  • Linda Mkhize, also known as ‘Pro and ProKid, He is a Hip Hop artist who was signed to the Gallo Record Company after his independently released track ‘Soweto’ gained popularity. Prokid’s Heads & Taleswas a classic South African Hip Hop album, that captured the mood and attitude of that time, because that’s when local rappers  really started being proud of their mother tongue and spitting bars in Zulu and other indigenous languages. Pro wasn’t the first to do it, but he was the first to keep it really “hip hop” without breaking away from what the hip hop culture is all about. He told his story, a true South African story that most young people could relate to. His sharp tongue, dope Zulu raps & that grimy kasi flow are what propelled him to the top. Lead singles were Soweto, Woz' uzoba bona and Celebrate. Guest artists featured are Syd Money, Carla Diamond, Amu, Relo, Hoodlum, Nothende, Maggz and Sgebi. Production is handled by Dome, Beatmaker, Nyambz, Hoodlum, Dplanet, Amu and Draztik
