So what's the teenager, who suffers from the hereditary disease MPS6, doing next? Releasing an album.

"After four years we're starting to transition out of lip-syncing," he explains. "I wanted to be a singer and I knew it would happen one day, I just didn't know when or how. Artists are willing to [work with me] since they know who I am and they wanna help out."
