Welcome Young Lyric To The NTUNED Mix-UP

Remember the first time you heard that Will Smith's 9-year-old daughter was launching a music career? Now remember when you actually got round to hearing 'Whip My Hair' and realized that it was probably the best single you'd heard all year? Well get ready for a all those feelings rolled into one and then washed up to distill their purest ingredients as you come face-to-face with Lyrikkal, another 9-year-old sensation, but with a capital G to her swaG” (UK Journalist Jaimie Hodgson, NME.com)
With a typical day that includes school, homework, dance class, singing lessons, cheerleading practice, studio sessions, and an occasional photo or video shoot, Young Lyric (aka Lyrikkal) just might be the busiest 10-year old girl on the planet, and it appears that her hard work is beginning to pay off as the honor student has become an international hip-hop sensation and internet favorite, receiving over a million views on YouTube andWorldstarHipHop.com in just a few short weeks! She was also recently featured on Pixie Magazine's website, TV Gawker, CNN Entertainment, and Billboard.com; and she recently won The 2nd Annual Female Hip Hop Honors "Breakthrough Artist of the Year" award!
Born Lyric Michell Ragston in Houston, TX on July 30, 2000, Young Lyric developed a love for singing, dancing, and rapping at an early age (and with having both a father and uncle who were aspiring artists and a recording studio connected to her bedroom, this may have been inevitable). She recorded her first song at the age of 7 and performed it in front of her entire school during their black history program that same year. http://http://www.younglyric.com/
