Looking at ProKid
ProKid, a 37-year-old musical genius from Soweto, was known for his tongue-twisting lyrical delivery and sharp punchlines, which became hallmarks of his style. In the early to mid-2000s, when Hip-Hop was still in its infancy in South Africa, many artists tried to emulate American influences. While some found success, most attempts came off as cringe-worthy.
ProKid's breakthrough hit, Wozobona (Let Me Show You), propelled him to the forefront of the rap scene. It offered listeners an authentic glimpse into the life of an ambitious youth from Soweto.
Linda 'Pro' Mkhize has passed away at the age of 37. He is survived by his wife, Ayanda, and their three-year-old daughter, Nonkanyezi. His parents, Fikile Mkhize and Zwelakhe Kheswa, are also still living.
