David Brown (born 1983), better known by his stage name Roscoe, is an American rapper.

He released his debut album, Young Roscoe Philaphornia, in 2003, with the album debuting at #148 on the Billboard 200.

Roscoe was initially introduced to hip hop by his older brother Kurupt, who, at that time, was signed to Death Row Records and working on his debut album with Tha Dogg Pound, Dogg Food. Kurupt flew Roscoe out to California and brought him to Death Row's studios to see him rap. Kurupt was impressed with what he saw and began meeting with his brother in the studio regularly, and eventually began writing his songs. He made his first appearance on his brother's album Tha Streetz Iz a Mutha, featuring on the vocals "I Call Shots" and "Girls All Pause" along with Nate Dogg. Daz Dillinger was impressed with Roscoe and helped to produce his debut mixtape, "When The Pain Inflict", released in 2001. Thanks to the positive reception of his mixtape, Roscoe signed with Priority Records and immediately got to work on his debut album, Young Roscoe Philaphornia, released in 2003. The album peaked at #22 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart.
