Rap Snacks
Rap Snacks are a variety of potato chips and popcorn that feature famous rappers. They are GeneRally sold in convenience stores, particularly in inner-city areas. They are advertised as "The Official Snack of Hip Hop."
Rap Snacks were created by James "Fly" Lindsay in 1994. Rap Snacks feature a wide variety of popular rappers, as well as several lesser-known or up-and-coming artists. Each has their own distinct flavor. The packaging of each variety features a cartoon version of the rapper on the front and a brief biography of the artist on the back.
In August 2007, Lil Romeo purchased the Rap Snacks Company for an undisclosed amount of money. The original creator of the snacks, James "Fly" Lindsay still runs the company's daily operations and aims to expand the Rap Snacks product line with Romeo's help.
Bad Boy recording artist Chopper Young City of the worldwide platinum rap group "Da Band," recently signed on as the spokesperson for Rap Snacks Pork Skins and Cracklins, with flavors such as Ham & Cheese and Sweet BBQ.
