Rosco P. Coldchain, born Amin Porter, is an American rapper hailing from North Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He gained recognition in the early 2000s, particularly for his work with the production duo The Neptunes (Pharrell Williams and Chad Hugo). Rosco P. Coldchain is known for his distinctive voice and gritty, street-oriented lyrical content. His breakout moment came with his guest appearance on The Neptunes' compilation album "Clones" in 2003, where he featured on the track "Hot."
