Antoinette Clinton known by her stage name Butterscotch, is an American beatboxer/singer/pianist, who has been making waves in the music industry since her appearance on the second season of America's Got Talent in 2007.

The young protégée, already began to gain notoriety when she won the first World Hip Hop Beatbox Women's Championship in 2005 and claimed the West Coast Champion title in 2007 beating 18 men. Since then, Butterscotch has toured extensively with the Mike Patton-fronted band Peeping Tom, beatboxing in place of Rahzel.

The California native, both sung and beatboxed, as well as a combination of the two while playing the piano, for her performances on the Hit Talent Show; America's Got Talent, which aired on British TV again this week. Although unsuccessful in reaching the finals, she was able to make it through several stages of the competition before finally being voted out by the viewers on August 20, 2007.

Rumored to be working on a fourth coming Album, Butterscotch's revolutionary style of Hip Hop 'Beat Boxin' mixed with her own Modern renditions of both legendary Jazz & Soul Classic's, which have included: Summertime, by George Gershwin, It's Your Thing by The Isley Brothers & My Funny Valentine from the musical Babes in Arms, has been described as 'Experimental Hip Hop/Jazz', and is set to encourage new and ever younger audiences back to Jazz, and is therefore perfectly exemplifies the concept of UrbanJazz, and will most certainly not only do great things in the future, but to some certain extent probably revolutionalise the music industry in the process.
