At the age of 5, he landed an acting role in a movie called "The Painting" with Charles Shaughnessy, Clifton Davis, Ben Vereen and "Fame's" Debbie Allen.

Darrein is from St. Louis, Missouri and he was lucky enough to live in the area where tryouts for the Showtime At The Apollo were held! He passed his audition singing the soul classic "Chain of Fools".

His biggest influence has been his father, Mike Safron, who has been in music all his life. Mike Safron played drums for Chuck Berry, Bo Diddley, Albert King and is the founding member of the world acclaimed group Pavlov's Dog.
