Lawrence Alexander is an NYC artist on the rise. The pop and R&B songwriter has had quite a journey so far in the musical world, being involved in Broadway for several years performing in the hit show The Lion King. After that intense period of time, Lawrence decided to take a step back from musical theatre and instead focus on his true passion for making and releasing music. Since then, the video for his single ‘For Sure’ won Best Grand Jury Music Video at the illustrious Awareness Film Festival in LA, and he went onto release his debut EP ‘Naked’.

After these successes, Lawrence now returns in 2023 with the sumptuous hook-ridden R&B single ‘Doors’. Full of catchy hooks and angelic vocals, Alexander radiates in this pop-woven gem, with heartfelt songwriting and a nostalgic flavour to it in the mould of Beyonce and Frank Ocean put together. His voice stands out above all else, and you can hear the emotion and feeling in his voice, as he effortlessly floats above the grand and fresh production.

The soulful endeavour of ‘Doors’ is prevalent from the off, with Lawrence Alexander showcasing his potential as an artist to relate to and invest in. It’s timeless music from him, in what is a genre that is so hard to get right, Lawrence does it in spades with this succinct and melodically flowing release.

It’s clear that the big stage suits Lawrence Alexander in more ways than one, and ‘Doors’ is the prime example of why this R&B rising star has everything in his repertoire to stand above the crowd. Lawrence says “This is a great top of the summer song. Fun, contemplative, sexy and “aware” type of tune. It’s timely yet sexy, with a message of unveiling…” For fans of alternative R&B, pop and everything in between, ‘Doors’ is a song to watch out for.
