Scholar released his debut single off his upcoming project “Directors Cut”. Having been MIA for almost eight months, Scholar released “Moved to LA” as his re-introduction to the music world.

Produced by ILL MAESTRO, the 3:17sec song includes a variety of techniques showcasing Scholars talents in the R&B and Rap genre.

The 25-year-old Richmond, VA native attributes his love for music to his upbringing.

“I started singing in church when I was 8 but started recording when I was 14 when one of my friends and I produced our first mix-tape. When I was 16, I founded a dance song called “Strutta Walk.” The beat was from a MySpace that allowed me to use the song after a little competition. The only requirement was that I record the song on their website.

Together we made our own song, put it on YouTube, and it generated a little bit of a buzz! I even grabbed the attention of the producer, Teddy Bishop! He is a platinum producer for Latoya Luckett’s song “Torn.”  After speaking to Teddy, I became serious about music and my parents even believed in my dreams! “
