LA is such an.ignorant **** who think he knows everything in the music industry when he clearly doesn't. Why doesn't he say anything to Melanie whos 19 singing church songs for 60 yr oldgrannies.
Praise to him for being a legitimately multi talented and emotive musician with consistent performances. Nobody has his balance, even if he doesn't quite have sale power.
I think LA Reid might end up alienating viewers, which might in turn hurt his contestants (particularly Astro). I enjoy his sassiness but he should cool it a bit.
