Rough Cuts
Growing up my favorite radio station was always Q1047. It was mostly hip hop and RnB and since it was based in the Ventura/ Oxnard area in southern California it had a heavy latin influence. Lots of freestyle and latin rap... Wait haven't I already said all this before? Actually, yeah I did. Go here for a little freestyle/Miami Bass mix I'm pretty proud of and more Q1047 musings. Plug plug. Anyway, one of my favorite latin rappers (not that there were a lot to choose from) was Kid Frost, the creator of this low ridin superjam here...
More recently though I learned that not only was he a early 90's latin kingpin, but he was also a mid 80's electro breakdance rapper and a card carrying member of Uncle Jamm's Army. Here's a couple jams for you pop to but just be careful with your back okay? We're not as young as we used to be.
Kid Frost- Terminator (Vocal Mix)

Kid Frost- Rough Cut (Dance Mix)
Kid Frost- Rough Cut (Instrumental)
(with scratches by Yella of NWA fame!)
1984
C-Jam & Kid Frost- Commando Rock (Battle Mix)

(nothing extra to say about this one!)

definitely familiar with "la raza", but never knew he made early 80s jams, let alone that I-F plugged it. sooo rad, big thanks on this.
Nada problema!
Some choice selections there, been after 'Terminator' for what seems like years after hearing it on I-F's mix, so cheers for that!*!
You might want to check out NWA's 'Something 2 Dance 2' which is tacked on the end of the extended version of 'Straight Outta Compton' LP. I know what you might be thinking, but it's nothing like the rest of the album, it's such a funky electro-ish number that won't fail to get you smiling!*! Trust me on that!*!
wasn't ice-t the rapper on these?
No Ice-T here though they do have some striking similarities. Kid Frost's wikipedia even says he named himelf as an homage to the Ice-man himself.
thats for clearing that up for me. i had that confused for a while now.
meant to say thanks, oops
