The jury is still out on Jasmine Murray's chart potential. If she happens to have a phenomenal chart performance, that will be a classic example of why American Idol's voting base is corrupt. Her post-Idol recordings are independently produced and kept under wraps. I am confident she will have number 1 hits. I am confident that she will give Kris Allen a run for his money.
Jasmine Murray deserved to be in the competition more than the top 11 except Adam Lambert and Allison Iraheta. She should have gotten 3rd place instead of 13th place.
@mamonkeysgotskills I disagree... look at this watch Lil's performance of Single Ladies at Hamilton.... just type in Lil Rounds single Ladies Hamilton... I think that it is better then this...
when i competed at the teen miss america (miss america outstanding teen) i competed with her. she represented mississippi and i represented ohio! (my name MOOT-Miss Ohio Outstanding Teen 0708) she made top 10! she sang beautifully!!!!
@MOOT0708 Jasmine Murray has her official YouTube channel: TheJasmineMurray. I already subscribed to it. Sadly, the ultimately power ranking of 120 Idol contestants by Idol Tracker on Los Angeles ranks Jasmine Murray at no. 116 out of 120, but that is better than being unlisted. That is preposterous! I know she is way better than most of the contestants that are ranked above her. However, the ranking results lack credibility. Some of those on the list are semifinalists or rejected auditionerrs.
Jasmine Murray is musically diverse, and that may have led her to be criticized by rock fans. I suggest that she takes the pop route. That way she will have a great chance to prove that America was wrong about her.
American Idol judge Randy Jackson said a few years ago: "No matter where you finish on Idol—even if you finish twelfth [or thirteenth]—if you make a great record and you got that kind of exposure, the public will resoundingly buy it." This quote was originally used to refer to Chris Daughtry from season 5. Jasmine Murray will be a perfect testament to this aforementioned quote.
I love this girl too. She is my all-time favorite American Idol contestant. She is my only first pick (or favorite finalist of the season) on American Idol who did not make the tour, and it is a shame. My second favorite finalist Chikezie Eze from season 7 barely made the tour.
her first elimination was meritted on Idol but once she made the top 13... i thought she deserved to move on to the top 11 after I'll be there but I don't she had any right making top 5... great singer but there were a lot of great singers on AI 8
Jasmine Murray's semifinal elimination was due to a lousy song choice. That partly led her to be eliminated before the top 11. Her top 13 elimination was unwarranted, for her performance of "I'll Be There" was better than Megan Joy's performance of "Rockin' Robin" and Anoop Desai's performance of "Beat It." On the other hand, Jorge Núñez's elimination was warranted for his performance was worse than Jasmine's. Jasmine Murray should have at least made the top 10.
Jasmine Murray is very commercial, while Megan Joy is karaoke. What Jasmine showcased on American Idol is only the tip of the iceberg in terms of her potential. She has more potential than most of the others in the top 13.
Jasmine Murray was the first boot in the finals of American Idol season 8 because of unpopularity caused by abysmal song choice in the semifinals. She is young and inexperienced, but she has great potential singing and other talent fields, including dancing. When asked what she would pursue if she cannot sing, she would do dancing. In five years time, she will find her true self and showcase her true talent, and probably she will be more successful than Kris Allen.
Jasmine Murray is my all-time favorite American Idol finalist. She is the most underrated of the top 13. My all-time second favorite is Chikezie Eze from American Idol season 7. Lil Rounds is my second favorite of season 8, with Anoop Desai being my third favorite.
I am absolutely shocked about Jasmine Murray's elimination. I am absolutely shocked that America voted to have her miss out on the American Idol summer tour, along with Jorge Núñez and Alexis Grace. I am a mile more shocked about her being eliminated than I was about any other reality TV show contestant. She is really top 10 material. She will prove that she should have made it much farther on American Idol. Megan Joy is karaoke and did not deserve to be on the Idol tour.
omg jasmine was so amazing she rocked i loved her performance she is really gonna be a star she could do anything she just proved it she should of made it farther in american idol
Yes, Jasmine Murray is my all-time favorite American Idol finalist. Lil Rounds is my second favorite of the top 13 and my all-time seventh favorite finalist.
Wow, I love it! U have a great voice and you are very cute. How I told you on twitter- you gonna be a star. And never ever stop singing, that is ur thing! Keep doing it sweetie :) (twitter- annymaria)
DANG. i knew when she was eliminated it was a mistake.... She shudda made it to top 5 at least

In my opinion, Jasmine Murray's version of "Single Ladies" was better than Lil Rounds version. Jasmine can sing Beyoncé better than Lil can.
