Jhyce

Born March, 7 in Flint, Michigan, a city named one of the top 5 murder capitals in America, Jhyce Luvvit Pacino is a female rapper known as “Michigana”. Jhyce, whose name came from her childhood nickname ice, started rapping at the young age of 7. Inspired by her family's love for music, she remembers riding in the car with her father as he had his speakers beating the latest rap artist to spitting rhymes with her older cousins and uncles. From that moment Jhyce knew she had a love for the rap game and that music had a special purpose in her life.

After her father moved to Florida, Jhyce’s mother had to raise her by herself to the best of her ability. Regardless of raising her alone she was determined to instill hard work, independence and honesty into her daughter. With these gifts from her mom Jhyce has grown to be not only independent and hardworking, but dedicated, confident, self-motivated and very strong.

In 2010 Jhyce moved to Lansing, MI and started working with other artist and producers. Along with her uncle, Jhyce started her own label (RoundTable Music Affiliation). Always working on new music and ideas, she is determined to be one of the best female artists of her generation. With her versatile style of rapping and writing, Jhyce released her first street album titled “I Am Michigana” Part 1 in 2012 and will be releasing her new highly anticipated album "Still No Money No Reason" in 2015. With the release of her new hit single "Think You Are" produced by 2Drumatik, Jhyce is showing the industry what the roar of a woman can do and proving she can go neck to neck, toe to toe with male artists. She’s laying out the foundation to make history as the greatest female rapper of her generation.
