Wayne "Frosty Freeze" Frost (December 4, 1963 - April 3, 2008), also known as The Freeze To Please, was an American old school hip hop bboy known as a member of the second generation of the hip hop/breakdancing group, The Rock Steady Crew.
As a member of The Rock Steady Crew, he was known for his comedic, acrobatic and inventive style. His trademark move is known as, "The Suicide", also known as "The Death Freeze Drop" (a move that he created accidentally by attempting a poorly executed backflip and landing on his back).
His talents with The Rock Steady Crew were featured in movies such as Flashdance, Wild Style, Style Wars and The Freshest Kids and also appeared on the cover of The Village Voice in 1981. He was featured in early hip hop music videos such as Afrika Bambaataa and The Soulsonic Force's "Planet Rock" and Malcolm McLaren's "Buffalo Gals".
In 2004, he along with several other members of The Rock Steady Crew were honored at the VH-1 Hip Hop Honors.
Frosty Freeze resided in New York City, regularly making appearances at many hip-hop events throughout the New York metropolitan area and elsewhere in the country. He was stricken with an undisclosed illness during early 2008, went on life support on March 27, and died on April 3, 2008.
This is a hip hop mixtape I did for the for the 31st Rocksteady Anniversary. I got introduced to all the O.G and new jack Rocksteady members and other hip hop icons for doing this tape. For some odd reason I keep running into Rocksteady members on my travels. This mix features old school hip hop cuts from the 80's, 90's and some new joints from the millennium. It gots no track list so just download and listen.
