Hispanic Causing Panic

One of the best CDs from the early days of gangster rap. Good beats, most clean with very few curse words.

I really love his 1st CD I love the beats and sound!

It sure brings back memories from the 1990's. I don't think kid frost made any more music, but this one is a classic to own. I say buy it for your collection.

Racist? Hardly. Kid Frost was one of the first hispanic rappers who exploded on the music scene. With acts like Gerrardo trying to represent "La Raza", Kid Frost came out and let everyone know what life was like in East L.A.Admittingly Kid Frost seems to borrow from earlier black rappers like Big Daddy Kane, and has an angry pen pointed back at his own community (like Ice-T and Ice Cube), Kid Frost enters the realm previously occupied by black rappers (and Vanilla Ice).

great tunes

Great Cd. If you like the old school rap, this is the guy to listen to.

This album is classic, and honestly even though it's not representative of most Chicano rap that you hear nowadays, you can see how Frost set the stage with a couple of tracks, especially "La Raza". "La Raza" is immortal -- the first of its kind when it comes to Chicano rap. The whole album definitely has a very old-school feel to it, with the voice clips starting many of the tracks. As another reviewer mentioned, he seems to borrow from earlier black rappers. Some of the tracks his flow sounds a little like LL Cool J, because he has a hard and direct delivery, but then again many rappers had a somewhat similar sound at this time.Favorite Tracks:**Ya Estuvo - this one is really cool and pioneering for the time. Kid Frost delivers a rap line by line, first in Spanish then in English.**Homicide - Frost shows off his "storytelling" skills in this. He begins, "This is a dramatization.... Homicide, on the murder scene/ another frustrated gang-related senseless slaying/ victim, a young product of the projects/ system, the sad fact is that nobody's gonna miss him"**Hispanic Causing Panic - Even though the word Hispanic is like fingernails on a chalkboard to The Sisters Garcia, we recognize that the track was made a time with the word was new and Frost was just trying it out, so we forgive him. This track has a great flavor.Frost is way ahead of his time. His lyrics and observations are much more astute than the Chicano rap losers that are popular today like "Mr. Capone-E" and "Lil Cuete", but unfortunately the same can be said for most rap in general. If you'd like to take a trip back to the golden age and see how it all got started, check out this album.Recommended for: any hip-hop heads

This is for "la raza" which means my people is not racist by any terms. Those who say he is are just simply ignorant of the point of view of which he is coming from. Brown is beautiful is all he is trying to say and that he is also proud of his heritage and people which do not even know there roots and have no culture behind them could never understand because the only culture they know is what they see on TV. This doesn't come from the real people themselves. Kid Frost tells the truth on how hispanics live in East L.A.

I was listened Kid Frost and House Of Pain before the powerful Cypress Hill band.
