‘Voice’ Star Jamar Rogers Rocks At Yahoo!

Jamar Rogers was one of the breakout stars of "The Voice" Season 2--and if the show rules that later took effect in Season 3 (no team quotas, iTunes sales carrying more weight) had existed that season, there's little doubt that he would've made it to the finale alongside his worthy Team Cee Lo comrade, Juliet Simms. Conspiracy theorists have even suggested that the rule changes of Season 3 were created simply to prevent contestants as talented as Jamar from being robbed in the future. It's not that implausible a theory, really. So, is it too late to demand a Season 2 vote recount?

But anyway, Jamar has kept plenty busy since making "The Voice's" top eight last year--touring, releasing four singles, prepping two EPs, and even playing a music cruise with his pals from his brief stint on "American Idol" Season 8, Kris Allen and Danny Gokey. Thankfully, he made time between gigs and recording sessions to stop by Yahoo! Music's HQ, too, to perform some of his new original tunes. Even just in a tiny room, accompanied by a single acoustic guitar, Jamar's amazing (wait for it) voice came shining through:

Jamar also chatted with Reality Rocks about his time on "The Voice," his time on "Idol," what he's been up to since, and how he's using his life experience (as a recovering drug addict living with HIV) to help others. It was one of the most in-depth interviews I've done in a while, and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did:

Kendrick Lamar Concert Shut Down at Staples Center - Yahoo! Crash Concerts

Kendrick Lamar fans didn't know what to expect when the "Swimming Pools" rapper tweeted that he would be performing a secret show on the corners of 12th and Figueroa in downtown Los Angeles ó directly across the street from the Staples Center, home court for the Los Angeles Lakers.

Considering this is the eve of Lamar's TDE/Aftermath/Interscope debut "good kid, m.A.A.d city," he is determined to make his Crash Concerts offering dope. "I wanted to do something special . . . that actually made a point, made a statement," he says during an exclusive interview with Yahoo!

"Better to do it in our hometown, right after the Laker game," he explains. "I've never done a surprise show like this."

The massive crowd spilled into the streets, exceeding the limits allowed by the city. After performing "Swimming Pools," "The Recipe," and a bonus from his "Section 80" release, the police disperse the crowd as a chopper hovers over. Yahoo! and Lamar make the evening news.
