Blerd Radio – American Idol Season 11 Top 13 Preview
Later this week, the top 13 for season 11 of American Idol sing for their pop lives. I will blog the happenings here every week. I’ve watched nearly every episode of American Idol, so I know a little bit about this show. But I grabbed someone who knows even more about this show than I do, and she’s someone who I first met when I was in grade school.

The R&B songstress’s latest effort starts at #1 on the pop and R&B album charts with 310,000 units. While it’s a little lower than the numbers that have greeted past efforts, if anyone considers a total north of 300,000 copies to be a failure or a disappointment, they’re seriously delusional. Bey is the biggest of […]
