RAP PRODUCER GIVES BACK TO HARLEM KIDS

Hip hop producer DARYL 'DIGGA' BRANCH is giving back to his native Harlem, New York by teaching kids how to make music.

Branch, who has worked for the likes of Jay-Z, 50 Cent and Ghostface, giving 6th, 7th and 8th graders at the Renaissance Leadership Academy a masterclass in rapping, singing and music production.

And he's hoping to unearth some future superstars.

The Harlem-native tells Hip Hop Weekly, "I started a student run record company for the school, where the kids are actually the staff and are in charge of putting out their own records."
