Winners from each week competed in the semi-finals and then the final; voting was done by the studio audience. R&B singer-songwriter and record producer R. Kelly won the prize before his stardom as a member of the group MGM (Mentally Gifted Men). The show lasted for one season.
Celebrity guests who appeared on the show include Whitney Houston, Patti LaBelle, Bill Cosby, MC Hammer, Michael McDonald, and Regina Belle.
