History

Addiquit is a songwriter and MC from Spring Valley. In 2003, she met beat-maker/producer Machinedrum while studying audio engineering at the Full Sail media-arts school in Florida. Though still unsigned and fairly unknown, her music earned her a personal invite from Chan Marshall to open 2007 dates for Cat Power in Los Angeles and San Francisco.

In 2008, Addiquit collaborated with Shunda K of Yo Majesty fame, on the song "White Leather." She received San Diego Music Award nominations for Best Hip-Hop in 2007 and 2008. Her 2009 debut album features beats and production from several top indie producers.

Addiquit created a side-project in early 2009, Scarecrow N Criminal, to promote free mixtape music.
