Never Give Up (Lil' Rossco Remix) [feat. iSTAND & Danny Sprang]

A 1 track alternative rap/hip-hop single (3m 48s) — released July 30th 2021 on Buttercuts Records

"Never Give Up" is a further collaboration between Rebel ACA & French Monkey Wrench and iSTAND and Danny Sprang.

Originally written in the Butterhut NW10 over one afternoon. They then gave it to friend Lil' Rossco to remix. Well he made an even better song. Except iStand now sounds like a Dalek. Never one to quibble over whose oranges are juciiest when the pips are down - they are proudly releasing his version instead. P.s. You can hear their original behind the music video.

Rebel says "Life isn't easy, and has a habit to feel like a queue of people that has lined up to punch you in the face. So don't give up. Ever. "

With a tongue in cheek video playing with the more minor comedy matters that test your patience. The home delivery driver finding your flat, the flat pack furniture frustration, the endless apparent need to exercise - "even with that meaningless bullshit - it takes all that you have - to keep going" continues rebel

Part of a series of singles release by the collaboration including tracks with Spragga Benz and Rodney P - this one switches up their artwork. Because frankly they've given up on that look and moving on to the next.

Often described as 'the British Run the Jewels', Rebel ACA & French Monkey Wrench have garnered support from BBC 6 Music – Cerys Matthews, The Shaun Keaveny Breakfast show & Tom Robinson, John Kennedy X FM, Frank Skinner Absolute Radio and Rebel ACA appears on two tracks (Including the first track) of the Billboard #1 Album CHILIAGON by Spragga Benz (as well as producing, and executive producing the entire album and co-writing 2 of the songs).

Rebel ACA and French met nearly 15 years ago, as one managed, and the other produced a funk reggae band. And ever since – their completely opposite nature in almost every way – has kept them attracted, like a nut and ratchet.

Lil' Rossco is without doubt the best mashup DJs Melbourne has ever produced. Originally a drummer, he is the DJ who can make anyone dance, and anyone cry – without being cheesy. His has been producing for decades, developing his unique style. Responsible for much of the production and recording of Spragga Benz Chiliagon project as a whole – nicknamed "Rosscafari" by Spragga – his infectious story telling in the beat shines through.
