Scorey's Music Career Journey
Scorey's first song was "Freddy Krueger". It came out on September 1, 2019. This song caught the eye of rapper Polo G. Polo G saw it on a friend's Instagram story. That friend was signed to the same music label as Scorey. Polo G then reached out to Scorey on Instagram.
Just a few days later, Polo G asked Scorey to perform with him. This was at Webster Hall in New York City. It was part of Polo G's Die a Legend tour. Other rappers like Yungeen Ace, Luh Kel, and Toosii were also there. Around this time, Scorey quit his summer job. He worked as a janitor at Green Lakes State Park. This job helped him pay for his studio time and music videos.
While recording his song "Moods", Polo G asked Scorey to join his new record label. This label was called Only Dreamers Achieve. It was a partnership with Columbia Records. Scorey agreed and became the first artist to sign with the label. His song "Dior You" was the first one released under this new label. It came out on March 12, 2021. Later, Scorey was featured on Polo G's third album. This album was called Hall of Fame and came out in June 2021.
