Proof is one of the most popular and richest Rapper who was born on October 2, 1973 in Detroit, Michigan, United States.

Originally known as Maximum, under the moniker “Proof”, Holton first rose to national prominence as a part of the rap group D12, a hip-hop group he was instrumental in forming. Early individual accomplishments include being featured in The Source’s “Unsigned Hype” column in 1999 and nearly winning the 1998 Blaze Battle. His first television appearance was in the video for Aaliyah’s “Age Ain’t Nothing But a Number”. In 2000, Proof toured with Eminem, Dr. Dre, Ice Cube, and Snoop Dogg in the Up In Smoke Tour, performing as a hype man for Eminem. He gained further exposure in 2001 with the release of Devil’s Night, D12’s debut album on Interscope Records. The following year, Proof collaborated with Dogmatic on “Promatic” and joined Eminem’s “Anger Management” tour in support of the release. He appeared in the film 8 Mile along with Eminem and Xzibit. Proof appeared as Lil’ Tic, a freestyle rapper who rap battles the lead character, B-Rabbit, played by Eminem. To capitalize on the publicity from the film, Proof released a six-song EP called Electric CoolAid: Acid Testing. Proof also starred in a cameo role, alongside the rest of D12 (except for Eminem), in The Longest Yard, appearing as “Basketball Convicts” during the credits.

Proof released a solo album featuring collaborations with 50 Cent, Method Man, Nate Dogg, B-Real of Cypress Hill, T3 of Slum Village, Obie Trice, King Gordy, Eminem and D12. Proof said that he did not produce the record with Shady Records or Aftermath because he wanted to “build his own thing”. Called Searching for Jerry Garcia, the album was released on August 9, 2005 on his own Iron Fist Records label in conjunction with Alliance Entertainment’s IDN Distribution, ten years to the day following Grateful Dead frontman Jerry Garcia’s death. It contained the prophetic song Kurt Kobain in which he wrote of his own death and ‘passing the sign’ to 1st Born as his protégé once he was gone. Proof has said that he considered Garcia to be a “genius” who suffered from common character flaws. Proof has stated his admiration for Garcia’s eclectic style, saying that Garcia “went against the grain”. Proof stated how he wanted to be remembered in an interview with SOHH.com shortly after his album release: “I want people to say that I was a true artist, that I did it best and stayed true to Hip Hop roots […] I’d want people to understand I did it for the love, not for the charts.” The album received favorable reviews, which commented on its “eclectic” and “introspective” nature. Despite its list of guest appearances and favorable reviews, the release did not make a significant impact on the charts. Proof also recorded a track, “How I Live,” with Twiztid for their album Independents Day shortly before his death. Besides these, he recorded during his Gold Coast tour in 2006, which was exactly two weeks before his death, a song with “Liquidsilva” from Australia.
