Grenadians stand up! History has been made!
Jeverson Ramirez went and did the damn thing! This Grenadian singer took his vocals and flexed them on one of music’s biggest stages, the American Idol stage and with his audition performance, he’s landed himself a ticket to Hollywood! The episode which aired on Sunday night showed him ever so briefly in all his audition glory and of course, in his element as he performed in front of judges including Pop sensation Katy Perry and Hello crooner, Lionel Richie!
Although many Grenadians felt he was robbed of screen time, the “Somethin’ In The Water” artiste let his voice do the opportunity justice. So on Sunday night, representing with his Grenadian flag on stage, he put on a performance that was waited upon all day by Grenadians both in the tri-island state and abroad to be viewed.
Caribbean Entertainment Hub wishes the most hype of CONGRATULATIONS to Jeverson for this historic and quite impressive accomplishment! Up next? Hollywood!
