                    [Summary] => Given the popularity of its last three albums, I honestly wondered when M.Y.M.P. would finally get out of the small bistros and take its music to the Big Dome. The task does seem daunting for any artist but it is also a fact that hereabouts, the true test for an artist is to do a concert at the Araneta Coliseum before 15,000 people. If a singer or a group can fill up that huge venue then nobody is likely to raise anymore questions if they are truly a success or not.

                    [Summary] => Martin Nievera, himself an excellent balladeer, fully described what Luther Vandross was to the music industry. "Every balladeer wants to be like Luther," said Martin. And so it has been ever since Vandross broke into the top of the R&B charts more than 20 years ago with Never Too Much. While there were many other artists whose vocals fit the silky description like Teddy Pendergrass, Lionel Richie, George Benson and Brian McKnight, not one of them was as silky as Luther’s.

Jackson and Sean Astin to previous winners like Norah Jones and John Mayer plus 19 musical numbers that dazzled viewers.
