The singer/beatboxer who was the runner-up on the sixth season of American Idol. He's since released four studio albums, one live album, a remix album, and hit #1 on the dance chart with Heartbreak on Vinyl.  |

Shouldn't they have, you know- someone who has won or been nominated for a Grammy on a Grammy celebration tour?? I guess it's not like they want him singing and there's no grammy award for DJ-ing.

I really want new music from him. I still listen to "End Of The World," & "She's Making Me Lose It" on a regular basis.

Um...shouldn't this be moved to the artist showcase forum?
This board isn't for random new, unsigned artists...if it was, then it would be bombarded from all of the random people from myspace who are 'making an album.'

He was signed to a major label and was on American Idol. The thread will drop off the front page eventually unless there's some more news. |

Those are GREAT pictures. Thanks for posting them.
Blake's single with Darude was the perfect direction for him and recording for Tommy Boy sounds like a great fit.

I saw him on Idol Extra. He has gained a lot of weight- he doesn't look good. He lip-synced a version of "Disturbia." The thing is, he has a pretty decent voice- I like the quality- he needs to stop the "beat-boxing"- it's already played out- if he really wants to be an electronica artist, he's got to move on from those beat-boxing gimmicks- he looks stupid doing it anyway.
But I like his voice- he could still have a decent career.

Not a bad song- not really dance, though which is what I thought he was going to concentrate on. He really needs to do something about his appearance- it's hard to look at him because he has become so hideous.

It can't be said enough that he looks like garbage lately.   As a reminder that he can look semi-attractive. Hope he gets it together! On a non-superficial note, the new music is sounding kinda hot. Thanks, George P. for all the updates. |

He needs a stylist and nutritionist desperately. He doesn't look like he's getting enough sleep either.

"Heartbreak on Vinyl" not a bad title- kind of quirky and interesting.

sorry but who cares that he put on like 10 pounds let him live his life .
Its not like he is a super star a lot of people don't know who is or that he is recording a cd.
So he seems like one of those artists that are there but not promenient

If I'm not mistaken, I thought I read that one D.J. compilation was nominated for a Grammy, and I think it was because the D.J. had at least one original song on the compilation. Speaking of which, I've said this before, and I will say it again: Blake should hit the D.J. circuit. There is good money in spinning the steel at the dance clubs. There might be thousands upon thousands of deejays on this planet, but if he is good at selecting the material he plays, the calls will keep coming for invitations. This is what made Tiësto, PvD and Armin van Buuren legends, although they also produce their own material. |

Blake Lewis to Release Dance-Pop Album Blake Lewis wants you to dance! American Idol’s season 6 runner-up will release his second album, Heartbreak on Vinyl, on Oct. 6 via Tommy Boy Entertainment. Shifting from pop-rock to dance-pop, Lewis says his new album, “the culmination of over 10 years in the dance scene,” will be “filled with electro pop goodness with melodies I cherish.” Currently in the studio finishing the record, Lewis called on producers Rodney Jerkins (who’s worked with Britney Spears and Lady Gaga) and Dave Aude (who’s worked with the Pussycat Dolls) to craft his new high-energy sound. “The music in the dance scene gets me out onto the dance floor to lose my inhibition,” Lewis says of the inspiration behind his new project. “The title is an ode to all the record stores that have been closing down due to my industry eating itself. These are the stores that brought inspiration to all of us music lovers and have led me to make the music I create today.” Check back to PEOPLE.com on July 21 for an exclusive first listen of Lewis’s new single “Sad Song.” – Jessica Herndon tvwatch.people.com/2009/07/01/blake-lewis-to-release-dance-album/ |

Finally some concrete dates for the project! I am excited about this new direction. Hopefully some clips of the songs will surface before July 21.
