Matthew Scott: From Despair to Musical Hope
I was one of those people who did not have a voice. I was afraid to use my words express my feelings. Now I use music to express my beliefs, thoughts and dreams.
Imagine growing up in a world where you're constantly told you're not good enough. That's the reality Matthew Scott faced, living in an abusive home. But instead of letting those words define him, Matthew found solace in music and poetry. His journey from a troubled past to a hopeful present is nothing short of inspiring. Matthew's love for music started early. Despite the negativity surrounding him, he began writing poetry, which soon evolved into songwriting.
He poured his heart into his lyrics, recording them over hip-hop beats, and before long, he became an independent artist with tracks on YouTube, Spotify, Apple Music, and Deezer. His music became his voice, a way to express his deepest beliefs and dreams. However, Matthew's path wasn't always smooth. He struggled with addiction and legal issues, finding himself lost and in despair. It wasn't until he discovered faith that he could break free from his chains.
Becoming a born-again Christian transformed his life. With newfound faith and the support of his family, Matthew overcame his struggles and dedicated his life to sharing hope through his music. Today, Matthew's goal is simple yet profound: to remind everyone that there's light at the end of the tunnel.
