Proof's Bio: Proof, aka Deshaun Holton, was one of the
greatest rappers of Detroit through the 90s. It is common knowledge that
Royce Da 5'9 and Eminem were possibly the best emcees at this point but
what many don't know was Proof, Eminem's best friend, was of equal
caliber. Proof and Eminem grew up together and faced many of the same
issues. Proof also was primarily responsible for D12's birth. He rapped
with Eminem on many famous tracks such as 'When the Music Stops' and
made several appearances in the hit motion picture, "8-Mile". Proof's
life was tragically taken at aged 32 leaving his wife and 3 children.
The details of Proof's death are rather unusual but the guaranteed
facts
are Proof was shot at an after hours party (which was rather eerily
predicted in Eminem's "Toy Soldiers" video). Proof was a brilliant
rapper and though he was taken he has left us many great tracks to
enjoy.
