About

Rasheeda Buckner-Frost (often stylized as RaSheeda) is an American businesswoman, rapper, and television personality.

Born in Decatur, Illinois, Rasheeda moved to Atlanta at 14 and later graduated from North Clayton High School. Soon after graduation, she started her music career as a member of the female hip-hop trio Da Kaperz, which received attention in Atlanta in 1998. In 2000, she launched her solo career.

On March 27, 2001, she released her album Dirty South, through D-Lo & Motown Records. The album featured guest appearances from Pastor Troy, Thugz Nation, Nelly & Re-Re. The album achieved some notoriety, due to the success of her first single “Do It”. Dirty South would place Rasheeda firmly in the southern hip-hop genre. Rasheeda further refined her sound with her second album, 2002’s A Ghetto Dream, an independent release under her label D-Lo after leaving Motown Records. A Ghetto Dream features faster rhythms, bolder beats, and assistance from Lil’ Jon and the Eastside Boyz. In 2004, Rasheeda was featured on Petey Pablo’s single “Vibrate” and Nivea’s single “You Like It Like That”….
