Daybreak's single ‘Rap Assassin’ is the culmination of his efforts to record a song that both showcases his skills and pays homage to his love of classic Samurai, Kung Fu and Horror films. Written as an alternative to the current mainstream Hip-Hop environment and as a tribute to the Old-School artists Daybreak grew up listening to, Rap Assassin showcases a beat that features intricate drum patterns and machine-like percussion, all topped off by a piercing synth melody and produced by Daybreak himself, along with DJ A-Slam from accomplished Urban EDM group Global Party Starters.

‘Poison Clan’ is a song written by Canadian Hip-Hop Artist Daybreak and Greek Producer Retrobeats that has its roots in Hong Kong’s vibrant Golden Era of Kung Fu cinema. Featuring a sinister piano melody along with eerie violin lines, ‘Poison Clan’ is a soundscape that takes the listener on a journey into the dark realm of killers-for-hire where a secretive group of assassins plot to take over the martial arts world and crush all resistance by any means necessary.

Set Fire to It, a high-energy EDM / Hip-Hop fusion track, is the result of a collaboration between Dutch producer Snyker and Canadian rapper Daybreak.

With a musical and lyrical theme heavily inspired by Game of Thrones, Lord of the Rings and other fantasy settings, Set Fire to It tells the tale of a king whose throne is usurped by foes and who is exiled from his kingdom alone and without recourse out into the wilderness. Over the years, he builds his own army and returns to his former kingdom to destroy his enemies and burn everything down so his reign can start again. 

Featuring captivating and terrifying artwork by noted Vancouver artist Mo Sherwood which depicts members of the former king’s new militia looking down upon the burning city they have conquered, Set Fire to It is an intense tribute to the most vicious kind of medieval warfare where there can be no heroes.

“As soon I started listening to Snyker’s beat I immediately felt how cinematic it was. These pounding drums that sounded like a call to war and just the build up to the epic chorus, it all made me think of a medieval battle from a movie,” says Daybreak when describing his approach to the flow and the lyrics for the song. “In the end, the image that stuck with me was a city on fire so I went with it from there.”

Canadian Hip-Hop Artist Daybreak hails from Victoria, British Columbia and currently operates in Vancouver. His style embraces an old-school mentality when it comes to lyrics and flow and the music itself is hard-hitting and thought-provoking with cinematic elements playing over big, pounding drums and a variety of epic instruments. Daybreak’s subject matter ranges from bootlegging black market liquor during Prohibition era to ancient Samurai code and to all other aspects of life, death and the great beyond. Citing influences such as Wu Tang, Jedi Mind Tricks, Nas, Xzibit, Beastie Boys and so many more, Daybreak’s main objective is to constantly evolve as a rapper and combine his many influences into a single voice to spread the message that quality Hip-Hop is alive and well in this era.

Although Daybreak first experimented with rapping and writing lyrics at a young age, he really began his Hip-Hop music career in Seoul city where he learned to rap in Korean. Major television networks took notice of this after a video of Daybreak rapping in a Korean karaoke room went viral online and later, he performed alongside speed-rap sensation Outsider on the SBS show Star King, opened for Korean Rock singer Maya and won third place on the KBS program National Singing Contest, one of the most popular music competition programs in Korea.

Since returning to Canada to focus solely on Hip-Hop music in 2017, Daybreak has released four singles, performed shows around Vancouver and appeared on a variety of local radio programs including Feast or Famine, The Urban Renewal Project and The New Era on CiTR. ‘Set Fire to It’, Daybreak’s latest single, is an EDM / Hip-Hop fusion track producer by Snyker that blends Medieval warfare with a truly unique form of electronic music resulting in a genre-bending Game of Thrones-style revenge story.

In addition to original music, Daybreak does regular remixes of both Old School classics and recent Trap music. The next remix is of the RA The Rugged Man masterpiece Learn Truth, featuring Talib Kweli. Vancouver and West Coast Hip-Hop standout, DJ 151, features on the remix and a music video is set to release across all platforms in January of 2019.

Later in 2019, the androids awaken.. the Android Dreams EP.
