Bryshere Y. Gray has won fame and acclaim for playing Hakeem Lyon on the hit TV show ‘Empire.’

Synopsis

Rapper and actor Bryshere Y. Gray started performing as a teenager. He took the stage name Yazz the Greatest and appeared at the Man in America Festival in 2013. The following year, Gray took the world by storm with his first acting role. He took on the part of Hakeem Lyon, the youngest son of music mogul Lucious Lyon, on the hit TV series Empire. In addition to acting, Gray has performed on the show as well. He has been signed to Columbia Records.

Early Life and Career

Born in 1993, Bryshere Y. Gray has risen to fame as Hakeem Lyon on the hit TV drama Empire. He and his sister were raised by a single mother in West Philadelphia. Gray played football at Overbrook High School, but he switched to music after getting injured when he was 16 years old.
As he told Vibe, Gray was working at Pizza Hut when he started out rapping. “I started rhyming and really fell in love with it.” In fact, he used some of his Pizza Hut money to fund his first music video. Gray was eventually fired for writing songs on the job. Enthusiastic about his music, he began performing everywhere he could, including the streets, and eventually took the name Yazz the Greatest. As he explained to HipHopDX, “Yazz was something I created while trying to form a rap flow and it just turned into that. I didn’t want something that sounded now, just something different.”
