His name is Mr Scratch Hook and he was born and raised in Queens (southside)..His love for music goes back into the late 70's, the day he heard "Rappers Delight" on the radio it completely blew his mind. This was a new concept for a 7 year old but he quickly learned that he had a good knack for rapping. Soon after he started Dj'ing and realized this was something he was good at, he joined a group
called "Xklusive Kutt". A couple years later all members went their separate ways with E.rex moving to miami florida in 1988. There he hooked up with a local group called "The Latin Connection" T.L.C. They soon began to record and landed a deal with Henry stone of Hot records releasing a single called "Respect" before the Real Roxanne. Things soured extremely fast with the Harry Stone but they met a label mate in M.C Mighty Rock of the infamous "Double Deuce". They decided to collaborate on a new venture and Elemento Creativo (Creative Element) was Born.This collaborative effort spawned an album called "A New Style/Un Nuevo Estilo" which was a spanglish/bass rap album. with the lead single called "Esta Caliente" they would set miami on fire with its infectious chorus and pounding bass. They did show after show all over miami with overwhelming response from the fans. After that successful run everyone went their separate ways. From the late 90s into the middle 2000s he stayed low key simply solidifying his sound. In 2007 he opened a studio to continue on this journey we call the music business. In 2010 he compiled a Cd of various artists with Supa DJ Exile called "the Truth be Told" and "The Top of New york" mixtapes. E.rex forged forward in 2012 with another partner called Unlisted Productions to produce what would be called "Art*illery". A platform for a collaborative group of emcees to showcase their sounds on a record and eventually make a name for themselves. In 2017 as a solo producer working with Chris Rivers,Lega-C, Mikey-D on a song called The Conquerors and in 2020 made 3 singles with King Magnetic. In 2021 he just finished scratching,mixing and mastering a new album by Mic mountain called "Mas Piraguas" where he also produced 4 songs and provided all the scratching and cuts.
