@LyriqNawqiy
Chicago, IL, USA
Lyrig Nawgiy is an emcee from the Southside of
Chicago. Like many well known artists from the Chi,
Nawqiy (pronounced Naw-Kee), Hebrew meaning
the innocent, boasts a lyrical style laden with witty
wordplay, poignant punchlines and striking
storytelling.
Lyriq Nawqiy approaches his music with a
vulnerability, rendering him no stranger to sharing
anecdotes from his personal experiences, both the
beautiful and the burdening. While Jesus is at the
center of his art, and a Christian worldview covers
the scope of his viewpoint, Nawqiy's approach to art
is that of a practical down to earth glimpse into his
life.
Whether it be lovey dovey songs about his wife,
openness about his own insecurities, or anthems of
adoration for life and breath, Nawaiy always delivers
a skillfully passionate performance. Pick your poison
and push play, but no matter the subject, get ready
to be challenged to grow!
