ATL rapper Playboi Carti paid tribute to Scooter on social media.
Raised in Atlanta’s Kirkwood neighborhood, Young Scooter was among the first artists to sign with Future’s Freebandz imprint in 2012. He jointly signed with Waka Flocka Flame’s Brick Squad Monopoly one year later.
He first gained notable recognition with his Street Lottery mixtape (2012), led by the single “Colombia.” The track became a regional hit, with rappers Rick Ross, Birdman, and Gucci Mane hopping on the remix.
Scooter would later earn his first entry on the Billboard Hot 100 with his guest feature on Future and Juice Wrld’s “Jet Lag.” The track peaked at #72 and was certified Gold by the RIAA.
Scooter would go on to release 20 mixtapes within the course of his career, making a lasting impact on Atlanta’s Hip-Hop scene. His contributions to the game will never be forgotten.
