Making The Band 4-only the best ish on tv right here, right here, right here?



sorry guys but I couldn't find any clips from last nights episode :( boooooo

Saw MTB4 last night and all I gotta say is “MTV can we get a muthaeffin encore?” I mean what is Time Warner sleeping on, this ish should’ve been On Demand like now. Excuse my frustrations but this show is only the best thing on tv right now. These dudes on here don’t have vocals but Vo-Kals!! The pool of talent on this show is insanely wonderful to say the least.
If ya’ll remember on the last MTB w/Danity Kane, they had to add an additional season just to find some more talent because vocally the girls were lacking. I think that may be because of the team of people or lack thereof that Diddy had. On MTB3 it was pretty much Diddy the old vocal coach, Doc (I think we know why he isn’t here this year and can’t we all tell the difference?), and Laurie Ann and few others who showed up every now and again. This year, in addition to Diddy and Laurie Ann, they have super producer/songwriter Bryan Michael Cox (look this dude up if you don’t know about him), Michael Bivens (from New Edition and he discovered Boyz II Men, discovered I say), the new vocal coach whose name escapes me but looks like an older R.Kelly, the A & R guy from Bad Boy, and last but not least Mr. “I-won’t-stop-until-I-hear-ya-mother-scream”, Joe. Of the team, I especially love the vocal coach, he’s that real ish right there! You can tell he’s an OG in that vocal game. He’ll check someone with one sentence and make him sound that much better because of the knowledge he holds.
Watching this season of MTB4 makes me want to see Boyz II Men! I heard they had a show at the House Of Blues out here in L.A. not too long ago. Watching people attempt to sing Wanya’s parts makes me have to give so much props to him. He is soooo underrated! Wanya, now that’s a bad boy right there jack. Not too many “vocalists” in the game right now can touch him. He could kill them all with just one run.
My favorite candidate to make it to the final group is Julius! I fell in love with him from the first episode. That voice is just heaven sent, no other way to describe it. You can’t learn that from anybody, vo-kals. And he’s somewhat of the underdog, and ya gotta root for the underdog. I also like Big Mike, but something tells me that he won’t make it after next week. After the 3 gov’t cheese samaches (I almost had to walk to my kitchen to see if I had stuff to make some b/c that ish looked bomb!) and failure to desire to lose weight, I think it may be a done dadda for him next week. I also like the stocky white guy, Dan. As they said in yesterday’s episode, “that boy never hit a bad note in his life”. Even though the talent in the house was enough to make a solid group, Diddy had to take it to the streets once more. At first, I was like why is he doing this, is it for TV (partly yes) but then I liked when he broke it down to the fellas when he said that while you’re sleeping there will always be someone else around trying to take your spot. I see Diddy had to go deeeeeep, like (Birmingham and Memphis) to find some boys who can sang and I was not mad at him for that. It just made last night’s episode that much better. Can’t remember his name but of the new guys, I like the one with the cornrows, kind of a comical character. He’s the one that R. Kelly, oppps I mean the vocal coach told to stop playing. Of the new guys he’ll last, I hope.
Last night’s episode was crazy and the craziest part about it was when the new guys battled the old guys in the house. This took me back to MTB2 w/ Da Band, when Diddy has Fred go against Chopper at the dinner table, classic. Most of the time when we think battle, we think aggressive raps but it was kinda funny seeing guys go at each other harmonizing and all. Lol Aaaaand when the whole team of “old guys” started singing against the others, I was like what is this, “Westside Story”? Singing “End Of The Road” and “Gone” all hard in anotha brothas face?! Lol I’m laughing now just thinking of it. MTV’s neighbor, BET is premiering their new show, Baldwin Hills, hopefully I’ll have some commentary on that tonight or in the morn. J
