Scorcher (real name Tayo Jarrett) is an English rapper, actor and producer from Enfield, North London. He began his career in Cold Blooded where he became known for his 'shank' bars, and would regularly attend pirate radio and work his way up through the North London grime circuit. It has been claimed Scorcher had to serve a prison sentence for a short period of time in 2006, for driving offense's, and while in jail his mix-tape Simply the Best dropped and was greeted with good reviews from the grime scene. After an incident with fellow Cold Blooded member Cookie, Scorcher left Cold Blooded to concentrate on a new collective known as The Movement which featured Scorcher alongside Wretch 32, Devlin, Mercston, and Ghetto. At this point he was involved in a momentous clash that saw him and fellow movement members go up against rival grime collective Boy Better Know. Scorcher did 3 dubs directed at Wiley, Jammer and Frisco. His debut single 'It's My Time' charted on the UK R&B chart at number 38. Scorcher's first single of 2012 was premiered on MistaJam's 1XTRA show on March 3. Hide
