The UK-based 19-year-old’s song has close to 900 000 views while covers of Aloe Blacc’s “I Need a Dollar” and “Superstitious” by Stevie Wonder have also received more than 100 000 views the day both songs were posted.

“It all started when I got a guitar at the age of four and has been playing it although I’m still perfecting my play to this day.
“On the other hand I started seriously making compositions last year, writing my own lyrics and performing them,” he said.
