Welcome To The NTUNED MixUp With Ms.P

The NTuned Show with Ms.P And The Family

Born in Merced, California Scanlouz Deleon was raised by his mother, who has a love for music, and his grandmother, who fed his spirituality through attending church and joining the choir. Being the second of three, Deleon learned at a young age to make his presence known. Acting in plays and studying his mother’s natural talent to replicate anything on a beat gave Scanlouz the groundwork for his musical career. Scanlouz grew up in a small town in Central California where the sun does not shine quite as bright. The Northside of Merced is where Deleon learned some of life’s greatest and hardest lessons. Although Deleon enjoyed hanging out with friends, menacing the neighborhood, he always stayed true for his love of music. At a very young age he was exposed to musical geniuses such as The Stylistics and Tupac Shakur. As he got older he began studying and gaining inspirations from Snoop Dogg, Nas, DMX, Fabolous, Scarface, Outcast; true Hip Hop legends. One day while hanging out his two favorite pastimes collided. “My friend named Service started rapping over a song playing over the radio and that's where I was introduced to rapping…my first cypher”. That same year Scanlouz purchased a karaoke machine and he and his friends held cypher after cypher until he was called inside. It was to Nelly’s “Hot in Here” that Deleon wrote his first official verse. “After that, it was a wrap…I wouldn’t stop and couldn’t stop writing and rapping”. Scanlouz’s mother made a life changing decision to move to Sacramento, California. It proved to be a successful choice because it allowed Deleon to stay out of trouble and focused on his music.
