A homeless man in the United States amazed passersby and shoppers with his incredible voice when he performed John Legend’s “All Of Me” on a street corner. Known as Know Cash, the singer wore a sign that read “Will sang 4 food” and started entertaining passersby. He struck up a conversation with an attractive young lady, who decided to challenge him by placing some money on the line. Little did she know, she was in for a surprise.
As Know Cash began singing the verses of the R&B hit, the young lady’s demeanor changed completely. She was captivated by his powerful and soulful rendition, performed with absolute sincerity. The crowd started to gather, drawn in by Know Cash’s undeniable talent for singing and performing.
