    They are pretty impressive. I live in the Bay Area and have had the chance it see these kids in different settings. Nice to see them hit big time.

    Trivia bit: Two of the kids in the group are the sons of Dwayne Wiggins of Toni Tony Tone fame.

    They are pretty good, but I don't know about the Jackson 5... I think they've got their own sound and style. :eek:

    Vamos Los Jackson 5???

    Yeah I agree.

    We they auditioned, piers morgan said that he thought she was a star but she needed do ditch the band.

    She goes, when we get into an electric set you won't say what you just said. She already knows that she is the ****!

    Maybe Jackson 5, without Michael Jackson would be a more apt comparison?

    Music wise, I like them. But there's no way they can even challenge The Jackson 5.

    Although she's very musically talented, I found the lead singer to be extremely annoying and arrogant.

    I don't think she is even the most talented member of the group. But still, they are a hard working goup of kids.

    The Jackson 5 are getting overrated because they had Michael Jackson. Michael Jackson was a fantastic singer and performer, but he would not have been a superstar without Quincy Jones producing his music.

    There have even been SOLID artists compared to greats who's careers didnt materialize close to projections. Oasis was supposed to be the next big great British band, etc...

    Money's already hard to come by for SOLO artists. I don't think there is enough money to go around for multiple members in pop groups these days, for them to stick together long enough to carve out a solid career. I wish it WASN'T that way. I'd love for there to be another Jackson 5.

    Just too much apathetic support toward music now to make artists mega superstars like the days of old.

    I hate to be this guy, but I am going to be him anyway. Superstar? SUPERSTAR?

    As far as kid groups go, do they even come in the same ballpark as these dudes?

    I didn't see anything impressive. Just another group covering a song for a talent show. How many of these talent show winner actually become solid artists?

    I'd say they're much more similar to Black Eyed Peas than Jackson 5. The singe annoys me just as much, too.

    It's hard to really compare them to anybody, though, since I haven't heard an original yet.
