They all are talented in their own right. I refuse to dis-credit and of them. But, I think Moy is gonna take it. It kind of reminds me of Ruben and the other guy off American Idol. I think the marketability of the person is what's gonna get them over the top. And let's face it, Justin doesn't have more overall talent then Moy. He's good, but people look for marketability. Example, Ashanti. She's not a dynamic singer; but she's marketable!!!!
ALLYSON ALL THE WAY! the most versatile, lots of training... yes, best on Broadway, but what is wrong with that? This is not a pop show- it's about a triple threat real talent... Singing, DANCING... and star quality and she has it all!! YOU GO GIRL!!! and she's original, not a clone of Eminem,Eve, or Britney....
Next is Brandon- awesome! you can keep the rest INCLUDING Harlemm because he's good, but they will NEVER give it to him because he lied, besides he pretty much does the same thing every week-
YOU GO ALLYSON AND EVERYONE IN HERE IN NYC LOVES YOU!!!!!
Thanks Fou! - I knew we'd eventually end up on the same page!
Dancin' only- and sangin' only- ain't 3X, only!!!
I see Brandon as one of the few with listen-ability. He's so smooth and so young and maleable - he would really grow alot with this opportunity.
I think Serena and Harlemm are the most consistant and have alot of talent but I COULD NOT, WOULD NOT buy a CD of their vocals and don't think they would improve much with the contract offerings.
Sorry! It isn't all about the riffs, even though I am one of the first to admit I get sucked in by them....
Shannon - I'm on the fence about her... I can tell she can sing and she's adorable - but do we really need another Britney?
Hmmmm....

I've seen what the industry can do with talent once they give them a song suitable for them. In American Idol, some of the songs the contestants chose weren't suitable for their voices. I wasn't sure what Clay could do singing everyone else's songs either, until I heard his song on the radio the other day. It was the first time I've heard it on the radio, and it was even being played by a station that doesn't normally play that kind of song.
I don't know if it's an original or a remake, but the words had something like.. lift me up, hold my hand...??? not sure.
It gave me chills to hear it and it suited him. I watched him go from regular guy nerdy type, into very handsome. That's an example of finding talent and adjusting to a style suitable for your voice.
With Shannon, even though she's immitating Britney for now, what would the reaction be if she is given an original that's suitable for her voice? I can understand a singer/dancer immitating someone else during the early stages of their career, and while trying to find a style of their own.
What she may need is someone who can take her talent and help her find her own style, just like they did with Clay and Kelly. Not sure about Rueben because I haven't heard anything by him since the show ended.
These contestants may be immitators now, but hopefully they will break out into their own, with or without industry help.
I will admit though, Harlemm has already broke out into his own style, but I don't think it's something I could listen to, or watch beyond this show.
That is so kool to know Moy! I know Justin (JJ). He has been like one of my best friends for 7 years. You're right, Debbie would keep him around it he was telentless. So yall quit dissin Justin and Moy!
