Yonique Blows the Judges Away!!
December 12, 2008
 Yonique Buchanan pulled it off  again. On Sunday December 7,  2008, Yonique stamped her  dominance once more on CVM  TV’s Lime Faith Talent Search  Gospel Competition. Yonique  made it to the top eight in the  competition. For the elimination  show the day before, Yonique  could hardly speak, owing to  extreme hoarseness. Questions  were raised as to how she would  be able to perform but on D-day, with much prayer and a little medicinal help, she poured her heart into her performance and did not disappoint.

Yonique’s song “Child’s Cry,” had a cameraman, the producer, members of the audience and even the judge, Keisha, crying. The song - inspired by “Silence of the Lambs” a CVM TV documentary on violence against children -  pulled at the heartstrings of every individual in studio. Thunderous applause and cheers could be heard at the end of Yonique’s emotional performance. When it was time for the judges’ comments Keisha was too overwhelmed to go first. Guest judge, Jason Mighty, said Yonique is an “excellent writer” and “the world will not be able to contain where she will go.” Yonique beamed when he disclosed that he was looking for a writer and would be grateful if she could write some songs for him. Darren started a rain of tears for Yonique when he said that life would be unfair if she did not win because she was the best in the competition, and none of the other competitors could “walk in her seventeen-year-old shoes.”  Keisha was still rendered speechless through her own flood of tears and had to join Yonique on stage in an emotional embrace before she could continue.

Most would agree that it was truly a blessed experience. As Yonique continues to move and inspire people with her message, souls will undoubtedly come to the knowledge of the truth in Christ Jesus. After all, isn’t that the purpose of it all? Good going Yonique!
