I just saw him singing " Benny and the Jets" during an Elton John tribute ( 2024).. never heard of him...next just viewed this old American Idol video with him singing one of my as all time favorite songs: "You're All I need To Get By"..and he is right up there with the Marvin/ Tammi and Aretha( sp) versions...Superb!..I am a fan!👍
Jacob was born to rule the world EXACTLY the way he did 2 weeks ago for Elton John and Bernie Taupin at their Gershwin Award Ceremony. NO ONE can "own a room" the way this budding Super Star does! no one.
Calling on Luther Van Dross and Sylvester-in the house of Gospel. . . this young gospel sing is following in the footsteps of the aforementioned singers. Wonderful!
One of the greatest performances in Idol history and a contestant that often gets overlooked today. Has an amazing voice and I really hope he continues to make it big.
I can't stop rewinding this Jacob - baby boy you sang the ham fat out of this song, I don't know you but I felt the pride of yo nana watching you perform!!!! You go baby, ALL THE WAY!!!
only got into American Idol for 2 seasons, this one and Joshua Ledet was in. This was a powerful season with so much talent. Scotty McCreepy even went big afterward . this performance = flaaawless.
This young man is awesome, and I'll have to say this was my favorite preformace of his yet. He just had fun with it and let his natural talent take over. Outstanding!!!!!
God forgive all you haters comments on this site. Whateva Jacobs sexual orientation, he can sang his off off. Wishing you the best on your journey Jacob because you are going to the top. Forget your loss on American Idol and keep it moving. It wasn't for you. It was not in God's plan. He has something bigger and better in store for you. Jus keep singing. You give me chills the way you nail those songs.
EXCELLENT performance. Wow, just love it. Let's remeber its a singing competition all that matters is the voice and performance and JACOB is the bomb. Great job, keep it up
I am so disappointed that Jacob does not have an album out. I gotta wonder if it's ever going to happen. His voice is unbelievable, I also just watched his God Bless the Child and it's still amazing to listen to.
@@seancummins9559 yes, with the band the 'gabriels'. They came Dec.2021 to the French TV show ''taratata'' with "Love And Hate In A Different Time" and the 3 explained there (cf. the backstage videos of its YT channel) how they came to form the band... The French audiences loved him, loved them. To make sure of their love and devotion, he nonetheless "Put A Spell On (Them)". Direct mercyless, let me tell ya! 'Twas Jacob's first time in France/Taratata and he was so delightfully excited about it !
Regardless of anyone sexuality, that is not what this contest is about! Great job Jacob!!! God Bless you and you keep doing what you are doing!!! Peace and Blessings!
That performance was a ten out of ten. As long as Jacob sticks to what he does best which is tracks in the style of Motown and Luther Vandross, he will be a successful solo artist.
I love to watch this one over and over again. When he finished I felt cheated like there was more for him to sing. When he sing I always hAte when its over.
Goosebumps, hairbumps, speedbumps... all that ISHT! Both my husband and I thought he sang this song even better than Marvin Gaye and that is saying alot! Both of us being musicians, we were absolutely floored by his performance GO JACOB! Real singing returns!!!!!
This is the best Performance this Season American Idol Alumni know good music Scotty and Alaina have to go Hayley James and Jacob should be in the Top three to get the best finale Ever

I love his Granny's reaction. Like she's in church and full if the Holy Ghost!! :-)
he chose not to sell his soul.. good for you Jacob. God is good.
He actually sang Aretha's Version of this song. Like her very SOULFUL!!
American Idol has had manyyy great soul singers... but Jacob sings straight to my soul!

The haters could probably indulging in what they say they hate
can't stop pressing replay
American Idol is not a personality competition; It is a singing competition, and he is the best singer out there period.
Sooooooo clean 11/10 vocals.
Absolutely one of the greatest I have EVER heard. Love the Motown (the best of the best).
I just got chills❤❤❤❤❤❤
STILL gives me chills!!!!
It's a blessing to hear Jacob sing. His voice is heaven sent.
OMG!!! This has to be one of my favorite performances!!!! GREAT JOB JACOB!!!
You would be an absolutely fabulous drag queen!!!!
Best American Idol Performance Ever
He's such a badass he killed it and I was so mad when he didn't win this season but he's still one of my favorite idols ever
Good is Good-
Oh man, he’s gooooood!
Fantastic to see him with Elton John at Glastonbury on the main stage where he's always belonged.
Most talented male vocalist I've ever heard.
That is how you bring down the house folks. That's how its done.
EXCELLENT performance. Wow, just love it. Let's remeber its a singing competition all that matters is the voice and performance and JACOB is the bomb. Great job, keep it up
I get chills listening to him sing! I love the mixture of low and high vocals.
There is nothing he can't do i hope he wins
If you like Jacob give my a thumbs up
"Baby Luther!" - Said Steven Tyler of Jacob Lusk 2011...💞
OMG! What a flawless performance. Made me shiver.
All of these contestants can sing but Jacob is on a different planet!!!!!!
I am so disappointed that Jacob does not have an album out. I gotta wonder if it's ever going to happen. His voice is unbelievable, I also just watched his God Bless the Child and it's still amazing to listen to.
He does now :)
