Rags to riches singer waxes ‘Lyrical’ about his fans

Alexander Williams

Singer Alexander Williams popularly known as AW Lyrical, who is currently at the peak of his career and being booked for shows every weekend, said there is a lot more that his fans can expect from him as he is working to create an international platform and name for himself.

Born on the island of Leguan, Lyrical has a story that would quickly bring anyone to tears. He told the Scene that from a very young age he was forced to fend for himself as he was practically disowned by his parents. “I’ve had a really hard time growing up… I grow up hand to mouth as they would say in Guyana. I grew up very poor, mistreated,” he related.

But music has and will always be his safe space – something he turns to for comfort, peace of mind, and even motivation. “The situation I went through, I used to listen to a lot of music,” he said.
