Unfortunately for Prof, there’s an underlying seriousness to his lyrics that he tries his hardest to cover with layer upon layer of party-perfect beats and rhymes. Growing up on the South Side of Minneapolis, Prof matured in step with the local hip-hop scene. In his 24 years, he’s seen some shit that can’t help but escape from his memory and into his songs, lending his lines the kind of wisdom that can only be born on hard city streets. He started free styling in eighth grade and, although he likes to have fun with his music, the swiftness of his rise to local fame shows how seriously he regards his rap career.
A rowdy young buck who loves a good time, Prof wants his music to inspire others to party it up with him. In a world where credibility is currency, Prof sticks a middle finger to those who feel hip-hop should be straight-faced and serious.
“Everyone’s trying to be a preacher or a politician— telling you how to live your life,” he says. “I’m not running for Senate. I’m doing this for fun and I don’t watch my mouth.”
Prof’s debut solo album, Project Gampo, definitely made a lasting impression on local music critics and hip-hop heads. “Prof is wall-to-wall here in all his glory, with clever one-liners out the a**, hyperactive and delicious vocab spills popped like collars- picture a supreme smarta** with gorilla swagger and a mouth as fast as his mind… Point blank, this kid’s got more flavor and flow than all five of your favorite MCs combined.” (City Pages, May 12, 2008)

Prof Lyrics

Beat made by Mux Mool (R Lindgren)
Don't know what time it is. I'm happy bout it.
I lost my phone. I'm happy bout it.
Don't know who she is. I'm happy bout it.
Bad to the bone. I'm happy bout it.
Holy fucking matrimony, I found my wife on top of the bar twerking
Meet at the altar in the middle of the dance floor
Don't know how got here, wouldn't have it any other
panty lover, Danny Glover, OK
Got her goose wet, whoody whoody whoo
She's a juicy fruit, I'm a loony toon
Pack of wild wolves looking for the supper,
shut the fuck upper, pucker up lover
Its reported that four out of five people, mammal people
and they stupid

Now get the fuck up
Thank god I'm losing it Blah blah blah blah blah blah
I need to grab a hip, shit maybe grab a thigh
Buzzin, Mr. Mosquito has an appetite
Jimminy crickets fist full of drink tickets,
blow the king kisses got bed bunk bitches
Holy smokes wrote told ya so on a post it note
I'm coast to coast this year I'll be on the Oprah show
But currently I'm urgently pursuing surgery,
give me lobotomy i'll wake up in New Jersey
Miss Mississippi be yippee kai
Kai yippee yo M-I-S-S-I-S-S-I-P-P-I
I solemnly swear that I'm a wild one
eat, shit, fornicate until the child come.
Come, come one for all - where they come from?
Reality undone, party til the sun come
Its reported that four out of five people, mammal people
and they stupid

In Prof's song "Galore," the chorus repeats the phrase "It's reported that four out of five people, mammal people, and they stupid. Now get the fuck up. Thank god I'm losing it. Blah blah blah blah blah blah." This phrase highlights the sense of chaos and confusion that pervades the rest of the song. The verses describe a wild party scene, with the singer losing track of time, his phone, and the person he's with. However, he's happy about all these things. He also describes finding his "wife" on top of a bar, and proposes that they get married on the dance floor.
The lyrics create a sense of anarchic celebration, where anything goes and the lines between reality and fantasy blur. The references to Jiminy Cricket and Danny Glover suggest a playful sense of absurdity, while the image of "a pack of wild wolves looking for the supper" hints at a darker mood beneath the surface. Overall, the song captures a moment of joy and release, where inhibitions are left behind and anything seems possible.
