Even though Latin tap music did non pull together a great deal interior attention up until the 2000s (with some exceptions like Cypress Hill and Big Punisher), America's Southwest e'er has seen a number of Latino/a rappers, like California's Brown Boy, contend for wireless airplay with widely known artists. Brown Boy's "Elvis" slow jam topped many wireless outlets' favourite playlists and appeared on Billboard's Top Rhythmic 40 in 2006. Hailing from Blythe, CA, Brown Boy earned his refer from his baby-faced look and Chicano pridefulness. Although his superlative influence was alternative hip-hop radical Lighter Shade of Brown, Brown Boy's number 1 deuce albums, Change the Game and Represent the Brown, were filled with hardcore Chicano raps. However, the positive responses received from the radio-friendly single "Succeeding 2 U" of the latter record album positive him to be more than of himself in his medicine. In August 2005, he released the Livin' Shady album, which contained "Superman," on Aries Music, distributed via EMI Latin. Still palmy from the exposure of Livin' Shady, he released Chicano Rap Riderz in July 2006.
