Early life
Scott Sterling was born in the Bronx, New York City, on March 2, 1962. His parents divorced when he was four years old, so Carolyn Morant, a municipal employee, raised him. They went from Queens, New York City, to the Bronx, first Morrisania and then Morris Heights.
At Our Saviour Lutheran High School, he excelled in both academics and sports, beginning in 1980. He attended Castleton State College in Vermont and received a varsity letter in basketball.
Career
La Rock returned to New York City in the hopes of finding jobs and making inroads into the music industry. Scott started working as a social worker at Franklin Armory Men's Shelter on 166th Street in the Bronx through a cousin of his mother's. He spun records at the Broadway Repertoire Theatre, even at night.
La Rock, a social worker, met rapper KRS-One in 1986 at Franklin Men's Shelter, where KRS remained. DJ Derrick "D-Nice" Jones, a cousin of the shelter's security guard, Floyd Payne, founded Boogie Down Productions (BDP). Criminal Minded, the group's debut album in 1987, is regarded as a hip-hop masterpiece.
