Five-year-old Sarah Redden has secured a burgeoning fan base after releasing a rap tribute to NFL star Colin Kaepernick.

Sarah Redden from Dayton, Ohio, posted a YouTube video titled Kaepernicking on December 14 and to date it has scored more than 300,000 hits.

In the recording the blonde youngster is seen imitating the San Francisco 49ers quarterback dressed in a number 7 shirt with faux tattoos covering her upper arms.

“Wearing No 7 like Colin Kaep, talking Super Bowl wins, he’s bringing them back,” Sarah Redden raps.

Talking about what inspired the song, she told CBS13: “I just like singing and I just like making songs.

“The 49ers and the Steelers have always been my favorite teams.”

According to Sarah Redden, she wrote the lyrics and produced the video with the help of her brother.

She cites the U.S. rapper Wiz Khalifa as one of her musical inspirations.
