Brennan Martin, well known in the music industry as YrkDaRapper is an artist from Neptune, NJ, who started making music in 2016 where he would create CDs of his videos and songs to give them out to his fans and supporters. Though doing so was hard, he is happy now because it paid off. YrkDaRapper is the kind of person who likes trying new fields, and now he has expanded his interests to start a new clothing line that will enable the fans to have a piece of himself to wear and promote his brand in the world. He also danced to 50 Cents tunes from when he was a toddler because his parents were big fans. He was then selected to be on 50 Cents website, an opportunity that he regards as a dream come true. 

• He was born in Neptune, New Jersey on January 5, 1998, to a single mother.  YRKDaRapper’s mother signed him up for summer music camp at Blue Lite in Mount Holly, New Jersey when he was in high school. Instantly, he was drawn to the love of music. As time passed on, he was able to turn his anger into joy with the music he was producing. Music showed him a different way to deal with everyday obstacles and challenges. It’s helped YRKDaRapper create lyrics to show the youth that with motivation and drive they can develop their own skills and talents to build upon their dreams.
• He was inspired to be called YRK which means Young Rich King. He was not only fortunate enough to have a loving and supportive family, but he was able to find purpose with the music he’s begun to make.  With the professional guidance of the staff at Blue Lite and his family, YRKDaRapper developed a better understanding of how to promote himself so he could be more self-sufficient. He has been blessed to have honest and selfless people in his circle that are always there to lend a hand or answer questions.  
• YRKDaRapper says Meek Mill is one of his greatest musical influences because he doesn’t talk about violence and his focus is on changing the culture for the youth. He also respects the fact that Meek Mill changed his whole life around after going to prison and dreams about being a millionaire someday. YRKDaRapper can identify with what Meek Mill says in his lyrics and says it’s opened his mind up to ways he can bring others up as well.
