Eminem to pay tribute to Proof with a new album
Eminem and Proof were good best friends. So it comes as no surprise to the hip-hop world that Eminem is paying tribute to Proof via an album--this is something I'll hope Em will do for Proof. "Proof's record label will release a new album next year by the rapper and Eminem confidante who was shot and killed during a dispute at an after-hours club. "Time a Tell" will feature 18 songs written and recorded by Proof during a 24-hour period in January. The D12 rapper was challenged by his friend Julius Myers, known as DJ Jewels Baby, to write and record an entire album in a day. The disc will document the session at Myers' home studio in Detroit. "It shows how serious Proof was about recording," Myers told The Detroit News for a story published Thursday. "Time a Tell" will be released by Iron Fist Records, founded by Proof. His debut solo album, "Searching for Jerry Garcia," was released in August 2005." {Source}
in all seriousness is this necessary?! I feel as though the tribute for Proof is a little bit too late...
