North Shore brothers Nyjah Music and Zyah Rhythm will audition on America’s Got Talent Season 21 in an episode airing Tuesday, June 9 at 2 p.m. HST on NBC.
The pair arrive on the show with a measurable audience: they have more than 250,000 monthly listeners on Spotify and their 2025 cover of Elvis Presley’s “Burning Love,” produced by their uncle, has more than 12 million streams. America’s Got Talent offers a $1 million grand prize and is broadcast in more than 20 countries with millions of followers across social platforms, giving the brothers national and international exposure if they advance.
This season’s judging panel is Howie Mandel, Melanie Brown, Simon Cowell and Sofía Vergara. Season 21 adds a new callbacks round: select acts that impress in initial auditions will perform a second time before judges pick which groups move on to the live shows. For Nyjah Music and Zyah Rhythm, a strong audition on June 9 could mean a second appearance under the callbacks format.
The brothers are already tied to a high-profile music family: they are nephews of Bruno Mars. Their cover of “Burning Love” was produced by their uncle and placed in Disney’s live-action Lilo & Stitch, a credit that helped push the track past 12 million Spotify streams and raise their profile ahead of the television audition.
On social media the duo wrote, “Every stage is an opportunity to share our passion, learn and grow.” They have not been reached for comment about the America’s Got Talent audition itself.
The program telecast on June 9 is the immediate moment for viewers who want to see what the brothers perform and how the judges react; those outcomes are not yet available. If the judges send them to callbacks, the brothers would return for a second performance in front of the panel before any decision about the live shows is made.
What comes next on the music side is already scheduled: Nyjah Music and Zyah Rhythm plan to release a new song, “Waste No Time,” on June 12. Fans who tune to the June 9 episode on NBC will learn whether the brothers advance toward the live rounds, and listeners can judge the audition’s momentum against the new single when it arrives three days later.
