Mandisa Hundley from american idol season 5, next to elliott yamin and chris daughtry, probably has the best album out, eclipsing taylor, katharine, kelly, bucky and paris in terms of quality... 
it is unbridled gospel music for the 21st century... lovin' it right now...
drake bell's It's Only Time is pretty good as well, especially the acoustic version of Found A Way from previous album Telegraph...
and the MTV Asia Hip Hop countdown on weekends is really useful in summarizing what's shaking up the r&b/hiphop scene for the week... i recommend Amerie, Mario and Ne-Yo's singles... 
and topping the iTunes chart for the past week or so is Sean Kingston, and his two singles in the top 10 are really raggae/r&b in terms of feel, good for a casual listen...
Mr World 2007's winner, Spain, is a pretty good judges' choice, but the pageant had alot of better contestants in my opinion, in particular Australia (it was a evidently a slow morning, and i was flipping between this and J.Lo's Dancelife on MTV, which is shaping up to be Making The Band meets 8th & Ocean, a pretty cool concept)

class outing tomorrow..

unrestrained,
John.
