Elliott Yamin by Elliott Yamin

Pros: Elliot's voice is amazing
Cons: The production can be quite boring at times

American Idol is a singing competition. You'll hear Simon, Paula, and Randy remind us of that pretty much every week. But just important as it is to hit your notes and sing on key is the ability to touch people with your singing and performing. If you ...

Pros: Great voice, passion, lots of great love songs
Cons: Some of the material is a bit weak. The writers should be thankful for Yamin.

Remember Elliot Yamin? He’s the one who came in third place on American Idol a couple of years ago behind Katharine McPhee and winner Taylor Hicks. He was my favorite throughout the show so I was very excited when his album finally hit the stores. So ...

Pros: The first three songs are unbelievable.
Cons: A little on the slow side.

I didn't start watching American Idol until just this season (Season 6), so needless to say, when I started snooping around about the show's history, I found myself regretting that I hadn't gotten around to watching a year sooner! Chris Daughtry would ...

Pros: Major improved vocals from Yamin, R&Bish production, catchy chorus.
Cons: Elliott forces his voice on a few songs, a few boring songs.

We ALL remember last year's major shocker on American Idol; Chris Daughtry was booted off over Katherine Mcphee and Taylor Hicks won(bad idea). However, a shadowed gem is turning out to be quite an American Idol at his hometown and worldwide. Elliott ...

Pros: a debut that stayed true to his style, powerhouse vocals, so much potential
Cons: lyrical bumps, still a debut American Idol album, tempo may not be kind

There was a contestant that appeared on season five of American Idol who was absolutely robbed of a rightful place in the final round, which he most assuredly should have won handily. He was a tad unconventional for the show’s standards and tended to ...

Pros: Very strong vocals. Top notch production team.
Cons: Some MOR R&B tracks are here.

American Idol seemingly hit it's 'peak' during the 2005 fifth cycle (or season) of the show. The top 24 was pretty strong while the top 12 was even better. So good was the group that the Top 8 all received some kind of record deal, most with major ...

Pros: A good first attempt by a lesser-known rising Idol star.
Cons: Elliott should have been allowed to "sing like Yamin it."

Season Five of American Idol introduced us to this curly-haired, snaggle-toothed R&B singer from Los Angeles. The Season Five release features his "Moody's Mood for Love" which Judge Simon Cowell thought was too cool for Idol Week 2 of that Idol season, ...

Pros: You could listen to this ENTIRE Cd without thinking twice.
Cons: There should be more pictures in the CD sleeve..

I love Elliott Yamin's debut album that hit stores back in March. I got it the first day it came out. There is only one song on the album that i don't care for that much. It is also the one song that stands out like a sore thumb compared to the rest of ...

Pros: Great music styles!
Cons: None

Let me start by saying, WAY TO GO ELLIOTT! When I heard the single, Wait For You, off of this album, I was blown away. Elliott Yamin was not my favorite contestant on American Idol but I think my mind has changed. I fell in love with it. I bought the CD ...
