James Yokley Jr.
Contestant #10315
James came out and rapped for a short while. Unimpressed, the judges asked him to sing something.
James then proceeded to butcher Lean on Me. Simon responded, "That's why he rapped."
James may have been rapping for 10 years, but he won't be doing it in Hollywood on American Idol.
James is later spotted in the Joy to the World (Jeremiah Was a Bullfrog) montage, where he switches from the proper chorus to the Christmas song "Joy to the World."
