In 2000, Alonzo Williams worked with Lionel Land and together we begin writing a skit for the Boys and Girls Club choir. Williams continued writing and directing The Anionted Voices until May 2002.  After graduating from Meridian Community College, and majoring in Music Education, he went on to attend The University of Southern Mississippi where he majored in Business, with a minor in Voice.
