You’d think that 23-year-old pop star Conan Gray, who has more than 21 million daily fans on Spotify, would be able to sing the Star-Spangled Banner well.

Gray’s take of the national anthem was “impossibly bad,” according to baseball fans who heard it at a Home Run Derby on Monday in Los Angeles.

People are saying that the young pop artist sang “the worst national anthem in the history of the United States.” He was singing the song at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles to start the Home Run Derby.

After he sang his version of the national anthem, many people on Twitter and Instagram made fun of him and said he did a terrible job in front of so many people.

One Twitter user made a joke about “a Congressional Committee that looks into who chose the singer for the National Anthem at the Home Run Derby,” while another person said, “There are so many great singers in this country, it’s almost impossible to have a national anthem that bad.”

Someone wrote after seeing Conan Gray sing the national anthem at the Home Run Derby on Monday in Los Angeles, “I don’t know who TF Conan Gray is, but that was one of the five worst national anthem performances I’ve ever heard.”

A fourth person asked, “1.) Who is Conan Gray? 2.) He might be the worst singer of the national anthem ever. Good heavens!”

Gray is from Texas, which is where he became famous by putting videos of himself on YouTube. Since then, he has built up a large fan base on Spotify. Millions of people listen to him every month because they love what he does. Superache, his second record, came out in June of this year and was praised by both reviewers and fans.

Both in the United States and in the United Kingdom, his record was in the top ten of the charts.

But Gray’s version of “The Star-Spangled Banner” will be remembered as one of the worst versions of the American national anthem ever. Some people even said that his singing wasn’t as good as Fergie’s, who sang the national anthem at the 2018 NBA All-Star Game.

“Bro, I don’t think Conan Gray can hear the music. Someone else posted, “That national anthem was just as bad as Fergie’s.”

Even though Gray was being criticized, his friends supported him online.
One fan wrote on YouTube, “He really is a great performer and singer.” “I don’t know what happened, but it stinks to see people pick on him.”

Another person said, “Go listen to his album or literally any other live performance before you try to tell me this man can’t sing.”
