11-Year-Old Boy Sings His Heart Out To Adele’s Hit “Hello”

You can find countless covers of Adele’s songs on YouTube, many of them impressive in their own right. But every once in a while, one stands out—so powerful that it tugs at your heart.

This cover of “Hello” is one of those rare performances, not by a seasoned singer or even a teen with a lot of emotions to express, but by an eleven-year-old boy whose voice brings something unexpected and deeply moving to the song.

An 11-year-old named Tryzdin Grubbs from Columbus, Ohio, took the internet by storm with his breathtaking rendition of Adele’s “Hello,” stunning everyone who heard it. Despite enduring bullying and mental health struggles, Tryzdin’s emotion poured into every note of his performance.

Dressed in a simple sports jersey, his youthful appearance contrasted sharply with the intensity and depth of his voice, which belied his age. His incredible ability to channel his pain into music quickly earned him 5.6 million views.

People around the world showered the video with positive feedback, praising the boy’s talent. One commented, “Unbelievable. This kid has no idea how naturally talented he is. He absolutely killed that! Whew. Crazy talent. That melisma towards the end is ridiculous!”

Another continued, “I know It shouldn’t matter, but to sing such a beautiful song with his beautiful voice in front of all those people but also what looks to be majority male people, is brave and absolutely heartwarming to see him have so much love and support.”
