"I watched all the episodes of Oprah's Pop Star Challenge
and loved every minute of it! But even if you missed the show--
this is a great cd for all of us busy moms who are in the car all day. I can't stop singing!"

"Oprah's talent contest did not dissapoint. This CD is well put together with the best songs performed by the most talented singers of the group. Lashell Griffin has a beautiful voice with great vocal range and she can give Whitney a run for her money I believe. But my favorite is Lorenzo Owens...the boy can SING!! I see a bright future ahead for Owens and his lead Temptation soulful voice. The other competitors do well especially Lanesha Baca who is well worth mentioning by name. My only complaint is the song by Joe Herzog.....somehow it just sounds like a bad rendition of a Vince Gill song, not my cup of tea and the only song I skip when given a chance."
Bravo!

"What a great, great CD! And what a great opportunity given to these talented "every-day folks". I can't imagine that many of them will be not sought after hearing the strong, beautiful voices of these artists! I don't know how many of these performers have any background and/or training in voice and music essons, but their voices sound as though they have spent their lifetime in the music/singing business - very trained, talented and beautiful. There is not one single song on this CD that I just did not get chills listening to. I'm pulling for each one to have some kind of a great future in something they obviously love so well!"
An excellent album

"Oprah's Popstar Challenge is like American Idol or Star Academy. The artists of the Popstar Challenge are very talentend. If this album was a challenge, it doesn't shows at all. Everybody sings very well and the album is great. All the family will like it. Older singles will please the parents and will have the kids discover the classics of american music. That is one of the most beautiful album of the year. Every fan of music will appreciate this album. For the fans of Oprah's Popstar Challenge, you can search for American Idol or Star Academie 2004."
