Kodi, who is blind and autistic, amazed the crowd with his flawless cover of Donny Hathaway's "A Song For You."
Kodi's breakthrough moment on the show came when new judge Gabrielle Union used her first-ever golden buzzer to send Kodi straight to the live shows.

But Kodi's journey began well before his appearance on the America’s Got Talent stage. Take a look at the video to learn more about Kodi Lee's intriguing story.

    He doesn't need to win the show, he has won our hearts. That's the most matter.
  • @paulavitt1656
    "He doesn't have a huge following"...well, he does now. Amazing!
  • @lizzychan844
    I love how supportive his family is and also how they treat him like a normal person. They don't treat him like a genius, of course they boast to others about their kid but rightly so, the whole family just seems insanely kind and genuine.
  • When I was in middle school in California, there was this incredible young man in my choir class. He was blind, and he had the most amazing voice, personality and could play the piano amazingly well to boot. He had perfect pitch. I remember the choir teacher would ask him for a note, and he would give it. Perfect every single time. Kodi, I am so so so proud of you. Your talent amazed me then. Finding out what you have accomplished, that you are still being so authentically you, and that you are sharing your incredible talent with the world, it makes my heart absolutely sing. I am so proud of you, Kodi. You are touching the stars dude! You are incredible, and you've made it. I am so honored to have crossed paths with you.

    Kodi's performance was the best performance I've witnessed on AGT. During Kodi's performance, he showed no type of disabilities, he performed much better than a lot of signed artists.
  • I honestly believe he has already won the competition. Kodi is amazing!
  • @JaxNole61
    Kodi is the reason Youtube needs a ❤️ reaction emoji instead of just thumbs up/down!
  • @namitaadur111
    Music is language of soul. And he proved it connecting with entire world. He's an inspiration.
  • @Gwenhwyfar7
    He's going to win. I can't wait to see him shock everyone again when he starts tap dancing!
  • Absolutely. He has raw straight up talent. He's already won it in my opinion.
  • Yes he does hes got more talent than most people they have on their show And a much bigger heart
