Greyson Chance Performs Empire State of Mind on Billboard’s Mashup Mondays

Greyson Chance kicked off the 2011 season of Billboard.com’s Mashup Mondays. 

Last year Billboard had fun with the likes of Sara Bareiles taking on Beyonce and Matisyahu beat boxing Kings of Leon so they knew they had to do it big to start of 2011.  Who better to pick then Greyson Chance?

Greyson Chance chose to perform one of his favorite covers of all time, Alicia Keys and Jay Z’s “Empire State of Mind”.

“I picked ‘Empire State of Mind’ because its obviously out of my element” said Greyson.

This is absolutely (in our opinion) the best cover of Empire State of Mind we’ve ever seen.  We were in awe after watching it.  The sound quality is out of this world!

Greyson Chance’s interview with Metro Family Magazine can be found in its entirety below courtesy of MetroFamilyMagazine.com.

MFM: How did you become interested in music and the performing arts? Who were some of your biggest influences?
Greyson: I’ve been singing as long as I can remember and I started playing piano when I was around eight years old. I really started to explore different artists and styles of music a few years later. Some of my earliest musical influences were The Beatles and Journey.

MFM: How did your parents encourage your interest and talents? How did they help you to achieve your goals?
Greyson: Both of my parents are very supportive of me. My mother has always been really into music and theater—she‘s always given me advice about how to be a better performer.

MFM: What has life been like with the successes and opportunities that you have had? How do you feel like your life compares to that of other teenagers?
Greyson: It’s been great! I’m so excited to be able to live out my dream. My life is different than other teenagers because I do school online and I’m constantly traveling, but in many ways it hasn’t changed—if I get in trouble, my parents take away my phone or computer!

MFM: What is the best and most memorable experience you have had since your rise to fame? What has been most difficult?
Greyson: Going into the studio and creating music is the most incredible experience. I’m very lucky to be able to do it. It’s been hard getting used to constantly being away from my friends and family.

MFM: What do you see as the most important thing that the arts can offer for someone your age?
Greyson: Music for me has always been a way to express how I feel, I think it’s great for someone my age to have some sort of creative outlet.

MFM: What advice do you have for other kids who are interested in trying to make their mark in music and the performing arts?
Greyson: Keep on following your dreams and don’t let anyone put you down or tell you that you can’t do it!
