I don't think there is any African rapper more lyrical than ProVerb man. It's just that the world is dumb that's why such MCs like Prov are hardly recognised. ❤

One of the most lyrically adept songs of all time. The usage of the English language here is exceptional, knowing that English is an extremely broad language, the plays on right and left is insane.

This is one of Pro's dopest verses. Proverb is one of my all time favourite MC's, I listen to his verses more than many other cats from America., he's a lyrical wordsmith of note - personally i take many elements from him when I write (wordplay, storytelling... etc). Shout out to you Pro! But yow, i cant believe this song has about 30000 views wen Caracara ( by KO) has over 1million views !! Aai the world we live in mara lol.
