<p>For many young artists today, success often comes as a simple stroke of luck, but in the case of 13-year-old <strong>JBYRD</strong>, his passion commands the spotlight and his natural, attention grabbing talent keeps the shine focused on him as he spits exactly what the game’s been missing. The words of his new song couldn’t be more exact; he’s a “<em>lyrical, miracle rhyme master.”</em></p> <p> </p> <p>Representing the culture capital of hip hop, Atlantan <strong>JBYRD </strong>(real name <strong>Sam Freckmann</strong> is a rhythm-infused lyricist who’s been writing, rhyming and performing original material since the age of 9. Now he boasts a personal endorsement by <strong>Beastie Boys’ DJ Hurricane</strong> and has always credited Midwest rapper <strong>Tech N9ne </strong>and<strong> Eminem</strong> for inspiring his style and ambition. </p> <p> <em> </em></p> <p><em>“His lyrical talent had an effect on me that made me want to write songs,”</em> says <strong>JBYRD</strong>, who nixes the pad and paper when jotting down his lines. <strong>JBYRD</strong> punches out his rhymes on trusted technology just like Grammy nominated rapper <strong>Drake</strong> and his Blackberry. <em>“I never write down</em> <em>my lyrics on paper</em>,” says <strong>J</strong>, “<em>I write down all my lyrics on my iPod.”</em> <strong>JBYRD’s</strong> flow and performance features a vigorous rhyme scheme that pays homage to old-school hip hop forgotten by most his age. <strong>Byrd</strong> does more than inject the current rap scene with a return-to-origin vibe. His flow strikes notable hip hop figures like <strong>DJ Hurricane</strong> as fame worthy.</p> <p> </p> <p>“<strong><em>Cane</em></strong><em> said that as soon as he heard [me] he knew I could put it down</em>,” says <strong>JBYRD</strong>. Hip hop pioneer <strong>DJ Hurricane</strong> mentors <strong>JBYRD</strong>, producing songs on his upcoming album for <strong>Don’t Sleep Productions</strong> and directing <strong>JBYRD’s</strong> video <strong><em>“Rhyme Master.”</em></strong> <strong>JBYRD’s</strong> musical collaborations include son of legendary rapper <strong>Notorious B.I.G.</strong>, <strong>Cee Jay </strong>and<strong> Kid Rock </strong>guitarist, <strong>Kenny Olsen</strong>, who rocked across 3 of <strong>JBYRD</strong>’s tracks.</p> <p> </p> <p><strong>JBYRD</strong> has recorded many songs including the previously mentioned <strong>Cee Jay</strong> collaboration <em>“Missed The Bus”</em> and the <strong>Hurricane</strong> produced the song and directed the new single <strong><em>“Rhyme Master.</em></strong>”</p> <p>To listen to<strong><em> “Rhyme Master”</em></strong> or for more information about <strong>JBYRD</strong> log on to Itunes, Youtube.com/JByrdTheRhymemaster, <a href="http://www.Jbyrd.com">www.Jbyrd.com</a>, Facebook.com/JBYRD.MUSIC.ATL, Twitter/JBYRDmusic.com </p>
