"If you’re not already hip to the Scotty Dynamo scene, grab his new album and hear what everyone’s been talking about.
His beats will are great, and he’s got hilarious lyrics like “no that aint my number that’s the balance of my bank account.” - Parker Mason, Nineteen Ninety Never Blog

"...while Scotty does spit some mean rhymes, he does it over incredibly catchy and irresistible electro/pop tracks. Pop and electro fans can't dismiss his use of addictive beats and synths galore! And even for non-rap fans, you've gotta admit that his lyrics are clever and full of humor!"
"...it's clear this kid has a killer set of tracks already! Not too bad for a 20-year-old who writes and produces all his material himself. Looking forward to what he'll be creating in the future!" - Adam Tyler, EQ Blog

"Scotty Dynamo!!! If you don't know him yet, you'll definitely be seeing him all over MuchMusic/MTV any time now.

"Here’s our last installment in our little Canadian hip hop/rap exposé, but certainly not the least. I kinda saved the best for last…"
"Despite his age, Scotty’s been around a while and has managed to secure a pretty decent online following and fan base. He has released his first EP (check iTunes or Amazon) – and I’m pretty sure we’ll hear from him again. Soon." - Copycat, Audio Porn Central Blog

"I had trouble choosing what tracks to post because they’re all gold. Find the kid on MySpace, Twitter...buy his stuff on iTunes. Do it now, so you can tell your friends you were listenin’ to Scotty Dynamo before he blew up.
"After reading about him on Tzero I haven’t really stopped listening to Scotty Dynamo. It really doesn’t get much better than white teenagers making club raps about partying and living the good life. Seriously."
- Parker Mason, Nineteen Ninety Never Blog

Born and raised in Toronto, Canada, the 21-year-old producer and recording artist reflects an array of influences ranging from The Beastie Boys to Daft Punk. The result is an original, upbeat and energetic electro-pop sound with a proven international appeal.
For Scotty, being on camera isn’t a performance; it’s who he is. Over the past couple of years, Scotty has built a large online following by uploading original music videos, cover songs, and weekly video blogs to his popular YouTube channel. This consistent stream of content has attracted an international following and has enabled him to share his music and engage with followers from around the Globe.
Scotty has also taken his talent to the stage by performing at Canada's largest music festivals (NXNE, Canadian Music Week, and the Manifesto Festival). He has composed original music for major television networks and has regularly been featured as a guest host on various national television programs. In the fast-paced world of social media, Scotty’s popularity and fan base has continued to increase, proving that he is the complete package.
