Making The Band 4.1: Can YOU Stand The Rain?
Posted on June 19, 2007 10:00 AM
Dream. B5. Total. 112. Da Band. Danity Kane. New Edition. Diddy couldn't breathe life into any of these groups, so he's back at the MTV drawing board. Brace yourselves.
Aight, SOHH Heads, I just finished checking out the first episode of this season's Making The Band 4. Now, the first thing I wondered before even watching this show is why the hell Diddy was still doing this sh*tty show. IT DOESN'T WORK! DO YOU WANT TO SPEND HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS PRODUCING A SHOW FOR A MEDIOCRE-AT-BEST GROUP? (Don't front: Who REALLY thinks Danity Kane is coming out with a second album?)
You know why I have so much hate for this show to start with? DIDDY'S JUDGEMENT IS SH*TTY. HE WOULDN'T KNOW REAL TALENT IF IT GAVE HIM A BLOW JOB (maybe that's why Cheri Dennis is on the label? I digress!) Aight, I'ma let y'all know something: Remember Yahaira V. from MTB3, the first season? I went to college with her and we were pretty decent associates. On top of which, this girl can sing! She may not be the best dancer, but she DEFINITELY should have been apart of the group. But yet, they chose that bland-as-white-bread (literally) Shannon to be in the group. That's aight, cause my girl's doing her thing in Miami now!!
But back to this episode...the good, the bad, the boom-kat-kat.
Puff starts off the show by talking about this so-called "Dream Team" he's established to bully (I mean, guide) these youngsters down the right path. Now you know when he starts, the first person I expect him to mention is greasy, black-lipped Harve "Cueball" Pierre, but he was nowhere to be found...yet. I'm not counting him out-- pretty sure he'll make an appearance as some point.
But let's take a look at Diddy's Ace Boon Coons for this season:
B. Cox-- Of course, this is Bryan Michael Cox, the award-winning songwriter. Whatever. But umm, why does Diddy give him the gayest nicknames ever? BEE COCKS. Not a good look, my dude. I'd talk to Puff about him referring to you as something else-- at least when y'all are not behind closed doors.
Joe-- Nope, I didn't stutter. That Joe. WHY HIM!? Ohh yeah! That's right, because Carl Thomas, the only REAL singer you had besides Faith Evans, finally decided to jump off the Titanic and swim back to shore!
Hell's Kitty Kat -- Laurie Ann's back with her g**damn Billy Blanks chanting. That was probably the most ANNOYING thing about her when she worked with the all-girl group. BOOM KAT, BOOM KAT KAT! AND FREEZE! AND HONEYPOT, AND SUGARCAKE, AND GO! BOOM KAT KAT!
and lastly.....::drumroll please::
MICHAEL BIVINS, BABY!!! As much as I admire this man, I have to admit that I'm kind of on the fence about his inclusion on the roster. Yes, he was apart of New Edition and BBD, as well as helped catapult Boys II Men to the top. BUT... he's also responsible for 702, lest we forget. And that group from waaaay back in the day called Subway, if I'm not mistaken (don't quote me on that one).
So now we got our lackeys established, let's go on to summarize this episode, since it's fair to say that we can all assume what went down. The Dream Team (I gotta think up a new name for this peeps, 'cuz this ain't cuttin' it) go to several cities to see a few good men with singing capabilties. All them are asked to sing (or, at least, are shown singing) Boys II Men's "End of The Road", New Edition's "Can You Stand The Rain", and Stevie Wonder's "My Cherie Amor". All of these are pretty easy to sing (didn't you sing "End Of The Road" at your JHS or HS graduation? We did it in JHS) but can you believe some of these dudes STILL managed to f*ck it up? Anyways, after each guy is chosen from each city, 38 of them are flown to NYC where they are to meet Diddy, who is going to cut 20 of them the next day. Of course, they are told this information while wearing brand new North Faces standing in front of the Central Park reservoir. DRA-MA-TICS. And lo and behold, he does this the next day. La-di-f*ckin-da. This was a boring episode, what you want me to do, I'm sorry!!
I'm tired of talking about the basic sh*t. I'm just going to go through some of the few highlights I found from the hour of my life I wasted on this episode.
*Apparently, Diddy has been paying attention to the current popularity of Robin Thicke and Justin Timberlake and has decided, "I need me some whiteboys!" Hence, Dan and Donnie made it to the house. Now, let's back up a second: it's gonna be reeeaaally tough to hate on these guys (except for both of their Growing Up Gotti boys' gelled up haircuts) because these two can actually sing. In fact, if Dan gets to be one of THE CHOSEN for the group, he's gonna be the male version of Aubrey O'Day. You have to admit, Aubrey's a hot b*tch. Straight up. But if they start some "Wassup, my n*ggas" crap... well, I can't wait to see that beatdown in the making.
* William Hung has a cousin that can sing-- sort of! His name is Sam, and I forgot his country of origin, but when he sung Luther Vandross' "Superstar", BEE COCKS and Biv both looked they had woodies-- until they noticed that, DUHH, Sam can't enunciate! He says WADIO for RADIO! Aww, I was really hoping he'd make it to the house. Oh well. Try American Idol, buddy.
*Julius-- I'm really glad Diddy stopped jerking off long enough to realize this boy's potential. He's a church boy, so he sang "I Won't Complain" a few times. He may come off as weak, but this dude got heart. Don't sleep!
*Chris-- WHY THE F*CK DID THIS DUDE MAKE IT TO THE HOUSE?! DON'T WE HAVE ENOUGH DUDES IN THE GAME THAT CAN WIGGLE AND SHAKE A LIKE F*CKIN TICKLE-ME-ELMO BUT REALLY CAN'T SING (like Chris Brown)? AAAAAH DIDDY YOU SUCK!!!!
*Michael--Big brothas need love too. I was MAD when Laurie Ann asked him why he was breathing so hard during a dance practice. B*tch, these dudes ain't at Usher's level yet! Chill the fuck out! Obviously your work ain't all that because WHAT THE F*CK IS DANITY KANE DOING THESE DAYS?
*De-Angelo-- Brotha, do you gargle with acid rain? PLEASE fix those rusty @$$ railroad tracks in your mouth before you EVER open your mouth to sing again. 'Nuff said.
GAYEST MOMENT OF THE SHOW: While in mid-comment, Diddy said, "Hold up, I gotta take off my Sean John shades, in stores now!" and lifted them in slow-mo. I rather wear the f*ckin Ray-Bans from the Men In Black movies.
FUNNIEST MOMENT OF THE SHOW: While Laurie giddily discussed a contestant, Diddy replied, "You're talking too loud. Shut the f*ck up!" Completely shut her down! This also makes Laurie Ann THE ASSHOLE OF THE SHOW because she totally got checked not once, but TWICE by these dudes (the second time courtesy of Michael Bivins, after which the camera panned to Laurie's sad face that looked exactly like this :( Aww, I think it's time to go, Kitty Kat, 'cuz they don't want no more Kitty Kat.
But how long will she put up with it? Time will tell... but the promos won't.
Anyway, that's it for now. This episode was boring. I hope it picks up and one of these guys comes out the closet or something and is rumored to have had a threesome with Diddy and Fonzworth. We'll see.
But here's a question for y'all.... correct me if I'm wrong, but this dude (see below) wasn't on the show, right? Maybe I missed him? And if I didn't.... then AGAIN, Daddy Don't Know SH*T, 'cuz this dude may not be THE BEST, but he's better than that Chris dude!

Lol. Congrats baby girl. You are starting to come into your own with this shit. I know people been giving you a hard time cause my dude Ron is a Hard act to follow. But keep doing what you do miss. "*De-Angelo-- Brotha, do you gargle with acid rain?" lol, i love it.
He couldn't breathe life into 112 and Total. Last time I checked, they both had albums to go platinum. Anyways, you sound like someone who was rejected from making the band the way you hating. However, it is your opinion, and in my opinion, you are a hater...........
That shit was funny.(BOOM KAT, BOOM KAT KAT! AND FREEZE! AND HONEYPOT, AND SUGARCAKE, AND GO! BOOM KAT KAT!)LMAO!!
Puffy wants us to think that it's not about him it's about the groups he creates, but he wants to be the star that's why the groups never make it and move on. He wants to stay relevant so that is why he does this dumb ass show knowing that nobody wants to see a boy band.
That was so disrespectful when Diddy came at Laurie Ann like that during the competition. I hope she said something to dude afterwards and it was edited that way for TV. He is such a punk I can not stand him. So sick of the attack on the black woman. Should Mike Bivins be on a reunion tour somewhere?

Finally I must agree with him on everything he said..Let to not mention. NEW EDITION who is signed to BABD BOYZ lastest album flopped, and JOE who droped 3 weeks ago has he sold 100,000 yet?
I didnt see 1 boi on the show that jsut can st8 up blow..
If this supose 2 be and R&B soul type of group, then why u try-n to make them jump around doing those WACK ass dance moves.
Here is what people don’t understand about puffy. His job is to give you a chance. He is not supposed to baby you and make you a superstar. That’s what the show is for. He is suppose to give you an open door so you can get out there and do the damn thing.
A lot of people hate on him because he is hella arrogant and rude but the business is cut throat and they don’t have time to make you a hot commodity. That’s what you need to do. To me he does what he needs to. a lot of groups that come out from him could have been way bigger then what they are but they have to fight for it.
Now not to say puffy is a saint because he can be a bastard but he has a company to run so if he doesn’t focus all of his attention on you it’s because he has ADD and he focuses to much energy on to many other things.
Basically I love me some puffy he gives people a chance. He is an ass but he keeps it real. It’s there choice on how they us that chance.
Oh and your still not funny … at all.=(
Hey...what happened to Mr. Mexico...I'ma have to get at him on the space to see if the brother finally growed up and had a change of heart.
I see SOHH.COM can't let the hate die, the whole concept behind "Talkin Videos" needs to be checked. Get that hate out ya heart....you say it's just entertainment, but naw..it's more than that. Check it!
CHRIST BLESS!
PZ
SOHH writers never know what yall be talking about, guess thats why allhiphop & boxden is kicking yall a**.
Are you people serious with this shit. Gets real lives and stop wasting your lives for once. Who gives a rats fucking ass 4 real!
~@ PZ
Shut the Fuck up with that shit take your "Christ Commando" ass somewhere else.
"Get the Hate out your heart" Nigga please! The whole purpose of this blog is to put a satirical spin on ridiculous videos that shouldn't have been made in the first place.
This is a comedic blog and most comedy is based on poking fun at the stupid aspects of life.
Not that Breezy is even slightly funny I swear she must of fucked a nigga blind to get this job. Maybe I'm just slow to let go of Ron, but his shit used to have me laughing like a fool in public. I actually frown reading this lame garbage.
Breezy,
Laurie Ann already sued Puff and Mike Bivins on some assualt shit and seeing how they talked to her on the show, she might win some cash money(got to say it like Wilmer from "Yo Mamma!).
I don't know why any aspiring artist with talent would want to do business with him. Puff will jerk u, sign you to a fucked up deal cause you hungery to get on, and make himself the star of your shit. Puff is good at keeping himself relevant, that is his talent.
I'm going to watch because the Puff is entertaining as hell, he's a funny dude even when he's not trying to be funny. I can't really hate on him either because he's one of most successful young black men around today. I just hope he continues to grow as a father and man.
good effort breezy but i still want ron back no offense... the show was stupid to me... another boring ass season
Ron Ain't Coming Back to SOHH
I'm not sure where Breezy is going her commentary since she got a lot wronge.
1. Puffy doesn't spend money on this show, he makes money. The advertisers pay for the show, not Puffy.
2. Diddy didn't try to breath life into the groups you mentioned. Other than NE he stifled the groups at the height of thier success.
3. While it may have been a publicity stunt, it was announced the Laurie Ann was fired after the altercation with Puffy and Mike. Puff is a known woman beater.
I think Diddy does this for fun. He has yet to produce a long term success story other than his own. That is what I kept thinking last night. These boys think their dreams are being realized when in fact they are at the beginning of a fairly short road to oblivion.
All that being said, I enjoyed the show and have already watched it twice and will likely watch a bunch more times before the next one. Yall better watch out for that Asian dude. If he can get a grip on that accent and Americanize his look be would be a force to be reconned with. I think he had the best voice by far.
Puffy shouldn't disrespect Laurie Ann like that.....I mean honestly, how would he react if someone degraded him like that???.....
GET FAMILIAR. TRUTH BE TOLD 7 10 07.
You have no clue bout the music business. You should do a blog on comedy. Puff made Total,112, Danity Kayne all Stars. The first 2 fell off once they left PUff. Danity Kane has been on and eight month tour opening for Christina and PCD all over the world making money..the have sold 3 million records worldwide, plus MTV pays puff to do this show and Runs HOuse...GET A CLUE!
damn breezy couldnt even finish reading the blog cuz i lost interest (handle that)
People don't realize what they got till its gone. Now I realize the genius of Ron Mexico
This is why music and society are so sad today becuase shit like this is aired on t.v and the kids look up to this garbage. Fuck Diddy and Fuck MTV especially that Dances in the hood show or whatever the fuck that crap is called. Another making the band. 4 what where are all of the other making the bad rejects, on crack??? broke??? fuck ouuta here. Look in the mirror society and you will see a very sad a bleek future
Man this junk was too d@mn funny!! Gayest moment was diddy throwing in that ad, but it was funny ass hell though, ya'll go to admit he's got no shame in his hustle!!
OHHHH THE HUMANITY!!!!
man F all that just click my name and u'll hear some nice hip hop! COLLABO!
MTV don't care about a group - the people watching don't either - they know there will be mad foolishness on this show.
Diddy is making mad cheddar at MTV - this show and Run's House is making mad $$$$$ for MTV -
But Breezy you are cool!
So from now on I will stop asking for Ron! Do your thang boo!
I love the Boom Kat Kat...lol Funny shit Breezy!
Peace
Well know that I know what happenend to Ron (no thanks to Sohh Cheezy, I no longer have a need for you.
Peace out Motherfuckers!
BITCH, IM THE HATER NOT YOU!!!
You sound salty like nutts in your mouth bitch. You wanna pass judgement on a man who is worth 500Million times you worthless ass life bitch? LOL. You gotta be kidding me. Dont sit here an pop shit about diddy because your friend wasnt talented enough to make the cut.
Leave your personal shit at the door bitch, noone cares.
BRING BACK RON MEXICO! THIS BITCH IS HORRIBLE!!
KONEECHIWA BEYYYAAATTCCHHHH!!!!!
It is true Diddy is clouded by his ego nowadays. You are a hater though! Joe has a great voice and has been around for over 10 years. Biv's group (NE) is still one of the best live acts around. They can tour even when they don't have an album out. These cats have been around--so please stop hating.
Why did you have to make the comment about your girl not making it? She sucked when she had to harmonize. You have to be able to hear the other girls and she couln't do it.
End of story.
IM SUPPER FEELIN DAT DUDE JULIUS.. HE CAN SING.. ITZ A COUPLE OF OTHER ONEZ DA CAN SING 2.. I THINK THEY CAN MAKE A GREAT GROUP OUT OF ABOUT FOUR DUDEZ UP ON THE SHOW...
