I think Beyonce would simply be an obvious choice, seeing as she has creole/new orleans lineage and can sing. However i dont like the idea of her in it.

My choices would be:

Raven-Symone: she has a great voice for voice over, also has a great range and can sing.

Jurnee Smollett: she was in eve's bayou, a film about creole blacks and most recently roll bounce, she can sing has has a real creole background.

Why is Randy Newman composing this? Alan menken would be the best choice to give it that real magic disney feel. I dont wanna groove to randy's annoying music.
Does anyone really still listen to any of his soundtracks? i know the music from the little mermaid and that ilk still gets played regularly in my house, just look at the youtube viewings of the alan menken songs. people love them.
