. but if that was the case, wont dont people like, jump on young buck or lloyd banks.
well...thats cause fiddy cant shut his mouth, but yeah. i do get where ya goin...
