I love you my baby, you helped put my city on the map and we appreciated you and the rest of D-12 more than you could ever know. They sent you out right, your gone but not forgotten… You’ll live in the heart and soul of Detroit forever. R.I.P
you mean the worllldd to meee babyy
Good to see trash like you dissapear…
I’m doing a school wax museum on you. Theres so much to you. I’v just learned about like everything about you just in 3 days. I cried for you. I’m sorry for the family and friends you lost a great guy. <3
Eminem: When you loose someone close to you-
When you loose someone close to you
You cant explain the way you feel,
The way you could just all hang out and never get bored
Just the way you could all be friends and never fight
You never got to say your last goodbye to your good mate
But always remember he is above us all
Telling us not to grieve and to get on with life
And live life like he would have
With passion and pride
And live it up for your mate because he cant anymore
But now he is watching from above.
You would always back each other up
Everywhere you go you look lonely
Now I see how much loosing someone means
I am so sorry I know I cant take your pain away
When you loose someone remember
All the good times
And not the bad ones
Because that is what matters the most
You make mistakes in life
But look-so does everyone else
So dont look at all the mistakes you made
Look at the ones you made together and how much fun you had
Watching from above? you mean below, in hell. That repulsive slime. People that support you make me sick. Its just wrong.
As is with everybody, your family and direct friends will miss you, but others will see you as a cowardly individual who took anothers life just because you were keeping it real. Someone who was maybe a husband father brother and son, does anyone remember him, I hope his family sues proofs estate to tkae care of anyone he left behind………. You killed a Vet a–hole, hate to say but you got what you deserved…
Shoot someone in the face and you get shot in the head….makes sense to me. Just another thug off the street…..you are a piece of s#!t, no one will miss you….
Rest In Peace
hiiiiiiiiii
Proof, you’re just like everyone else. Black and white, light and dark, right and wrong, here and there. There are two sides to every story, every object, every creature. People ought to remember that.

Don’t know why I chose to make my first post here…I will give a big RIP to everyone on this site, including this guy, but why would any of you think this guy is “watching from above”? You think he is in heaven? He shot a dude, probabluy over some dumb gangster thuglife crap. There isn’t a place in heaven for that behavior. Sorry.
Rip P
Rip PROOF SHOT HIMSELF
Rest in Peace. You Will Never be Forgotten
R.I.P Proof. To all people disrespecting proof Fuck You you don’t Know who he is and have no right to judge its people like you who make me sick and I hope the best for him in the afterlife and the best for his family and friends and hope that they will remember him and Eminem has already commemerated Proof by Dedicating and Singing about Proof in his songs.

Fuck this stupid gangbangin nigger. He so deserved to get shot. Good fucking riddance!!!!!
rip bruh
Proof was not only a generous person who was brought up to throw a gun at a nigga b4 pulling the trigger so unless u big mouth faggots were their then I suggest u shut the fuck up . Proof was a generous kind person . When eminem was rockin his white trash run down kicks it was proof that took the nice nikes off his feet &gave them to his brother em so fuck u secret lovers . Rip proof
To this Jason fucker if I ever see u u better be right with the lord cause u going to meet him racist ass piece of shit some how I just get the feeling u jus straight up po white trash what’s the matter did some black guys pick on u in school coward hearted trash
stay with god proof
HE WILL BE MISSED LIKE EVERY OTHER ARTIST WHO HAD DIED
Are you guys fukin retarded? The dude shoots someone in the face and ur crying over him. He got what he deserved. You wanna act like a thug, you die like one. No sympathy from me. Glad another piece of shit like that is off the streets. Jail would do nothing. A shot in the head was the only way.
“Peace Out”
Well, it’s not like he was white or anything. Good fucking riddance.
If you can’t say nothing nice about someone don’t say anything at all…………
may god b with r family n friends that knew u well always in prays
im very sorry for what happened to you and hope that your at peace. my thoughts are with you and your family, cant believe your gone all that talent you had thank you for sharing it with us!
