StarF’s first official Scrub Club release has finally arrived, and he’s ready to let you inside his busy mind.

An excellent writer and poet, he brings a very different style and feel with his flow.

There’s nothing quite like it – when his emotional lyrics mix perfectly with the deep and heavy production on these songs, you’ll take a roller coaster ride straight into the dedicated heart that StarF showed to earn his place in Scrub Club.

Scrub Club’s fierce Versus Mode audio / visual competition in mid-2009 led to four new leveled-up artists on the label for 2010.

Held on Scrub Club’s official community site, GeekAmigo.com, Versus Mode was a contest that had a group of up-and-coming artists go head to head for some challenges as well as team up for other goals. Out of a great amount of entrants, only 13 were selected to compete. Among the missions were recording new songs, getting professional photoshoots, promoting themselves, updating their web presence… In the end, when there were three finalists left, they competed against eachother live on stage to become Scrub Club’s next signed artist.

Those three finalists were King Pheenix, Diabeats, and Thunderball from Southside. Thunderball rocked the stage at Nerd Invasion in Pensacola, Florida like no other and walked away with the grand title – but with his blessing, all three finalists as well as a runner-up, StarF, were integrated into Scrub Club also.

This compilation includes 10 of the most notable tracks from the duration of the contest. They’re not necessarily the best songs produced from Versus Mode as far as overall quality goes, but they are definitely the ones that stood out from the rest and had the most heart (or made us laugh our asses off, one of the two). Following these 10 tracks is the recording of the actual 40 minute live finale of Versus Mode, where you can hear all three finalists giving it their all to a very hungry crowd.

Submerged in the Minneapolis, Minnesota music scene (yes, it exists!), StarF is as much of an artist as he is a fan of Hip Hop. After writing lyrics for years and realizing he needed to find a way to transmute his words into song, he began his journey into rapping around April of 2006. After years of hard work and improvement, he finally found his way to Scrub Club, which was not just another record label, but a collection of people who he could relate to and call his family. Raised by internet culture and obsessed with music, StarF blends a mixture of poetics and edgy humor into everything he produces. Every new project is approached as the beginning of something that will better himself rather than a means to an end, and as so, StarF is consistently progressing and leveling up within the Nerdcore community. While socially awkward to a noticeable degree, StarF still loves everyone in the community he meets. Despite any awkwardness, he will never hesitate to grab a mic and rock it for a crowd.
