One thing about Somizi? He will deliver some of the funniest moments fresh out of the gate.
We "scram", and we "scrome". 🤣 The streets have been chuckling at the comments after Inno's performance. Unfortunately, her take on Mariah Carey's 'Hero' didn't save her.
The audience also caught wind of the fact that JR, one of the show's judges and a seasoned music production heavyweight, has some ink set aside for the signing of this year's winner.
