First off, I’d like to say a formal goodbye to Proof. I ask for a moment of silence if you could spare it.
This song and video are too damn ironic for my liking right now. However, this is one request that I will honor immediately. In memory of Proof’s life and work, we’ll watch Eminem’s “Like Toy Soldiers” [watch above] together.
Sadly enough, word is that the beef that took Proof from us may have been rap-related. That compounds my sadness exponentially. To think that something once so pure and lovely as the music of our culture could take lives this way is mind-numbing and makes me sick to my stomach.
Toy Soldiers. What a colorful term for the phenomenon, huh?
Eminem gets his point across about his artists. Even more important, however, are the listeners. We are the ones who are called to action by what we hear. Biggie and 2Pac were able to take a personal squabble nationwide. One mention of his daughter sent Eminem into a rage the likes of which we’ve never seen from an artist that usually invokes his lyrics to incite the masses. 50 Cent used his fan base to blacklist Ja Rule almost entirely.
The toy soldiers aren’t just behind the microphone waiting for checks from Tommy Mottola. They’re sitting in front of their computer screens right now looking for something to be angry at. They scour media outlets ready to rush to the defense of their favorite recording artists. Many take their enlistment far more seriously than they should.
Something’s got to give. That’s why we do what we do here. These lyrics ARE powerful. This imagery IS “that serious.” Once again we've been deceived into underestimating our own power. Now, it's being used against us as a people. I wholeheartedly thank the select few of you that see through the jokes and truly understand that we’re trying to do something special for our culture here.
Proof, we miss you already.
Regardless of what you thought of his music, this is another brother we’ve lost… and quite likely over some dumb shit surrounding a culture that we should be in control of. Let’s take some action and responsibility as listeners. Let Proof not have died in vain.
My condolences and best wishes go to his family and friends.
Stay up, y'all.

WHY IS NIGGAS SHOOTING EACH OTHER?
that scene with proof in the hospital... shit gives me the creeps
good blog Ron...rip proof.
First off, its "Why ARE niggas shooting each other".
Second, this genre isn't even a delight to listen to anymore. Any given moment one of my favorite artists can have his/her life taken over some nonsense? It's pathetic and it's bullshit...from here on out, I can't fully support this music anymore.
Im done defending it when outsiders try to bash the culture over shit like this.
Fuck you Ron you fucking hypocrite
Hate killed proof
He died cause of haters like you that cant stand someone making it out the hood
You same one that criticize 50 for not going back to his hood and chill there
Jealousy is a motherfucker and you are a jealous motherfucker
Hip hop don’t kill people haters do
R.I.P. PROOF
A highly underrated and highly respected MC who did his best to use his fame to help others. From a man who left an lasting impression on everybody he came into contact to, to someone who repped this hip-hop culture to the fullest, a HUGE void is now left to be filled, especially in the Detroit hip-hop scene. People forget that this hip-hop of ours was started to avoid all of the violence that is/was happening on the streets, but now especially with the commercially dominated "Gangsta" rap, it is spilling once again over into the music. If we don't use this art form to push positivity into the minds of our youth then it is a never ending cycle. Proof was vital in trying to empower people through the music to focus your talents on the lighter side of life.
I got family in the D now and they have said it really has been crazy for the past couple of years, kinda like it is in LA right now, just senseless violence and killing. Can anybody from Detroit comment on that - WHAT IS HAPPENING ON THE STREETS RIGHT NOW THAT KEEPS THIS VIOLENCE GOING?
And please everyone remember that besides being a respected performer, this was a MAN who had 5 KIDS THAT LOST THEIR FATHER in a way TOO many of us are familiar with. Keep his family in our hearts and prayers.

Word has come out that apparently proof
& a bouncer were arguin it turned into
an altercation with proof throwin tha
bouncer to tha ground & shooting tha
bouncer in tha face then apparently
right after proof shot dude another
bouncer shot proof twice in tha head
twice in tha chest & tha bouncer that
proof hit is gonna die so it seems
that proof murdered this bouncer &
a another bouncer shot proof in ret-
aliation it all prolly happened real
quick I guess it's better to die & go
out poppin then spend ya life in prison!
Just what I heard don't know whats what
You're so near-sighted Shakeem.
If you put this much effort into other things in life, you wouldn't be in front of a computer all day chasing behind everything I say.
Your blind love for 50 Cent made you the first person to try to ruin a blog dedicated to a fallen brother. Good work. 50 is proud. I'll tell him and Em you did a good thing today.
...and I wasn't going to say anything about it... but I'm doubly appalled that you used Proof's death to promote "Blood Money" yesterday on one of the other blogs.
That is a disgrace. Not even 50 nor Mobb Deep themselves would ask you to do something that despicable.
Now get your head on straight and have some respect for a brother we've lost to senseless conflict and misguided street politics... not blog commentary.
It’s funny how yall quick to switch up someone finally dies off the hate you guys created
You haters be one here all day hating on people that made it out of the hood, saying oh he soft he cant go back to his hood, he’s not real he don’t chill in the hood, well guess what this is some of the stuff that can happen when “keeping real goes wrong”.
Ron you fucking hypocrite just last week you was criticizing mob deep for going with money so they stay the hell out the hood this week you fucking preaching make up your fucking mind you fucking loser
this is something that has been to commen in our world, when are we gonna learn from our actions and realize we need to change our way of thinking. We support drug dealers that poison us and pimps that exploit our women. we want to blame other people when in fact we are destroying ourselves. This is a man whose kids will never see their father again and grow up with hate and anger and keep the cycle going.
it's really weird watching this video 2day...
Mr.Ronaldo,
Despite what any1 else says that might be negative, I appreciate the way you presented this.
It is true that this death is BIGGER than hip hop but one has to reflect on the irony of it. A "rap-related" death of a rapper who didn't rap about guns and violence...
Everyday, everywhere, in suburbs, rural areas and inner city streets...
BLACK people are dieing 4 nothing!
Rest in Peace 2 Proof and countless others who die nameless over a series of nothingness...
Real Talk, Ron....Good Shit!!
Very sad situation...
R.I.P. Proof
Most of your blogs are about hate if you wanna stop the violence in hip hop
Well you can start by stop hating
Shakeem...I think is bout time u have a big ol glass of Shut the Fuck up!!!!
I can understand why i nigga would want to keep it real and stay around the hood...and in the same breath i can understand why a nigga would make it big and never go back...its a catch 22...u stay, everybody say "oh he keep it real and he still in the hood" but u gone have niggas that still aint got shit and think you just in the hood stuntin and gonna want to take what u got...and its niggas that make it big and see that shit and will never go back....
Exactly Dana,
I'm in Asbury Park NJ and shit is crazier out here now than it's ever been...Shit is just out of control everywhere....This problem is much bigger than Hip Hop

first off RIP to Proof, i knew him personally and he was a very cool down to earth person i will miss him dearly...not on the other hand for the person who wanted a comment from someone who lived in detroit...detroit is your typical big city. everyone who thinks detroit is very violent...its not that is jjust what the media portrays...they always show the grimiest neighborhoods and anything that happens in detroit or surrounding cities is reported on national news as detroit. we have our fair share of violence don't get me wrong, but i've lived here my whole life (27 years) and have nnever personally witnessed any type of violence i think we as a city get more negative attention than we deserve
Hey Shakeem, how about you post a picture of you somewhere so I can tear it up like I do to all the other cats on My Spot. I'm also reading Detroit news hearing about how Proof shot someone first, then was shot himself--I don't know the whole story and I might say "R.I.P. Proof," but dude was looking to take a life, too, so everybody needs to get the facts straight before we all start handing out consolatory massages in memory of Proof. Shakeem, you have all the enthusiasm of a TV evangelist--sad fact is that most of us change the channel on you fanatics... I *hate* Shakeem--DJLL
Proof was wack.
He provoked his own death.
Thumbs down.
Em sucks too.
Exactly Dana,

This young man being killed is tragic but his death as well as the many others
associated with rap music is an indication of what corporate America
has done to hip-hop. What was once an esteem building culture with songs like
U.N.I.T.Y by Queen Latifah and Fight
the Power by Public Enemy to name a few
has been changed into a self destructive
genre with our women being portrayed as whores and men being only concerned with
money, expensive cars, jewelry and getting as many whores as they can.
In addition , instead of referring to
black men as brothas or cats or even homies we now refer to them as the n-word. As much as some people try to downplay the n-word if you really take a moment to think about it When you think of the word brotha what image comes to mind? Now when you think of the n-word what comes to mind?. I'm sure
the two images are way different.
When I think of the word brotha I think of my friends that I went to junior high school with back in the day and its a pleasant memory.
When I think of the n-word I think of
violence and abuse that blacks have
suffered and the brutal image of Emitt Till in his coffin comes to mind. I think of black men hanging from trees in
the rural South.
There is no way to redeem the word it
has a long history of being used to destroy black people and now we are
using it against ourselves.
As much as I have enjoyed rap I can no longer support it because it is currently betraying us as a people.
It is making a few black individuals rich but it is eating away at the fabric of our culture.
We need to take back our art form by
boycotting the companies and artists
that are poisoning are community with
violent mysoginistic messages and images and support only the artists who
support us by representing us in a more
positive light.
When I read some of the posts on this blog written in "ebonics" it really makes me sad because as a parent i am concerned with what is happening to our
kids. My wife is a teacher and sometimes when I am helping her mark students papers I see some of the same
type of absurd spellings. These kids
are absorbing all this junk we adults
are letting happen.
We really need to stop and take a look
at what's going on and try to make some
changes.
I'm sure others will follow this post
and think I'm not cool or hip for writing in proper English and my views on the current state of hip hop but
everything I do and say in terms of
how I conduct myself is based on being a
good role model for my son. Now if more
black people felt that way we would
be a lot better off.
YO I AM THRU WIT THE RAP GAME
THE REASON IS THAT MY MC SKILS ARE SO NICE THAT CATS WANT TO KILL ME NOW
I USED TO LOVE MC BATTLING BUT I HAVE TO ASK MYSELF NOW IF I WIN THE BATTLE WILL I GET SHOT IN THE HEAD.
I AM USED TO BATTLING NIGGAS BYMYSELF BUT SINCE PROOF GOT KILLED I WILL ONLY BATTLE WIT MY NIGGAS WIT ME.
NIGGAS IS HATING LIKE NEVER BEFORE AND U RAP NIGGAS IS FLOSSING LIKE NEVER BEFORE.
FLOSSING = ENVY HATE THEN MURDA!!

It is what it is,, i am not in any way condoning violence of any sort, but it happens everyday,, we should be concerned everyday with what goes on in our communties but we don't do anything about it. It takes something like this to happen to even have a discussion of this magnitude,, next week it will be back to the same ol nonsense about who is dissing who,, I am for impowerment & education. Let's just do the right thing & stop talking about it,, peace to all my brothers & sisters in the struggle

olice say dead rapper Proof fired first shot
Associated Press
Detroit — Rapper Proof fired the first bullet in a Detroit nightclub shootout that ended his life, police said Wednesday.
The bullet hit Keith Bender, 35, in the head, critically injuring him early Tuesday at the C.C.C., a bar in a strip of businesses along Eight Mile, the road made famous in Eminem's movie of the same name.
Proof, whose real name is Deshaun Holton, was taken to a nearby outpatient treatment center by a private car, where he was pronounced dead.
Detectives are currently trying to figure out who shot Proof, said Detroit police spokesman Sgt. Omar Feliciano. He said his office was told by homicide detectives that Proof fired the first shot at Bender.
Feliciano said no further information has been released.
Proof, 32, was a member of the rap group D12 and was the best man in Eminem's January wedding. Eminem was seldom seen in public without Proof.
Police said officers responding to 911 calls about 4:30 a.m. Tuesday found the bar empty when they arrived.
Bender also was taken to a hospital by a private car.
Police Chief Ella Bully-Cummings said Tuesday that detectives don't know what Proof was doing at the bar, which was operating outside of its licensed hours. Investigators face a unique challenge because no victims were present at the crime scene, Bully-Cummings said.
Police have said that an argument between two parties at the club escalated into gunfire.
___________________________________
SOHH needs to create a blog for the other guy, not Proof who brought that shit on himself, I ain't trying to be mean but he started that shit; even the cops agree, Tupac; Big were murdered, Proof was shot in self defense, i for one will not be listening to any of his shit.
I'm just waitng 4 those know it all journalists 2 start rearing their ugly heads in light of this drama, Bill O'Reilly and that "Good Nigger" Stanley Crouch, are probably writing from their on the outside looking in perspective.
Shakeem, that was foul 2 promote Mobb's new shit on this blog, U should do us all a favor and take a break from this blog with your G-Unit propaganda, because that's what it is B.
I am That Dude & I support this message.
50 gonna ride for Proof.
GGG-GUNIT gunplay all day!!
50 Cent is the GOD
50 Cent is the MAN
All bow down to the Mighty 50 Cent.
50 Cent is running this bitch.
Proof is gone now and it looks like he pulled the trigger his dam self wtf wtf
50 gonna put all fools in they place.
GGG-GUNIT!!
gerald you speak the truth. Things are going to get a lot worse if people carry on the way they are at the moment.
Hello Everyone, I am new to this blog, but I feel a need to comment. Yes this is a major problem in our culture, however, I can't really by into the whole, its bigger than hip hop mindset. Hip-hop is the main way to relay messages to the youth. nowadays the message is smoke weed, pimp hoes, ride big, fuck the world, takeover the hood, smack a bitch, sell heroin, sell crack, do your time, kill anyone that violates, etc... This is not bigger than hip hop, it IS Hip hop. The things that are happening are directly related to what is happening IN hip hop. I one of those people that has almost gave up on hip hop as a whole. I make beats now, no more rapping for a long while, at least until the content becomes more positive. I don't even want any of these fake thugs rapping on my ish. One more thing... I am also tired of ALL these fake as rappers like, GAME, Lloyd Banks, yayo, Busta and down the line. These niggas are quit to come out talking that RIP ish, and how terrible this is, but on they next single they gon be back to being the hardest, richest nigga on the planet that while murder anybody who violates. FUCK THIS IM OUT!!!
Shakeem, grow up. May i ask how in any way what so ever Ron was being hypocritcial? Or don't you know the meaning, because every time i've read you using that word, its in the wrong context. On another note, fuck you Shakeem, Deshaun Holton passed away, and your trying to incitie some hateful shit?
"Ron you fucking hypocrite just last week you was criticizing mob deep for going with money so they stay the hell out the hood this week you fucking preaching make up your fucking mind you fucking loser"
Now explain to me Shakeem, how Ron expressed a different view to that of criticising Mobb Deep for going with money? He said nothing about it, apart from that it was upsetting that you felt you had to promote Blood Money on a R.I.P blog?
Shakeem, i've also got to ask you, how can you say OTHER people are on here all day "hating" (As you seem to enjoy using that word), when just the other day I clearly showed your posts were each about 10-15 minutes apart? Spending all day were we?
(I'mma remind y'all):
"This the first time i ever posted on this thing, but after seeing that Shakeem bullshit, i had to do it, i had to post this shit. Shakeem, if you's got a job, then how come each one of your posts is like: "Posted by: shakeem at April 7, 2006 02:11 PM", "Posted by: shakeem at April 7, 2006 02:26 PM", "Posted by: shakeem at April 7, 2006 02:35 PM", "Posted by: shakeem at April 7, 2006 02:45 PM", "Posted by: shakeem at April 7, 2006 02:53 PM", "Posted by: shakeem at April 7, 2006 03:02 PM" "Posted by: shakeem at April 7, 2006 03:05 PM", "Posted by: shakeem at April 7, 2006 03:12 PM". Now i thought you were at work. Shits in the daytime, and about 5-10 minutes apart each. "Homey, I could hear you huffing and puffing refreshing the page every ten seconds.
You could barely type that is how mad you are over some people that is not your family." real shit.
And i'm out. Shakeem, grow up son."
So Shakeem, grow up. Don't speak on the hood, the people in the hood, or anything remotely related to the streets, the hood, or hip hop because you know you have no credibility.
R.I.P Deshaun Holton.
The Detroit police have confirmed that indeed Proof did shoot the other man first, and then was subsequently shot himself. If that is the case, this is just ANOTHER sad case of taking "keepin it hood" way too far. He had 5 children and a wife, nothing this man could have said to him in an argument would have been worth him murdering someone, but now instead of him going to jail, he's dead. I pray for his family, and the family of the bouncer as well.
yall calling me a G-unit stan
yall are Ron's stans
you hypocrites
last week he was hating this week he's preaching
Just because Proof fired the first shot don't mean he started it dumb ass...and just cause he fired the first shot don't mean he didn't do it in self defense...You obviously aint never been in a life or death situation before cause sound real stupid....Proof may have been at fault but we don't know that yet...Wait until all the facts come out before you jump to conclusions and say he deserved it...Proof had a lot to lose...for him to react like that he must have felt his life was in danger...
First, I would like to say r.i.p to proof. I send my condolenses to his family. It's sad to see a brother who had some pretty positive views shut down over nothing. To the brother,Shakeem,I just want you to know. That you can't call any brother a hypocrite without the status of Jesus Christ Himself. The Bible says "Judge not that ye be not judged. And to anybody who wants to disrespect the Proof, just let the man's soul rest and let God take care of everything else.
ps I applaud Mr. Ron for this blog.
Keep God First and save the music,
Young Chosen 1

As for the "hate" that goes on here... When did it become real HATE to hold an "artist" to a higher standard? If criticism is HATE, then are we just supposed to be force-fed some corporate marketing package? and smile about it? Shuffle our feet and say "Thanks you Massa?"
Seperately, although I may have not felt Proof's work, at least he did not copy what worked for Eminem (Industry superkid at the time, arguable whether he's on hiatus from that or not), or overuse his relationship with Em to produce his album.
Ron - great video pick... its as eerie watching Proof die in this vid, as it was seeing 'Pac die in "I aint mad at cha"
Ron all you will ever be is a lousy blog writer
I wonder if you actually think you've made it in life
Ron, could you please erase that nigga Gerald's comment, while you're at it.
Humbug...I mean Shakeem, as far as I know, you hate on everyone who isn't Gunit. you Morroco niggas are crazy.
However, I feel for Proof's family the most, cuz they're the ones who will really suffer this tragedy, proof is already resting. And stop blaming this shit on hip-hop, cuz if he was never famous, He probably would've died a long time ago, just none of us would be talking about it. Its not like rappers is the fastest dying group in america.
Ron, I think everyone here (well, almost everyone here) appreciates what you are doing and we can see through the "hate" and understand why you do this.
RIP Proof, and I'll be very interested to see what comes out about what really happened. I hope he didn't start something that finished him.
Yo whoever did dat shyt iz gonna die to i am dead serious soon as em knows 50 gonna find out and da whole G-unit, shady, aftermath gonna take down tht nigga
R.I.P Proof dat was my nigga and hate him or love him the fact iz he was a real MC
Beltus,
Stop talking...You're making a fool out of yourself.
RIP Proof
And please everyone remember that besides being a respected performer, this was a MAN who had 5 KIDS THAT LOST THEIR FATHER in a way TOO many of us are familiar with. Keep his family in our hearts and prayers.

Enough said, cuz...
I won't use a checklist on this blog because at the end of the day this shit is just messed up.
I can't watch that video-it's almost as eerie as watching the Pac video premiere the day he died.
I gotta say this shit to Shakeem:
The shit said on here is good natured fun, this in no means would cause another man to get killed, no one on this blog was at the club so we can't say for sure what happened. The victims beside Proof and the guy that Proof allegedly shot have families that have to deal with it. What happened is deeper than hip hop and who hates what videos, pay your respects or shut the fuck up and go back to your cube and fantasize about that 740IL you supposedly drive. Obviously your are not a full fledged adult yet, maybe puberty is around the corner you wouldn't understand about how death is fucked up for EVERYONE INVOLVED-fuckin dirtbag.
the fact is that Mobb Deep video is weak, and I fucks w/ Mobb Deep, but the real is a man is dead, if you have nothing substantial to bring to the conversation then you should keep your kid ass mouth shut-just because you got a degree in 3 years it does not make you smart-nor does it make you a man.
Condolences to the families.

it should've been Ron that got shot in the head not proof
stop hating
How is living in the same hood that you grew up in keeping it real?...
Anyhow lets pray for both families, they family that lost their loved one and the family whose member is fighting to live (the bouncer is still in crtical condition and it doesn't look good)
You just pray that people act their age and realize that when you have families with children included its not just about YOU...you cant behave the same way you used to or do the same things that you used to do. You have to look outside of you and notice the effects and affects of your behavior. Its about growing up and being responsible and being held accountable for your actions.
God Bless You all and have a good day :)
For my folks, we don't know what happened in that club. All we do know is we lost some more people to senseless violence and thats all anybody knows. The reason why it happened is because we have allowed people to tell us what we should believe in and what should be important to us. If any of y'all think 50 is going to raise a finger, you're fucking retarded. If anybody thinks anybody from outside the D is going to come in and regulate shit, you're fucking retarded.
For old boy that wanted to know what is was like in comparison to L.A. Let me tell you, I have family out on the West Coast and it seems like there was bad areas and good areas. There are certain spots in Oakland where you shouldn't be at certain times, but other places in Oakland feel safe. There was still a lot of gang tension when I was last out in Cali. It ain't no gang thing or bad area thing in the D. We are one of the most segrated cities in the nation so anywhere in the city it can go down and it has gone down. There are just certain areas where you shouldn't go at any time if you ain't from there period. Proof got shot on a border from the suburbs where the police are visible on the suburb side but not at all on the Detroit side. There are multiple blocks and streets in the city where they reguarly shoot at cops on patrol. Everybody thinks its cool to act in violence until its them or their family lying in that pine box.
you guys should pray in advance for the guy who shot proof, cause G-unit will get their hands on him soon or later
Shakeem is like a child, the more you pay attention to him, the more he loves the attention. I think that the only thing we can do in this situation is put a collection plate together to donate to the "get Shakeem a piece of ass" fund.. It is obvious that this man/boy has not seen hide nor hair of a vagina in his life and this uptight behavior exhibited on this blog and any other blog shows that loud and clear.
On a more serious note: Shakeem my love, get it together. Ron Mexxico or any other person "hating" on this blog is not responsible for this man's death or any other person's death. People are voicing their opinion just the same way you do.. The only thing I can say is practice tact. You are an asshole for even coming sideways to anyone on this site while they are mourning the death of someone..
R.I.P PROOF. THIS VID IS VERY IRONIC...DAMN ANOTHER BROTHA DEAD BY VIOLENCE....WILL IT EVER STOP????
Come on....is that honestly necessary???
Lets not blame hip hop for this tragedy.. This is another case of alcohol influencing violence.. Violence occurs at the closing of all clubs.. black, white, asian, indian,etc..
Point being.. know how to hold your liquor
If what I hear is true than i don't feel sorry for Proof one bit, if he shot that man first he deserved what he got. I can't believe yall are supporting this murderer, he killed someone and then got shot in self defense, yall need to tell the whole story, i ain't crying over this nigga because he killed someone and that shit is wrong.
Posted by: J-Money at April 12, 2006 12:55 PM
first off he didnt kill anyone the man is alive
secondly you were not there so none of us no what happened, if he shot the man for no reason well thats fucked up but no one deserves to die, but whos to say he didnt shoot first to try to save his own life from people trying to kill him, we dont know what happened so dont speculate. The fact is the man is dead and may he rest in peace and may god be with his family.
IT'S A GOT DAMN SHAME - MIAMI DADE SEND IT'S RESPECK AND LOVE TO HIS FAM. PEACE TO PROOF 4 REAL.
Don't know the facts, but God will handle it.
Conclusion: Stop Killing Eack Other.
...and no...Corporate America doesn't have shit to do with this.
These Dudes were in there early to late thirties! What kind of example are we setting for the youth!
Proof was not only Rapper more importantly he was a father a Son and brother and freind.
Imagine all that knowledge and resourcfulness and experience just disapearing going from one family let alone the number of lives he touched through being famous!
Hip Hop was not created to destroy lives but build! I cannot wait for this Thugg Sh** to die! I cannot wait until we stop glorifying violence and start glorifiying family and real life.We are killing ourselves leaving nothing for our seeds!

They even going at Shakeem on here--shit's real corny--I'm out...
r.i.p. proof, but let's keep it real proof shot somebody in the head first, but people are on here praising him like this was just a senseless act of violence that took his life, when proof was the one who shot first.
That video is an overdose of irony.
That's the second member of D-12 that has been killed thus far...not to mention that shot to the head Obie Trice took recently.
Sucks...I liked D-12. Don't know how they're going to keep it moving without Proof.

WOW...when you can sit there and put down another person AND Pose as another name AND have HOMOEROTIC shit in each entry, you are doing a stand up job...give yourselves a hand...
Hey Jhonny, BLing, hummer, think and whomever you pose as...step your vocabulary up, grow up then you can actually be on my level...and stop posting homoerotic shit about the next man--you realize you look REALLY BAD doing it, right?
Now I'm out, anyone writing as me today is not me, y'all know the deal.
"I love 50 cent's rock hard cock", i told 50 as he walked over to the bed and sat down by me.
"Good, that's just how I love your cock, honey" I said as I rubbed his bulging cock, then grabbing him pulling him down to me kissing him so passionately. He could taste my sweet cunt on his lips. As he kissed me his hands slid up and down my chest, fondling my hard nipples. He began kissing my neck as he hand moved to my wet cunt lips. "Lay back baby I need to taste the sweet cunt".
I lay back on the back as he spread my thighs open, he slid down between my thighs. I was already dripping wet from playing with myself earlier. The site of my shaved pink cunt made his cock ache. He slid his tongue firmly up and down my slit, parting my puffy lips more and more. His tongue went up to my hard hot clit and straight down to my sopping went cunt as he consumed me. I moaned and started thrusting my hips up and down as he sucked my clit. His fingers deep inside me fucking me as I came so hard as his fingers penetrated me.
As I lay there catching my breath, he began to undress. My eyes following every move as he undressed. Then finally he released his huge cock from his boxers. His was so big but it was so wide. I knew he would touch secret places inside me that no other man ever has before.
He slid into the bed next to me; I straddled him sitting on top of his cock letting him slide in between my cunt lips. Letting his big hard cock enter me. He sat up and began sucking my nipples, moaning as I fucked him rocking on his hard cock. He then flipped me over onto my back, positioning himself between my thighs. The head of his cock pressing against my clit, as he kissed me so hard. Finally he drove his cock deep inside me. I gasped as he sunk his cock fully into my wet cunt.
He knew his cock would fit inside me, as he began pumping his huge cock in and out of my cunt. I grabbed his firm ass, urging him to fuck me harder and deeper.
"Fuck me harder baby, I want to feel that hard cock inside my creamy cunt". He threw my legs over his shoulders and plunged into me deeper and faster. I was screaming as he massaged my clit with his finger, as he fucked me harder.
My hands on my tits, pinching my nipples, as he rocked in and out my dripping wet cunt. I screamed harder, "baby I am Cumming". My cunt began to spasm around his cock, making him cum too filling me with all that hot cum.
50's thrusting slowed down, he collapsed onto my breasts. I looked up at him, smiling through his buck teeth we both knowning this was the first of many wonderful fucks to come. I LOVE 50 CENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Posted by: shakeem at April 12, 2006 02:17 PM
I feel the same way shakeem
I can't do this anymore
Let me tell yall somethin, and please pay close attention. At this rate, at some point Hip Hop is going to get SO censored that it will effectively ELIMINATE the Gangsta or Hardcore Rapper. Don't be surprised if rules are instituted into Hip-Hop not allowing an artist to talk about they're guns, murkin niggas or flossin hoes. Hip-Hop isn't to blame for Proofs Murder, or any other murder of a Hip-Hop artist, stupid ass niggas are to blame, but trust me, HIP-HOP itself will take the heat for it. U see, the most fucked up part about Hip-Hop TODAY is that U got a few POWERFUL cats that don't really understand the culture and probably dont really give a shit about it, but they're making STUPID money off of it. Ex. MTV, Jimmy Iovine,a lot of the label execs. IT'S ALL ABOUT THE $$ TO THESE MFs.
HIP-HOP is a beautiful culture, but its already getting watered down ( except the underground/mixtape shit ) and pretty soon, it's going to be something taken away from those who get a paycheck from it... and WHY? BECAUSE OF STUPID NIGGAS THAT TREAT THE MUSIC INDUSTRY LIKE THE PRISON YARD.
LOOK AT SUGE KNIGHTS ASS NOW! U WONT HERE IS NAME AGAIN IN HIP-HOP IN 24mo. ITS A WRAP YO!
FOR ALL THE HARDCORE CATS THAT LOVE TO SPEAK ON HURTIN,MURKIN AND DOING BAD TO OTHERS, GO AHEAD MF. BUT WHEN THEY TAKE YO PLATE AWAY FROM YOU AND YA KIDS CANT EAT BECAUSE YOU READ TOO MANY COMIC BOOKS & THINK U SOME KIND OF SUPER THUG, LOOK IN THE MIRROR YO, AND SAY "THANK YOU".
LIVE 2 GIVE YO!
IZZOUT
rest in peace proof
R.I.P Proof
This video is weird to watch now since Proof has died. Rappers(people in general)need to really think about the things they put out in the world because it does come back in some form or fashion. The good book says death and life are in the power of the tongue.
I don't know all of the facts about the situation, but I would bet that it was over some bullshit.
Rest In Peace Proof
If you think this video is creepy, Listen to the last part of the song "kurt kobain" of his upcoming album.
I do feel bad for proof's kids but the facts are this whenever you are trying to kill someone there is a chance you will die proof took this chance and paid the consequences. This is just how life goes it can't be changed.
The way i see it is that any way it goes the kid's would lose their father by either being in jail or in a grave

LMAO ur a funny guy KKK, loooooooooool, u do gotta point.
Just because Proof fired the first shot don't mean he started it dumb ass...and just cause he fired the first shot don't mean he didn't do it in self defense...You obviously aint never been in a life or death situation before cause sound real stupid....Proof may have been at fault but we don't know that yet...Wait until all the facts come out before you jump to conclusions and say he deserved it...Proof had a lot to lose...for him to react like that he must have felt his life was in danger...
Posted by: Black Friday at April 12, 2006 01:14 PM
THAT IS DAMN TRUEE!!!! ive been wanting to say this the ignorant ppl for a long time, but u faggots keep watchin CNN, ABC and all that otha shitt that brainwashed u..... remeber that proof had a great spirit and was a loving person, why would he just do this outta nowhere.... Big props to Black Friday
I was thinking about this video yesterday after I read what happened. It definitely falls into the same prophetic, ironic/coincidental category that Pac's "I Ain't Mad At Ya" did. 10 years later, and this dumb shit keeps on keeping on...
And let's be real, what Ron does here (as well as the majority of posters who practice grammatical correctness) is not spew hate, it's about cracking jokes. Simple as that. If Ron or any of us who fit in the above criteria put out a video, you can put everything you got on us clowning ourselves harder than anyone else could. That's what's lost on the majority of this hip hop generation, a sense of fucking humor. If everyone could take a step back and stop taking themselves and their adopted 'hard' persona so seriously, incidents of reactionary dumb shit like this would decrease exponentially.
Learn to laugh, it eases tension. That's all.
But don't laugh at some of my early comments from the 'Girlz Wit the Boom' blog, they're not so funny anymore in light of this...
50 gonna ride for Proof.
GGG-GUNIT gunplay all day!!
50 Cent is the GOD..............
GOD???!!!!
aye shakeem you need to chill with that, u are one sadistic cat if you believe that 50 Cent is GOD...ima pray for you faggot. hopefully GOD will save a place for you in heaven after hearing that stupid ass remark...salaams!
Lets be real here people. G-Unit aint gone do shit- Shady aint gone do shit- Aftermath aint gone do shit. To the people who think they will... you probably still think santa is real. You probably still put teeth under your pillows when they fall out. Hell your teeth probably still fall out!!! These dudes aint gangstas. They say they is but they aint. R.I.P Proof but damn the nigga shot someone else first. I aint saying its his fault because he may have been trying to protect himself. But damn, he was my favorite member. he was a tight rapper. Listen to Searching For Jerry Garcia. Had he had the proper marketing he would've sold major records. Listen to the Promatic shit. Go to Allhiphop.com and listen to Kurt Kobain. You could at least get the thought that he died happy that his niggas made it. Too bad he's still dead. To me, there is no more D-12.

Ron, could you please erase that nigga Gerald's comment, while you're at it.
Humbug...I mean Shakeem, as far as I know, you hate on everyone who isn't Gunit. you Morroco niggas are crazy.
However, I feel for Proof's family the most, cuz they're the ones who will really suffer this tragedy, proof is already resting. And stop blaming this shit on hip-hop, cuz if he was never famous, He probably would've died a long time ago, just none of us would be talking about it. Its not like rappers is the fastest dying group in america.
Posted by: ONE at April 12, 2006 01:20 PM
ONE,
First off I am a black man not a nigga. If thats what you consider yourself then that's your choice.
If he was never famous he would have died a long time ago ?????
I know you were trying to get your point of view across about something..
Take your time, collect your thoughts
and
Try Again
I wanted to start off by saying Rest in Peace to both Proof and the Bouncer...
I think alot of people in here are more simpathetic to proof because he was a celebrity...right now we do not know any real details about what has taken place..right now we have just come to find out that proof has shot someone in addition to being shot by someone else...I am not in a position to judge who was right and who was wrong because I just like any of you were not there...
I wanted to also say that regardless of what other types of blogs are written on this site..at least SOHH had the decency to give us a forum to pass on our good wishes to both men affected by this tragedy..regardless of your personal beliefs..you must note that two families have lost a loved one...
Rip PROOF
in the bible it says the power of life and death are in the tounge.
its crazy em did the video with proof getting shot. then Zino did the same thing. then he this happens.
Pac spoke of death also.
Sad man.
I hope y'all took a good look at shakeem's (real) comments...talkin' bout "Ron stop hating, one day you hate, next day you preach". Why the fuck do you think he's preachin, duke? This is to honor the memory of another brother who left us 'cause of some dumb beef shit. Goddamn, you and others should show some respect, and if not that, then at least some decency.
See that's what's funny about all this shit too. It's weak & sensitive muthafuckas like shakeem that end up causing this dumb beef shit. Ron comes on here and usually just clowns a music video or an episode from a TV show, just for a few laughs. But then people like shakeem show up and get their sensitive feelings hurt and start the conflict. "It's all fun & games till someone gets hurt." Physically or emotionally...I know I'm referring to some bullshit e-beef, but all you gotta do is apply that to the streets.
It's that, and a combination of the whole street mentality that has plagued a lot of us in the black community. Where owning a gun makes you a man and killing your fellow man makes you an even bigger man. Where you "have to" sell crack to your own and resort to robbin' & stealin' just 'cause you didn't "feel" like going to school and going to work/startin a legit hustle. Now, I know the value of an education (especially compared to its cost) is nothing like it used to be, but that's a different story. Shit, I can go on & on about what needs to change, like the poor family structure and whatnot, but I don't want this post to be ignored just because "it was too long and you didn't feel like readin' all of it". So basically, all this street bullshit needs to stop before we lose more and more brothers & sisters to senseless killings.
And I suggest yall watch Beef 1 and 2...see how some DUMB shit stirs up over little misunderstandings and mistaken subliminals in the music. And I'm talkin' life & death. It's what happens when some street niggas decide they wanna rap, when they get on and feel the heat from their competition, they call up their wolves and go to war. Fuckin' stupid. This is why it's a good thing Nas & Jigga officially buried the hatchet. People look down on Nas for the move to Def Jam under Jay, but look at Pac & Biggie and take a minute to think about what that move did for hip hop. I'm out.
R.I.P. Proof
Gerald: Stop trying to switch what I said, cuz I used the word 'probably'(as in higher risk) I never said it was a fact. I meant to say that the average nigga, such as yourself has a higher chance of getting shot in the hood(just open a newspaper) than a rapper. Meaning that if you make it out the hood, by becoming a famous rapper, your chances of being involved in a violent crime are less common, unless of course you go back to the hood with no security.
No, I am not a nigga, im DAT NIGGA.
P.S: you dumb nigga, this blog is in memory of Proof, not Mr.stopusingthewordnigga.
........my god, ignornace is everywhere on this blog... people quit fighting on this blog this is for Proof, not for you petty thoughts .....
WE'LL MISS YOU PROOF! R.I.P.
r.i.p proof
r.i.p j dilla
GOD bless their family, friends, and fans... Amen!
i just heard that kurt kobain song by proof that shit was crazy
Yo Shakeem (last timne I'll sya it)_ mine as well have a record out cuz he's more popular then the blogs!!!!! Let me introduce everyone to the ignore button (IB). From here on out instead of either bothering to mention Shakeem's name or respond to his ignorance or lack of hip hop understanding or his affection for the sweat that drips off 50 nuts, just give him (IB) aka Ignore button, Jay has one for Camron, 50 has one for anybody that could actually serve him, and dammit we need one for shakeem!!!!!!
Are they D-11 now???????
yo r.i.p. to proof i wanted to meet him real bad...in this altercations it's sad anybody got shot, and how under educated hood niggas are man...these murda rappers need some religion in there lives...Proof was always a rapper I looked up too, didn't know him personally, but I'm sure he was a great person...I produce, rap and don't even cuss and niggas have approached me on some I got the burner type stuff...wow whats good people!!
RIP Proof/BIG/Pac/Big L/J-Dilla/and the countless others also I would like to say R.I.P. to my uncle my num. 1 role model on this sometimes violent earth
LET"S NOT FORGET DEHSAUN (PROOF)HOLTON WAS STILL A MAN WITH A FAMILY A MOTHER ,WIFE AND KIDS SO LET THAT BE TOLD TO.Outside of the rapping and things of that matter .GOD BLESS AND MR.DESHAUN HOLTON REST IN PEACE..
R.I.P Proof
DJ Lucky: I feel what your sayin', but I'ma give proof his R.I.P. and my condolences anyway, just as I give em to the other brother.
Just cuase someone got caught doesn't mean they deserved to die, we don't know the whole situation, maybe he felt cornered had no out but to pop off? I don't know, I'm sayin its right. Me, I left the streets a long time ago, now my sons seem to be getting caught up in it. What can do tell "yo you can't do that!", meanwhile they know my history? All I can do i s whjat I been doin show em a better way by tryin to keep head high and pockets above water. But I know, just like they know, if the situation arises I will whatever is necesary, WHATEVER. Do wear that like a badge? Never, but I know what I'm capable of and what it would take to put me out there again. Does that make me deserving to die? I don't think so, but thats just me. I fully beleive a man can change his spots become something mare than what he was.
Rambling ....point I was making, it takes more than a situation to define a man, but it only taje two fingers to destroy one.
MR.DESHAUN HOLTON REST IN PEACE IN WHICH THE WORLD DID NOT GIVE.. FROM THE TEDDY BEAR ENTERTAINMENT FAMILY..
OMG RON UR NOT HATING! THIS MUST BE FIRST FOR YOU. U STILL A LAME AZZ NIGGA. IT WONT B 2 MUCH LONGER TILL U HEADIN DOWN THE SAME ROAD AS IRREVERENT.

IM PISSED CAUSE AFTER JAY BROUGHT HE'S DAUGHTER UP IN THAT BEEF I FELT MAD SORRY FOR DUDE AND I WAS RIDING FOR HIM TO WIN THE BEEF, NOW HE MAKES ME FEEL ALL STUPID AND SHIT FOR SIDING WITH HIM BACK THEN
This don't make no sence people getting killed over bullshit.When are people going to learn when killing don't solve anything.I fell sorry for his death but why is he going to come back when he knowed he had beef with somebody.I fell sorry for his family and friends but on the other part I don't and you know why because as my grandmother what comes around goes around.I like d-12 and eminem for their music they like they the world but sing about their self so I care(even thow I don't know them) but I don't on the half sorry but their to many killing in the black community and every race.We don't know what goes behind close doors.I feel sorry for the lost but this don't make no sence.Him and his family move out of the hood my is he going to go back their?Its not about where he come from its about his life and what he can do to improve it. Rest in peace proof to tell the truth I didn't know he had a ablum out until I went to sam goody the other day but I know nobody don't care so don't made with me.Everybody not going to live you got to die one day so if I had all that money like he had I would never come back he know how it is around.i don't got to prove nothing don't buy my alblum you.I don't have to prove i'm big bad and tough beceuse I know what come out on the end.My I'm going to sell drugs when I can do the best I can and make a living instead of getting rob shot and love ones leave me.Why is i'm going to rap fucking all these people when I know I get a diese out of one dthem(every not clean as you think).Why is i'm going to go back their when I know I have a feeling or know nobody don't like.Why is i'm going to reck somebody party or their time to shine when I'm not welcome their you get what you ask for.I got a family to feed why is i'm going to spend money (because you rich doesn't mean anything) when I got a family to feed.Like people all way say you not going to be here forever.R.I.P to all the fallen soilders who die in the struggle love

Shakeem,
You wanna be 50 Cent don't you?
Tired of living in the hood?
Tired of getting no poon tang because you're broke?
Tired of wondering if you're ever going to get married and have children because nobody likes you?
I would try to "terrorize" internet blogs too if I had those issues.
Show some respect. This is a tribute thread for Proof. Not battlegrounds for the 50 cent wars.
Have a bath you stupid son of a bitch.
You niggas is fucking retarded! Check wikipedia.com to prove Jays a biter...WTF? Since when do niggas check encyclopedias to see what's going on in hip hop? When Jay quotes BIG or when anybody quotes anybody in the game it's a sign of respect...away of paying homage...All of the verses that was on that Swagger Jacker were well known verses on well known songs...Who the hell didn't know he was quoting BIG??? If it took Swagger Jacker for you to know that he was quoting other MCs in those verses then you really exposing yourself for the half ass hip hop fan you really are...and it explains all of yall dumb ass comments
DETOX IS IT DAT TIME OF THE MONTH?
SERIOUSLY NIGGA WHUT U GONNA DO 2 SHAKEEM? HIT HIM WITH UR PURSE?
FUCKIN HOMO

It's quite pathetic when you have to make another sign-in name just to co-sign with yourself.
Someone who makes 25 plus posts in a thread in less than a day is in dire need of a life. Wouldn't you agree with me, O.G. Loc?
It's amazing that it only took you three minutes to respond to me. I mourn for the loss of Proof and your social life as well.

Man Suspected Of Fatally Shooting Rapper Proof Surrenders, Pool Game May Have Sparked Fight
By Nolan Strong
Date: 4/12/2006 8:30 pm
A 28-year-old man suspected of fatally shooting rapper Proof of D12 turned himself in today (April 12).
Mario Etheridge, 28, of Detroit is being detained by the police for allegedly shooting the rapper during an altercation inside of the C.C.C. nightclub.
Etheridge was also a bouncer at the C.C.C. nightclub.
Police said he is a cousin of Keith Bender Jr., the bouncer who was allegedly shot by Proof during the fight, which took place around 4:30 am Tuesday.
Sources told AllHipHop.com that the altercation was rooted in a pool game.
For unknown reasons, the men two began arguing and a fight broke out.
A shot was fired in the air, Proof allegedly pistol-whipped Bender, knocked him to the ground and then shot him.
Etheridge then allegedly open fire on the rapper, striking him four times in the head and chest.
Authorities are still investigating the incident, but police said the 28-year-old was cooperating with authorities.
Bender, a former Sgt. in the United States Army, is on life support in critical condition.
DONT TELL ME I DONT KNOW HIP HOP.
NIGGA ESPECIALLY WHEN I GOT HOMIES LIKE KRAYZIE BONE N RAY CASH FROM CLEVELAND.

Hey man, quit giving Cleveland a bad name.
Just spitting the facts...
1. Proof pistol whipped the bouncer after an argument over A POOL GAME!!!
2. Proof pulled out his registered pistol, aimed at this bouncers head and FIRED A BULLET INTO HIS HEAD!!!
3. Proof was shot down by another bouncer who witnessed him SHOOT FIRST!!!
You fucks talk about black, white, media, respect... WHERES THE FUCKING RESPECT FOR THE BOUNCER WHO ARGUED AND IS NOW IN ICU in CRITICAL CONDITION!!! Trust me I liked proof and d12 is a group that seemed to not really WANT BEEF, in respect to being shit talkers. It was unfortunate he was shot arguing over pool (and shooting a man in the head FIRST!!!.) JUST BECAUSE HE'S A FUCKING RAPPER DOES NOT HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH HIP HOP YOU FUCKING SONS OF BITCHES! That goes for BILL HOFFMAN and YOU FUCKING BLOG TERRORISTS... But who listens right?
and so RON he didn't die from hiphop but a bad cue ball shot that started an argument! Oh an you could have played I LIKE GIRLS THE GIRLS THAT GO BOOM... BUT I GUESS WATCHING HIM DIE OVER AND OVER AGIAN IS BETTER YOU FUCKING ASSHOLE! RIP ProoF
STOP BLAMIN VIOLENCE ON HIPHOP....BROTHERS,ALL COLORS R DYIN EVERY DAY 4 BULLSHIT.HIPHOP WASNT AROUND WHEN BLACKS WERE DYING IN SLAVERY....FUCK U CRITICS,GO IMPEACH CRACKERASS GUMBALL BUSH,CAUSE HE STARTED A REAL BEEF WITH PEOPLE WHO ARENT NEVER GONNA STOP GUNNIN 4 US......REALTALK.
Gerald: Stop trying to switch what I said, cuz I used the word 'probably'(as in higher risk) I never said it was a fact. I meant to say that the average nigga, such as yourself has a higher chance of getting shot in the hood(just open a newspaper) than a rapper. Meaning that if you make it out the hood, by becoming a famous rapper, your chances of being involved in a violent crime are less common, unless of course you go back to the hood with no security.
No, I am not a nigga, im DAT NIGGA.
P.S: you dumb nigga, this blog is in memory of Proof, not Mr.stopusingthewordnigga.
One,
Actually I have no chance of being
shot in the hood because I don't live in the hood and I don't go to the hood
looking to get involved in dumb shit with ignorant people whose only response
to a disagreement is to resort to violence. I grew up in what could be considered a hood Brooklyn, New York but
I minded my business,graduated from college, got married and moved to Atlanta to pursue the kind of life I wanted.
God willing when I die it will be as an old man with grandchildren.
I hope the same thing for you.
Nothing I said in my first most was insulting or demeaning to black people in anyway but for some
