from Weston, Florida who has had a meteoric rise in the music industry. In January of 2011 the
multi-talented musician who taught himself to play the drums and guitar at a young age, put out
a few homemade music videos on YouTube which immediately created a buzz and attracted the
attention of music business insiders who began to guide Jake on his journey.

Ever since Jake Miller began posting his original songs on YouTube a few years ago, the 21-year-old Miami-born pop artist has been building a virtual army of fans. His millions of social media community followers call themselves the Millertary and come to his concerts wearing camouflage and greasepaint under their eyes. They are devoted to Miller’s irresistible musical blend of pop and hip-hop, combined with the positive messages in his songs.

Miller has independently released two EP’s: 2012’s Spotlight and 2013’s The Road Less Traveled, which debuted at No. 1 on the iTunes Hip-Hop chart. His full-length album, 2013’s Us Against Them, sold over 33,000 copies and peaked at No. 5 on the Billboard Rap chart. One of MTV’s 2014 “Ones to Watch” artists, Miller has shared stages with Mac Miller, Flo Rida, Sean Kingston, Asher Roth, Jason Derulo, Cody Simpson, Austin Mahone, and Sammy Adams at various radio festivals, including Y-100’s Jingle Ball and the Calle Ocho Festival in Miami, where he performed for a crowd of more than 200,000 screaming fans. He also sold out a 43-city House of Blues Tour before a major record deal, driven primarily by his incredible social-networking presence.

Now Miller is set to extend his reach even further, having signed to Warner Bros. Records, and will release his new single “First Flight Home” on July 5th. Produced by Danish songwriter-producer Cutfather (The Wanted), the track is an irresistible calling card for Miller, who credits Eminem, Macklemore & Ryan Lewis, and Drake as inspirations. Hailing from the South Florida community of Weston, Miller began rapping when he was 17, but began to take it more seriously a year later when his YouTube videos caught the attention of local news and radio stations. This led to his first-ever live performance — a plum slot opening for Snoop Dogg in 2011.

Having built the Millertary on his own, Miller is looking forward to seeing what he can achieve with the support of Warner Bros. Records behind him. “It’s obviously a dream come true,” he says. “The night that I signed my record deal we released a video with my family and friends in it, popping champagne and celebrating, it was the greatest night of my life.”

[Chorus]
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I won't never let you go
You ain't gotta worry 'bout a thing baby
Every single day Ima let you know
Oh baby can't you see, you're the one for me
I won't never let you go
You ain't gotta worry 'bout a thing baby

Every single day Ima let you know, oh, oh
You're my everything

It started back in middle school
Back when it was puppy love
Now it's so much more than that
It's something I've been dreaming of
It's crazy looking back, thinking 'bout when we were kids
But it's funny cause my feelings for you haven't changed a bit
I remember growing up, looking at my mom and dad
Thinking when I'm older, that's exactly what I wanna have
And I think I finally found it, ever since the day you came along
I never doubted us, I swear I knew it early on
Baby you my best friend, yeah I hope you know
We'll go down together just like dominoes
They say there's no such thing as fairy tales
But this seems to be!
Girl I couldn't tell you what you mean to me

[Chorus]

Yeah, remember laying on my roof, looking at the stars
I pointed to the biggest one and said that one is ours
You ain't just a random girl, neah, we go way back
Always doing laps around my mind, like a race track
I been chasing after you ever since I was five foot
Circling your picture with a sharpie in my yearbook
That might of sounded kinda creepy, yeah it's cheesy, but it's true girl
I swear that you complete me
Cause you everything I wanted more, never felt like this before
Looking in your eyes sends chills down my spinal cord
I can only ṗray to God you feel the same
Yeah, girl I love you, that will never change

I won't never let you go
You ain't gotta worry 'bout a thing baby
Every single day Ima let you know
Oh baby can't you see, you're the one for me
I won't never let you go
You ain't gotta worry 'bout a thing baby
Every single day Ima let you know, oh, oh

I won't never let you go
You ain't gotta worry 'bout a thing baby
Every single day Ima let you know
Oh baby can't you see, you're the one for me
I won't never let you go
You ain't gotta worry 'bout a thing baby
Every single day Ima let you know, oh, oh

I won't never let you go
You ain't gotta worry 'bout a thing baby
Every single day Ima let you know
Oh baby can't you see, you're the one for me
I won't never let you go
You ain't gotta worry 'bout a thing baby

Every single day Ima let you know, oh, oh
You're my everything
