He's baaaaaack! Yes, Diddy (well, his team) is on the road in search of the next big boy band. If you've got the look, the moves and the voice, this just might be your big break. (Sorry, rappers need not apply.) Something tells me this season is going to be the best yet. With the demise of B2K, and groups like Pretty Ricky holding down the male-R&B group category, there's clearly a void that needs to be filled. Jagged Edge just got resigned to JD's label, but we have a feeling that a group of young, hungry, fresh talents will take over if given the opportunity and a clear-enough minds to handle the success (unlike Dy-lan & Fred).Diddy has lined up a pretty impressive cast of judges including: recording artist - Joe, New Edition's - Michael Bivins, choreographer - Laurie Ann Gibson, and producer - Bryan Cox.
If you're at least 18, and you have the skills to pay the bills, get ready by preparing the following songs for the A cappella audition:
It's So Hard to Say Goodbye to Yesterday" - Boyz II Men
If I Ever Fall in Love" - Shai ( Never gets old!)
End of the Road" - Boyz II Men
On Bended Knee" - Boyz II Men
Gone" - N'Sync
Peaches N Cream" - 112
