I thought this season of MTV’s Making the Band was the best produced so far. The amount of talent Diddy was able to recruit for the show was off the charts. It is truly amazing to see the amount of talent we have in the general public and I’m sure that this show just scratched the surface. Whats even more depressing is that fact that most will NEVER get a record deal or even be heard by a large audience. Its very unfortunate when I listen to some of these terrible performers getting record deals while these truly talented individuals are getting the bad end of the stick.
Back to my actual reason for writing this post. When the season began, I had originally chosen Julius to make the band. His voice was so pure and he seemed to be a very humble person who deserved a shot. When his knee blew out during the dance rehearsal however, I knew his days in the house were numbered.
After Julius and Carlos (two of the four I hoped would make it) were eliminated from the show, I actually felt pretty depressed about it. Unfortunately, accidents and personal issues happen in the middle of things like this, but business is business and producers have no time to wait for these things to be resolved. Thats just the nature of the music industry. I hope for nothing but the best for the two of them in the future.
These are my selections for the band based on my observations. Brian A, Robert, Willie, and Donnie. Yes, I chose the white boy. He has not only proved that he can sing and dance, he has proven to me that he is dedicated to making himself better and has learned to take criticism. He did get into some trouble with Diddy awhile back, but I think he has really taken strides in his goal to get better. As for the other three, I just feel that they have a great mix of voices and they will work well together.
My other considerations: I really dig Q and Big Mike. but at the end of the day, I just don’t think that they are what Diddy is looking for. Q is a great dancer and motivator, but I think the four I chose have an edge on him vocally which will make the difference in the competition. As for Mike, as much as I would like him to succeed, I really can’t see him making the last cut and lose the forty odd pounds Diddy requested him to lose in just those two short months.
Who are your selections for the band? Reasons?
I want to marry Brian Andrews. so my picks are Brain A. Willie, I lovvvvvvvvvve Robert, And Jeremy. Oh and My sister love RO and Jer. Great voice that Mike has.
I was too a julius fan, but did agree with the decision to let him go even though i believe we will see him again. Same picks as you guys except D’angelo HAS to make the band! He is one of the best singers only behind big mike and robert. I too think DIddy will pick 5! You just cant narrow it down to 4. If there were 6 then I say Brain A.
What about Dyshon? He has the look, height, and talent. I like Dyshon and Brian A. I do not care who else makes it.
Dyshon has the looks and the talent. Brian A. is the most talented. Those are my favorites. Do not care about anyone else.
i think all these guys are very talented and they all deserve to be noticed but i love big mike datz my boo and q they really deserve to really be in da band brian h is my baby but its to late he gone!!!!
i am so happy for the Guys that make it,especially Donnie and big Mike,better luck next time for the others but what i can honestly say they all got talent
Well guess what….big mike lost the 40 pounds…made the group with brain A. Qwannel..robert..willie.. yayayay
dyshon looks like he got hit in the face with a shovel baby girl. now, my four man group woulda been Robert (best all around), Donnie (good voice, fan favorite), Willie (also good all around), and Big Mike. Best singers in the house? No. But your tryin to sell records people! Jeremy and Brian H are ill but being guys who were thrown in there in the middle of the show, people didnt warm up to em good and didnt show the same love. Ya digggg? Mike can sing, so diddys gonna take him and throw him on a treadmill 9 hours a day till he looks like willie, thats the truth 100
I’m really happy with the group Diddy picked. glad Mike made it and he proved me wrong about his weight. He fits right in and has one of the best voices. Everyone I choose made it including Donnie even if his was a SOLO act.
Big Mike is the best! I think he proved to not just everyone in Gaffney, but to the United States that is has the talent for what it takes! Im very proud of him
big mike can sing and he really wanted it cuz he lost a lot of waight
