He is known as the crown Prince of gospel reggae, Lloyd Powell, better known by his stage name, Lytie Mighty Powell, is an international reggae artist who hails from Birmingham in the UK.Â
Lytie’s musical inspiration came from the many hours of listening to Nat King Cole and Dennis Brown. He would then mimic their voice until he was able to develop his style of singing.
Following his passion, Lytie’s ambition to perform materialised, and he was soon touring Europe; sharing the stage with Dennis Brown, Gregory Issacs, Sanchez and Frankie Paul to name a few.
Securing number one hit in the Reggae Charts with his popular single entitled ‘I Want You’ Lytie went on to gain two gold discs for ‘Best Male Reggae Singer’ and ‘Bestselling Single’.
Just when it seemed that life couldn’t get any better, things took an unexplainable turn and in desperation for answers, Lytie’s journey of self-discovery took him across to the United States. The three-month trip was a life-changing experience which he will never forget, and upon returning to the UK, Lytie cemented his faith and lost relationship with Christ; sparking a new direction towards the Gospel music genre.
Walking in the blessings of our heavenly father Lytie now has shared the stage with some of the biggest gospel artists from around the world with recent performances with gospel music legend Fred Hammond.
