From a Toddler with a Dream to the Big Stage: The Journey of King Moore

Industry Spotlight

Los Angeles, CA — Before the bright lights of Hollywood and the big stage of America’s Got Talent, there was a little boy with a dream and two parents willing to sacrifice everything to help make it come true.

King Moore, a talented young performer born and raised in Tampa, FL now residing in California, making his national debut on this season of America’s Got Talent, began dreaming big before he could even spell the word “Hollywood.” Born and raised in a loving household led by Verlin and Ivette Moore, King declared at just three years old that he wanted to be an actor, singer, rapper, model, and dancer. But like many parents who’ve experienced the entertainment world’s ups and downs, Verlin hesitated.

“I told him to come back in two years if he still felt the same,” Verlin recalls. “He never forgot.”

True to his word, at age five, King returned and asked again — this time with even more conviction. Ivette, having overheard the original conversation, reminded Verlin of his promise. As a father committed to teaching his sons integrity, he knew what had to come next: it was time to get to work.

From that day forward, the Moore family committed themselves to helping King chase his dream. Ivette left her job to focus full-time on his training. Together, they invested deeply in King’s development — acting classes, vocal coaching, piano lessons, gymnastics, and countless hours in the studio. They traveled from state to state, giving King every opportunity to perform, grow, and be seen.

Much of King’s early inspiration came from watching icons like Michael Jackson, Chris Brown, Bruno Mars, and Justin Bieber on YouTube and TV — dreams sparked by an iPad gifted one Christmas. Those early influences planted seeds that are now beginning to bloom.

Now 9 years old, King Moore has already started building an impressive résumé. He’s had small roles in feature films including Cora Bora, The Wild Robot, and CoComelon (as Cody). His face has graced national commercials for AT&T and Toyota. He’s appeared twice on the Tamron Hall Show (ABC/Disney), as well as the Portia Bruner Show (Fox). He’s toured with stars like That Girl Lay Lay, Kenan Thompson, Young Dylan, and Heiress Harris, and even co-hosted alongside Nick Cannon at the 2025 Honda Battle of the Bands at SoFi Stadium.

King also holds the distinction of being the youngest ambassador for the Black College Expo and the youngest child entertainer invited to the White House under the Biden-Harris administration. There, he spoke on gun violence prevention, reminding the nation: “Kids make up 50% of the population, but we’re 100% of the future.”

Now, one of King’s biggest dreams — performing in front of the world on America’s Got Talent — has come true. The journey is far from over, but it’s a milestone moment for a boy who dared to dream — and the parents who believed in him enough to help make it a reality.

Follow King Moore’s journey as it unfolds on America’s Got Talent this season.

With his distinctive voice and relentless drive, Al Zurii sets himself apart in a crowded industry. “Once we figure out who we are and what our strongest qualities are, we should utilize that to be in a space unimaginable,” he says—and his music proves he’s doing just that.

From Heartbreak to Harmony: Matt Waugh’s Journey Through Music and Connection

Music

After experiencing the emotional turmoil of a breakup, Matt Waugh turned to the MeetMe app not for romance, but simply for conversation and companionship. Lonely and needing someone to talk to, he made it clear he wasn’t looking to play games or flirt—just genuine human connection. On his first day on the app, he met someone who started the same day, and their bond quickly grew into a deep friendship. They supported each other without the pressure of romance, becoming emotional anchors during a vulnerable time.

Born and raised in Hilo on the Big Island of Hawaii, Matt’s love for music has always been a constant in his life. While working as a commercial and residential painter, he would often sing along to music, earphones in, while painting. Though initially surprised by compliments on his voice, he began to believe in his talent and took a leap into music. His songs are deeply personal, often reflecting on failed relationships and emotional challenges, like in his latest track “Downhill.” His lyrics are based on real-life experiences, set to slow-paced melodies that allow listeners to connect with the story behind the music.

Matt describes himself as someone who faces life with gratitude, choosing to focus on the positive and treat everyone with kindness. Faith plays a key role in his mindset, as does creativity—especially through cooking and travel, which help him clear his mind and relax. He’s humble about comparisons to stars like Justin Bieber and Justin Timberlake, but takes pride in knowing his voice has made an impression.

Looking ahead, Matt dreams of continuing to create and perform music, regardless of the size of the audience. He’d also be open to acting—anything that keeps his creative spirit alive. A major milestone is set for May 11, with the release of his song “In the Same Space” on Spotify and Apple Music, a moment that he sees as a dream finally coming to life. With the help of people like Casso from Alpha Kingz Music, Matt is turning his passion into a path forward—one heartfelt lyric at a time.

​Big Menace Tha Artist Drops Raw and Reflective New Single “Subject”

Music

Louisiana native Big Menace Tha Artist is back with a powerful new single titled “Subject,” released under BOSS J ENT and produced by Frost Cash. Originally from Bunkie and now based in Lake Charles, Big Menace has been grinding in the music scene for nearly a decade, and his latest track speaks volumes about his journey. “Subject” digs into the raw emotions that come with being talked about, overlooked, and ultimately envied—all while staying ten toes down. With a standout line like, “First they love you. Then they hate you, then the envy kick in,” the track captures the highs and lows of recognition in both the streets and the industry. It’s a declaration from someone who knows exactly what it feels like to be counted out and still rise above the noise.

Big Menace’s music career has taken him far beyond Louisiana, including major moves in California where he linked up with DJ Flip 808 and recorded in Hollywood. He’s ​collaborated with southern legends like 2Throwed, Big Boom, and Raw Reem. While music is his core, he’s also venturing into acting, working on movies, and expanding his tour circuit to reach new cities. “Subject” is more than just a single—it’s a statement that whether people talk behind his back or ignore his presence, Big Menace remains the focus. This track proves that he’s not just part of the conversation—he is the conversation.
