Frost is such a veteran, he's an O.G. among O.G.s. Dr. Dre used to be his DJ back in the '80s. And when Frost (originally known as Kid Frost) pioneered in 1992 with his Hispanic Causing Panic debut, his son, little Scoop DeVille was only 2 years old. In 2009, Scoop broke through himself by producing Snoop Dogg's blockbuster "I Wanna Rock." Everyone from Jay-z to Ludacris eventually jumped on the track in various official and unofficial remixes. Then he gave Fat Joe two bangers in "(Ha Ha) Slow Down" and "No Problems," and laced N.O.R.E. with the Flavor Flav-inspired "Nutcracker."

Friday (March 26) marks the 15th anniversary of Eric "Eazy-e" Wright's death from AIDS complications. The N.W.A founder was a musical pioneer — not just for bringing gangsta rap to the mainstream, but because of how he revolutionized the business side of the game as well. He mastered self-promotion and pushed records independently with little-to-no airplay.
Eazy's legacy speaks for itself, and his impact still resonates. Some of the younger L.A. acts wrote in to MTV News to talk about Eazy's influence.
"Eazy-e was the pioneer and ambassador of L.A.'s street culture in hip-hop," Nipsey Hussle said. "He embodied the mind state and attitude of a young man coming of age in urban Los Angeles."

Scoop DeVille is about to explode this year, although he made his first rap-video cameo 20 years ago. When he was reaching his terrible 2's, Scoop's dad, legendary Latin Mc Kid Frost, held him in his arms in the video for "La Raza."
"That's all I was around, was straight music instruments, rappers, singers, dancers," Scoop, born Elijah Blue Molina, explained about his upbringing. "I got to go on the road as a young kid. I went to 'MTV Jams' when I was a kid. I got pictures of Fab Five Freddy holding me as a baby. I saw my pops go from nothing to having everything. When I was a baby, my pops had three jobs. He...
