If Only for One Night

As if afraid that two weeks of country hybrids made him seem like a novelty act, Chikezie tries to show us he's a real singer. And "real singer" here = Luther. Nothing particularly wrong with his performance, but the Vandross song doesn't really give him the chance to cut loose that he needs to be memorable. Chikezie doesn't have much margin for error, and he may be in trouble this week.
