Scooby's Bio

Scooby's path began in the hip hop industry in 1994, begining to write songs and freestyle at house parties and open mics in the the St. Louis area. In 1997 as he became more involved, he started Explysic Productions.

Going from performances and DJ jobs for house parties, to DJ jobs at major venues, Scooby and Explysic Productions began to gain accreditation and momentum. Soon after, Scooby put together his first demo released promotionally entitled "Who Else." While still undergoing growth as an artist "Who Else" became a preview of what was to come from the album release of "Briefcase Full Of Boxcutters". Using the demo as a vehicle, Scooby began performing, and entering in various freestyle competitions inside and outside of the St. Louis area.

In 2003 Scooby released his first album entitled "Briefcase Full Of Boxcutters." The album was received with a warm response from everyone. It allowed him to gain a networking relationship with radio and others in the hip hop community. He had production from some of the cities greatest producers, a powerful concept, and displaye a vast versatility and range. This was the platform for the beginning of his press for a record deal.

Scooby is now working on projects for future release. He features numerous mix tapes in the streets to keep the buzz generated in support of his CD. Although Scooby has remained independent and unsigned his ultimate goal is to gain the representation and distribution of a major recording label.
