ScurtDae. If you don’t recognize this young independent artist’s name yet – you soon will

Rising multi-genre, independent artist ScurtDae (@ScurtDae) is a young singer-songwriter who invades the music industry with a fresh sound combination of HipHop, Pop, Emo Rap, and Melodic Rap creating music uniquely his own.

“My path into music is not unusual. It came from the need to express myself. In order to do that it required that my creative process be authentic. Being authentic means, I stay true to who I am – knowing that I am not perfect, nobody is. I was raised by a single mom who loved to quote Vince Lombardi to me – “Success only comes before Work in the dictionary”.  She taught me that it is important to continually educate yourself – and do what you love. Music is my passion – which requires hard work to keep growing. I write my own music and collaborate with other artists I love. I aspire to provide my listeners with lyrics that have real depth to them. Sometimes I write songs that are meant to just simply escape, using a variety of different issues or life situations. At times I think of the lyrics as a prayer. People love party music and upbeat songs, but sometimes when you actually want to listen to music, you need something else.”
