00:00:11American Idol is the gold standard in finding talent.
00:00:16How's it going, man?
00:00:17Last season, we got to hear Jamal sing,
00:00:19and then a few months later, he's nominated for a Grammy.
00:00:22And let me bask in your light.
00:00:26You know I'll be there for the first to get to it.
00:00:28That's what we sit in the chair for,
00:00:30to hopefully find those next superstars.
00:00:35Jamal Roberts!
00:00:36It just takes one year.
00:00:38Life will change forever.
00:00:42Welcome to the show.
00:00:43Take it all in.
00:00:44Oh, my goodness.
00:00:45Wow.
00:00:46I love American Idol.
00:00:47I've watched it since I was a kid.
00:00:48Even this last season, I actually got to meet Jamal Roberts,
00:00:51and he was amazing.
00:00:56Phenomenal singer.
00:00:57I got to see him in concert, and incredible vocalist,
00:00:59great stage presence.
00:01:01I love him so much.
00:01:02You look like you're pretty excited.
00:01:03I am.
00:01:04I'm very excited.
00:01:05My name is Jordan McCullough.
00:01:07I'm 27, and I'm from Murfreesboro, Tennessee.
00:01:09Where'd you grow up performing at?
00:01:11In church.
00:01:12That's where I got my start.
00:01:13I didn't know that any of this was a possibility
00:01:16outside of the choir stand.
00:01:17So just four years old, I was singing in the choir.
00:01:20And yeah, that's where it started.
00:01:22Very cool.
00:01:22All right.
00:01:23Well, what are you going to sing today?
00:01:24Well, we're going to bring the choir stand here,
00:01:25and I'm going to sing Goodness of God.
00:01:27Yay!
00:01:28So good.
00:01:29All right.
00:01:36I love you, Lord.
00:01:42Oh, your mercy never failed me in all my days.
00:01:49I've been held in your head.
00:01:52From the moment that I wake up until I lay my head, oh, I will sing of the goodness of
00:02:07God.
00:02:11All my life, you have been faithful, oh, yes, you have.
00:02:19All my life, you have been so, so good with every breath that I have made, oh, oh, I will
00:02:34sing of the goodness of God.
00:02:38Yes.
00:02:41Thank you, Lord.
00:02:43Your goodness running after, running after me.
00:02:49Your goodness is running after, running after me.
00:02:56With my life laid out, I'm surrendering out
00:03:01I give you everything
00:03:05Your goodness is running after
00:03:09Running after me

00:03:32You have been given an incredible gift
00:03:34Wow
00:03:36And I love that you use it
00:03:37I mean, the first two words out of your mouth

00:09:37I wouldn't have it any other way
00:09:39What kind of music do you play?
00:09:40I do a lot of everything
00:09:42But I really want to go for pop rock
00:09:45I've been in a lot of bands
00:09:46And I did harsh vocals and stuff like that
00:09:48So I would be singing today
00:09:50Not doing that

00:13:56I'm going to Hollywood quick!
00:13:58Carrie called me top 30 and I almost fell to the ground.
00:14:01I almost fell to the ground.
00:14:02It's insane.
00:14:04I'm glad she believes in me.
00:14:06I am so ready for this.
00:14:08Oh, you know I've been looking for my rockers.
00:14:10I'm like they're screaming.
00:14:12So there's a technique you can do that and it's not.
00:14:15Can you do it that way?
00:14:16Yes, but I've never done such things outside of my car.
00:14:29We're coming around the corner.
00:14:31LaGrange, Georgia.
00:14:32Where are all you folks around here, man?
00:14:35LaGrange.
00:14:36Na na na na na na na na na na na na.
00:14:41I'm ready for that.
00:14:43Ha ha ha ha.
00:14:46ZZ Top?
00:14:47Really?
00:14:48Isn't that LaGrange?
00:14:50That's LaGrange.
00:14:51Ha ha ha ha.
00:14:53Ha ha ha.
00:14:53Ha ha ha.
00:14:54Ha ha ha.
00:14:54All right.
00:14:55Take a lift.
00:14:57Ha ha ha.
00:14:57How are you?
00:14:58Good.
00:14:58How are y'all?
00:14:59Good.
00:15:00Well, you came in so comfortable.
00:15:02Very chill, man.
00:15:03So tell us who you are.
00:15:04Where are you from?
00:15:05Your age?
00:15:06My name's Philman Lee.
00:15:07I'm from LaGrange, Georgia.
00:15:08And I'm 25 years old.
00:15:10Philman, that's right down the street from Tuskegee.
00:15:12Shout out.
00:15:12There you go.
00:15:13What do you do for a living?
00:15:14So right now I'm in insurance sales.
00:15:16I do life insurance.
00:15:17It's all virtual.
00:15:18Talk with people all day long.
00:15:23Hello.
00:15:24Corlin, this is Philman.
00:15:25How are you doing?
00:15:26I'm an insurance broker.
00:15:27I see where you inquired about some life insurance coverage pretty recently.
00:15:34I do insurance now, but that's not the end goal.
00:15:40I want to sing every single night if I can.
00:15:47I've been a musician my whole life.
00:15:49All credit really to my dad.
00:15:51He toured around with a gospel quartet group.
00:15:54And I was on a tour bus with him ever since I was like four years old.
00:15:57It definitely gave me a hunger.
00:15:59You know, even being a kid, that's what I want to do for the rest of my life.
00:16:02I've been trying all this time.
00:16:04I got into music after I dropped out of college.
00:16:06And I eventually ended up signing with a major label.
00:16:09Still can't climb the mountains of my mind.
00:16:12I was able to record a lot and it looked like it was going to be pretty promising.
00:16:16And then when COVID hit, it just kind of plateaued and I got shelved.
00:16:21You know, I obviously wasn't making any money.
00:16:22That's when I picked up insurance.
00:16:24Don't worry, I'll be fine.
00:16:26But I still can't climb the mountains of my mind.
00:16:30My family, you know, they were there every step of the way.
00:16:32The nights that I would cry because I'm not singing, I'm not doing music,
00:16:36and I thought I would never have another chance at it.
00:16:39They were definitely there for every single one of those moments.
00:16:41I got faith in you, brother.
00:16:43You got it in your baby pool.
00:16:44We've been in your corner all your life.
00:16:47We love you so much, little buddy.
00:16:49American Idol's another chance at doing what I love and getting my foot back in the door.
00:16:53I have a voice and I want it to be heard.
00:17:07Come on now.
00:17:17When a man loves a woman, can't keep his mind on nothing else.
00:17:29He treats the world for the good things he's found.
00:17:38If she is bad, he can't see it.
00:17:45She can do no harm.
00:17:51Turn his back on his best friend, he puts her down.
00:18:01When a man loves a woman, I give you everything I got.
00:18:16Hey, yeah.
00:18:20Trying to hold on to your precious love.
00:18:28And baby, baby, please don't treat me bad.
00:18:37When a man loves a woman, I want to keep down in his soul.
00:18:50She can't bring you such mystery
00:18:57Wow.
00:19:03You know, there's a difference between bent down and broke down.
00:19:06You were in both conditions.
00:19:08I'm talking about it.
00:19:09I mean, you were down.
00:19:11You were down.
00:19:11I said, how low is he going to go?
00:19:13Oh, man.
00:19:14No, you wouldn't know.
00:19:15That was great interpretation, man.
00:19:17Carrie, what do you think about this?
00:19:18Wonderful gentleman.
00:19:20Surprising.
00:19:21Like, you just walk in and you're just so chill and calm
00:19:25and then you open your mouth to sing, hands in your pockets.
00:19:29Sorry.
00:19:31No, you're good.
00:19:32I was like, is he going to...
00:19:33I'm going to have to go take his hands out of his pockets.
00:19:35I was pleasantly surprised.
00:19:38You can't learn what you just did.
00:19:40Regardless of whatever else you think you were trying to do,
00:19:43do more of that.
00:19:45Carrie reminded me of my mom.
00:19:47Take your hands out your pocket and look the folks straight in the face.
00:19:51That's all you need to do.
00:19:52In other words, now you have to become the character.
00:19:54Yes, sir.
00:19:55And if you're really, really lucky and blessed,
00:19:58you won't have to worry about insurance except on your voice.
00:20:00And that's going to be covering you.
00:20:02Sounds good to me.
00:20:03Luke?
00:20:04Making another Georgia boy proud.
00:20:06Come on.
00:20:07We've had ten people today
00:20:09that look like they've been trained to sing
00:20:11and you look like you were born to sing.
00:20:13Nah.
00:20:16The fun part about this business,
00:20:18we can't judge any book by any cover.
00:20:20We just have to let you sing
00:20:22and then, man, when we get somebody like you,
00:20:25it's pretty dang exciting.
00:20:26Yeah.
00:20:26It made me cry, man.
00:20:28Yeah.
00:20:28It is now, I think it's your turn to shine.
00:20:31I think we should just take a vote.
00:20:33All right.
00:20:34Carrie, what do you think?
00:20:34Yes.
00:20:35Boom.
00:20:36Luke, what do you think?
00:20:38Yes.
00:20:38Boom.
00:20:39We're not selling insurance,
00:20:40but we're definitely selling tickets.
00:20:42Welcome to Hollywood week, babes.
00:20:44Good job.
00:20:46Get down, baby.
00:20:47I'm going to start crying.
00:20:48I don't know.
00:20:49Georgia boy.
00:20:50Yes, sir.
00:20:55Here it comes.
00:21:01They're not, Jill.
00:21:02Yes.
00:21:10I had a lot of family and friends here with me today
00:21:12that have seen nothing but ups and downs.
00:21:16Definitely felt like music slowed down for me a lot
00:21:18and I didn't see another way back into it.
00:21:20Yo, that'd be so good.
00:21:21But I believe my life definitely changed with this audition.
00:21:25I'm going to Hollywood week.
00:21:27Holy cow!
00:21:29Shout out to the insurance company I work for.
00:21:32Thank you all for the job.
00:21:33And I will be taking some time off.
00:21:37Simple play.
00:21:44You know what my mother used to stop and get me for breakfast?
00:21:47A glass of 20-ounce Mountain Dew.
00:21:49Wow.
00:21:50And a sleeve of powdered donuts.
00:21:52Wow.
00:21:53Okay, we're about to start.
00:21:54Let's hold everything.
00:21:55Luke needs to have his breakfast burrito.
00:21:57The burrito!
00:21:58No, it's just arriving.
00:22:00It'll be ten more minutes, everyone.
00:22:02Ten more.
00:22:02Oh, my God.
00:22:03Must be blue.
00:22:04He's going to have a rushed burrito.
00:22:06Fast burrito.
00:22:07There's burrito and then there's fast burrito.
00:22:10I'm going to have one more bite and I'll be ready.
00:22:15Is there a napkin?
00:22:17Ah.
00:22:25Brrrr.
00:22:28Two seconds.
00:22:29Here we go, guys.
00:22:31All right.
00:22:32And here we go.
00:22:36We made it.
00:22:37Look at it!
00:22:38Ah!
00:22:41My name is Livvy.
00:22:42I'm 22 years old from a small town called Shinston, West Virginia.
00:22:46And I am a server at Texas Roadhouse.
00:22:48Everybody here.
00:22:49Uh-oh.
00:22:49Here we go.
00:22:51Yes!
00:22:52No one's going on.
00:22:53How are we doing today?
00:22:55My name's Livvy.
00:22:56Welcome to Texas Roadhouse.
00:22:57I'll be serving you.
00:22:58We're going to get y'all started with some drink.
00:22:59We got some Coke products, sweet tea.
00:23:02And, Luke, we got that one margarita, two margaritas, three margaritas.
00:23:07Plenty of shots.
00:23:07You didn't bring a shot?
00:23:08Oh, you got some peanuts.
00:23:10I do.
00:23:10Yes!
00:23:11Can I give them peanuts?
00:23:11Yes.
00:23:12Today for the judges, I'm bringing the energy.
00:23:14I'm bringing the rolls.
00:23:15And I'm bringing my personality for them.
00:23:18That's not a server's out.
00:23:19Is that your outfit?
00:23:21Do you wear that?
00:23:21Oh, this is my outfit.
00:23:22You know, I got to look sexy for you guys.
00:23:24Got to look snazzy.
00:23:25She's making a mess, by the way.
00:23:28I've got it contained.
00:23:29This is so good.
00:23:31The main place I sing would have to be my job.
00:23:33We do a thing called give us a Texas size yeehaw for the birthdays.
00:23:37So I started singing happy birthday.
00:23:39And people were posting me on TikTok.
00:23:41Things were growing up.
00:23:42Yeah.
00:23:47Luke, I think my mom's about to have a heart attack.
00:23:50If she sees you, she thinks you're the sexiest man alive.
00:23:53Oh, no, mama.
00:23:55Oh, Luke, come on.
00:23:58Please.
00:23:58She said, on the way of her, she said, is Luke married?
00:24:01I said, yes, mom, he's married.
00:24:03He said, he ain't going to be married by the time I get in there.
00:24:05Oh, boy.
00:24:07You better get prepared.
00:24:08That little Italian woman's about to come get you.
00:24:11Security, security.
00:24:13Well, good deal.
00:24:14Well, what are you going to sing today?
00:24:15I'm singing Love Wins by Carrie Underwood.
00:24:18Oh.
00:24:19All right.
00:24:20Let's hear it.
00:24:21Absolutely.
00:24:25I'm going to stop smacking.
00:24:28Oh.
00:24:36Straight bullet and a mama cries.
00:24:40Her baby won't be coming home tonight.
00:24:43Siren screaming down the avenue.
00:24:46Just another story on the evening news.
00:24:49Oh, and so it goes.
00:24:52But I hold on to hope and I won't let go.
00:24:56Cause I, I believe you and me are sisters and brothers and I, I believe we're made to be here
00:25:09for each other.
00:25:10We'll never fall if we walk hand in hand for the world that seems broken together again.
00:25:16I, I, I, I believe in the end love wins.
00:25:33Um, Carrie, is she pushing too hard?
00:25:35Might be a little bit.
00:25:37You, you have a, such a big instrument.
00:25:39And I feel like sometimes if you start off out of the gate going a hundred miles an hour, there's
00:25:45nowhere left to go.
00:25:46Absolutely.
00:25:47Friendly, can we do a, play that chorus soft.
00:25:53Sing it soft one time.
00:25:55Absolutely.
00:25:55Real relax.
00:25:57I, I, I, I believe you and me are sisters and brothers and I, I, I believe in the end
00:26:11love wins.
00:26:14That was so much more emotional.
00:26:18Oh my gosh.
00:26:20Hello.
00:26:20That was really nice.
00:26:22Was it enough for maybe you to eat both those?
00:26:25Can I have your biscuits?
00:26:27Get Lionel's.
00:26:29Give me Lionel's.
00:26:30You have enough.
00:26:31My vote is yes.
00:26:34I'm excited to see what you do next.
00:26:36And please show us all the sides.
00:26:39Your softer side, your powerful side.
00:26:41Yes for me.
00:26:42You're a queen.
00:26:42Oh my gosh.
00:26:43You're a queen.
00:26:43You're a good enough singer to not have to push so hard, really focus on capturing the emotion like you
00:26:48don't on that second go around.
00:26:49I'm a yes.
00:26:50Oh, thank you.
00:26:51Thank you, Luke.
00:26:52Lionel, what are you?
00:26:53I'm full.
00:26:55I'm sorry.
00:26:56It is an absolute yes for me.
00:26:58Thank you, guys.
00:26:59And let me tell you something.
00:27:00And I mean this from the heart.
00:27:01You're a sweetheart.
00:27:02And if you just calm down and put that voice out there, you've got something magical.
00:27:07Thank you, Lionel.
00:27:09You need this.
00:27:11Thank you, guys.
00:27:11We're going to Hollywood.
00:27:12Oh, my God.
00:27:16Remember, Mama, Mama.
00:27:17Mama, here we go.
00:27:19Oh, my God.
00:27:20Mama Maria.
00:27:22She got the chance to meet Luke.
00:27:23And I think Luke was a little scared.
00:27:25Oh, my God.
00:27:26Can you see who that is?
00:27:27Wait.
00:27:30Get him.
00:27:31Oh, Mama.
00:27:32Get him.
00:27:32He's been warm.
00:27:34Oh, my God.
00:27:38Oh, my God.
00:27:44You know, I worked my butt off for this.
00:27:48Like, Gary Underwood, Gabby Barrett, all these people have held the stick.
00:27:52And now, again, I'm like, now it's my turn.
00:27:55That's all I'm going to say.
00:27:56I'm ready to show the world what I can do.
00:27:57And let's win this, baby.
00:27:59Let's do it.
00:28:00We're going to Hollywood week.
00:28:02Let's give him a big old Texas sign.
00:28:04Yee-haw!
00:28:06Yee-haw!
00:28:07Yee-haw!
00:28:08Yee-haw!
00:28:11Yee-haw!
00:28:13Hello!
00:28:14My name is Miyaka.
00:28:15And I'm 24-year-old.
00:28:16And I'm from Ukraine.
00:28:31I sing Japanese, though.
00:28:33I don't speak Japanese for now.
00:28:35I still learn English.
00:28:37I can sing opera, rock, jazz, whatever.
00:28:40And I was thinking, which style matches me the most?
00:28:43And when I started to work with anime project, I felt like that.
00:29:03From the moment when I started singing, I knew for sure that I'm going to be on stage.
00:29:08That I have enough energy to have a stadium, to have a huge concert.
00:29:12And I really, really want to share this with you guys.
00:29:21I've taken out of my mind.
00:29:28Wow.
00:29:29Wow.
00:29:30Wow.
00:29:31It's exactly what I want.
00:29:33I love her.
00:29:35I really love your energy.
00:29:37I love everything you're about.
00:29:40You are a star.
00:29:42You are a star.
00:29:44I thought it was very good.
00:29:46I love your energy.
00:29:48In this arena, we do not have an anime night.
00:29:54So I'm not sure this is the avenue.
00:29:57But we enjoy your uniqueness.
00:30:00If I could take your energy and cut it in half.
00:30:03If I could take your vocals and cut it in half.
00:30:07We put the baby got back through.
00:30:09I like big butts.
00:30:11And I cannot lie.
00:30:14I like you, Trace.
00:30:15We got to check y'all's ears.
00:30:17We're not going to put her through.
00:30:18You're hitting on something.
00:30:20I'm hitting on a good point.
00:30:22When Luke has a moment, we recognize.
00:30:26This is my baby got back dude moment.
00:30:28There's show business and then there's entertainment.
00:30:30And we don't want theater.
00:30:32We want that pop singer.
00:30:34I can do it.
00:30:46I think the only way you're going to know what we're talking about is to put you in the class.
00:30:53You know what I'm thinking?
00:30:53I'm thinking we don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't put the muscle, don't put the
00:30:59muscle, don't put the muscle.
00:31:00Yeah, we're not trying to force Carrie into anything.
00:31:03What do you think, Carrie?
00:31:04You don't need me.
00:31:05Say it.
00:31:06You don't need me.
00:31:07Just say what your vote is.
00:31:09It's a no for me.
00:31:10Oh, what is our vote, Lionel?
00:31:13I'm a big old yes.
00:31:14I'm a big old yes.
00:31:15There you go.
00:31:16I go, yeah?
00:31:17You're going to Hollywood week.
00:31:18You're going to Hollywood week.
00:31:21Guys, we did it.
00:31:22Woo!
00:31:24I love it.
00:31:24Thanks for Kono Bull, Mila.
00:31:26I know, I love it.
00:31:27I love it.
00:31:28So for our next step, I definitely have one extra challenge.
00:31:31It's to get yes from Carrie.
00:31:37Hollywood week, I'm coming.
00:31:40Carrie, I know this has damaged our judging relationship just a wee bit.
00:31:46Year two with Carrie, she can dig her heels in.
00:31:49I would love to hang out with her.
00:31:50No, totally.
00:31:51She is like Miss Cheerleader, awesome.
00:31:53I did not find that entertaining.
00:31:55She is 1,000% comfortable in her role as a judge.
00:32:01Well, we'll just have to see what America wants to do.
00:32:04That's my thing.
00:32:05She's great.
00:32:06I like her.
00:32:07There were several times that me and Carrie, we kind of got at odds.
00:32:13Our brains just are working differently, which is great.
00:32:15It's definitely more than Baby Got Back, dudes.
00:32:18Y'all are mean.
00:32:20You would be one that by the end of it, it would be like, do you remember his first audition
00:32:25and look how far he's come.
00:32:27I'm a yes.
00:32:28I'm a no.
00:32:29Boo.
00:32:30That was great.
00:32:32She's going to fight for her kids and the talent.
00:32:35The kind of intro, emo, I just worry about that.
00:32:41Yeah, but he said he likes Fall Out Boy.
00:32:44I know, but...
00:32:45Do you do stuff like that that's like, you can start out all quiet and then the drums kick
00:32:49in and...
00:32:50I do.
00:32:51See?
00:32:51He does.
00:32:53I'm a no.
00:32:55Shocker.
00:32:56Shocker.
00:32:57If we disagree on something.
00:33:00Oh, are we going to beef?
00:33:02It's too late.
00:33:03You're going to have some flat tires.
00:33:06It's all in love, you know?
00:33:09Hello.
00:33:10Got a whole band with you, trio.
00:33:12All right, well, who are you?
00:33:14My name is Vincent Fondo.
00:33:15Well, who's your crew here?
00:33:17Well, this is my band.
00:33:18We've been together for 18 years.
00:33:19Where are you from?
00:33:20I'm from Cleveland, Ohio.
00:33:22What do you do up there in Cleveland?
00:33:23I do concrete with my brother, and I've created this band up there.
00:33:28What's the name of the band?
00:33:29It's named Recess.
00:33:30Recess?
00:33:31Yeah.
00:33:31We just think of it as like a break from every day.
00:33:34Awesome.
00:33:35What are you going to sing today?
00:33:36I'm going to sing an original song we actually wrote in 2019.
00:33:40We felt like we were going to break up, and instead of breaking up, we just came out with
00:33:45this song.
00:33:45Lionel and I thought we were going to break up in 2019.
00:33:48Never.
00:33:48We were going to stay together no matter what.
00:33:50Stronger than ever.
00:33:52Let's go.
00:33:53Let's go.
00:33:56When every minute heightens my confusion
00:34:00Till I can feel the fall from space
00:34:05How come you look so close like you're right in front of me?
00:34:11And if they say that time is an illusion
00:34:14Why can't you see it on my face?
00:34:20How come you look so close but you feel so far away?
00:34:33Oh, how come you look so close?
00:34:41Oh, how come you look so close?
00:34:47Oh, how come you look so close?
00:34:58Oh, how come you look so close?
00:34:59I know I'm halfway there but I'm just not close enough
00:35:03Oh, I know it's over
00:35:07But it just won't stop
00:35:10Oh, ringing in my ear and the sound of giving up
00:35:17Oh, and I know it's over
00:35:20But it's all I've got
00:35:25Ringing in my ear and the sound of giving up
00:35:35Thank you
00:35:37I'm really excited about you
00:35:40You have this beautiful voice
00:35:42I have no words
00:35:44I'm a little on the other side of the fence
00:35:48Are you serious?
00:35:49Yes
00:35:50Are you serious?
00:35:51You've got big notes
00:35:52But I thought when you're doing the tender stuff
00:35:55It's almost not really connecting with me all the way
00:35:58It's just not reaching in me and pulling like emotions out right now
00:36:02It's honest
00:36:03Lionel, what you think about our concrete boy?
00:36:05Our concrete brother, yeah
00:36:06Was that a concrete, solid performance?
00:36:08Concrete work may not be where you're going to end up with this thing
00:36:10If you sound like an old seasoned guy with that voice
00:36:13You know, you kind of know where you're going with that bad boy
00:36:16It's a yes for me
00:36:17Oh!
00:36:18It's a yes for me
00:36:19She's already won Lionel over
00:36:20You can see the headlines now
00:36:22No, no, it's going to be a good season
00:36:23Carrying Luke at odds
00:36:25I can vote
00:36:27I'm a no
00:36:28You are dead inside
00:36:31It's a yes for me
00:36:32The concrete boy looks like he has cemented himself
00:36:36Wow
00:36:37In the Hollywood week
00:36:38Congratulations
00:36:39I'm going to give this to you
00:36:40You're going to Hollywood week, babe
00:36:41You're getting a
00:36:42And you get a hug
00:36:43Express delivery from Carrie Underwood
00:36:45Thank you so much
00:36:47Thank you
00:36:47Congratulations
00:36:48Very cool
00:36:49Seeing Carrie and Luke at odds was very stunning
00:36:51She never gets mad and mean at anything
00:36:54I'm just glad Carrie was on my side
00:36:57And I was able to move through
00:36:58Carrie's coming strong, okay
00:37:00Watch him
00:37:02Yeah
00:37:04Carrie and I are already
00:37:06Incapable of being in the room with one another
00:37:11It's Nicki Minaj all over again
00:37:13Oh, no, no, no
00:37:24I am feeling very, very nervous
00:37:26I've had the jitters all day
00:37:29Were you ever nervous?
00:37:31Like on Idol?
00:37:31Yes
00:37:32Of course
00:37:32I was horrified
00:37:34Were you nervous?
00:37:35A little bit
00:37:36I've never done anything like this before
00:37:38For me
00:37:39If I'm slightly doubtful
00:37:45Once I grab the mic
00:37:46It's only one way
00:37:49I gotta go that way
00:37:51Or you're kind of a superpower
00:37:52You just take charge
00:37:53Well, that's the mark of an entertainer
00:37:57That's a superstar
00:37:58Because you're going to figure it out
00:38:00Or you're not
00:38:00Hopefully I can impress the judges
00:38:02I will be giving it my absolute all
00:38:07Right this way

00:38:49And I'm currently in high school
00:38:51Yeah, it was my first time on a plane
00:38:53Did your family come with you?

00:38:59And I really like you
00:39:00I'm sorry
00:39:02Anyways, yeah
00:39:03I'm going to go ahead and start for you guys

00:39:07No, no, no
00:39:08We're just really learning about you
00:39:10So from Arizona to here
00:39:12What was the leap of faith?
00:39:13I mean, American Idol
00:39:14Come on
00:39:16My dad
00:39:18He's in the ICU right now
00:39:20So
00:39:22So this is all for him
00:39:23I'm doing this for him
00:39:25He believed in me
00:39:25And I'm here
00:39:26And I want this more than ever now
00:39:28Pick it up
00:39:30Pick it up
00:39:31I'm very insecure about my voice
00:39:34But my dad believed in me when nobody else did
00:39:37He saw it in me
00:39:38Even when I didn't see it myself
00:39:42My dad is the kindest person in the world
00:39:45But at the same time
00:39:47He was struggling with addiction
00:39:49Since before I was born
00:39:52There were so many nights
00:39:53I would just cry from watching my dad stumble upstairs
00:40:01And he would say
00:40:03Tonight's going to be my last drink
00:40:05Every day
00:40:06You could still be what you want to
00:40:10What you said you were
00:40:12Recently he has been getting better
00:40:14Because he stopped
00:40:15But he now has liver failure
00:40:18And is currently awaiting a transplant
00:40:27I really want my dad to be in my future
00:40:30But this could be my last chance
00:40:33To show him his daughter tried for him
00:40:41I am going to be singing
00:40:43Tell Me You Love Me by Demi Lovato
00:40:44So I hope you guys like it

00:49:19This is terrible
00:49:22I'm Nyla Martin
00:49:24I'm 17 years old

00:49:45Maybe not today
00:49:48Yeah not today
00:49:51My whole life
00:49:52Has revolved around singing

00:49:56Yeah your character
00:49:57Everywhere she goes
00:49:58She's trying to sing
00:49:59She's gonna ask somebody random
00:50:00And if they say no
00:50:01She's still gonna sing
00:50:04I've never met a famous person
00:50:06So when I see them in person
00:50:07I'm gonna be like
00:50:09Like I don't know
00:50:10I really hope not
00:50:11Because that would be embarrassing
00:50:12But I'm gonna try to keep it cool
00:50:14And calm and collected

00:52:48There were some moments where you dialed it back
00:52:50And they were really beautiful notes
00:52:52Really nice
00:52:53But you can tell singing means a lot to you
00:52:55And this moment means a lot to you
00:52:57I almost want to see how much you can grow in this competition
00:53:00I don't like that
00:53:01She went 200,000 feet straight up
00:53:04And landed the plane all in one piece
00:53:08God bless you with an instrument
00:53:10But for me it's a teaching moment
00:53:13That I really want to tell you about
00:53:14Because curls you have
00:53:17Range you have
00:53:19If you had let's say an hour show
00:53:23You just gave the whole show away in the first song
00:53:26You could have done half of that
00:53:27And still walked out of here with the prize
00:53:30If you could just learn to edit
00:53:31I think you'd be well on your way
00:53:33Thank you
00:53:36I'm a yes
00:53:39Less is more

00:56:36Wildest Dreams that he wrote actually
00:56:38Love it
00:56:39I'm singing Wildest Dreams that my dad had written
00:56:42He had written that song about his children
00:56:44It's a song about how much you love somebody
00:56:46I'm gonna be singing for my dad
00:56:48It's my way of telling him I love him too
00:56:50I would not be where I am today without him
00:56:55Only in a dream
00:56:58Would I be feeling this way
00:57:01And it would be a nightmare lady
00:57:10If you ever ran away
00:57:16Because you are the reason
00:57:19For the way that I feel
00:57:22Is this love a dream or is it for real?
00:57:28And if this is a dream
00:57:30I'd sleep a thousand years
00:57:33And wake up to find you
00:57:36Lying right here
00:57:40Cause in my wildest dreams
00:57:47Never would I believe
00:57:51You could love an old man like me
00:57:57I'm just as calm as I can be
00:58:03This love could only happen to me
00:58:11In my wildest dreams

00:59:55What this is all about

00:59:56It's just a moment
00:59:57That we will have forever
00:59:59In our lives
00:59:59Together as father and son
01:00:02I'm going to Hollywood baby
01:00:04I really want to tell stories
01:00:21I'm a storyteller with my music
01:00:23I've been writing songs
01:00:25As long as I can remember
01:00:26The first one was when I was like five
01:00:28So what are you going to do for us?
01:00:30I'm going to play an original song
01:00:32That I wrote for my long distance friends
01:00:33And it's called
01:00:34Long Live the Lost Boys
01:00:36Okay
01:00:37We're ready for you
01:00:41She was by the window
01:00:43With adventure in her eyes
01:00:45Wondering while he's out there
01:00:47Waiting on the other side
01:00:50And he said
01:00:50Make my hand and I
01:00:52Will teach you how to fly
01:00:55He said
01:00:56I
01:00:56I can see it in your eyes
01:00:59Cause you're one of the misfits
01:01:01Always doing things
01:01:02That they don't get
01:01:03Not from taking all of their worst hits
01:01:06Cause you won't fit into their mold
01:01:09So long live the lost boys running home
01:01:12And never let them tame your soul
01:01:15Long live the ones who never grow old
01:01:22That I'm going to tell you right now
01:01:24I'll buy the first copy
01:01:26I'm a fan of It Doesn't Fit
01:01:29It Fits Because It's You
01:01:31And your original song
01:01:32Basically described you to a T
01:01:34Thank you
01:01:36It's a yes for me
01:01:37Thank you so much
01:01:38You are super duper unique
01:01:42But I'm trying to see where you would fit
01:01:45In the context of artists today
01:01:48And it's like can we channel all of that uniqueness
01:01:52Into something where you can be
01:01:55You and your artistry
01:01:56But it also just makes total sense to the listener
01:02:01I could be right or you could make me look real dumb someday
01:02:05I think I'm going to have to give you a no
01:02:07So Luke it is
01:02:10It's down to you sir
01:02:11What do we do with this little creative creature
01:02:14Gosh I don't know what to do with you
01:02:17I'm very confused
01:02:24I'm a yes
01:02:25Yes

01:02:30You're going to do great things

01:03:36I'm from Montgomery, Alabama
01:03:38No way
01:03:39Down the street
01:03:40Down the street
01:03:41Tuskegee man
01:03:42All right
01:03:43Yeah man
01:03:44Any musical background in the family
01:03:46Or just you?
01:03:48My uncle Lionel
01:03:49Uncle who?
01:03:50Lionel
01:03:52Sounds like a good individual
01:03:55My first memory of music
01:03:58Me and my mom
01:03:58Actually used to watch American Idol
01:04:00That was my first memory of like loving music
01:04:03And yeah
01:04:04He once tried to run away to Hollywood
01:04:06And he was just gonna run away with a guitar
01:04:08And sing on the street
01:04:11I thought it was crazy
01:04:13Yeah
01:04:14And he was determined
01:04:15And I'm glad you kept that energy bro
01:04:18Despite what anybody said about you bro
01:04:19I appreciate it
01:04:20For real
01:04:20I gotta see them things
01:04:23Hurt my heart
01:04:25Growing up was tough
01:04:28My mom was on drugs
01:04:29There was a lot of times we didn't have water on
01:04:32Lights on
01:04:33I had to take care of my little siblings
01:04:37My mom had a hard life
01:04:39And truthfully
01:04:40My mom went through the same thing
01:04:41I had to go through
01:04:42You know
01:04:43History repeats itself
01:04:47Eventually our family stepped in
01:04:49And my mom got clean
01:04:51And she was actually really trying to change
01:04:54And make things better
01:04:59I lost my mom
01:05:01In 2022
01:05:07I had just started to understand
01:05:09I had just started to understand at that time
01:05:11And I had just started to forgive
01:05:13For a lot of things that we went through
01:05:16As kids
01:05:18It was hard
01:05:20It was very hard
01:05:22That's what it sounds like
01:05:24When a man cries
01:05:33This was a very special moment
01:05:34Not only for me
01:05:35But for my family
01:05:40For me it's more than auditioning
01:05:42It's just about my family
01:05:44Showing them that you can do anything
01:05:46That you can put your mind to
01:05:48If I go
01:05:51A million miles away
01:05:55I'll write a letter
01:06:00Each and every day
01:06:03Cause I need nothing
01:06:06So nothing can ever change
01:06:10Love I have for you
01:06:17Oh, you're the apple of my
01:06:24Cherry pie
01:06:27And all
01:06:29You're cake and ice cream
01:06:32Oh, you're sugar and spice
01:06:38And everything nice
01:06:42You're the girl of my
01:06:44My, my, my, my, my, my dreams
01:06:47But if you want it
01:06:49To leave me
01:06:53Yeah, wrong
01:06:54When you got back, baby
01:06:56I just said
01:06:59Well, come on
01:07:01Cause I need nothing
01:07:03Oh, nothing
01:07:05Can never change this
01:07:08Cause I need nothing
01:07:10That I can change
01:07:15This old love I have
01:07:18For you
01:07:27So, so I'm channeled now
01:07:28All the folks in Montgomery, Tuskegee, Auburn, Union Springs
01:07:33They told me to give you a hug
01:07:34Oh, thank you so much
01:07:35Oh, now, we're proud of you, son
01:07:38Thank you so much
01:07:39You did well, I love that
01:07:40Thank you so much
01:07:41You have a commanding voice
01:07:44But I think my favorite part was your delivery
01:07:47It was completely intentional
01:07:49And it wasn't trying to barrel over the song
01:07:53And show us all your big notes
01:07:55Thank you
01:07:56You were just delivering a story to us
01:07:58And it was very believable
01:08:00Thank you so much
01:08:01It was the first time in three days
01:08:04I've had full body chills the whole time
01:08:07And I thought it was just so real and genuine
01:08:10And I just cheer for you
01:08:12I want to see your family have a blast with all this
01:08:15And, uh
01:08:16Are we going?
01:08:17Is the rest of your family outside this door?
01:08:19They should be
01:08:20We have been waiting on you
01:08:26Come on in, Montgomery
01:08:28This is my brother
01:08:29This is my sister

01:08:31That's my little brother
01:08:32That's my auntie
01:08:33That's my uncle
01:08:34Montgomery's going to be proud
01:08:35I think he came in here to take no prisoners
01:08:38And he just did that
01:08:41It's a yes for me
01:08:43I'm a big-time yes
01:08:44Carrie, what's the note?
01:08:46Little man
01:08:48You think we should all say yes
01:08:49And give him one of these
01:08:50It's a yes
01:08:55It's a yes for me
01:08:56Thank you
01:08:58You're going to Hollywood a week
01:08:59Thank you
01:09:05Thank you
01:09:05Thank you

01:09:28This is hope
01:09:29This is hope
01:09:41We have had the invasion of the Alabamians
01:09:45I'm 17 years old
01:09:46And I'm from Tuscaloosa, Alabama
01:09:47I'm from Huntsville, Alabama

01:16:23so when you moved here did you move to like Los Angeles
01:16:26I moved to Death Valley I work in Death Valley National Park
01:16:30Death Valley yes the hottest place on earth
01:16:33I stretched myself across four states new lands west coast where my dreams lay
01:16:47I've loved music since I was a little girl back home in Puerto Rico I really tried every route
01:16:54every way to be involved in music but I feel like I never quite fit in that industry
01:17:02I just didn't want to give up my dream
01:17:05I started searching on Google jobs with housing USA and this popped up
01:17:14it was so different as of right now I work as a retail associate in the bike shop at Death
01:17:20Valley
01:17:20my job consists of doing reservations being the cashier telling people about all the sites they can go
01:17:29out and explore in the National Park the plan was to save up money and then head to LA and
01:17:35keep pursuing music

01:22:19Yeah, we've heard that song quite a few times now
01:22:23and that was the first time I've heard someone
01:22:25give me the right experience with the song.
01:22:29You just really made that song come alive to me

01:22:38Thank you so much.

01:23:43I'm so excited.
01:23:45Happy.
