Livin' Proof is the debut album from Gang Starr affiliates Group Home. The album featured the hit underground single "Supa Star" and the production work of DJ Premier. The album is known both for the superior instrumental work and the interplay between the advanced and highly original rhymes of Lil Dap and the more oldschool block party rap of Melachi the Nutcracker. It is widely considered to be Premier's most focused work to date but is often overshadowed by his work with more proficient emcees. Premier produced all the album's songs apart from "Serious Rap Shit" and "4 Give My Sins," which were produced by Guru and Big Jaz, respectively.

"Supa Star" also appeared in the soundtrack of the 2008 video game Grand Theft Auto IV and is prominently featured in the movie Boiler Room.
