The Australian music scene continues to churn out incredibly talented artists, and Lecky, a stage name for Alexander Oswald Mowbray, is one rapidly rising star to watch. Born on November 8, 2002, this multi-talented artist, songwriter, rapper, and record producer is making waves both domestically and abroad thanks to his authentic, genre-defying style.
A fan of the iconic G-Unit, 50 Cent, and Eminem, Lecky’s style often reflects these early inspirations. Denoted by his distinctive accent draped over heavy hip-hop instrumentals, first-time listeners are treated to an auditory experience that’s difficult to box into a single genre.
His dedication, talent, and relentless pursuit of personal and artistic growth is evident in his latest album, “ENEMIES 2 LOVERS,” released on February 10, 2024. With 22 tracks and approximately 46 minutes of playtime, this critically-acclaimed album has been well-received by his growing fanbase. Notable tracks such as “SECRETS,” “REVERSING TIME,” and “MINUTE MAID” have enjoyed considerable airplay, further establishing Lecky’s place in the industry.
Lecky began his musical journey early, crafting his first instrumentals at 14 and releasing his self-produced single on July 4, 2020. By the time he was 16, he had made his formal introduction to the music industry with his debut song. A true testament to his dedication and skill, Lecky has been honing his craft since he was a child, learning to play multiple instruments under his brother’s guidance and writing raps as young as seven.
The multi-talented artist’s musical contributions extend beyond his solo career. He is also part of the Melbourne-based hip-hop collective, LeckyENT. His second studio album, “Lovers 2 Enemies,” launched in November 2023, identified Lecky’s ability to create hit singles such as “LOVE & LUST”, “GOKU”, and “VOLKANOVSKI.”
When talking about potential collaborations, Lecky expressed his inclination towards working with renowned artists, Pharrell or Timbaland. As for his musical favorites, the artist cites “Straight Line” by Silverchair as his all-time top song – albeit an unconventional choice when juxtaposed with his musical releases.
With fresh music on the horizon, the rising artist casually revealed plans to release a single called “Midas Touch” in June 2024 and is currently working towards completing his next album, “Always & Forever Vol. 1,” set for release on November 8, 2024.
