Blake Colin Lewis (born July 21, 1981) is an American singer and beatboxer
who was the runner-up to Jordin Sparks on the sixth season of American Idol.
Biography
Early years
Lewis was born in Redmond, Washington to Dallas and Dinah Lewis, who is a
former rocker who still sings and plays guitar, as the only child in the
family of Welsh, German and Irish descent.[1][2][3] He attended Kenmore
Junior High and later Inglemoor High School in Kenmore, Washington.[4][5] In
high school, Lewis participated in many high school state competitions. He
also took part in numerous musicals, as well as comedy and rap videos with
his friends.[6][7][8] In many of these videos, for instance, "The Chuck
Norris Rap", "The Harry Potter Rap" and "The Snakes on a Plane Rap", he
portrayed his alter ego, Jimmie Walker Blue, the character he introduced
during the semi-final round of American Idol.
Lewis started beatboxing at seventeen by listening to CDs and picking up
this talent purely by ears after he was inspired by Matthew Selby, a former
member of the Los Angeles-based a cappella group M-Pact, of which fellow
American Idol semi-finalist Rudy Cárdenas is a member.[3][9][10] Lewis was a
member of the a cappella group KickShaw for four years after graduating from
high school in 1998.[9][7][11] He had worked with the group on a 10-track
album titled Put It In the Microphone but he quit the group in 2002 and
became a full-time musician going by the stage name Bshorty, "doing drum and
bass shows, and conscious hip hop shows, singer-songwriter stuff, and
electronica and hip hop".[11][12][13][14] Aside from singing and beatboxing,
Lewis plays the guitar, piano, drums and has written many songs such as "She
Loves The Way", "Emotional Waterfall", "Dumpty Humpty" and
"Jealousy".[15][16][17] Before Idol, he was working on a solo album with a
number of tracks finished.[18]
American Idol
Lewis auditioned for Idol in Seattle—despite having never seen the show
before—with "Crazy" by Seal.[19] Introducing himself as the local beatboxing
champion in the audition, Lewis beatboxed along with his teammates,
including Chris Sligh, Rudy Cárdenas and Tom Lowe, to "How Deep Is Your
Love" by Bee Gees in the Hollywood's Week. The memorable performance
received a standing ovation from the audience and Paula, who commented "that
brought down the house". In an early episode of the United Kingdom edition
of American Idol, Lewis recalled his first solo performance in the
Hollywood's Week was "Papa Was a Rollin' Stone" by The Temptations. When
later he sang it in front of the other finalists, Phil Stacey felt that it
was the best performance he has seen from Lewis.[20]

Jordin Sparks Runner-up
Lewis ended up the last male contestant standing; the judges had predicted
Lewis' "front runner" status early in the competition. In an exclusive
interview with X17Online on March 4, 2007, Simon Cowell foresaw Lewis'
chance to take the crown.[21] After Lewis' performance of "Lovesong" by The
Cure/311 on March 27, Paula Abdul said that she would love to see him in the
finale. Cowell further confirmed that Lewis was the front runner of male
contestants on American Idol. Lewis, upon entering the top 2 on May 16,
2007, he thus became the first ever contestant from the Northwestern United
States (specifically, Washington) to compete in the finale.
I've tried to stay true to myself this whole entire time, and I think I've
represented myself as creatively as I could with what I got on the show.
Blake Lewis, interview with MTV.com[15]
Lewis' beatboxing and scat singing skills had been featured occasionally
throughout the competition, notably in the performances such as "Virtual
Insanity", "All Mixed Up", "Time of the Season", "You Give Love a Bad Name",
"You Should Be Dancing", "This Is Where I Came In" and "This Love". He had
also rearranged songs including "You Keep Me Hangin' On" and "You Give Love
a Bad Name". Although Lewis' first performance in the semi-final weeks,
"Somewhere Only We Know", was pure singing and inspired judges to make
comments about his contemporary vibe, his signature performance on the show
was probably "You Give Love a Bad Name" by Bon Jovi. Lewis incorporated a
substantial beatboxing component, making the song sound significantly
different from its original version. Jon Bon Jovi, the lead singer of the
band who also coached the contestants that week, noted that Lewis' rendition
was "rolling the dice". All three judges acknowledged the huge risk of
Lewis' arrangement, but also praised him for his originality including
beatboxing. Randy Jackson believed that it was the most original performance
ever on the show. Cowell even predicted that 50% of the audience "would
absolutely hate it" but another half would love it. The groundbreaking
performance was later ranked #6 in top 20 all-time greatest American Idol
performances on AOL.com.[22]
It is also remarkable that several original versions of song Lewis performed
re-entered Billboard's Hot Digital Songs chart shortly after the show.
Lewis' first performance on-stage, "Somewhere Only We Know" by Keane,
re-entered the chart at #26; "Time of the Season", a The Zombies' hit in
1968, reached #67; Tim McGraw’s “When the Stars Go Blue” hit #39; Bon Jovi's
"You Give Love a Bad Name" shot up to #29; "This Love" and "She Will Be
Loved" by Maroon 5 re-entered at #41 and #45 respectively. Maroon 5’s album
Songs About Jane had re-entered the Top Pop Catalog Albums chart at #5 on
June 2, 2007 as well.
Lewis claimed 311 as his all-time favorite band after his performance of
"All Mixed Up".[23] Responding to a viewer question on March 13, 2007, he
had also confessed his love of "underground hip hop, electronic music" such
as Common Market and Panda Conspiracy, with an addition of The Mob Law,
which in Lewis' opinion, "should be signed to a major label".[24]
While being the last two contestants waiting for the results on May 2, Lewis
and Chris Richardson answered Ryan Seacrest's question about their close
relationship, saying that they are best friends.[25] Interestingly, Lewis
has "Chris Sligh, Rudy Cárdenas", contestants from the sixth season of
American Idol, listed as his own "American idols" on his profile on American
Idol official website, while Sligh and Cárdenas also have Lewis on their
lists.[26][27][28] Furthermore, Lewis claimed in an interview with The
Blaker Girls that besides Richardson, Cárdenas and Sligh, his best friends
on the show were Brandon Rogers, Jordin Sparks and Gina Glocksen.[17] In the
episode of The View on June 14, 2007, Lewis said that there were "a lot of
writers on the show", including Richardson, Sligh and himself.[29]
Post-Idol
Lewis' songs from the American Idol have been on sale at the iTunes Store
and the American Idol official website as Blake Lewis - EP (called a
"bundle" on Idol official website) shortly after the finale of Idol, along
with other songs that did not make the EP's cut that are being sold as
individual singles. Figures from SoundScan which were being posted on USA
Today indicated that Lewis' "You Give Love a Bad Name" was "the
biggest-selling download of the season", with 192,000 copies sold.[30]
After the finale of Idol, Lewis has made several appearances on television
shows. He performed Maroon 5's "She Will Be Loved" on The Morning Show with
Mike and Juliet (combined with a snippet of U2's "With or Without You"), The
Today Show, Live with Regis and Kelly and The Early Show.[31][32] In the
episode of The View on June 14, 2007, he sang "Somewhere Only We Know" by
Keane.[29] Lewis had also appeared on Total Request Live, The Morning Show
with Mike and Juliet with the winner of Idol, Jordin Sparks and Larry King
Live with contestants who made into the top ten of American
Idol.[33][34][35] On July 4, 2007, Lewis performed "God Bless America" and
"America the Beautiful" on Macy's Fourth of July Fireworks Spectacular with
Sparks and Melinda Doolittle.[36][37]
Lewis will take part in the "American Idols LIVE! Tour 2007" from July 6 to
September 23, 2007, along with other contestants in the top ten. He revealed
on The View on June 14, 2007 that all the male contestants on the show will
be playing musical instruments on the tour (for the first time ever), "doing
like a folk band," and that he will bring along his loop pedals for his
beatboxing.[29]
Lewis was named #5 in the list of the 10 sexiest Idol contestants ever on
the website during the running of the sixth season of American Idol and was
ranked #21 in the list of music's 21 sexiest single men on June 11, 2007 on
AOL.com.[38][39] Later in the issue of People magazine on June 15, 2007, the
brand-new runner-up of Idol appeared on its list of "Hottest Bachelors of
2007".[40][41][42] He has also made a cut on the list of 50 hottest guys on
ELLEgirl magazine.[43]
2007: debut album TBD
On June 21, 2007, Lewis disclosed in his blog at MySpace that on top of the
American Idol tour, he has "been in meetings with producers and writers" for
his album, though his record deal has not been announced officially at that
time.[44] Lewis has been recording his album in the studio "for all night
long" since June 18.[45][46] As of July 22, he has already recorded seven
songs.[47] Lewis described some of the songs he has recorded on July 16,
2007:
“ I try not to be put in a box. I'm inspired by everything. I've got six
tracks done. I've got a track that's very Erasure-sounding, a track that's
Sting-meets-Neverending Story and a track that's very electro-poppy Depeche
Mode. It's all over the map.[48] ”
He expects to release the record on the Tuesday before Thanksgiving in 2007
and entitle it A.D.D. for "Audio Day Dream".[49]
The singer has stated in several interviews that he wants his future album
to have pop, electronic and jazzy hip hop feels to it, as he classified the
sound as "electro-funk-soul-pop".[50][46] He has also listed his ideal
choices of producers and collaborators for his album in various interviews,
including "Father of Trance" BT, Darkchild, will.i.am, Pro J, DJ Shadow, Dan
the Automator and Gnarls Barkley (the musical collaboration between Danger
Mouse and Cee-Lo Green).[50][51] In interviews with Entertainment Weekly
magazine and Entertainment Tonight, he mentioned a collaboration with Doug
E. Fresh, the hip hop/beatboxing legend Lewis beatboxed with to "The Show"
in the Grand Finale of the sixth season of American Idol and received a
standing ovation from the judges and the audience, as well as some of his
musical influences, such as Maroon 5, 311, Duran Duran, Michael Jackson and
Jamiroquai.[52][53]
Being interviewed by TV Guide on June 27, 2007, Lewis revealed that Doug E.
Fresh "is in talks to beatbox on a song" and one of his favorite producers,
BT, has signed on to produce his debut album.[46][54] Moreover, he is "going
to have four or five people beatbox between tracks”.[46] Travis Wall and
Ivan Koumaev (contestants on the second season of So You Think You Can
Dance), Chris Richardson (Lewis' "best friend" and fellow finalist on Idol)
and Ryan Tedder (the lead singer of the pop/rock band OneRepublic) are
getting to work with Lewis as well.[55][49][56][57]
Philanthropy
Lewis has been supporting cancer research at Children's Hospital and
Regional Medical Center in Seattle by donating 50% of the proceeds from the
merchandise of The Blaker Girls.[58] He chose to put his support behind this
organization after one of his best friends and his friend's girlfriend were
diagnosed with lymphoma.[6][59]
