Beasha made her national debut on America’s Got Talent in June of 2019 with a showstopping rendition of Puccini’s classic aria "Nessun Dorma." Catapulting into the national consciousness she went on to receive the Golden Buzzer from Jay Leno for her operatic version of "Caruso.” Quickly becoming a fan-favorite, additional performances included an amazing crossover of Bryan Adams’ "Everything I Do” and “Quello Che Faro" and her finale showstopper, "La Mamma Morta." On the “Finale Results” show the vocal powerhouse performed "Con Te Partiro" with the world-renowned pianist Lang Lang.
“Like much of the country, I was entranced by Emanne following her Golden Buzzer moment on America’s Got Talent,” says Graham Parker, President, Decca Records, US. “Following her through the competition, and meeting her and her family, I see that Emanne is the new voice of America. She has a true love of music and wants to share her beautiful voice with audiences all around the world.
