When 13-year-old\u00a0Patches<\/b>\u00a0stepped onto the\u00a0America\u2019s Got Talent<\/i>\u00a0stage wearing a neat button-down shirt, blazer, and khakis, the audience and judges expected a polite classical performance or perhaps a quiet piano piece.<\/p>\n

Hailing from Portsmouth, New Hampshire, Patches introduced himself with charming modesty. When judge Simon Cowell asked what he would do if he won the grand prize of one million dollars, the teenager didn\u2019t hesitate: he just wanted to buy tickets to see\u00a0Hamilton<\/i>\u00a0on Broadway. He then announced he would be performing an original song he wrote himself about\u00a0\u201cthe essence of performing.\u201d<\/i><\/p>\n

From Polished Schoolboy to Fire-Spitting Rapper<\/h2>\n

The moment the beat dropped, all expectations were completely shattered. Patches transformed from a mild-mannered 13-year-old into a rapid-fire rapper with staggering flow and unmatched stage presence.<\/p>\n

Dropping clever wordplay, hilarious punchlines, and rhythmically complex bars, he directly name-dropped judges Simon Cowell, Heidi Klum, Howie Mandel, and Mel B right in his opening lines. By the time he hit his chorus, the entire auditorium erupted, with all four judges standing up in absolute disbelief and delight.<\/p>\n
