Proof’s existence brought everyone together filled with respect and happiness. RIP DeShaun Holton
RIP Dirty Harry!
💯✍️
This record was made only 10 years before his death, and there are 18 years passed from his death already.. damn.
I love the energy he brings. He looks soooo happy and himself and the event and his friend. RIP Proof.
rip knee u still making noise up in dis bich!
Man.. seeing proof with that hair!! Really looks like his character in 8mile movie
I was thinking the same thing
Yes.i was thinking the same
Future
@@diddyfaplord Future was his character name in 8mile
It is
Life goals: have someone watch you do whatever you do and look at you the way that Proof looks at Eminem. Honestly, I think Proof was the first person to truly recognize Eminem's genius, and I don't know that any of us would have ever been blessed with the opportunity to hear Eminem if it wasn't for Proof.
1:31 the dopest rhyme nobody ever heard
😂😂😂
Bro really said “ “
When no bars is bars 😂
It’d be hard for me to be spitting like that and not stop and scream “SHUT THE FUCK UP!!!” Lol like why’d they have to continue to yell like that?
@@chasepotter2376no fun allowed.
Love the sportsmanship afterwards. That's love for the genre
No Michael Masi here, its all about performance.
Y’all do know that Kuniva was part of D12
That's because they were good friends. Plus battle raps aren't like 8-mile, they are usually rappers just having fun and enjoying the competition.
@@TheOriginalEL bro I know that I’m from Detroit I was replying to the comment about sportsmanship
He’s part of D12. Eminem’s group that he brought with him to fame like he promised them. He came back for his boys . That’s loyalty! Too bad em is woke now. He supports everything slim shady was against by supporting the left. But that’s his choice. Should have stayed out of politics imo
Little did he know - exactly 3 years and 6 days later from that day, he would release his first global-platinum album that was produced by Dr. Dre.
Bars!
He brought Kaniva with him too, part of D12
@@Maloney-ho6fb - Actually they were all friends before the fame. So Em did brought all of them along with him after he opened up his own label (Shady Records) and proceeded to make MMLP for the year 2000 and release the first D12 album back in 2001.
That is crazy. Glad I got to see jt
Went on to be the current 10th best selling artist of any genre world wide. Not an exaggeration, might of been led zeplin or some other similar group that he overtook for top 10. Making him the best selling hophop artist, can't deny facts.
Wow...this is fucking insane...the quality is super clear here, rarest video I've ever seen on the internet of ems battle days...talk about an ultra ultra rare yugioh rap god card
You sound like one of those yugioh players who thinks he's better than anyone else at the game lol kiba that you with that alt account
@@user-fr8gn6ix3z 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 lmfaoooo aye yugioh still poppin
This video is really not that rare.
@davidiii8753 I've seen this video dozens of times, but not with this QUALITY, it's the QUALITY that is ULTRA RARE. you must be a kid otherwise you'd remember what shit was like before 3G let alone 5G 😅😅😅😅😅
quality is super clear btw. lmao
One of the real 8 Mile battles.
That ghost line was hard AF 😮💨
No it wasn’t 😂😂😂
@@Gary_Winthorpe went over your head 🤣
@Gary_Winthorpe yes it was☠️😂
Typical eminem fans. That line would be impressive if a 9 year old rapped it lol. But when somone calls out his wack bars it goes " over your head".
@kevinmcqueen9180 it was a triple entendre off the dome, atm u js a d1 hater
This is an amazing and rare piece of music history! Anyone who labels Em a culture vulture needs to be shown this. The black community embraced and raised him. He was respected as a peer and not just an outsider. And he continues to respectfully give to the culture that made him despite a select vocal few.
The same actually goes for Elvis if you care to look at footage of black people who actually knew, grew up with, or worked with him. Stevie Wonder referred to him as a “Caucasian brother” mid interview. His black female backup singers had tons of stories of how he would refuse to participate in events when they weren’t welcome. People tend to blame the artist for big record companies’ capitalistic agenda. They forget it is often the record company executives doing the exploitation of both black music AND the artist who is often being authentic. It’s sad how easily history is selectively forgotten. Besides, music should breed unity, not division and art is meant to be shared.
Thanks for keeping and sharing the archives so we have a window of how it really was.
Needs subtitles man! 😂😂😂 I particularly like when he said “Fablaaaag framapapapapa gabodobooda!”
look snoop dogg just got a fucken boob job
looool
Best comment
look snoop dogg just got a f**ken b00b job
Do you want 1996 to apologize?
This is the whole 8 Mile vibe. Amazing how they were able to recreate it with mobb deeps shook ones beat, future, and a more serious tone.. 🔥 Legendary
_"My face is pale but you look like you seen a ghost"_
Coldest line I heard 🥶
RIP Big Proof!!! Miss that guy
Lmfao you didn’t even know him😂
Maybe he ment he misses his music... don't be a cu nt
This is EXACTLY what Murda Mook was referring to on that episode of Math Hoffa's "My Expert Opinion". Eminem is a battle rapper and whether you love him or hate him his place is solidified in hip-hop.
"my face is pale but you look like you seen a ghost" 🔥🔥
It doesn't even rhyme. Nothing he said rhymed. Anything you heard at least
@@AnthonyPaul-mv4ohalot of it rhymes, but you must not understand the point of a punchline.
@@AnthonyPaul-mv4ohdo your ears work
@@AnthonyPaul-mv4ohwait what your not hearing the rhymes? Maybe try writing out what he’s saying, you just have really weird audio or a glitch in the video if your not hearing words rhyme. Strange I’ve never heard of this issue before.
He says “ I don’t mean to boast my face is pale but you look like you’ve seen a ghost”
It flows with what he said before and after that bar as well.
90’s hip hop was all about rhyming, delivery and structure.
Eminem once rhymed orange with door hinge.
❤🐐 & RIP Proof 🙏
Bro them 90's insults were sumn tho😂
Better than the s*** now it was a spot on battle with a beat none of this pre written a capella b.s. with 6 months to dig up dirt on your opponent's by calling baby mommas and ex-girlfriends
Fo’shoh!!! 😂😂😂
The character of " DAVID PORTER"(from 8 mile) was inspired from "PROOF'S" Personality. Rest in peace...
Proof also played in 8 Mile
@@PoPMichalpl9 yeah as Lil Tic.
This is awesome thanks for the upload
Rip Big Proof 🙏🏾 👑 🙌🏾
Respect to the Fam Kuniva 💪🏾💯💯💯
I freaking love these throw back videos!! It shows their love an passion for the craft
BEING HUMBLE WILL ALWAYS PAY OFF IN THE END
I love seeing behind the scenes stuff like this
Great post ❤
“When me and Em got it on, I was in the zone
And when I lost I was heart-broken ridin' home”
-Kuniva on Back In The Day by D12
Wow Proof.Haven’t heard his name for years. I bet Em thinks about him often.
You must not be paying attention to what’s going on recently then. Eminem and Benzino beefing again and Benzino has mentioned proof a couple times in bad light.
Also, Proof's son has been dropping freestyles lately under the name NASAAN. His memory and legacy are still going strong
@@senmetwo42 I didn't know his son was rapping until I just now saw this comment. Thanks for sharing. I'm definitely a fan after checking his channel out. It's a shame he isn't getting way more views. He definitely deserves them
@@anothergamingchannel2656Eminem still checks on his son they’ve taken recent pictures together
Be didn’t even circle the block for proof
And years later the three of them would make hip hop history and sell millions upon millions of albums together and tour the world.
Ain’t no place like Detroit that did it like that
Looks as New York and Wu tang clan....ok 😂
New York - mobb deep, wu tang, nas. All the dudes who inspired Em to no end.
And a few more years later Eminem would abandon them
@@Dubmayer huh? no he wouldnt.
a comic battle between two friends 🥰 and the host is proof it’s cool
You know your bars are good when the person getting roasted is vibin to em
That's sportsmanship there
holy shit. obviously seen the clip itself but how you found it in this quality is beyond me.
I dig the fact that for the most part these guys honed their craft the hard way unlike poppy sensations picked more for their looks than talent.
we literally got one punchline we could hear and it determined the battle. plus this real life 8 mile. love it
8 Mile its just straight out of this ! Legendary!
You can see that Proof its actually the same guy in 8 Mile thats best friends with Rabbit. Its just iconic!
That was cool. We need more of this.
"He's not from the culture" lmao!
🤣🤣🤣Tiger Woods ain't either
Racist rap hour
@@yorkrothschild9922 Go ahead and bring that up. If there was a whole hour of him saying some crazy racist shit, then why is the 30 seconds they put out that weak shit you can find? "Black girls are bitches, black girls are dumb" Wow, so racist.
He's not of the culture He's a guest with a life time invited to the cookout
@@morrishanson4125 he’s better off making his racist rap hour!!! I’m Jewish and Eminem would’ve gotten cancelled if he stated that about Jewish girls and Jewish guys like he did against blacks!!! No classic album, made the same album every time, same rollout…… corny
man look at these 3, didnt know they'd be touring the world together in a couple of years.. Rest in peace to Proof man
Everything just aligns perfectly for the very very very few people who become stars.
Nah it’s manifestation. It can happen to anyone, just depends how bad you want it
We are stars too.
Pretty impressive from both players.
I enjoyed that. Thanks
Love that good sportsmanship at the end
As soon as they start smiling the respect is given❤
@Eminem 🥰 You smile Boldly knocking out your verse. It's easy You broadcast, Just as beautiful. Let someone like a bone in the throat. You're not afraid and sting again Revealing your anger. And so many years have passed but You are still my favorite poet!
Proof smiling at Em at 1:35 is everything. RIP
I LOVE THIS
It's so nice to see rappers compete then dap eachother up without taking beef to the street.
Dope footage
Really nice to be able to see this
EM is the GOAT❤
❤
Definitely not
@@Neek_Santiagoopinions, ever heard of that? I bet your GOAT would have people not agree with you and laugh at you
But it is your opinion.
No matter if I would’ve won or last this battle I would’ve walked away feeling good from all the sportsmanship and chill vibes. Just some dope MC’s and a chill crowd having a good time. No drama.
This is what the 90s was about for the most part no one actually wanted to scrap at events, we went to them to avoid actually shedding blood. I remember sitting next to some of my worst highschool enemies at places like this, the skating ring, the arcade, paintball, basketball court. Who ever won, won. There was no need to take it further than that.
EMINEM THE RAP GOD, THE BEST OF THE PLANET 🔥🇧🇷🔥🔥🇧🇷🔥🔥.
Com certeza meu mano
@@oestee9122 E isso aí estamos juntos com o EMINEM.
@@alfredsilva4267 sempre irmão STANS
love the smiles and respect afterwards.
Fabuloso EMINEM 🔱🔥🌹💋
A legend is born 🔥🔥🔥
How battle rap should be, to a beat with a microphone. These battle rappers today would die quickly under these circumstances. This was dope.
Exactly to a beat!
corny take cause the battle rappers today literally have battle league with beats but because your a vulture you probly only heard of URL and not the other leagues that url battle rappers actually been on that league.. your whole comment doesnt make sense.. cause they use the head mic and rap on a beat on 2 different leagues and the other leagues are acapella.. smh ... you eminem stans swear eminem is the only person in human history that can battle.. it makes me not wanna be a em fan cause some of us are like you.. the battle rappers today seem pretty fucking fine on a beat to me.. your way late bro.. the rap battle leagues on a beat been out for the last 8 years... which means your 8 years behind.. better go do your research.. Trex vs Wise and Bill collector vs Dre dennis are the best battles on beat
Would be more entertaining to, doing it acapella is more insult poetry than battle rap
How when you can miss like 4-5 lines to a reaction and cant run it back because of the beat? We literally didnt hear like a quater of Em's verse because of it
Eminem lied and said 8 mile wasn’t based off true facts and here we are!
His shit was so dope you couldn’t hear what he was saying because the crowd was going apeshit
This dope , hip hop history. Rest In Peace Proof 🙏 #D12
That’s dope 💯💪❤️
Proof even being his best friend, still In aww watching him. Knew Em was a gem.
Awesomeness ❤❤❤❤❤
I've only seen Eminem's verse. This is the first time i've seen Kuniva's verse.
Kuniva gets slept on. Dude can spit.
@@jchaz904absolutely 🗑️
The respect after the battle…. That’s how it was meant to be
"You couldn't slip into the zone if I put banana peels around this fuckin' microphone"
FIRE 🔥
Legend!!!
Em ripped it. Back in the 90's there were so many good emcees, ciphers, unsung heroes. I loved going to Goodlife / Project Blowed it was like the Apollo and you had to come with skill, style, originality and great delivery.
Awesome post
These guys sound pretty good. Hope to hear more from them some day
🐐
Wonderful
Crazy to think that this was 4k/Ultra HD in 1996 😅
R.I.P. BIG PROOF!
Felt like I was watching 8 mile the movie 😅😂
Fuck the free world
I would smoke Eminem in any freestyle battle.... 🃏
That ghost line was fire!!!🔥
So much respect in one room.
I love Eminem Marshall..he is so sweet and he can rap so good..i love hiphop..i love m&m s❤
Touch grass
😂😂😂😂👍🏼💯
👍🏾👍🏾👏🏾😁
Love this CZcams algo!
23 year old em.. Dude had to wait for 3 more long years to finally make it.. In that period, he had almost gave up...
Oldschool. Never heard of till now. Nice. Shout out to you both. _Edy .Z
goosebumps
Feels good to be able to say that I freestyled on microphone that same mic. I miss this battle because I left an hour or two earlier. Damn!!!
Only 23 years old at the time. A year later, the rest is history.
I’d love to see if Eminem can do this again.
Nah man he got replaced with a clone that can’t freestyle. The real Eminem can clearly freestyle
he isn't even remotely Slim Shady anymore. if you were alive for this time period, you already know he can't. everything is incredibly forced these days.
this is how gangsters should settle beefs.
Eminem had everyone’s respect! Goat!!!
and a star was born.
Crazy people with this much talent never get famous smh
What the movies don't show is the respect they had for one another!
This is very nostalgic
Goat goat goat goat!!!!’
Imagine you on em place in that era
Can you handle it?
Rest In Power Big Proof!🎤🪦✊🏽
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Look at the face of the man he is beating, and now that game recognizes game. This was the beginning .
Marshall el más grande, guapo y encantador en la batalla 🌻
Great share
Em owned the hardest city in the hardest decade 💪💪💪
I didn’t know he was from Houston
@@jtothac5364lmao no one talks about Houston like that
Proof was the future! 🙏🏻🙌🏻 R.I.P.
this is the real fucking shit here. I'm so glad this exists!
Who's here still today. Eminem.
Mannn battle rap has come so far..
Proof much respect
RIP Proof, salute to Eminem!
