Self Scientific consists of MC Chace Infinite and DJ Khalil from LA, California. Formed in 1994 as The Numbskulls, they originally cut a demo in Ice T’s home studio. This demo led to then being signed to Loud Records in 1995 but this was short lived. They were eventually signed to a LA independent label SOL Music Works and came to prominence with the acclaimed release Return in 1998, followed by their debut LP The Self Science in 2001.
