Hispanic Causing Panic is the debut studio album by American rapper Kid Frost. It was released in 1990 via Virgin Records and is considered one of the first Latin rap albums, setting the stage for later releases by groups like Cypress Hill. The recording sessions took place at Wildcat Studios and Wide Tracks in Los Angeles, with producers Tony G, Will Roc, the Baka Boyz, Julio G, and Kid Frost.
The album peaked at number 67 in the United States and at number 85 in the Netherlands, spawning two singles: "La Raza" and "¡That's It! (Ya Estuvo)". Its lead single, "La Raza", also charted in the Netherlands, Belgium, and the United States.
Critical reception
The Globe and Mail concluded that Kid Frost "spends more time ignoring his heritage than exploiting it, so the cleverly titled album mostly comes across as just another rhyme-and-swagger fest."
