MaxFly Posted April 11, 2006 Report Share Posted April 11, 2006 http://www.freep.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article...NEWS99/60411006 D12 rapper Proof killed in shooting at afterhours nightclub April 11, 2006 Rapper Proof of the hip-hop group D12 was shot and killed this morning at an illegal afterhours club on Eight Mile, police said. Proof, whose real name is Deshaun Holton, was dead on arrival at Conner Creek Medical Center in Detroit, according to a spokeswoman for St. John Health System. He was 32. Proof was among the most pivotal players on the Detroit hip-hop scene, and revered as one of the best freestyle MCs in the city. He befriended Eminem long before he was a houshold name, and was a nearly constant presence as the rapper rose to superstardom. He toured with Eminem as his on-stage hype man, was a member of his group D12, had a bit role in the "8 Mile" movie and served as the best man at his wedding in January. An unidentified 35-year-old man, who was shot along with Proof, is in critical condition at Detroit's St. John Hospital. Police were called to the shootings around 5 a.m, following reports of a fight and shots fired. The club where it occurred is called 3C, and it's at 8 Mile near Hayes. The club isn't illegal but it was operating illegally after hours. This is the second shooting involving Eminem's entourage in three months. Another Eminem pal and rapper Obie Trice was shot and wounded New Year's Eve while driving along the Lodge Freeway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigWillieFan01 Posted April 11, 2006 Report Share Posted April 11, 2006 I cannot believe this! Proof is gone. Bizarre is hurt badly. Oh my god. I've never been a big fan of Bizarre, but I liked Proof a lot, and it hurts to hear he's gone. But I still hope Bizarre survives and the police finds the person who's respon- sible for this. When will this violence in this business stop? That's the reason why lots of people don't like hip hop, damned. Anyway. Proof, we will never forget you, man.
