chico 

Term used mostly for male Latinos residing on the east coast, but also used around the US. This term was taken mainly for the prominent presence of Cubans and Puerto Ricans in the area. It contracts the use of ESE by many Mexican Americans, and sometimes is used by a male Latino to differentiate his non Mexican or mostly Caribbean and south American roots

Latino heritage rappers from the east coast called themselves chico or lil' chico, and include this term in the songs where a chicano rapper might had included ese or an African American might had included nigga.
