btw according to the latest HYPE...both the PRO's are dropping albums in march ...so we'll definitely see who has the best album...

after endless arguments with friends...i conceded that if proverb and prokid had to go toe to toe...Prokid would whip Proverb's behind but also it was admitted that Studio-wise...Proverb might come out a winner....

Looking forward to March....coolness

Dug this one up coz I think it may be relevant now...

Everyone knows that ProVERB's album is here now...

But what about that other PRO? Prokid?...I hope I wasnt right about his management & Gallo politics & this project does actually see the light of day in March as announced. :?

Personally, I don't like either of them.Nothing bad about them individually, Only with the people I chill and rhyme with, we all consider the 'PRO's ', Amu's, Selwyn's, and Skwatta Kamp's of South Africa to be wack.

I have been brought up in a hiphop culture that doesnt giv a f*** about who you are, just what you can do. I used to like Proverb when he was an unknown battling through the metro fm telephone cables. Somewhere he fell off . You can compare him to Jin, sick on Freestyle Fridays, but shit when realised the hype he had created.
The emcees I been taught and am still being taught by in hiphop, ranging from archetypes, driemanskap, groundworks, fifth floor are those i look up to as a the balancng figure of what we all truly or pretend to love.
my opinion is that the proverb's of this country do hiphop from the benefits they saw on television, namely money.It's not a crime making your profession your main source of income, but in my view, your lyrics must at all times reflect your past, present &future.
I'm far from placing myself on a pedestal and saying I'm the next best thing. It's not being one of the best that interests me, it's how I get there.

Sorry for doing an essay. I really don't like those umRappers

I got no beef with peeps anymore regarding this type of topic.I just go on the premise that its all a matter of taste and what one person likes isnt gonna be the same thing that another may like.

But its just that though many ppl wont admit, it does seem evident in many instances that 'heads' feel that once u signed the dotted line u immediately gone wack.I think its a breathe of fresh air to read the Ras Ka** interview and see his view on the whole matter.Its a business after-all when it comes to a label, so its hard to fight it.U just gotta try and strike the correct compromise.

I don't for yall, but I personally think Pro Verb is the Canibus of South Africa. No Mc in S.A can touch him when it comes to punchlines and freestyles.  8O
