Introduction to the new AL SKRATCH
Bio
AL SKRATCH
The rap rebel
Born in Brooklyn, raised Uptown, Al Skratch came up at a time when urban decay, crime, hopelessness, artistic expression, and music diversity was blooming in New York City. This environment set in motion his personal, artistic, and musical journey.
Al paid his dues and earned his respect as a DJ Uptown. Local MCs nicknamed him "Al Skratch" because of his ability to prolong the rhythm of the beat through the technique of scratching and his uncanny understanding & precision to "move the crowd".
Al Skratch is best known from his work as a member of the Billboard charting rap duo, "Ill Al Skratch". Their breakout hit single 'Where My Homiez" earned them a national hip hop following, that is still loyal today. "I'll Take Her" featuring Brian Mcknight further expanded and broadened their fan base. Ill Al Skratch added several soundtracks to their repertoire namely, "Eddie", "New Jersey Drive", and "Panther".
Al decided to step away from the industry for several reasons. He has recently announced his return with his first solo debut "Mr. Constant"... The world will witness Al's growth and maturity along with a new look, persona and sound that is the "Deep Soul of Hip Hop".
