The rap dedicated to Diego Maradona on Got Talent Argentina
“Dedicated to Diego Armando”, Kevin rapped in the first line and then continued: “Whether or not you are the best. That is very clear to me, I still know that you achieved something that few have achieved. At first you made an effort to help your family. It’s a shame that what you cultivated will now only be remembered and it will not be for a goal, nor for a handball, but for the great courage that you have shown on TV.”
Once his presentation was over, the audience and jury did not hesitate to cover with applause the respectful silence that had crossed the facilities until that moment. And there it was again Abel Pintos, now clearly moved, who shared his opinion: “I think you have a lot of talent. And it seems to me that you have already learned the most difficult part of the effort. Then it’s time and work. I congratulate you for everything.”
Florencia Pena, for his part, reflected on the importance of pain in the creative process: “I believe that pain is always the best teacher. It’s hard for it to be like this and you don’t know how important pain is in art. Take that pain, all that pain that you have in your chest, in your belly, and turn it into songs, that will make you a great artist. I congratulate you, I loved what you did.”
Emir Abdul, for his part, felt identified with Kevin’s story and shared his personal experience with bullying: “You’re small. I suffered a lot of bullying. I felt something that you felt and people didn’t understand it and laughed at me. They told me ‘what are you dancing? ‘You’re fat, you’re a whore, how are you going to succeed?’. And today I am living my dream just like you. So take the positive side of everything, because what you did touched me a lot.”
Ultimately, the jury made the unanimous decision for Kevin to advance to the next stage of the program. The Joaquiwith tears in his eyes, sealed the moment with an emotional: “welcome to Got Talentking ”.
