“It feels like at any moment someone’s gonna pinch me and I’ll just be rapping in my own bedroom. It really feels very, very special. I feel incredibly grateful to be performing in the Final. Sorry, Finale. Gotta make it sound as fancy as it is. Finale. Finals don’t have a million dollars at stake. Finales do,” observed finalist Chris Turner as he prepared for his last improvised rap.

Fellow finalist and rapper Mama Duke perfectly summarized her journey this season, saying, “This is crazy. It’s been a circus. It’s like, from the Auditions, four Yeses from Simon, Sofía, Mel B, Howie, to be charting, to go to Quarterfinals, to get a Golden Buzzer from Scary Spice! Mel B! To be here, rap music is here, we did it, we did it already, you know?”
Another of the most heartwarming stories from the season is that of singer Jessica Sanchez, who actually competed in the very first season of AGT when she was just a kid. Now married with her first baby on the way, she returned and made it all the way to the Finals. Though with her due date fast approaching, it’s been wild to see her balance impending motherhood with the demands of the show — and pull it off spectacularly!
