 Jamar Rogers: The Story Behind the Voice -- A Blog Entry by Robert Breining (February 10, 2012)
"If you watched The Voice this week then you were probably moved by Jamar Rogers' story and his talent. ... I admire Jamar for being who he is. Sometimes it takes us, people living with HIV, a long time to find self acceptance again. You see the reason I felt so connected to Jamar isn't only because he is HIV+. He is also a recovering addict, like myself. He is a true inspiration."
