Scottbox

$cottbox aka Scott Renton was the second last of five kids. Throughout his childhood he earned money running his own businesses with his brothers and by himself, while also taking that entrepreneur talent into adulthood. Scott moved into about 20 different homes in the Greater Saint John area before he was 20, and considers himself lucky because he has met so many great people. He has always aspired to either be at the top in business or music, or both. He along with his brothers are destined to prove you can do anything in this world if you focus, stay positive, respect others, be open minded, and be a hard worker, oh and don't let no one step on your toes (metaphorically speaking). Scottbox is determined to succeed in anything he does, and never one to throw in the towel.



$cottbox has been beatboxing since he was 8 years old, and was first inspired by Bobby McFerrin's track "dont worry be happy" in the early 90's.
