It is rare to find a child, who even at a young age, displays such effortless musical talent.

It is even rarer, to find a child has harnessed their raw talent to develop a mastery of their craft.

Jadyn Rylee is one of these children.

At the time this article was written, Jadyn was only 11-years-old. Yet she has produced a number of musical covers that display a level of talent that few her age can match.

Her rendition of “Sound of Silence,” for example, is absolutely chilling.

This song was originally sung by Simon and Garfunkel. Paul Simon wrote the song over a period of months in 1963 and 1964, and their studio audition of this song landed them a record deal with Columbia Records. Since then, many artists have covered this song, including Passenger.

Jadyn not only nails the vocals, but she also communicates the emotion behind the lyrics. Her ability to do so is indeed beyond her years.

Her cover of “Nothing Else Matters” by Metallica, is just as stunning.

This song first appeared on Metallica’s self-titled, fifth studio album, and was released in 1992. Some believe that this song is written about the narrator and his first love and the relationship that develops between them over time.

Jadyn again hits all the right notes with her rendition of the classic rock song. Jadyn again communicates the emotions that lie between the notes, and even her facial expressions show the pain and love the narrator feels.

But not all of Jadyn’s covers are of classic rock songs.

Jadyn sings a Disney classic, “Tale As Old As Time,” from Beauty and the Beast

It is almost as if a younger version of Belle got in front of the camera and started to sing. Viewers on Youtube agree that Jadyn has a beautiful, if not haunting, voice.

Some may argue that Jadyn’s voice is edited and that she might not sound as perfect live.

This performance of the Celine Dion hit, “My Heart Will Go On,” proves them wrong.

This song is a vocal test, to say the least, but Jadyn delivers a nearly perfect performance. Her live performance almost sounds like a studio recording.

Jadyn is incredibly talented, and she possesses a stage presence far beyond her years.

She maintains a Youtube channel that had 30,000 subscribers at the time this article was written. Her fans cannot wait to see what the future holds for her.

It is only a matter of time before she is discovered by the right producer, and we start seeing her on the Billboard charts.
