Velvety Voiced Homeless Man Lands Viral Fame

A video detailing his story of recovery and redemption -- and demonstrating his impeccable, almost predestined radio voice -- has garnered over 5 million views in two days. (Check it out after the break.) Williams now reportedly faces an inundation of real and lucrative business propositions, including a $10,000 ad contract, a telethon appearance and even rumors of a potential deal with the Cleveland Cavaliers. The immediate star now reportedly has an agent, Al Battle, and could transition his love for radio into a full-time gig.
So, farewell, Basil and Rainbow Guy. While your glory may be fleeting, Williams looks like one viral star who may actually extend his 15 minutes of Web fame.

Absolutely amazing voice, and it's SO awesome he is now going to get work! From homeless to being swamped with big money offers, all cause of a guy who posted a Youtube video. Absolutely amazing the profound effect one can have on another.
