Jamie Foxx's quest for musical stardom got a boost Saturday at the 37th Annual NAACP Image Awards, where the Oscar-winning actor was picked as best male musical artist.

Foxx, who received an Oscar last year for portraying Ray Charles in the movie "Ray," has begun performing tracks from his album "Unpredictable."

"It's good to be surrounded by black folks," Foxx said. "Black folks are music."

Foxx said after the show that music was "what I always wanted to do."

Mariah Carey was poised to keep her comeback going Saturday as a leading contender for the 37th Annual NAACP Image Awards, including best song and album.

Carey, Kanye West and Alicia Keys had four nominations each going into the awards honoring achievement by blacks in movies, television, music and literature, while Terrence Howard had two acting nominations for the films "Crash" and "Hustle & Flow."

"Crash," about racial tensions in Los Angeles, led movie contenders with six nominations, including best picture, four of the five supporting-actor slots for Howard, Chris "Ludacris" Bridges, Don Cheadle and Larenz Tate and for Thandie Newton as supporting actress.

Other best-picture nominees included "Hustle & Flow," in which Howard plays a pimp and drug peddler trying to start a rap-music career, "Coach Carter," "Diary of a Mad Black Woman" and "Hitch."
