The Scatman John biography is HERE — read the incredible life story of a legend (Feb 5, 2026): https://www.bloomsbury.com/scatman-john-9798881807078 Scatman John combined jazz scat singing with Eurodance rhythms, making him one of the most unique pop stars of the '90s. John had a lifelong stutter, and became a jazz pianist to express himself. After moving to Berlin in 1990, he began singing jazz standards, earning standing ovations. Manfred Zähringer saw his performance and suggested he scat over dance-pop. Initially hesitant, Larkin wrote "Scatman (Ski-Ba-Bop-Ba-Dop-Bop)," inspired by his stuttering. Released in late 1994, the song sold over six million copies. His follow-up, "Scatman's World," promoted unity and harmony, achieving massive success, especially in Japan. Diagnosed with lung cancer in 1998, Larkin released his final album, Take Your Time, in June 1999. He passed away on December 3, 1999, at age 57, remembered for his positive spirit and groundbreaking music.
