When did Proof (from D12) died?

Question

I just got to know about it few minutes ago. What happened? when? why?

Answer 1

He was shot to death on April 11 at the CCC Nightclub in Detroit. Apparently, he allegedly shot a war veteran, and the guy's cousin shot Proof killing him. The veteran later died. It's a real loss for Proof's wife and kids, Eminem (Proof's best friend), and D12. Let's hope that people learn from this tragedy that guns are dangerous and should be kept off the streets.

Answer 2

Oops, too late for 10. Actually, it seems like last year but it isn't. RIP Proof, it seems coincidental that Marshall had already said that the Slim Shady was to be no more. After losing his best Man & close friend, who knows if D12 will continue without him. By the way ,Murder is Murder, defence of another person, my foot. He could have shot him in numerous of places without killing him. Yes, Proof was wrong but the bouncer was way out of line too. He should lose his job if he hasn't already.

Answer 3

On April 11, 2006, evidence changed into killed by using a risky gunshot wound to the pinnacle at about 4:30am EDT (08:30 UTC) on the CCC club on 8 Mile highway in Detroit, Michigan after fatally capturing U.S. armed forces veteran Keith Bender Jr.

Answer 6

Answer 7

On April 11, 2006, Proof suffered a fatal gunshot wound to the head at approximately 4:30am EDT (08:30 UTC) at the CCC Club on 8 Mile Road in Detroit, Michigan after fatally shooting U.S. military veteran Keith Bender Jr.

Proof fired the first shots into Bender's head after taking his pistol and striking Bender several times in the face. The eruption is suspected to have been due to an argument over a game of pool and escalation. Proof was then allegedly shot by the bouncer Mario Etheridge, Bender's cousin. He was then taken by private vehicle to St. John Health's Conner Creek Campus, an outpatient emergency treatment site, and was pronounced dead on arrival shortly thereafter. Exact details of his death and the events that led to it remain unclear.

He was buried on April 19 in The Fellowship Chapel, Detroit to a full house of 2,000 with thousands mourning outside. Eminem and Obie Trice read eulogies at the service. An excerpt of Eminem's words: "I'm sure everybody who has ever met him, even just once, can testify to the fact that he illuminated a room when he walked in it. I believe that Proof loved people and people loved him. He was a magnet. He lured you in. You wanted to learn about him, follow his swagger. Without Proof, there would be no Eminem, no Slim Shady, and no D12." Many rap artists offered their condolences to Proof's family after the passing. Proof is survived by his mother Sherallene; father McKinley; wife Sharonda; sons DeShaun Rice and Elijha Abel; and daughters Katieva Walker, Nassan, and Nyeem.

Proof also shared a few verses about death. On the songs Loyalty, Get My Gun, and 40 Oz from the D-12 World album, and also Oil Can Harry from Proof's solo project, Proof's lyrics are seen by some as precognitive:

Loyalty - "[...]For life as D12, no ice and spreewells/ Every night that I chill in, I fight by free-will/ Knowing I can be killed/ Leaving my group, pieces of proof with a reason to shoot/ And a license to ill/ We lost Bugz and I'll be damned if we lose another man from our clan/ Without forcing our hand[...]"
40 Ounce - "I was raised by drunks so I became a drunk/ 80 Proof on this vodka, that's the name I want/ I'm in the club to beef, you gotta murder me there/ Only talk to a ***** - wit burgundy hair/ On the isle in the Vet, bumpin Seven Duece!/ See that top on that 40, you know it's comin loose/ See me on the ave daily, be running this ****/ If your chick get loud I'll G-Money that *****/ Packing mags and clips, I'll smash ya clique/ Because of Proof they put the "G" in the alphabet./ Smoking weed, drinking Henny, Remy and that Jimmy/ Don't worry if you run out, the corner store got plenty!"
Get My Gun - "Watch you holla when the hollow tips go through you're skin / I'm in love with the sin, tell Bugz i'mma see him. " (Bugz is a former D12 member who is also deceased.)
At the beginning of Oil Can Harry, Proof can be heard faintly sayin the words "Dirty Harry is dead, Dirty Harry is dead, now witness the birth of his son Oil Can Harry".
Proof also recorded a song - Proof Feat. 50 Cent - Forgive Me - in which he wishes for the Lord to forgive him all the sins he has committed in his life, which could (somewhat tenuously) be viewed as a desire to confess before his death.
Kurt Kobain - The song works as a suicide note, named after Kurt Cobain, the Nirvana frontman that supposedly killed himself. He says, among other things, "Sometimes i wish for my demise so i can kick it wit Bugz".
Forgive Me feat. 50 Cent - "Speaking of Bugz, give me a hint from above/If he now you know where I wanna be sent when I'm done"
Forgive Me feat. 50 Cent (Tribute to Proof) - This track is also a tribute to Proof at the begining of the song you can hear someone saying "Proof died about 5 hours ago" and is on the internet [citation needed]
However, rappers change and adopt new aliases frequently, sometimes even for the purpose of creating a rhyme for a single song. Also, Proof's lyrics generally contain varied and numerous references to violence, so it is likely that the lines were just simple coincidence.

Coincidentally, in Eminem's Like Toy Soldiers video, Proof is depicted being shot and killed in a drive-by shooting. It was made 1 1/2 years before Proof's death.
