Kid FrostKid Frost is a popular (and probably the first) Chicano (i.e. Mexican-American) rapper. He was first signed to an indie label and later moved to Virgin Recordshttp://www.virginrecords.com/ (that's where his biggest hit, "La Raza", came out - "Chicano, and I'm brown and proud"), in 1995 he was signed by Ruthless Records (Eazy E's label) (distributed by Relativity and later on by Relativity/Epic/Sony), in 1999 Frost was signed to a small independent label. Style-wise Frost moved from Electro Funk to a Latin-tinged kind of Gangsta rap that he's basically still into, although now often inspired by G-Funk (a more melodic kind of gangsta rap pioneered by Dr. Dre). 2002's 'Still up in this $#*+!' featured more Latin-tinged raps and G-Funk tracks as well as a hidden bonus rock track, "Cannabis". Thump Records released a Greatest Hits record ("Greatest Joints") in 2001, followed by "Greatest ^Joints 2" in 2003. Discography Early 12"s - Rough Cut (1984) (Electrobeat # 001)
