Right now at this very moment a child is being born. Born with exceptional abilities for sports, some recieve great mind and the very special ones get the gift of song. One out of every fifty kids maybe blessed with this gift. But one out of every hundred may become a star. Having the gift of song is a gift that is hereditary. Families can pass this gene down from generation to generation. I have seen it time and time again. Anyone can learn to sing but to truly captivate the crowd has to be inbred.

Some kids are born with the ability to run fast or jump high. These are traits that lots of kids can develop or learn with practice. Vocal lessons help some people understand the mechanics of how to deliver melodious sounds that sound angelic. Others are born with it. Wheat I mean by it is BSP black star power. Only a few ever reach reach the superstar level. Not only do u have to be born with it one has to come into them self and really understand that they have it(BSP). They must nurture the gift and develop the gift and except the gift. Some stars don't have the sound that is defined as it for example Genuine sounds crappy but his stage presence is off the hook. He has to compensate for not having it. Brian McKnight has an angelic sound and one can tell the difference in the tones and the more technical runs that he does compared to G. Most kids who have it develop it in the where?, The church. My grand mother used to drill me and my cousins as kids to get the pitch perfect. i used to hate it but i got it right.

Families with the it gene as i like to call it pass it down from generation to generation. Grandmom give it to their kids, they pass it to their kids, and so starts the cycle. Being from a family with a musical background often gives a singer a better chance of being talented. Look at the Jacksons, The Winnans, The Debarges and the list goes on and on. There are exceptions where there is only one who is blessed with the gift of song. They become the shining stars of the industry. There are a few who have it and never get the opportunity to be heard except in the churches. American Idol tosses away a lot of great singers and others shows as well because of a persons look. But the sound can't be denied. Being able to captivate the crowd can't be taught one must be born with it. It cant be taught it is hereditary. Trust me I know. I was born with it!
