AKA, Proverb & More React To The Passing Of Prokid

AKA, Proverb & More React To The Passing Of Prokid! Prokid is one of the few people who played an important role in a number of rappers careers today.
A lot of the South African rappers had a personal bond with Prokid especially those in his generation whilst some were rappers he helped in their come up like AKA and Gigi Lamayne. Although a lot of rappers knew Pro on a personal level, there were some who only knew him as fans of his music since he was a pioneer of the genre.
“From Le Club to Slaghuis to YFM to Soweto to Loxion Kulture to Backpack Rap to Gallo to IV League to TS Records to Dankie San to Rap Battles to the Charts to Superstardom to one of the best to ever do it. I am leaving a lot out. Horrible news. #RIPProKid,” tweeted Stogie T.

Sharpa, Robo, Pro, Devious, Hueman, Mr Fat, Flabba, Zweli Badela… ? didn’t think I’d be living in a world without a Prokid.

REST IN PEACE TO ONE OF THE GREATEST TO EVER DO IT. Gave me my break as a producer, gave me my break as an artist … There will never be another PRO.
… shocking.

I had all the opportunities to reach out, and make music with him … I kept delaying, kept getting caught up in whatever stupid shit I was doing … now he’s gone, forever. Shit is crazy.

“Celebrities?” Are you guys serious? We’re mourning as FANS. Like all of YOU. We didn’t know where Pro was personally. Like all of YOU. We didnt know how to reach. Like all of YOU. And now we’re reflecting on what he did for us. Like of all YOU! We all let him down. All of US!

I was really looking forward to continuing our joke with @DuncanSkuva. Could have been a very funny day for those with a sense of humor. But my heart just broke. I haven’t asked him, but I know Duncan was also, like me, heavily molded by the life and work of PRO KID. WE MOURN.
