Dred Scott's debut album, Breakin' Combs on A&M Records, was released in 1994. The album achieved moderate success thanks to the underground singles "Check the Vibe" and "Back in the Day," which featured R&B singer and future wife Adriana Evans. The pair met while in college, which led to Adriana's appearance on Scott's "Breakin' Combs". The two have since collaborated on subsequent Evans' albums El Camino, Nomadic, Kismet and her most recent Walking with the Night.

Dred Scott's 1994 debut suffers from two things. Musically, Scott was always a better producer than rapper and the album happened to drop in the midst of hip-hop's golden era, when it seemed like classic albums were released every week. Breakin' Combs was preceded by seminal albums like Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers), 93 'Til Infinity, and Midnight Marauders, and then Illmatic and Ready to Die hit the streets months later. Anything less than something stellar got lost in that shuffle.
If this outstanding album from west coast artist Dred Scott had dropped in NYC a few years earlier, it probably would have been bigger back then and universally recognized as a classic right now. As it is, Breakin’ Combs is a sorely slept-on and unjustly forgotten album. Entirely self-produced, Dred Scott delivers an album filled with smooth, jazzy beats reminiscent of A Tribe Called Quest and Pete Rock & CL Smooth. Nothing wrong with his lyrics and emcee skills either.
Breakin' Combs is the debut studio album by American rapper and musician Dred Scott, released in 1994 on Tuff Break/A&M Records. The album was written and produced by Scott, with a sound that's influenced in the genres of soul, hip hop, jazz and reggae music. R&B/soul singer Adriana Evans is featured on the single "Check the Vibe", and "Swingin' from the Tree".
