The Top40 contestants of AmericanIdol traveled to Hawaii with judges Lionel Richie, Luke Bryan, Katy Perry and host Ryan Seacrest to perform in a pre-recorded episode of performances
traveled to Hawaii with judges Lionel Richie, Luke Bryan, Katy Perry and host Ryan Seacrest to perform in a pre-recorded episode of performances. The judges had to narrow the pool down to a Top 20, and the episode has been split into two parts. The second part will air next week. Bobby Bones served as mentor.
DeWayne Crocker Jr. impressed with his original take on “Old Town Road” by Lil Nas X. He showcased artistry and made the song more vocally complex. His runs and arrangement were very strong, and it earned him a place in the Top 20. Richie was worried it was going to be too gimmicky, but he admitted it worked.
Jovin Webb sang “You Are The Best Thing” by Ray Lamontagne and brought a lot of smooth vocals to the table with a touch of grit. “Last night, you did not hit all the notes,” Richie said in his judgement. “But for us, you have a sound that will work for you in this business,” he added. Bryan praised his artistry. Webb did make it into the Top 20.
