  Speaker 1: Alexai is that Matthew was a part of this as well.
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: And the message that you sent out to families across
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: this nation and around the world was so positive In
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: the way of saying, if you've got dreams, include the babies.
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: Include them into this so they can dream with you.
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Because like I remember when I was little and
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: I used to watch my mom direct the choir. I
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: thought she was the I thought she was a superhero.
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: I thought that was the most amazing thing in the
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: world that anybody could do. And so when I had kids,
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: I seen them. My son loved music just as much
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: as I do. Why wouldn't I incorporate him into my
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: music life? And he's so proud of me, Like he's
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: the most popular kid in school right now. He's so
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: proud of everything that I've going. And now I know
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: that I've broke a barrier in his mind, Like he
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: knows now that you could do anything you want to
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: if you are assistant and you love what you do
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: and you just keep going, he knows that you could

  Speaker 1: I want listeners to go to Spotify, iHeartRadio and even
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: Alexia to listen to your music because you're up there,
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: and I want them to experience it without the NBC
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: thing around you. Because because you were doing this long
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: before you got on national and global TV. And when
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: you feel your soul through that music.
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: Oh my god, Alexia, thank you, thank you man.
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: It's every song that I've ever put out, it has
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: come from something or somewhere. I love singing, and my
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: biggest thing is putting the feeling there. I am a
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: big fan of Donnie Hathaway, Yes and Whitney, and they
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: are storytellers and you can feel every word that comes
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: out of their mouth. So I appreciate you for saying
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: that because that makes you feel really good. It means
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: I'm doing something right.
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: Well, here's the thing. Ever since you were crown Champion,
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: here's what I've been telling everybody around me. And I'm
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: in the public, so I've been saying, we are going
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: into what is going to be the R and B
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: Summer of twenty twenty six. And they kind of looked
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: me and said, you've got to go listen to Alexia
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: and who got into the Rock and Roll Hall of
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: Fame shaw Day. I'm telling you it's going to happen.
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: Oh listen, because I love I think I incorporate a
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: lot of different genres in my voice. I love Recao,
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: love Rocke Roll. I would be elated to be anywhere
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: in any Hall of Fame. So let us pray.
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: How do you stay so calm?
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: Because in this chaotic world that we're in, we're tuning
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: into NBC's the voice to have that escape. And when
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: you come on and you share your presence with us,
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: in my mind, I'm going.
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: How does she do it? How does she stay so calm?
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: You know?
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: Everybody asked me that.
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: I think I've just always had a very calm spirit,
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: Like even when I'm excited, Like my friends laugh at
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: me because I'm like, I'm so excited and they're like
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: are you Are you sure? I've always been super calm.
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: I don't know why, but I am probably the most giddy,
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: goofy person that you will ever meet.
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: But see, that's what I love about being real because
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: isn't that the reason why so many people who listen
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: also tap into your journey because it's like, oh my god,
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: she's one of us.
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: I think, yeah, Because I've been so vulnerable with my
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: supporters about everything that I've been through, you know, throughout
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: my journey. I love that they were able to go
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: through this with me because, like like you said, I've
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: been doing this for quite a while. I started posting,
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: you know, a couple of years ago telling people about
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: my journey, what I've been through and why I keep
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: seeing And so now you know, everybody I see in
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: the comments people are commenting like, y'all don't even understand
• 4:54

• 4:56
  Speaker 2: for people to be proud of me knowing what I
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: I went through and I still persevere. You know, it's
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: a really good feeling.

• 5:14
  Speaker 3: back with Alexia j Ja Why why? Stephen Furdic of
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: Elevation Church always says.
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: Man, when you come across somebody who's the believer, you
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: can feel it, you can see it. And so when
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: I'm sitting there watching you with one and only come on, Alexia,
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: you felt it. You saw it. I could see it
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: in your eyes and your body movement that you were there,
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: but there was a higher power that was there with you.
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: I've been telling everybody that, you know. Right before I
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: got on stage, I prayed a prayer and I was like,
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: I really want to be present for this one and
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: I want to feel I want to feel it too,
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: Like I want to feel it some really bad. I've
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: been singing that song since I was sixteen, and I
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: got to sing it on a big stage and I
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: really wanted to be like present for that and he
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: allowed me to do that. So Yeah, I felt that
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: thing ain't gonna hold you. I felt that thing so loud.
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: That's why I was crying because it's been a long
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: time coming and I didn't know whether I won or
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: whether I lost, But I was so proud of me
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: in that moment because I've been through so much to
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: get here and he in the finale was the best
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: feeling in the world to me.
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: See, And what you proved me by going through the
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: journey that you have is that so many people they
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: like to hit that brick wall and it's like instead
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: of going around it, beneath it, or through it, what
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: they do is they turn around and go back home.
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: And it's like, man, you're proving to us. Don't stop.
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna steal it from Journey, don't stop believing that's
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: my song. Yeah, that's so funny.
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: I love that song. But yeah, like you literally you
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: cannot stop because I feel like when they does, to
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: know that just means it's not your turn. Yet, but
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: that ain't gonna never be your turn. I don't feel
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: like God gives us gifts for no reason, you know.
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: I feel like you're supposed to spread whatever the Lord
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: gives you, and just because it doesn't go your way
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: in that moment, that doesn't mean you get to tell
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: him no.
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: Well, look at what happened to Lazarus. I mean, he
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: went away for four days and the big j guy
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: came in and he says, all right, everything's cool again.
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: And then look at the fame that he's gotten. And
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: he and sometimes people give him the credit for the miracle,
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: it wasn't his miracle.
• 7:32
  Speaker 3: Or or Jove, you know Joe.
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: They tried to get Joe to curse God and he
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: would not do it, and God blessed him with with
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: with way more than what he had in the beginning.
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: And so I come from a from a you know,
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: a Christian background, and so I believe that I believe
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: that you know, as long as you are faithful and
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: as long as you are consistent, as long as you
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: believe that God will do what he said he gonna do,
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: he gonna do it.
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: I gotta die question. I have never been able to
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: keep a secret and yet you kept this a secret
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: and I just talked to you and you probably already
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: knew the answer. I mean I literally sat there and went,
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: you gotta be kidding me. This is we were having
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: a talk.
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it was hard. I'm not gonna hurry you. It
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: was very hard to keep the secret. I think it
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: was harder for my mom. I'm gonna keep the secret.
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: We made it, and I'm just so happy that everybody knows. Now.
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: It was like a big who because now I got
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: to hold it no more.
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: So where do people go to find this?
• 8:37
  Speaker 3: Now?
