Meet Audrey Williams: Soul Singer & Actress

We had the good fortune of connecting with Audrey Williams and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Audrey, is there something that you feel is most responsible for your success?
Authenticity. In a world of double mindedness many desire truth minus the grey area. I strive on not just embracing my truths but also being mindful to not be ashamed of my process. This Renaissance Woman understands that there is something instilled in her dna that forbids her from quitting! The success comes from p.u.s.h.ing (praying.until.specifics.happen)
Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
My lyrical honesty sets me aside from others. While many artist are interested in making a song to a hot beat to make a few dollars I’m only interested in melodic healing. Is what I’m releasing ministering to the soul of another person? Is it helping them or hindering them? My music is my ministry and I have to remain accountable at all times for what I allow my mouth to speak/sing. I decided to take my gift serious after my first car accident. Contacted my then producer told him I wanted to record and that I needed the music so I could start writing and 5 months later I was recording my debut album. 10 tracks in 6 days. The determination was a force to be reckoned with! Since then I have been blessed to grace countless stages, sell out of albums, downloads from countries only my gift has been in. The acting was another part of the dream but after college I steered away. But while I was standing in a studio audience line at Tyler Perry studios a casting agency team member approached me and asked if I wanted to be on set for the hit series Greenleaf on the OWN network. Of COURSE I said yes because it was one of my favorite shows! Been on set ever since 😍 Close to 20 tv shows/movies in a year and a half time. The timing of God is amazing! I wouldn’t say any of the process was easy but willingness to be true to yourself and not afraid to tell your story can be shaking at times. Only because you have to get to the root of who you are and be unapologetically you regardless of the stares! Who cares about fall? Regain focus. Understand. Grow and GO! I have learned that the Bible is right when the scripture says to be anxious for nothing! Despite some praying for the downfall you will always have more for you than against you! Endurance throughout every season is mandatory. I would like people to know that my story is not perfect however every step has made the weight worth the wait! My brand is built upon a gift from God. Victory is the only outcome.
If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
I would take my best friend to Touch Down Wings to try their honey hot wings extra crispy. I don’t drink alcohol so kool aid will suffice lol. I would take them to visit Kats Cafe because I love live music plus it free to get in. Grown and sexy effect. I would also take them to Atlantic Station because not only can you shop but also get amazing views of the Atlanta skyline. And of COURSE I would have to have them come with me to church on Sunday so they can experience a deliverance service
Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
My TeamDreamers, my grandfather, my best friend Akeiba Manley, Tanyika Oliver-Williams, Apostle Lathrey Majors, family, associates and co stars/workers
