Scratchylus Rhymes was born Antony Ricardo Brathwaite in the London Harlesden district but moved to Jamaica in 2011 to pursue his musical dream with the help of his girlfriend Hanife Hussein.

D.O.B: 19/04/1964

For 'Reset The Mindset' the singjay collaborated, among others, with Sizzla, Bushman and Kiddus I and during live shows he's often backed by musicians of Earl 'Chinna' Smith's Inna De Yard project. Scratchylus' daughter Empress Reggae is also featured on the album, proudly performing in a reggae meets dub poetry parlando reminiscent of Mutabaruka ('Our Story', 'Who Built The Pyramids'). Stylistically, Scratchylus constantly flirts with the golden age of reggae. Some tracks are a reminder of nineteen seventies roots (the beautiful title song 'Reset The Mindset' over the Hot Milk riddim, Gregory Isaacs' 'Slave Master' featuring Ras Marlon, Dennis Brown's 'A True' with Bushman), while other songs are inspired by early nineteen eighties dancehall ('She's Mine', a nice version of Michael Jackson's 'The Girl Is Mine', which Scratchylus transformed into: "The dancehall girl is mine...", or 'Choose Your Lover Right', a reworked version of Alton Ellis' 'Too Late To Turn Back Now'). His rather eccentric stage outfits (colonial pith helmet, costumes featuring ankh-signs) are also inspired by an era when reggae artists dressed slightly more colorful (e.g. Steel Pulse). After completing a full album with 13 songs on it he went on tour to Gaabmbia with the likes of Sizzla Kalonji,Julius Garvey,Mutabaruka and many more.He then came back to where he was born and completed a full university tour covering 37 universities performing his hit songs "Reset The Mindset" and "Our Story". He went back to Jamaica for 8 months and completed 2 hit songs "Sweet Child" and remixed "Woman Want De Loving With A Little Reggae" He has visited France to perform at Reggae Sun Ska Festival with the Inna De Yard band and plans to return to Jamaica in November after One Love Festival.
