Javier Colon Winner Of The Voice

The completes it's first season and has selected a winner in Javier Colon whom is well deserving of such an honor as he does posses a very impressive voice that him earned him some comparisons to the likes of Brian Mcknight, Babyface, and Kenny Lattimore.



While Javier Colon is no amateur, this award should help to propel his singing career as The Voice continues to gain success.  Javier Colon has released several albums that displayed his amazing voice and talents as a song writer, performer, and businessman. 



However the were only marginally received in the extremely competitive business of entertainment.   His 2003 debut album, [6] self-titled album on Capitol Records. His first single, entitled "Crazy", debuted at #95 on Billboard Hot 100 and reached #42 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart.[7] The second single, "Beautiful U R", did not have the same commercial success as his first release.


On March 7, 2006 - Three years after his self-titled debut, Javier released his second album Left of Center.[8] The album title was used to demonstrate that Javier was not like the rest of the present Contemporary R&B artists. Javier did keep to his main R&B/Neo-soul genre, but again mixed in other styles and genres. Three singles from album were released: "Indecent Proposal", "Dance for Me", and "The Answer is Yes". None of them had any major success, and the album only reached #37 on Billboard's R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart. Like Javier, Left of Center had minimal artist features, namely just fellow R&B artist Anthony Hamilton who appeared on the song "Count On Me". Although the album was not successful commercially, multiple reviews praised Javier for his unique style and willingness to do his own thing.

On August 3, 2010 - This six-song EP entitled "The Truth" [9] was released on Javier's own label. In the Album Notes for the EP at CD Baby, Javier is quoted as saying, "The Truth-Acoustic EP is part 1 of a larger project that I've been working on for over 3 years. I've taken a few songs that will be on my upcoming album Ok... Here's The Truth [10] and recorded them acoustically for this EP."



But from here on out Javier Colon will always be known as the winner of the inaugural season of The Voice.  It's always good to be number one.  He sure to be asked to come back next season to pass on his title their next winner and a possibly a few performances.  It just doesn't get much better.




The Voice was given a renewal for a second season earlier this year before completing it's first season and is considered with it's more than 11 million viewers to be a success.  It's under clear if the judges will return for the next season.  If the celebrity coaches decide not to return it will no doubt a monumental task to find a group of celebrities that will be equivalent the current group that can engage the audience and maintain the shows success.


Kudos to both Javier Colon winner of the inaugural season of The Voice and to NBC for bringing us The Voice and last but not least Mark Burnett and the features celeb coaches Blake Shelton, Adam Levine, Christina Aguilera and Cee Lo Green.
