Day26: A Microwave Success?


Don't pretend like you don't watch Making The Band. As Dave Chappelle once noted, "OOOHHH, IT'S A BEAST!" And this season has been the most drama-filled season since Diddy first tried his luck at making Da Band. Come on, Diddy gave us classic episodes like when he made the cast of season 2 fetch him some cheesecake. There were some characters on that show, which made it easier to watch rather than purchasing their music. And if you haven't noticed, the only band that's left off this series is Day26. Why? The main reason is the lack of artist development, which makes them a mirowave success. Yes, they're hot for minute. But after their minute and 30 seconds are up, they're still not better than a stove-cooked meal. Let's be honest. Danity Kane's musical chemistry as a group didn't fully develop as a group until their second album, and Day26 still performs like they just met. There's no doubt that some of these groups have talent (I see you D. Woods), but is Diddy taking his time to get to know them as artists? No. Initially, he probably just saw how personaility clashes make great TV.
