D.Smooth was about to take the stage at the Season 21 Blind Auditions when the teams filled up. Looking back, he's grateful he didn't get a chance to perform at a time when he wasn't giving 100% to music. D.Smooth grew up in the rural countryside of Birmingham, Alabama and his entire extended family all lived on the same street. He feels blessed that his family was close by to keep him grounded. In high school, D.Smooth was a singer in the jazz band, but even though he loved music, his main focus was sports. He played football, baseball, and basketball. He would often sing the national anthem and then run to the field to play a game. Now that he's back at The Voice, he's ready to give music his all.
