Her parents were undocumented Mexican immigrants. She later moved to San Diego. After graduating high school, she briefly attended San Diego Mesa College to study to become a social worker, but soon dropped out to pursue her music career. Snow was involved in music since an early age. When she was 6, she appeared in school talent shows and performed with her grandfather's mariachi band in Redwood City. She got her first touch with hip-hop when she moved to San Diego. As a teenager, she started freestyling with her friends. Soon, Snow got introduced to a person with recording-studio connections, through her mother, and started recording songs. When she was 19, she considered taking music seriously and decided to pursue a career as a rapper. She got her name from Disney's character Snow White. Initially using the name Snow White the Product, she had to change it to Snow Tha Product, when Disney claimed copyright infringement. After recording a number of songs in Spanish, she caught the attention of Mexican artist Jaime Kohen. They recorded a collaboration song, titled "Alguien," which became popular in Mexico and appeared on Kohen's album Fotosíntesis. 2010-11: Breakthrough and Unorthodox: In 2010, Snow moved to Fort Worth, Texas and began working with Houston manager David Gaona with Street Science Ent. She performed for two consecutive years at the South by Southwest festival. On October 26, 2011, Snow released her debut independent album on Street Science Ent. Unorthodox.
The singles "Drunk Love" and "Woke Wednesday" became viral hits. As of 2013, "Drunk Love" has over 1.3 million views on YouTube. Her real breakthrough came with the song "Holy Shit." The 90-second-long song received acclaim and was featured on 50 Cent's site ThisIs50.com. The success of her songs caught the attention of three major record labels, which got in contact with her - Sony, Universal and Atlantic. She eventually signed to Atlantic and is preparing to release her debut studio album under the label in 2013. Adam Bernard of RapReviews.com, impressed by her work, went on to write "Snow may very well be one of the leaders of ... a bold new era of female emcees." 2012-present: Good Nights & Bad Mornings: In 2012, Snow appeared on songs by major artists, such as DJ Paul and Krizz Kaliko. In November, she performed at the ABN Reunion concert in Houston, Texas, among rappers Trae and Z-Ro.
