Greyson Chance a 13 year old kid whose, single Waiting outside the Lines has barely made its debut the little guy is already making quite noise with his voice. Chance has drawn the attention of the critics and other musicians alike and people have already started comparing to Justin Bieber and Willow Smith.
But in reality it is better to compare Chance with Justin rather than the little Smith. On Tuesday the 13 year old, debuted the single on The Ellen DeGeneres Show on Tuesday. Just like Justin was discovered by Scooter Braun from the YouTube, Chance caught the eyes of Ellen DeGeneres and was signed to her record label.
After hearing what Lady Gaga fan has to offer, it can be easily said that he is another original like Bieber and on the other hand Willow Smith is not a copy of other young pop-artist but she seems to be the miniature version of Rihanna and Beyonce who is much more into the techno pop-culture grind machine than the actual artistry.
But it would be improper to jump to a conclusion about either Chance or Smith as both are starting their career and a fair chance should be given to them before judging them. At the moment going by their first releases, Greyson and Willow has developed a style of their own and both have worked on separate genres. Chance is not dishing out another dance-sugary-pop routine but has a big voice for a kid.
One needs to wait and see whether all these three, Justin, Willow and Greyson can hold on to their steam for long enough to be the next big thing, or with time just fizz away. Going by the track record, the 16yar old Bieber just seems to be doing fine.
