Da’ Mad Scientist also known as Phase, is an emcee from Queens New York who was one half of the duo Brokin English Klik.
"With his formative years steeped in crime and seeing no light at the end of the tunnel, Phase left Queens, New York for the somewhat sumptuous surroundings of Miami.
« I was getting into mad troubles in New York , like drugs and things, so my mum sent me down to Miami to cool off. I went down there and met Mack-10 and we both embraced hip-hop, because there was nothing else to do, It was just hot. »"

Along with Mack, Phase released the duo’s first and only full length self titled "Brokin English Klik" album in 1993 on Wild Pitch Records. The group had a few 12” singles around the time the album dropped but they never expanded beyond that.
As an emcee Phase didn’t release much material on his own but after the group split in 1994 he released the 12” single "Never Fear" under the alias Da’ Mad Scientist.

dude, thanks for the info! I always loved the Da Mad Scientist 12" but never knew who it was. Reading your article here and seeing the pic, i knew i remembered that pic from somewhere. I think this is the same Phase that was part of the group Phae n Rhythm who put out some unreleased on herring. And i believe thats where that pic may have come from and that thing he's holding... i think they gave one away to a customer.. https://www.discogs.com/artist/172658-Phase-N-Rhythm
