Will he have a long career in singing in some form or another? No question. Will he make tons of money at it and be hugely marketable? Time will tell. I think he needs some coaching and life experience. He's only 17 and very naive of the ways of the world. He also struggles with simple interview questions from Ryan Seacrest. The media will eat him alive unless he gets some folks and fast. And I'm not talking about his parents, especially his father who seems way too driven to turn his kid into a cash cow.
You're absolutely correct about his lack of maturity; win or lose he's going to need a lot of work. But that's the beauty of only being 17, he's got plenty of time to learn and improve. I can't even remember the person I was at 17, and all the things that have happened in my life since and all the changes I've gone through. As for some of the other contestants from this season that I'll be curious to see how well they do in the future, are Brooke White and Ramiele Malubay. I think both are extremely talented but both kind of succumbed to the pressure of the show. I wouldn't be surprised to see Brooke White release an album in the very near future. I'm not quite sure when, but I'm sure we'll be seeing Ramiele's name surfacing as well. She's the one who may end up doing some shows on the Disney channel or even doing something on broadway.
