Again, my question is, why even be in that environment? Why is he carrying around a gun? Why do rappers feel like they have to prove their manhood/bravado through violence?

Of course, just like I stated yesterday, rappers/DJs/etc are defending hip hop by saying, "this doesn't mean it was rap related."

pssf...sure...My question to them is: "How many opera, country, pop, and jazz performers have been gunned down in the last 10 years"?

Rap breeds violence and Proof is its latest victim. RIP tho...

It's just sad man.

Another thing...I find it eerie that he depicted his death in Em's video for "Toy Soldiers." Like Pac and Big, I wonder if he had an obsession over death and became a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Who knows...

The rap industry had better be careful though. If things like this continue to happen, then the government will become involved, spying on rappers even more than they already do and imposing regulations on music.

^^That's what I think.
