Perri wasn't alone in complimenting the teen though. Fredericks' former competition from The Voice also showered him with praise. Rob Taylor who was on Christina Aguilera's team gushed over Fredericks' performance of Perri's song.
@SawyerFrdrx AWESOME job bro! That song is one of my favorites! #VoiceTop5 — Rob Taylor (@ItsRobTaylor) May 12, 2015
Other former Team Xtina contestants such as Lexi Davila and Treeva Gibson shared similar sentiments. Fredericks is responsible for making Davila "fall even more in love with" Perri's song.
