Meet Frost Da Great of TGDS Enterprises in South Central

Today we’d like to introduce you to Frost Da Great.

Frost Productions aka Frost Da Great

Is an inspiring up and coming music producer, recording artist, singer, audio engineer and songwriter who’s based out of Los Angeles. This creative juggernaut is determined, goal-orientated, sonically gifted, and very passionate. Real name Marlon Douglas, he grew up in a low-income community with a passion for music (Engineering, Producing, DJ’n, Songwriting & Singing) as a ticket to make it out his detrimental environment.

Started rapping at the age of 12, Frost was always inspired by talented mainstream artists/producers such as Kanye West, Big Sean, Timbaland, Pharell, Lil Wayne, etc. During lunchtime at high school, Frost would always challenge himself to write 16 bars every day. He always had an “Ear for Music” and started DJ’n with his Dad’s Friend “DJ Coleman” who taught him the basic tools to equalizing & mixing music. Frost dad died when he was 12 years old; therefore he’s always been independent and had to work hard for everything he’s ever purchased. Starting off, DJ Coleman let frost borrow a laptop to learn how to produce using FL Studio. Unfortunately, one day coming home from school someone broke into his house and stole that laptop which motivated Frost to work even harder to make it out of his atrocious community.

Frost then came up with the slogan “The Grind Don’t Stop” (TGDS) which he reminds himself no matter how many things he’s accomplished, he still won’t stop working hard. Partnering up with his high school friend “J-Vickz” who founded “Music Grind Records” (MGR) they chose to do everything independently, music videos, engineering, recording, distribution, marketing, & networking. Frost has already released two mixtapes and one EP throughout the course of 2014 & 2015 “The Isolation Mixtape”, “TGDS”, & “The Walk EP”. Frost has potential to be a Grammy award-winning artist if he continues to strive for greatness. His dreams and aspirations consist of making inspirational music that can inspire the world.

Frost has not only produced for local up and coming talents in Los Angeles but he also has Automated Dialogue Recording (ADR), & Boom Operator Credit for an independent film brought to you by Hip Hop Motivation “The Secret To Ballin” that consists of many mainstream artists such as: Chris Brown, Kelly Rowland, Mindless Behavior, Method Man, Timbaland, Travie McCoy, Snoop Dogg, DJ Quick, etc. His social media is also started to get the recognition he worked so hard for. Not only does he has a following of 11k on Twitter (@Frost_Music) but he’s also being followed by many mainstream artists in the game today like Lady Gaga, Serayah, Cali Swagg District, D Tall, & more.

Frost Productions placements resume is in process and is building. It will be announced when strong enough. Striving to make an impact to bring back true talent and originality in the music industry, nothing will stop him from giving it his all until those goals are accomplished. As Frost always quotes, “The Grind Don’t Stop”.

We’re always bombarded by how great it is to pursue your passion, etc – but we’ve spoken with enough people to know that it’s not always easy. Overall, would you say things have been easy for you?
This has been a perilous journey. I’ve been robbed, jumped by six people which led to me getting my jaw broken, shot at, lost my car due to DUI for being so depressed and drinking everyday cause I’m stuck in this environment. All of this just led to me becoming great. Forgiving them all and just leaving it up to Jesus Christ to guide me to were I need to be.

So let’s switch gears a bit and go into the TGDS Enterprises story. Tell us more about the business.
“TGDS” Which is an acronym that stands for “The Grind Don’t Stop” is basically my slogan to inspire anyone who has a goal and want to reach it. I have multiple business ventures, my production company “Frost Productions” is where I provide services such as: beats, mixing, mastering, recording, etc. My partner JVickz and I have our own independent recording label entitled “MGR” which stands for “Music Grind Records”. We provide services such as such as: mixing, mastering, beats, videography, promotion and basically everything that comes from a music company. All of my business ventures are being funded out of our own pocket but best believe anyone who is ever interested in investing in us will be very grateful in the future because the grind will not stop until I surpass what Jay Z did with Roc Nation.

Has luck played a meaningful role in your life and business?
I don’t believe in luck, I just believe in god and working extremely hard to reach your goals. God is connecting me with the right people to accomplish my goals sot ill just continue to work on my flaws, learn from my mistakes and grind hard.
