Reginald Wilks
Tampa
With an excess of pure talent seeping through out his every movement, there is only one hip hop machine worth investing in, Prophit. This vibrant prize rapper prevails as an unrestrained lyricist above standard MCs. Far from a silver spoon lucky lad, Prophit was born Reginald M. Wilks. Hailing from the semi tropical but lurking with risk city of Tampa FL, Prophit could be found early on between a rock and a hard place on 42nd and Ellicot. Growing up in a city more known by outsiders as a tourist attraction only hindered the modest occupants and exposed a man to it’s own set of bleakness. Proph explored his elementary years with hip hop to avoid trouble, but trouble latched onto his soul as his circumstances grew dimmer.
In the midst of a gritty dope boy’s monsoon, Proph would later use hip hop to blow in the opposite direction by changing the rhyming climate on a larger scale. “The word struggle, has been an everyday factor of my life ever since I can remember. I have 1 sister and 5 brothers. My pops stayed around the corner, but he never even took the time to visit much less call. I’m really not even sure if I love him or not.” With no frequent viable options for a high school drop out with a dream Proph felt the crushing weight of failure looming nearby. Baring the pitfalls of attempting to hold down a blue-collar job to support the unrelenting burdens of child support and long calling jail sentences, Prophit was tired of coming out on the losing end. He arose determined to clinch his own fate and make success his destiny.
As the block continued to buzz of the greatness brewing, Prophit supplied the demand by releasing his debut project "09 Is Mine Vol.1: Tryin To Make A Prophit" which moved 13k units in a steady short time span, and still counting. Every major label began to take notice of the next big thing in hip hop, young Prophit. With just one listen it was clear his message’s would resuscitate the rap game’s dying phase, and allow it to rise from the ashes.
This emcee’s voice now began ranking higher in delivery and toting an immaculate flow that was now unstoppable. His Single "Doin My Thang" is putting airwaves in a state of panic. His efforts have placed him on the same stage as Young Jeezy, Young Dro, B.O.B. and other acts of notoriety. Proph’s own amazing performance has been described as a dire brush with hunger and resilience. Proving such as the winner of TJ's DJ's Tastemakers Got Talent Show 3 Champion, which lead to his performance at the 2009 4th Quarter Conference. Proph also won "09 Grinding artist of the year" at the Futurestar DJ's Award show and he was named "Artist of the day" by TBT Soundcheck on May 11th 2010. But wait, if this isn’t impressive enough then strap on your seatbelts because Prophit’s song “This My Club” can be found in the upcoming Robert DeNiro/Bradley Cooper film LIMITLESS. This very same single has single has broken into mainstream radio both at Tampa's 94.1 & 95.7. This song and a number of other hits by Prophit can be downloaded via your favorite cellular carrier as a banging ringtone because Proph was approached and also inked a lucrative deal with Vio Mobile.
Prophit’s virtue as an artist has grown exponentially having been featured on over two dozen mixtapes including DJ Noodles,DJ Suga D, DJ Knucklez, DJ Headbussa, DJ LuMoney, DJ CNazte, DJ Brucki, DJ Xfactor, DJ Hitman, DJ Face, DJ Infrared, DJ Leezy & DJ Prodigy. As a showman he connects to his audience because whether they know it or not, they’re connected to him. No begets No lambos just a man and his rap. He loves music and that’s his sincerest reward. Proph also loves his fans, and the people pour in their admiration as can be seen through the thousands upon thousands of followers on his Twitter and Facebook fan page likes. Bare witness to the hip-hop defiance changing the landscape of rap, Prophit.
