Scott got his start in music working for the U.S. and U.K. divisions of Death Row Records, the rap label once home to Dr. Dre, Tupac Shakur and Snoop Dogg. His work marketing releases such as the Dysfunktional Family (soundtrack), led to him becoming personal publicist for artists on the label including Danny Boy, and Jewell.
