American Idol

I haven’t watched this show in years but the other night I was channel surfing and stopped when I heard this girl sing on American Idol. Her name is We Ani and she’s from Harlem NY. Her speaking voice sounds like Minnie Mouse, reminding me of Macy Gray but when she sings the transformation is magical. The girl can ‘sang’. She has a beautiful tone, range and versatility in song genres. I wish her luck in winning on this show because they have a habit of eliminating true talent. Let’s hope someone signs and creates a career for her like Jennifer Hudson.

BREAKING NEWS: They eliminated her when it was left to the last three finalist. Twitter was in an uproar saying she was robbed, and I agree. They may have done her a favor. She won’t have to commit to some limited contract American Idol will tie her to and instead be a free agent to be picked up by a record label that values true talent.

Alicia Keys audiobook

I just finished Alicia keys audio book. It was insightful and she is extremely spiritual. Her book is written like a novel and she is the narrator with cameo appearances of famous people like Oprah and Ms Obama. The only thing I didn’t like was that she sings acapella throughout and it made me cringe.
