    Got to love his father belief in him. What great father. He saw something no one else did.
    I am also from the Islands and live in Washington. I am happy that he and his family could go home to see thier friends and family.

    Lionel : Find a big act to open for
    Iam : But I am already the big act
    Lionel : Can I please open for you ?

      "Haha, Lionel! With your incredible talent, you could definitely steal the show as my opening act! Let's make it a memorable night of superstar performances together!"

      ​Lol, 😂Every "big act" will be afraid to have Iam as their opening act because the public will ask Iam, please one more song, one more song. And the opening act becomes the main act, 😎😎
