When he wasn’t watching Yo MTV Raps or Pump It up, Scarub, like many other L.A. hip-hop heads, grew up listening to the all hip-hop radio station, KDAY.  It was during these early years that Scarub first gave himself the name Quaz (The kid who did), and later Mudd Foot, before settling on Scarub as his emcee moniker. As a student at L.A.’s Hamilton High, Scarub hooked up with fellow students Eligh and Murs and the trio formed the 3 Meloncholy Gypsy’s (3MG). Scarub and the rest of 3MG eventually made the move up to the bay area where he hooked up with the Mystik Journeymen and joined the Living Legends crew. In addition to his contributions to the Living Legends albums, Scarub has released five solo albums and two albums with 3MG.
