Noongar rappers Inkabee and Flewnt have captivated both the judges and audience on America's Got Talent.

Performing their hit single We Dat Good on the latest episode, the father and son duo energised the entire crowd.

From the age of seven, Inkabee has been showcasing his musical talents alongside his acclaimed father.

Their collaborative track, Beat the Odds, showcases their combined efforts in both writing and producing. Their lyrics frequently convey messages of optimism and social engagement, which evidently strike a chord with their supporters.

Initially, the duo appeared to be experiencing some stage fright, but as soon as the beat kicked in, the group transformed into entertainers.

"I was feeling super nervous, but when I got up there it went all away," said Inkabee.

The 11-year-old stole the spotlight with his performance of the verse in the song which went on to be a highlight, proving his talent despite doubts about his age.

"Well, here's something I'd like them to disprove / I'm a transition mutant that's movin' through human suits / Like Benjamin Button, I was born age ninety-seven / It's been eighty-six years and I'ma just turn eleven."

Famous judge, Simone Cowell praised Inkabee, stating that he "had a good feeling" about them while the judges stood up to give them a well-deserved standing ovation.

"I think we have just seen what I call a moment," he said.

"Just the way you performed together it was mesmerising and I think you [Inkabee] are gonna be the face of so many things because you are so cool."

"If I were Nike I would sign him up now," said Cowell.

The duo also left a lasting impression on actress Sophia Vergara.

"I can't believe you are only 11 years old, you were born to do this and you have the coolest dad in the world," she said.

"I think you guys are gonna go far in this competition."

The performance garnered a positive reception, with a member of the audience suggesting that someone should have pressed the "golden buzzer," which would have instantly put them to the live performances. Despite this, they exited the stage with a yes from all four judges.
