Proe is a name you may or may not be familiar with, depending on how long you’ve been listening to the Rec-League‘s music. Proe‘s last album “Perfect” came out in 2005 and received high marks accross the board. It even earned him an interview on the suicide girls site, as well as a fistfull of praise from many online critics… More recently, Proe contributed his song “Kop Cilla”, to the Rec-League “Season Two” album, released in dec 2009.

After a lengthy hiatus Proe is back making more music than ever. After recording and scrapping an entire album he made with DJ MF Shalem and starting all over, Proe is ready to make a splash once again with multiple projects nearing completion.

His “Whatever You’re On I’ll Take 2″ mixtape is part exercise, part flexing and all fire. Proe‘s signature style and supreme confidence come through like it never left on this newest release.

The first song from the project is “Famous” and is a light-hearted and honest take on some musician’s instant success. followed by “Not A Battle Rap” which is just that, Proe going in with no other goal other than murdering the beat. In Proe’s own words

“This mixtape is fun, this is me on my rap shit, honestly it couldn’t be more different than the music I’m making with shalem…”

Proe‘s versatility has always been one of his many strong points, and even on his “rap shit” Proe is able to display his humorous take on music, and maintain his outrageous lyrical ability at the same time.

Enjoy.
