Until now, Scotty has been a humble force brewing within the rap scene of the Dirty South’s Atlanta. Always laid-back and “Too Cool” (the title of his radio-played single), listeners are ready for Scotty’s newest project, F.A.I.T.H. (Forever Atlanta In The Heart), where he raps with a level of tenacity and confidence that ensures anyone who may have previously missed him, won’t.
Armed with media support from XXL, Fader, SPIN, LiveMixtapes, Hot 107, 94.5 and Ballers Eve; mixtapes hosted by the legendary DJ Scream and breakthrough DJ, Burn One. Close relationships with artists like Cyhi, Trouble, Young Dro and the fast-rising fellow Atalien Trinidad James, Scotty continues to push further into the public eye.
As part of #NewAtlanta, Scotty is the definition of what the various artists from different crews that identify with the “#NewAtlanta” trend represent: original, classic hip hop music with substance. It’s artists like him who are giving rap fans a reason to finally pay attention to new ATL talent.
Scotty grew up on the Eastside of Atlanta, raised by a single mother. Life wasn’t always easy for him and the block he grew up on, so the “hood” topics we hear in his lyrics are a reflection of reality for this artist, nothing we hear is contrived. These days, Scotty navigates through the industry as a young boss full of nonstop hustle, integrity, a flawless live performance harkening the days of the real MC.
