Prof on Being White in Hip Hop, Label Dropping Him for Old Tweets & More

[@zachstuart5508]

He ain’t cappin on being the best performer man. Hands down best show I have and will ever see. Please come back to bumf*%k Oklahoma

[@Eden-lj2tn]

Asheville show was incredible, too. The energy is insane!!

[@robinisbell8523]

Daaamn i grew up in Yukon

[@bryan_turner]

Absolutely. I don't see a lot of hiphop shows as mostly a metalhead, but I saw him open for Atmosphere and he absolutely killed it. Such a great live performance.

[@Chris_the_Roman]

Yeah I would have to agree. The Prof show that my fiancé and I went to see was the most energetic, crazy and unreal performance that I've ever seen in my life. Everybody in the crowd knew every word to every song. It was unreal

I worked at a cannabis growing facility. We would defold to prof. I never heard of him, until i moved to Illinois and worked for the cannabis industry. I feel like profs cds should come with a nickel bag taped on the inside of the cover. As your defolding on top of the ladders, and you have prof playing "big hungry monster", and everyone to your left and right is singing along, and we are all on the same page, getting work done. Something magical about those moments in life. You never realize the gravity in the moment.

[@AlexandraSiotos]

That is badass

[@travishill8156]

Any new comers/first timers watching this!!!!!! This guy is hands down the best performer in hip hop. First time I saw him he out performed the headliner by ten fold.

[@meseone920]

Classic story - Soundset festival he was at the show as he was with Rhymesayers Entertainment. Performer couldn’t make it 10 minutes before they were to go on. They turn to Prof and ask him to go on stage to fill time. He agrees and goes out there and shuts the show down for 30 minutes. You would have thought he was the headliner and the 40k people there were for him. Many left knowing who he was. One of the best moments in my many years going to soundset.

[@317LemonJello]

It was Busta who No Showed. And Prof was on Crutches that day too. That was my first time hearing him and have been a fan ever since!

[@travishill8156]

@@317LemonJello Lol. For me it was actually atmosphere. I mean slug performed okay, but it wasn’t on a prof level.

[@ivywhatever]

100% THE Goat

[@sunshynff]

Not a first timer, but I'm fairly new to Prof, and while no doubt he's a great performer, "hands down the best in hip-hop"?? That's a bit of an overreach, don't ya think? Or either your experience with hip-hop artists is very limited, please don't tell me Prof fans are heading down the path Tom McDonald's fans went down....lol. For real though, not tryin' to throw shade, if that's your opinion I respect it, but if you've ever seen Tobe Nwigwe's Tiny Desk performance where he does some of his best hits live with a full band flawlessly, or you look at a Lauryn Hill concert from back in the day, or a couple years ago The Roots and Common did a tour together, my god that was a good live show. Just sayin', there's a lot of greatness out there if ya know where to look. ✌💚

[@DtownDisciple74]

Idk if y'all heard but PROF is actually that dude 🫡🤓

[@Therapy._]

He is that dude

[@masterbaraman9372]

He's feeling brand new.

[@ShuckyDucky09]

He's literally nobody

[@masterbaraman9372]

@ShuckyDucky09 Last year, I mentioned Prof to a girl halfway across the world, and she knew exactly who he was. That's not how things go for nobodies. They don't tend to have hundreds of thousands of listeners on every platform or get followed by celebrities or have songs with them either.

[@aaronmorrill3716]

Right on brother!

[@MelTheMuppetslayer]

You know you’re in for one helluva story time when Prof shows up!!!

[@Simpayne68W]

Yeah if the braindead host could keep his mouth shut and actually let his guest speak instead of interrupting and speaking over him constantly.

[@tonysierra1]

Im only here to attest to the greatness ofa prof live show!

[@piperlee6557]

I'm about to go to my third, I can also confirm the vibe is 🔥🔥🔥

[@niftypixels]

Saw him back in May, hands down one of the best shows I've ever been to. Saw Joyner Lucas and Sleep Token after and while both great shows, PROFs was hands down the best.

[@mikecooper7755]

I saw him in Cleveland in like 2015, played to me and like 50 other people. The very next year sold out the place

[@diaperwip3]

Second that!

[@shanemussetter9254]

Yeah buddy PROF. Sending Gampo love in good vibes

[@matthewturbeville2072]

Prof is the best performer in hip hop (possibly any genre) right now. With just a stage, a microphone, and a beat I would put him up against anybody.

[@anthonyarcanumsanctumregnu9551]

I know but it made no sense

[@KNOTHEADMedia]

RA the Rugged Man is right there too. No lights, no production value, nothing but a mic and a dj and murders. Prof and RA would be a nuts show

[@williambell6611]

I’d throw Ren into that mix too. He’s incredible live

[@marklar51423]

Tool, Rob Zombie, and 90% of Jam bands put on shows beyond Prof. Do you go to concerts, like, at all?

[@matthewturbeville2072]

@@marklar51423they have just a dude on stage with a microphone? Or do they have full bands, light/laser shows, pyro, etc? As my comment said, take all of that away and I’d bet on prof being better than anybody. But me personally I’d pay to go see prof before I would go to a free phish concert.

[@Simpayne68W]

Adam is a joke but PROF is a king so I'll watch

[@Simpayne68W]

Actually changed my mind Adam like usual talks too damn much and can't even let the guest speak or answer questions without butting in every line or two. Damn bro sit and reflect in silence on how your wife is somewhere catching backshots and let PROF speak.

[@feralhomunculus]

Yea I wish the goofy mf would shut up and let him talk.

[@WinstonCropdusty]

The best thing about Prof’s music is that it covers such a wide range of emotion- man can make you laugh, vibe, and cry all in the same show. Not a lot of performers can claim the same these days

[@rawestinrino-liverawstreet5333]

I'm about to turn 39.. I feel this man. You change your life perspective a lot and try to think about what really matters in life and how you want to spend it...

[@spotticusmax]

I found prof a decade ago... Huge fan, huge supporter. His interviews give insight to his social intelligence, and his ability to truly relate... id love to see him be an interviewer and not the interviewee. I WANNA SEE HIM FEED THE DOGS!

[@bukko]

It really is a great time. first saw Prof in Duluth, MN where his dad tried killing himself I'm now learning,. Crazy. His video for Tombstones was filmed around the North Shore where I live too, and it sent chills down my spine. Dude is honest, and as real as it gets. That said, he fucking lit up this small town when it felt like it was -10 degrees outside with crazy wind chill a couple years back at an outdoor show. I've been a huge fan ever since. The Horse release party in the cities was lit as fuck too.

King Gampo ❤ Minnesota is wild! I moved because I could feel it coming. Didn’t want my boys to have to walk the same road I went down there so we moved out of state in August 2019. Few months later the pandemic hit and then the riots. It was sad to watch, all that the first year we moved away from our home 😔🙈 Then my husband introduced me to Profs music. Louisiana came out and I instantly became a Prof fan! ❤ we love Pookie Baby! My husband has been following him for YEARS! Blessed to have been introduced to the Gampo squad ❤
