  • An easter egg behind his line was "Punish Rabbit Or Obsolete Future", the line is an abbreviation to "P.R.O.O.F", a name for the rapper himself who played the character, Proof.[1]
  • Proof was also the clear inspiration for Future because he was the organizer of "rap battles" in the movie just as Proof had done for years in Detroit.[2]
