Taylor J. is music director at KSLZ–FM (Z107.7), spoke with the St. Louis Post Dispatch about the trouble most of the ‘American Idol’ stars are having trying to break onto the radio market, except for Kelly Clarkson. Regarding the singles from Clay Aiken and Ruben Studdard, Taylor J. says, “We’re not touching those songs. That Ruben song is good, but it completely doesn’t work with what we’re doing. Neither does the Clay song. The songs aren’t compatible with everything else that’s going on.” And Kelly’s on screen partner Justin Guarini? “It was really unfortunate timing for him. The movie bombed, and, the same week, they wanted his song to break.” She was also disappointed with RCA’s choice of first singles for Ruben and Clay. “The singles were disappointing. We were hoping what was produced out of the second ‘Idols’ would be closer to Kelly,” she said. “It’s beyond me why the producers and record companies aren’t trying to do the same thing.”

I haven’t heard Clay Aiken single on the radio yet but the only time I hear Ruben Studdard song on the radio is only on the RNB station. They don’t even play flying with out wing they just play the other song that is on his cd. But from what I understand Clay did had the number one single for a week or something like that. I feel bad for that Justin guy. I haven’t heard any of his single on the radio. I listen to one of his song off his CD the song written by Brain McKnight condition of my heart and that song is awesome. If and when I do buy Justin CD it will be for that song. I only heard the radio play Justin single one time on the radio and that was last night.
