Noop’s Group
If you’re following American Idol this season, you’ve undoubtedly seen the R&B powerhouse contestant Anoop Desai. He instantly won me over when he performed “My Prerogative” by Bobbie Brown. Who else has done that kind of song (besides the idiots that wear chicken costumes in tryouts)? When I heard it, I couldn’t believe it. He’s a preppy-dressing Indian that has more soul than 90% of the folks nominated for Grammies this year. And he nailed it.
Anyway, I looked him up tonight and the guy is part of an acapella group out of U. North Carolina called Clefhangers. These guys are amazing. I’ve pulled a video of one of my favorites, “I’ll Make Love To You”. Noop Dogg is the lead singer and just absolutely steals the show in this clip. Really looking forward to seeing him progress this season. I wasn’t going to watch the show this season, but I’m intrigued again.
