But the real magic of the evening came from the surprise performances that left attendees in awe. First to take the stage was new-to-the-scene music artist Tyler Bragoli, being hailed as the next Justin Beiber, kicked off a performance with a cover of Beiber’s Baby, followed by his two original songs L.Y.L.Y.S and Star Baby. Next to follow was WanMor, sons of Boyz II Men's Wanya Morris, who led a heartfelt rendition of Happy Birthday to Josh and also performed a few of their new songs. And the show didn’t stop there—Grammy Award Winning Mya set the room on fire with her soulful melodies and hit songs that had the crowd feeling nostalgic. Jumping on stage for an impromptu performance was the fiery red hot rapper and star of VH1’s Wild N Out Justina Valentine, making the crowd go wild with her new song Mouth Go Crazy.
