With so many fairy godmothers working overtime to make sure that their charge wins the prize, it's often down to an indefinable "oomph" that vaunts one pumpkin carriage past the rest. Take Eboni Foster as a case in point: She's got the looks, the pipes, and the credentials (having played with Nuttin' Nyce), but no curtain call. Just What You Want is a good R&B effort, but one ultimately found wanting.
