American Idol - Chikezie Eze - I Believe To My Soul

[84salute]

To those who really know chikezie mma madu IYA!

[kdanielle009]

He definitely doesn't sing better than Elliot Yamin........he was terrible.

[Vendola3]

Ignorance and politics and hatred........CHIKEZIE is THE BEST singer ever on this dumb show

[Vendola3]

THEY SCREWED CHIKEZIE....PERIOD

[103dtd]

I Love him sooooo much

[mmmboots9]

What a voice, and that's my friend on that stage. :)

[ledzeppelin489]

yeah, he used to have parnell at smc

[PolarTek1]

@mmmboots9 lolwut

[7pere]

Chikezie rules!!Great voice!

[JoJo330]

I hope his album does great. Hope he does a little pop/rnb crossover so he can get the noteriety that he deserves. He's so entertaining.

[darealest006]

i dont think this guy knows how good his voice is

[TediusZanarukando]

I love this performance as well. Chikezie is my second favorite American Idol finalist ever. He was my all-time favorite until last March. I am expecting to hear from him soon. He has recently inked a record deal with Universal Music Group. He is busy working on his debut album. I am looking forward to listening to the album. I would like for him to revisit the Idol stage in American Idol season 9.

[justanoli]

This was the best performance of the season.

[qtpa2tea]

This is rreally good

[Dankarocks5]

FANTASTIC

[doogleandalix]

Really hot version of this song - I love Eliot ,but Chikeze did a fantastic job with his version of this !

[MissWC]

WTF? He sounds crappy after listening to Elliott Yamin's version. Sorry . . .

[Sandyhendry]

No way. Chikezie is feeling it. And the power in his voice...wow. I agree that he was useless on ballads though.

[forsureblonde51294]

i love this performance by him!!!

[haydenpanettiere501]

i just didnt like him much.

[GeorgiaPat]

GREAT performance! I know he likes the ballads, but this is his real strength, and it's HOT! Makes me want to dance!

[msdynamic]

I don't think this guy knows how great his voice is...

[PinkyBehr]

awesome song!

[Zing0000]

he definitly had the potential to go farther, he just chose one of tha most boring songs ever recorded

[AlterSpades]

The most under-rated singer this season, along with Carly.

[icecoldbruh]

much better than Elliotts version

[AIChamp08]

I could rank Chikezie's 6 performances very easily.

1st She's A Woman Top 12

2nd I Believe to My Soul Top 20

3rd I've Just Seen a Face Top 11

4th If Only For One Night Top 10

5th All the Woman That I Need Top 16

6th More Today Than Yesterday Top 24

[heatherblu19]

i love this guy he shouldne gone farrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

[marceloyanez111]

so true

[Sandyhendry]

Just checked out Luther Vandross original of all the woman I need and Chikeze's version is better! Him and Seisha had all the energetic and moving moments. David A is like watching a concert pianist showing off, too many notes, and David Cooke is a one-trick pony (I like his trick but it's getting a bit samey)

[marie99nicole]

i really enjoyed watching him during this one and he's "she's a woman" performance, i just find him entertaining!

[myotragus63]

American Idol reflects Fox's racism and also America still has a long way to go. As a caucassian I feel like the blond haired blue eyed less talented singers get more votes. There are so many amazing black singers its not right for American Idol to have chosen so few. Chikezie should not have been voted off before some of the others. Simon never really liked him!

[icognito01]

You're kidding me? Last season were top 3 Black girls. And did you know that Rubben won??

[goboywonder]

Chikezie Eze, the thrill is GONE!

[doubleDdog09]

i love how her inserted his own name in2 the song! lol BRILLIANT!

[chefjonnyp]

he is probably the best of this season!!! he will be a star

[sportsbabe001]

ha ha i liked this audition

[sportsbabe001]

ha ha i liked this audition

[sportsbabe001]

ha ha i liked this audition

[CheeseburgerEdddy]

Your right that is why half of the American Idol winners from the first 6 seasons were black

[lword1970]

American idol is rigged against black contestants. now they are at the point that they don;t even pick many of them for the top 20 and the ones they do are not the most talented. they do that on purpose. another thing that kills me about simon and randy is that when a white person sings r&b its automatically hip and cool but god forbid a black person sings an old r&b song then they are old and not hip. no other genre gets blasted like r&b on american idol unless its being sung by a white person

[XXGuitarPlayerDudeXX]

lol no it's not. you're being completely ignorant. The judges liked Chikezie's upbeat hip-hop funk-ish style, they didn't lie his cheesy love-ballad side. And as for being rigged against black people, not even close to the truth...

[jespeach]

lword1970: Are you really that daft or trying to get attention? They LOVED it when Chikezie sang R&B. What they didn't like was when he sang the boring sappy songs, which obviously LOTS of people didn't like, since he was voted off. And darling, if it were rigged against black people, why did Ruben and Fantasia WIN?

[holder1981]

i agree with some of what you said...this year defo didnt have the same amount of black people than last year which is sad cos last year most of the great singer where black...melinda, lakisha,stephanie buut i doo not think american idol is racist tba the talent on this years show is nothing compared to last season and thats from black and white people

o well hopefully next yr will be better lol

[goldrush22]

this guys got soul!

[lienrui]

whoever elias145 is you are one disgusting mojo

[Elias145]

I Believe right in the mouth

[eminemzz]

whoa this dude's a real good soul singer

[izabela]

awesome vocals no doubt ! one of the best !

[dogbitez]

I could listen to this over and over... which I have! I loved Chikezie's version of this song. He was the only guy that picked something with some soul... the other guys picked hopelessly generic stuff that we've all heard way too many times thru the years.

[dlmracefans]

If nothing else, he should just do a studio recording of this song and sell it! He did an awesome job!

[Vanillacoke920]

wayyyy better than last week Go Chikeze

[ford2M]

Chikezie's version of this song is much better than Donny Hathaway's OR Ray Charles!

I had never heard this song before Chikezie performed it.

Have been listening to it over and over!

[IfeDavid]

Am feelin this Guy!
