He died in a Miami hospital on Thursday after suffering a medical condition..

He was widely considered America's FIRST Asian Rapper where he and 2 live crew bursted into the Miami hip hop scene in the mid 1980's

Fellow crew member Uncle Luke tweeted about his death and said "y Condolence goes out to the family Chris Wong Wong Fresh Kid Ice of the 2 Live Crew who just passed away people we just lost a legend"

Rick Ross also sent a tribute with "Dam! Just got a call we lost 2 Live Crew legend Fresh Kid Ice this morning! RIP"

2 Live Crew formed alongside Mr. Mixx and Amazing Vee that made explicit songs such as "Me So Horny", "What I Like" and "Throw The D"

Their most popular album is As Nasty As They Want To Be released in 1989 that the US government at the time deemed it legally obscene

The group was arrested in 1990 after police deemed one of their live performances obscene and lewd and referenced their next album in 1999's Banned in the USA and sampled Bruce Springsteen's Born in the USA..

Fresh Kid Ice was the only member to appear on every 2 Live Crew album and their last album released in 1998 caleld The Real One.

Christopher served 4 years in the Air Force before entering the music world and formed his label Chinaman Records

He released Freaky Chinese in 2004 and made several appearances with Flo Rida

In 2015 he released a memoir called My Rise 2 Fame: The Tell All Autobiography of a Hip Hop Legend.

He said of the current state of Asian Representation "The Asians were there in the beginning of hip hop, but as DJ's. We've been in the background and stayed behind the scenes but we learn from our mistakes. A lot of people see us as being passive, but sometimes being passive means that you're learning. Righ now, i see us right there with everyone else. As an Asian Rapper, has to just come along and do it big"

He had a stroke in 2008 and 2010 that impaired his speech and movement but learned to walk and talk again all by himself...
