OK, last night Diddy claimed that this upcoming album of his is innovative. Last I checked, in order to be an innovator, you have to do it first. From what I'm hearing so far, Kanye West has already done this with his current project which touches a lot on the electronica tip and uses AutoTune on every tune, which you already know is all T-Pain who Diddy has hung pretty tight with. If you look on YouTube, you will find a few clips of Diddy hanging with T-Pain in the studio and I figured that Diddy was about to jump on the AutoTune train(To Paris). Diddy is just going for an international audience and a new musical demographic since it worked for Kanye. Might be a good thing that he's calling this his last album in case it doesn't go over well.
As far as the eliminations last night, Alex should have been the first one to go. I really think they let him in that house solely for contrast. Just go ahead and give Blake the guitar spot already. Joy did what the track called for, but they chose to call her out for sticking to the script which they stressed when they made the assignment. But hey, they're the judges. I personally didn't see her mess anything up, she just kept it straight, and it wouldn't have fit if she went all out. Now J. Sweet was rather smug last night and it cost him.
I'm kinda seeing that Lynette is not emotionally ready for this despite her talent. She can't walk out on Diddy like she is so quick to do with everybody else. She may get the boot next if she doesn't suck it up and learn to bite her tongue. Most people who mouth off usually wind up shooting themselves in the foot as illustrated by J. Sweet, so just let it ride. They were also kind of wrong for getting on Brockett for sequencing when he was the only board player while every other group had two. Give him the benefit of the doubt. More than likely Brockett is not going to make it to the end because he just doesn't gel on the personality end and I'm pretty sure Diddy wants "cool" people around him for this tour.
Oh, and Group #4 was the best one to me last night even though #1 put it down too. Group #4 nailed the feel of "Take On Me" to a "T" even though it's older than most of them.
Next week should be very interesting now that the singers come in. Jaila is about to show out. I need to do some neck exercises, because I'm sure I'm going to be shaking my head A LOT come next week.
