8/27: Atlanta group Kazual competing tonight in “America’s Got Talent”

Although NBC’s “America’s Got Talent” hosted auditions at Cobb Energy Performing Arts Centre in March, not a single Atlanta act made it to the final 40 from those sessions.

One Atlanta singing quartet has made the cut, but the group actually applied through a special MySpace audition. Kazual, three brothers and a cousin, moved to Atlanta four years ago from Columbus, GA but had yet to get a big break until now.

The group impressed the show’s producers with an a capella version of the Backstreet Boys’ “Inconsolable,” which can also be seen on YouTube.

So what do you think? Are they worth the $1 million prize?

Unlike many other acts, Kazual will have to compete for votes Wednesday night (8 to 10 p.m.) with almost no airtime up to this point, a major disadvantage to get to the next round.

“It’s going to be pretty important to actually knock it out of the park because people haven’t seen us,” said EJay (real name: Eugene Burt). The other three are DMac, Playboi, and Lil Gabe.

Here are the few seconds they got on the show itself doing “In the Still of the Night.”

Why do black people seem to always have their picture taken with an angry look on their face? It would seem they would be happy after just signing a huge record deal. And hasn’t the backward/sideways hat with the flat bill about worn out now? And hasn’t the baggie pants around the knees gotten a bit tired by now, I mean how comfotable is it to constantly have to hold your pants up as you walk around?And what is it with the english language, why has it been altered ie: axt instead of ask? And he do dat goot, instead of he does that good? Just a few questions I had, didn’t mean to ramble.
