Cuz if he won, then you'd have three winners in a row singing the same type of music. Don't get me wrong, I love Carrie Underwood and I think she is absolutely amazing and deserved to win, but I think Nikko could have given her a run for her money if Simon gave him more positive commentary.
No racism is intended in this comment, but I feel like the only reason Simon shitted on him constantly is because he's black, and Fantasia, a black female, won the year before. The judges' commentary has a HUGE effect on the voters, and if Nikko won, which he easily could have, the show would probably lose it's diversity in genre and become bland. (You have Kelly the pop/rock singer, Rubben was the r&b guy, and Fantasia was the soul singer, and then you have Carrie who's the country singer)
@danielle112753 Umm, Simon is not racist, Vonzell Solomon and Nadia Turner were both as you said "black females" and he was not unfairly hard on them. I remember Simon saying to Nadia something like that everyone in the competition was a hamburger, where she was a steak (meaning she was a step above the rest). Vonzell he praised quite often, especially on her performance "You've got the Best of my Love." Personally, I think that Nikko was out of tune a lot this song. I did like Nikko though!
He didn't do this song any justice!! I agree with Simon!!

To be honest I thought this was not a great song choice by Nikko. He did do a good job on singing this song, though.
