I think Rhydian definitely has potential.

When I said I don't get the appeal, I mean I'm surprised people out there actually like him. The dude is not the norm. First time I saw a video he creeped me out a little. But as a singer he's good.

I see why Jim reached out to be on the album (if that's the story) As a performer, he's over the top. Which was Meat's appeal...so many years ago.
