An aspiring rapper is being celebrated as a hero after he saved the lives of four people by alerting them to the flames engulfing their home as they slept in Iowa on October 23.

According to KCRA, Brendon Birt, who goes by the moniker Blase 96 in his music career, took a wrong turn in the town of Red Oak when he came upon the home. He told the station: 'I just felt like somebody was in there because it was so late at night.'

The owner of the house, Tender Lehman, was in Montana due to a family emergency when the fire occurred. Her three children and their 22-year-old brother, Bryce Harrison, were inside asleep on the fateful night.

The three youngest children were in the care of their brother while Lehman was away. The children are aged 17, 14 and 8.

The KCRA report says that the family continued to sleep despite the fire because the home's smoke detectors did not go off.

Since the guy saved those lives in a really successful good deed, the media may have decided that giving him a little commercial boost by pointing him out as an aspiring rapper was a deserved nice touch.
