On The Rock The Bells Cruise, Busta Rhymes gave DJ Scratch his props as a producer who contributed to some of his biggest hits. Busta stopped his show to let the crowd know of Scratch's resume. Scratch is highly revered and respected as a DJ, but he often goes unmentioned as a producer. Scratch has produced hits for EPMD, LL COOL J,The Roots, Q-Tip, and many others including Busta Rhymes.

"He gave me 'Gimme Some More', he gave the world 'Gimme Some More'," Busta told the crowd. "This man right here gave me ['Do My Thing']. If I feel like doing the rest of the show with just Scratch production, I would melt y'all's fuckin' faces off with bangers. In an exclusive interview at the 2023 Rock The Bells Festival, Scratch revealed that he produced some of his earliest EPMD work with the just the pause button on his cassette deck. Salute DJ Scratch, one of Hip-Hop's most dynamic DJ/producers.
