Nasaan just made waves with his latest Lyrical Lemonade Lunch Break Freestyle, where he name-drops Eminem and his late father, Big Proof, while confronting the pressure of living up to a hip-hop legacy.
A Standout Freestyle with a Deeper Message
Flowing effortlessly over a Timbaland-produced beat, Nasaan showcased his sharp lyricism and signature sarcasm. But beyond the clever wordplay, he tackled a subject that follows him everywhere—being compared to his father, Big Proof, and the expectation to revive D12.
“Ain’t your daddy Big Proof? You know Eminem, too.
Yes, you should redo D12, you’ll be Proof number 2.”
With this bar, Nasaan calls out the constant comparisons, making it clear he’s forging his own path in hip-hop. He shuts down the idea that his success comes from connections, stating:
“Bro, I don’t really even know the dude,” referencing his distant relationship with Eminem.
Building His Own Legacy
This isn’t the first time Nasaan has spoken on his complicated heritage. On his recent project, ERROR 404, he acknowledged his father’s influence but made it clear he is not here to be “Proof 2.0.” His feature on Lyrical Lemonade marks another step in proving he’s his own artist with his own story.
Lyrical Lemonade’s Role in Hip-Hop
Founded by Cole Bennett, Lyrical Lemonade has become a major platform for rising stars. Bennett has worked with Eminem on multiple music videos, including “Godzilla”, “GNAT”, “Doomsday Pt. 2”, and “Tobey”. Now, as Nasaan carves his own lane, a new chapter in Detroit’s hip-hop history is unfolding—one that belongs to him alone.
