I love this guy! I’ve been a fan of his for a while now and I can’t get enough of him! All I have to say really is that heart skips a beat ft. Rizzle kicks is better than the one ft. Chiddy bang.
I know he’s only a newbie in the US but over here in the UK that song was out like… a while ago he has loads of songs now. He’s my fave male musician because he is really cool & the X Factor that year was very intense. I REALLY wanted him to win, it’s a shame he didn’t, but I’m so glad he’s come so far & is now hitting the US to dazzle them with his voice! ~Chantelle.
