His efforts opened the door for a number of other talented artists to gain more exposure. The importance of Scoota to the Baltimore music scene, and culture as a whole, cannot be overstated. Scoota was an integral member of the Young Ballers Shinning imprint, for which YBS Skola is now carrying the torch. He was heralded for his Still in the Trenches mixtape series, as well as his freestyles over popular tracks like “Panda” and “Perkys Callin.”
He had been linked to Meek Mill, The Game and Diddy. Many artists from Baltimore have not had the opportunity to connect with established acts in the industry, but Scoota was a rare exception. Lor Scoota’s death shocked those living in the city and beyond. He was murdered in East Baltimore in June 2016, after leaving a charity basketball game. With his hit single, “Bird Flu,” Scoota was able to make a name for Baltimore music, in circles outside of the city. Lor Scoota’s name has become synonymous with the Baltimore rap scene.
