Ever since I first saw him at the Seattle audition, I knew I'd be a long term fan. I'm talking Kelly Clarkson/Clay Aiken long term fan (I'm a huge fan of theirs too). Something about his style, looks, and best of all, personality made me love this guy and want to follow his career. I knew he would be a big hit. If not with the rest of America, at least in my heart that is obsessed with music. The fact that this man sings, writes, and beatboxes, is amazing to me. Now, I do have a wide variety of taste in music, but not so much rap or hip hop. This man, Blake Lewis, is the only PERSON in the music industry that has me loving hip hop as much as a do now.

Bothell is home to a true, awesome-rounded artist.
