What's up guys? My name is Matt and I want to introduce you guys to this new aspiring artist. He's British and he got the talent and dedication to grow to become one of UK's greatest. No doubt about that. He goes by the name of Da Rebirth and is inspired by Nas, Eminem, The Fresh Prince and soo many more. I've been working with many and I can tell you that there's no one who's as dedicated to his dream as Jamie. I've never seen anybody work soo hard to get what he wants no matter the critics who laughed at him when he revealed this dream years ago. He's lyrically brilliant and the most loyal guy I've ever met. Thankful for every chance and every bit of support he gets.

Here's his story:
Da Rebirth is an up and coming rap group based in Gillingham consisting of two childhood friends, Jamie Marchant and Marc Hasemore, who aim to revive the lacking industry by taking hip-hop back to its roots. Drawing inspiration from artists such as Run DMC and Jazzy Jeff & Fresh Prince, they pride themselves on their old skool style, making music purely for the love of the game.

Back in 2005, Jamie Marchant started writing lyrics as a hobby, and due to the good feedback he got from friends, decided to post them up to unanimous appraisal on an Internet forum. It was from that moment that he knew that he wanted to release his own music. Taking on the name of Da Rebirth, he continued to write popular and meaningful lyrics, gaining somewhat of a fanbase. Rap battles followed on, in which he remains undefeated and even beat a Chamillionaire impersonator!

In the following months, his friends, Marc Hasemore and David Hancock, also got involved. Similar to Jamie, they adopted the style of writing lyrics that meant something to them. They took on Jamie's rap name, Da Rebirth, and adopted it as their group name. Shying away from the rap battles, all three of them focused more on writing songs to instrumentals, planning for a time when they would be able to record their songs and compile them into a mixtape.

Fast forward to 2010 and the Eminem Mixtape was born. Putting their own spin on classic Eminem tracks, Da Rebirth released the mixtape on the 20th December. The Eminem Mixtape is downloadable from: http://www.usershare.net/4le6pp9growt.


Now the mixtape is out there and doing pretty well, it's time to reveal Jamie's masterpiece. Last night a new track was released. It's called 'Industry of Angels' and is a tribute song honouring all of the greatest influences on today's hiphop scene who are sadly enough no longer with us. From Tupac to MJ and from Eazy E to BIG. They all deserved their spot in there. Jamie has been working on this ever since MJ passed away and a lot of patience and hard work and dedication are put into this.

I'll add the lyrics to the song, the link to youtube and the download link. I hope you guys like it! Be there when one of UK's greatest stand up.

Lyrics:
I remember September ’96 when Pac got shot
It felt like music lost the heart of hip hop
His legacy always has me feeling sentimental
And that’s the reason why I’m rapping on his instrumental
The only thing I hope is to bring justice to the track
Write a letter, “Dear Mama can you bring Pac back?
And while you’re at it bring Biggie along for the ride
Coz since they died hip hop’s been on a downhill slide”
Confrontation, altercations stunted both their growth
Consumed by a beef that became bigger than them both
All we have left is the message of their success
Always remember me and prove there’s life after death
‘02 in the studio Jay was doing what he loved
Jam Master lived for music now he’s cutting up above
I was sad ‘til I remembered what Run and D said
Replaying in my head “You’ll see Jay again my friend”
I didn’t know much about him before he passed away
But needless to say I’m missing Eazy E today
A drug dealing gangbanger taken from us by AID’s
But I’m just glad he patched it up with Ice Cube and Dre
I give ? huge respect for still reppin’ the scene
But Wu Tang aint the same without ODB
True legends to the culture prematurely deceased
J-Dilla sleep well, Roc Raider rest in peace

[Chorus - Jamie]
Silhouettes of Angels forming in the darkest of skies
Not walking the earth, but still in our lives
The memories that you gave us are infinite
I feel the spirit around me when I grace the MIC
A part of me actually wants to embrace the fatal
Because I wanna live in an industry of angels

I wrote this verse on the day Michael Jackson passed away
And to be honest I really didn’t know what to say
I been wracking my brain searching for words to conserve
Probing vocabularies to put words to a verse
But nothing dispersed; I was left searching for clues
Coz when you passed a part of me died with you too
It wasn’t Neil Armstrong, M.J, it was you
Who taught me it was possible to walk on the moon
Motown 25 when you took to the stage
You stole the hearts of millions regardless of age
And though your flames burnt out I’ll ignite the embers
Coz when you left it felt like a family member
But when heartache fades and the tears start to dry
We won’t remember your death; we’ll celebrate your life
I wasn’t born in your heyday, but figured it out soon
I think it’s safe to say I moonwalked from the ?
Wearing white socks, leather jacket, thriller mask
And a shimmering white glove on the right of my palms
I swear there’s unborn babies still developing genes
In their mother’s stomachs dancing to Billie Jean
I saw this kid with his grandfather walking the streets
Asked ‘em both who they considered music’s elite
To see past generations music up to today
They just smiled and both replied “M.J”

[Chorus - Jamie]

Now its moments like this when I start to reminisce
On how things have changed and how I want to relive
The moments of my life when Big L was MVP
And Left Eye was still rocking with TLC
I give it up to Aaliyah for working with Slick Rick
When Bug Pun was on the come up 100%
Back when I was a kid I wasn’t a GTA fanatic
But now I really wish I was rapping with Mr Magic
I may have missed their prime but I got love for ‘em too
I’d give anything to see Elvis wearing blue suede shoes
Or feel good with James Brown and start to lose control
So I could really get down with the godfather of soul
I kind of feel inadequate as I write this song
But before Freddie left he said the show must go on
Marvin Gaye in your lifetime you gave us midnight love
And my respect for Luther will never be too much
This is more than a tribute to the people in the poem
But a collective salute to all the legends there has been
Cant explain the impression there’s too many to mention
Just trust me when I say you’re still teaching me lessons

[Chorus – Jamie]
