      It's like Black people are not meant to enter into opera as though it's exclusively a caucasian genre that he just obliterated by this astoundingly, spectacular second to none performance whilst he's not overweight like many are, respect, Bruno was the only one who was in recognition and awe of his talent, no golden buzzer underlines the racist expectation that opera is an exclusive genre for non-whites. They say he's the best opera singer in 17 years on the show ever and no golden buzzer, speaks volumes and it has to be nothing else other than racism, sadly!.

      A golden buzzer shoots you through to the semi-finals without having to work so hard and showers the performance with a bunch of golden confetti.
      It signifies approval, but takes a lot away from the audiences around the world. That's about it. There may be attention received from those willing to help him outside, but Innocent doesn't need that. It is like a pinata with no guarantees of anything.

      Just for interest: that shirt style is very common in SA, and the patterns are usually very distinct (sort of like quilting). When I saw the shirt, and the name "Innocent" I KNEW he was South African. It's quite common to have people called: Consistency, Policy, Office, Blessing, Gift, Trouble, etc. The names reflect the past, and show the future.

    His story of how he was 'Discovered and helped ' by a Capetown lady, I'f memory serves me right, is just as amazing. Proofs how one person can change history. May God bless her.

    I'm honestly lost for words right now because I can't even explain how phenomenal this guy was. I don't think anyone was expecting that much power from his voice to come out and we've just found a ordinary guy turning into a diamond right in front of our eyes, This guy seriously was worthy of getting the golden buzzer and I'm betting my money right now on saying we are going to be seeing Innocent Masuku in the final of Brian's Got Talent 2024 without a doubt
