Hip-Hop is mourning the passing of another legend today, as news spreads of the passing of pioneer B-Boy Frosty Freeze, who died yesterday (April 3) at the age of 44. The former Rock Steady Crew vice-president, born Wayne Frost, died in Manhattan following a prolonged illness, though details of his medical battle remained unclear. “Frosty, within Hip-Hop, Frosty represents one of the last representations of what original B-Boy style was when the dance first started,” RSC’s leader Crazy Legs told AllHipHop.com. Though funeral arrangements have yet to be confirmed, Crazy Legs expects the services to be held as early as Tuesday. Frosty Freeze’s life will be celebrated at the Rock Steady Crew’s 31st Anniversary, set to take place in New York July 24-27. “Those who know me well know that when it’s time to do something, I’m gonna pick the biggest spotlight to shine on Frosty.”
