Amary Lorenzo, known to many as Scrufizzer, is a talented English rapper, MC, singer-songwriter, and music producer. He comes from West London. He first became known for making grime music. Later, he gained fame for his unique "bashment-influenced" style and his ability to perform many different types of music.

Scrufizzer's Music Journey

Scrufizzer began his music career as part of a production group called Funkystepz. In 2007, he released his first collection of songs, called a mixtape, titled My First Steps. Many famous artists and DJs supported his music, including Zane Lowe, Annie Mac, Dizzee Rascal, Ed Sheeran, and Wiley.

Scrufizzer has performed with top artists like Wiley and DJ Cameo. He even opened shows for the famous rapper Kendrick Lamar across the UK. DJ Cameo, a well-known DJ from BBC Radio 1Xtra, joined Scrufizzer's tour as his DJ. He even called Scrufizzer his "protégé," meaning someone he mentors. In 2013, a music review claimed Scrufizzer had "the quickest flow in the game." This made him one of the most exciting new artists in the grime music scene.

Scrufizzer has also worked with many other popular artists. He appeared on songs like "Guts N' Glory" by Dizzee Rascal and "Werkin Girls" by Angel Haze. He also featured on "Kingpin" by DJ Friction & Skream, and "Southern Electric" by M. J. Cole. His unique "fizzy flow" mixes rap with modern grime music. This led The Guardian newspaper to name him one of the artists to watch in 2013.

Scrufizzer's first official song, "Rap Rave," came out on January 28, 2013. It was released by Stay Fizzy Records and Ministry of Sound. The Independent newspaper said that Scrufizzer was one of the "highest rated young MCs" in the new wave of music. "Rap Rave" was produced by Paperbwoy and showed off Scrufizzer's special 'fizzy flow' and rapping style. In early 2013, BBC 1xtra's Nick Bright thought Scrufizzer was the fastest rapper in the UK.

On May 21, 2013, Scrufizzer signed with Black Butter Records. He then released the song "Kick It" in October 2013. This song became very popular and reached number 43 on the UK Singles Chart. The music video for "Kick It" was filmed in Los Angeles. It was directed by Mister Whitmore and featured a fun tribute to the music video for "Addicted to Love" by Robert Palmer.

During the summer of 2013, Scrufizzer performed at many big music festivals. These included FSTVL, London's Lovebox Festival, Global Gathering, and the BBC Radio 1Xtra Stage at the Reading and Leeds Festival. He also performed at a Rudimental show in Ibiza. He even joined DJ Friction's set at Creamfields and SW4 Festivals to perform "Kingpin" and a freestyle rap.
