    This is not just a performance of reciting poetry, but dramatic theatre at its best! Obviously may not be best for a Las Vegas show. However, he could easily assemble a one man show for Broadway and win awards for drama such as the Pulitizer Prize!

    • @DSonneborn
      @DSonneborn 3 ปีที่แล้ว +33

      I respectfully disagree with your opinion of his performance being a Vegas act. After his performance last week I told my girlfriend that his show could be set up like church. Where he comes out says a poem or 2 and then a gospel group comes behind him and plays a song. For instance with this piece imagine when he finishes his final word, and steps into the darkness and then Resound does a gospel rendition of Cats In the Cradle. I could absolutely see myself in Vegas watching that.

    We keep hearing that part, "all of the issues we are having right now is due to the fact that there are so many who are Fatherless"...some have fathers right in their home and still feel their absence. This man's words spoke volumes. FORGIVENESS is the key.. whether we have a physical Father or not..we still have a Spititual Father who loves unconditionally!

    Brandon you have definitely introduced a whole new game to AGT of powerful messages in words of poetry. Its always been around but never taken so seriously in competitions that go viral like AGT. You have me in awe after every single dang performance, with chills and or tears coming down my face. Keep at it. Dont ever stop. Huge fan always.

    I haven’t followed the show but I watched the video of his audition. I’m glad he’s been voted through. Amazing talent, but more than that for sure. Not quite sure what the “more” is, but it is there and I’m glad Brandon is willing to share.

    Brilliant and beautiful! You told a story full of hope, then pain and hurt, and ultimately forgiveness! Loved the fluidity, and you’re portrayal of raw emotion! But the best part of all: “...at the altar of Christ.” You found forgiveness for your earthly father because of the forgiveness of your Heavenly Father! I love that message! Keep doing what you’re doing!

    Brandon, you captivate your audience. We hold on tightly to each word wanting more but at the same time yearning for it to end to hear the epic mind blowing finale that makes us sit back in awe of what we just heard. You have the ability to put into words what most people can only scream out or self- medicate out or block out. Thank you!
