Kid Frost gets $150 MILLION to make HipHop movies and more

Rapper Frost (aka Kid Frost) is heading up a new Hip-Hop Company that has secured over $150 million to fund production for movies and television programs in 2012.

X-Change has teamed with Frost’s Old West Entertainment to produce and distribute a slate of about 15-20 feature films in the $3-million to $15-million budget range.

According to Frost, born Arturo Molina Jr., Old West is a rising Hip-Hop conglomerate that develops music, television shows and movies.

“The thing that keeps my name in people’s mouths is that I keep reinventing myself,” Frost told AllHipHop.com. “I don’t just keep on making the same music.”

The company, which also specializes in talent management, production, and finance organization, also plans on representing high-profile directors, producers, writers, and entertainment companies.

The new company plans to distribute a slate of 15-20 feature films in the $3-million to $15-million budget range.

I didnt even remember this guy until this thread was made.

Im willing to bet I'm going to end up watching one of those movies off of a red box one day and find it to be a horrible movie.

but hes making a lot of money from this, so now hes one of the GOATs. :manny:

nah breh... the problem with black folks is that our own people put us into a box with the types of movies made...and when we try to step outside of that box, blacks aint fukking with it.

there are like $300 Million worth of black films just sitting on ice, cause no major production company wants to greenlight them, cause of how fickle black audiences are.


if Frost is smart, he'll make LA based movies, that don't directly cater to any specific niche...but still maintain a considerable amount of minorities in the movies.... and not just take the easy way out and make low budget cholo hood movies.

He can make low budget cholo movies and do fine

tha Latino population is huge and growing, that's where all tha money's at, black folks money making in entertainment days are numbered

we bout to have soccer as tha new American pastime, and reggae tone/techno all in tha clubs

he can, but he'd fare even better making low budget movies just simply showcasing the minority talent in LA... cause he wouldn't just be boxing himself in.

you can only rehash american me,dangerous minds,stand and deliver,colors,a better life and blood in blood out so many times.

black folks need to stop thinking that the way to succeed is by catering exclusively to their own...Will Smith and Denzel didn't get to where they are at,cause they only wanted to be in movies for black people.
