NYC's Hollywood Anderson is a whole lot more than the very first contender on OKP's newest webseries Street DreamsHe's the type of soaring vocal talent that catches eyes and ears no matter where he happens to be showcasing. Recently, he took to the American Idol arena to strut his chops with a tender ballad that damn near brought his judges to balling. Listen, AI isn't exactly our domain, and we don't wanna brag or nothing, but is it too early to say "Told ya so"? Maybe, but if your boy keeps getting the green-light, we won't be the only ones singing his praises. You can watch Hollywood Anderson perform his self-written tune "My Best Friend" for the American Idol panel below, just be sure to keep it locked as we chart his ascent. Oh, and be sure to peep the very first installment of our Street Dreams series down there as well.
