Pioneering Latino rapper Frost, aka Kid Frost has been named Vice President of Music for Goldmark Entertainment.

Goldmark Industries, which was founded in 1989, is entering the urban entertainment business with a focus on all aspects of the genre, including music, films, television, DVD and events.

Frost, who has been rapping since 1980, released his first 12 inch "Commando Rock" in 1984. The rapper found mainstream success in 1990 with his single "La Raza."

He was one of the first bilingual Latino rappers to have major success within the Hip-Hop landscape, paving the way for such rappers as Fat Joe, Cypress Hill, Big Pun and many others.

"The thing keeps my name in people's mouths is that I keep reinventing myself," Frost said. "I don't just keep on making the same music. I want to take bilingual Hip-Hip, a trend I was [on] the forefront of one step further, while still kicking vivid rhymes about the code of the streets with authenticity."

Frost released several albums including his debut Hispanic Causing Panic (1990), the follow-up, East Side Story (1992), Smile Now Die Later (1995) and When Hell.A.Freezes Over (1997), both of which were released on the late Eazy-E's Ruthless Records imprint.

Frost dropped his most recent release, Frost Angeles in 2005. The rapper attributed his longevity in the rap game to his rhyme skills.

"As I see the KRS-One's and the LL Cool J's still in it, I won't budge," Frost continued. "A lot of people might say that I'm too old. But I don't think it's your age or how you rap. It's your rap skills that keep you in the game. As long as we make that knocking Chevy music, we're going to stay in this rap game."

I bump some Frost shit, but he seriously fell off a long as time ago. Anyone seen that money, power, respect dvd, where Mad One, E-Low and Konnan are talkin shit on him. Even a piece where Lil One and Shadow are talkin shit on him, hahaha its pretty funny. So I guess this is a big move for him, business wise. Musically he cant be doin that well. Why would one of chicano raps pioneers be signed as a simple artist to Low Profile Records?

Both those CD's are classics. I might have to dig them out and give them a listen today.
