DJ Scratch - USA

When it comes to turntable bypass surgery, DJ Scratch has NO equals. He
is the man who provides the flamboyance to Jay Z's & now 50 Cent's
stage show. Through the years with EPMD, Scratch has been driving audiences into a frenzy with visual and technical routines far beyond mortal DJ's. For example; Disrobing down to his undees without missing a beat or, his most famous routine cutting Big Daddy Kane's "Friday the 13th Imma play Jason" line as he emerges from beneath the set wearing a hockey mask. If that's not enough, he is the only DJ to be granted a 20 minute solo performance at every
concert.

DJ Scratch has performed in every market throughout the world; such
places as, Latin America, US, Canada, Africa, Australia, Switzerland,
France, UK, Italy, Sweden, Amsterdam, Norway, China & Japan. DJ Scratch is
one of THE MOST Recognized & Respected Exhibition/ Tour & Club DJ's in
the world.

Shortly after winning the New Music Seminar Battle For World Supremacy
in 1988, he joined the RUN DMC Run's House World Tour. Scratch was
befriended by the late RUN DMC's DJ, Jam Master Jay. He and Jay exchanged
techniques and Jay liked Scratch's style. When the tour ended Jay recommended Scratch to EPMD because the group needed a DJ with flair. After the group saw him do
his tricks at the first show, they hired him on the spot.

Scratch has appeared in the movies; "Juice", "The Original 50 Cent",
"Fly By Night", "Rhyme & Reason" & the blockbuster director Spike Lee's
controversial film "Bamboozled". Also Coca Cola commissioned Scratch to
produce & star in one of their commercials, "3 DJ's".

Since then Scratch began to pursue his second love, producing. He is
known mostly by his timeless DJ anthems "Funky Piano" and "Scratch Bring
It Back". Scratch has produced tracks on 75% of Multi Platinum Artist
Busta Rhyme's four (4) Albums (All 4 albums went DOUBLE PLATINUM) thanks
to Scratch's knowledge of what the world yearns for in music. Some of
DJ Scratch's accolades include the
Grammy nominated single "Gimmie Some More", as well as the hits "Do The
Bus a Bus", "Party Going On Over Here" & "Cha Cha Cha". His long
production roster includes Multi Platinum & Gold selling artists such as, 50
Cent, Jay Z, LL Cool J, Snoop Dog, DMX, Beanie Segal, Cassidy, Method
Man & Redman which makes DJ Scratch responsible for the sale of over 50
Million albums.

Currently, DJ Scratch is filming a Scratch-umentary celebrating his
illustrious career that spans over 20 years. Some of the featured artists
in this documentary are EPMD, Jay Z, Busta Rhymes, 50 Cent, M.O.P.
Grandmixer DXT, Grandwizard Theodore, DJ Premier, DJ Clark Kent, Redman &
Mobb Deep are just a few of the Hip Hop elite that embraced Scratch's
amazing talents.

Scratch has always preached to the new generation of DJ's that in order
to become a complete DJ, you must "crawl before you walk". Meaning that
a DJ should learn to mix & blend before you learn to scratch & cut. By
learning in this order will give you the ability to master all sectors
of Djing. "SO ALL DJ'S SHOULD, START FROM SCRATCH"
