He may be only 12 years old, but his voice is mighty. Angel takes the judges and audience by storm with his powerful vocals. He gets a standing ovation from the crowd!
2. His dad inspires him to sing. Judge Howie Mandel asks Angel what inspires him to sing, and the 12-year-old singer replies: “It’s mostly my dad.” Both Angel’s dad and mom watch their son perform from backstage with host Tyra Banks!
3. He was reportedly on another reality show before America’s Got Talent!

4. His audition already has over 1 million views! NBC “leaked” Angel’s audition ahead of the July 10 episode. In just 4 days, his performance has become one of the most-watched auditions of season 13 — and it hasn’t even aired on NBC yet! The performance speaks for itself. Angel is just that good.
5. He could get the Golden Buzzer! With this being the final auditions, judge Heidi Klum still has to use her Golden Buzzer. Angel has a chance to move directly to the live shows!
