Pinoy Idol judge Ogie Alcasid will produce an album for Robbie and Penelope and Kid.

Pinoy Idol judge Ogie Alcasid believes that three eliminated contestants in the Pinoy Idol deserves a spot in the music industry. With their talent, Ogie has decided to produce an album for Robbie Navarro, Kid Camaya and Penelope.

This will be a three-in-one album where each singer will be contributing four songs each. It is a good news for Robbie and Penelope but for Kid, i have some doubt.
