After receiving the golden buzzer from judge Howie Mandel, he made his way to the final and was crowned the winner of the 15th series.
He was the first spoken word poet to appear on the TV talent show, and left the audience lurching when he performed a poem about the death of his sister in the first audition.
The victory saw him receive $1 Million, a Kia Stinger, and a spot on the bill at Luxor Las Vegas.

Prior to the showing of his CW father’s day special, Leake released a second collection of poems, entitled Unraveling: Poems, in February 2022.
Alongside his wife, with whom Leake shares one daughter, he works as a teacher at Brookside School Daycare Center.
The family remain based in Stockton, where Leake was raised and centres much of his philanthropy.
