Watch out for Snow Tha Product, an aspiring Latina rapper just making a new for herself in the bustling hip-hop scene.

And again - another up-and-coming emcee inspired by the infamous Detroit "Rap God," Eminem.

In a recent interview with VladTV, the 27-year-old Atlantic Records artist explains that she initially started busting rhymes during tough times. That's when Slim Shady entered the picture:

"I just so happened to get into Eminem right around when I was going through a lot of stuff... So the way that he made me feel or like Lauryn Hill or Big Pun or Missy [Elliott], the way they made me feel, like I wanted to do that."

The "Drunk Love" beauty (real name, Claudia Alexandra Feliciano) is proud to represent the Latino community within this "mainstream" industry of "new wave" female rappers:

"I noticed that there was no Mexican chick that was rapping that I could be like, 'Wow, I can relate to that.' There's a lot of stuff that goes on with being first generation Latino that nobody's really expressing at least in the way I think it really should be expressed. So I'm kinda filling the void for now."

Fun fact? She ditched the stagename "Snow White" because of Disney's "stronghold" on the character. The "Holy Sh*t" singer finds that pretty ridiculous, considering the princess' Grimm fairy tale origination:

"To me, it's like how are you gonna just steal a story or whatever I don't know," Snow muses. "Probably paid like 20 pesos for it, whatever happened, and then blame people when they also want to use it? You're not that nice, Disney. You're not that nice f*cking Mickey."

Ha.

Meanwhile, 50 Cent just announced that Em will be featured on his upcoming album, Street King Immortal. Exciting stuff for "The Monster" superstar.
