Whenever I hear people call this bunch the best Idol group overall, it makes me feel good about Haley's chances for success because I believe she was the best of all.

Quote:Peak Records was originally established in 1994 as a joint venture with GRP Records by Andi Howard and Russ Freeman, leader of the popular contemporary jazz group, The Rippingtons. In 1997 the label associated with Windham Hill/BMG Records, where they started a contemporary jazz/urban AC division.

This was followed by Peak's highly successful tenure with the Concord Music Group for ten years, with Andi Howard as label president. Named the #1 Independent Contemporary Jazz Label by Billboard Magazine, Peak was known as the "A" list of the contemporary jazz and urban music genres. In April of 2011, Peak formed a new partnership with Eone Entertainment Group and with Howard continuing at the helm, the label expands into crossover musical genres covering pop, urban and contemporary jazz.

Good for Naima. She was my early favorite but when she left I started honing in on Haley. They are both talented but as far as vocal chops Haley wins hands down.

I hope Naima finds her niche, she deserves it.

Congratulations Naima!

What about Jacob Lusk? What's up with him? I know he is very undisciplined, but nevertheless I believe he is still worthy of a record deal.

I could see Thia getting some sort of record deal in the future when she gets a little older. In the meantime, she should focus on trying to get an acting gig to stay in the limelight.

As for Paul, I think he has a wonderful personality, but I'm not a fan of his voice at all. However, I could see him becoming a song writer/record producer in the future.

I could see Naima starring on Broadway, and I could see her as a model as well, as she has beautiful eyes. But hey if she can make it as a R&B singer, then more power to her.

So there are only three left out of the 11? I don't think season 11 can be topped. I remember hearing at the start of season 11 that the judges said that they haven't seen so much potential and so much talent. So we all know that Scotty McCreary's new album went platinum, and probably has the potential to go multiplatinum. Congratulations to all the contestants that got there dreams fulfilled. I still think season 11 is the pinnacle, and that kind of recognition with all the contestants getting a record deal cannot be duplicated. But wait it's not over it a few more weeks Haley will be releasing her new single and then right after that her new album let's hope she reached gold status and eventually platinum. I'm in a very advanced stage of anticipation. And anticipation is making me wait. (Carly Simon).
