Big up to you Rhandzu. The research that went behind putting this documentary is so dope.

[@RewindWR]

Thank you so much!

[@giftaction6373]

He battled the best of them and held it down in cyphers. He could freestyle, punchline, double triple entendres. Pro was a ryhme smith of note. He is my goat 🐐.

[@andiledlodlo2701]

The GOAT of SA rap! That indeed inspired a generation!

[@xolisasukwinimangali6325]

True that fam 🙌🙌😎

[@maxwelltreasuresegodi4013]

Prokid battled kaydo long before full clip came into existence. Full clip was found long after Pro released his 3rd studio album "Dankie san" under TS records. He ceased battling by then to focus on his career as an artist

[@RewindWR]

You are right. The battle was on DJ Fresh's Breakfast Show.

[@karabovilakazi5021]

Thank you for the kind words! According to Enzo, Pro's church was in Spruitview and he would walk from there (with a Bible in hand) to the event on Sundays.

His Last Album was done injustice... That album is mature, ghetto and perfectly crafted... RIP Khabazela

Continua is his best work, followed by Dankie San those are two of my favourite albums by Pro
