Hailing from East London, 26-year-old Scribz Riley has established himself as an acclaimed award-winning producer and songwriter over the last few years, impressively achieving two Grammy awards along the way.

After developing his own material in the studio, he is now ready to step out of the shadows and launch himself as an artist. With an exciting, edgy, and current sound that blends multi-genres with R&B and Rap to create something unique and fresh, Scribz Riley’s debut is a compelling and polished first single.

Written about where he grew up, East Side is an audio and visual split of two halves. The track opens with an instant R&B melody with soulful lyrics before slipping eerily into a dark beat and a confident rap flow, whilst the stylistic video brings the meaning behind the track to life, grabbing your attention and displacing your senses from beginning to end. Scribz says;

“I’m from East London, born & bred - this song is basically me paying homage to the place & inspirations that made me the musician I am today. Although I spend the majority of my time travelling, I still and will always remember where I came from”.
