Vocal MasterClass Discussion For The Voice Season 14: The Knockouts Premiere

Picture Credit: NBC/TheVoice

This week on The Voice, the Top 12 artists will perform live for your votes.

The Voice airs on Monday, April 23rd and Tuesday, April 24th at 8:00 PM on NBC. On Tuesday’s results show, Maroon 5 will perform

And look what I found on Wikipedia? The results – which should not be known until tomorrow no? I love the screenshot feature on my iPad.

What say y’all? Am I having a senior moment or did someone infiltrate the The Voice computer system and pre- determine who the Instant Save performers would be? LOL

Enjoy the show everyone. I look forward to your comments and insights. Looks like you won’t have to bother voting. Ha!

  1. Re: Wikipedia – Anyone with Web access can edit Wikipedia. Because of that, my teachers would probably tell you it’s not a reliable source.

    Performances tonight – I’m finally picking some favorites now, spread across each team.

  2. But why would they have the names of the Bottom 2 published a day early? Let’s see what happens tomorrow.

  3. Oh wow! That’s crazy! Gosh, that makes you wonder if it really is rigged!!! I guess we will know tomorrow night. Is this supposedly the ranking order?

    I loved Kyla tonight; I didn’t care for Britton’s song choice, but I still like him a lot.

  4. There is a bit of hidden humor in the Wiki piece MCL. They have little Brenn, who turned 15 sometime this week, singing Marvin Gaye’s “Sexual Healing.” Pretty funny. Then it turns to wishful thinking at the bottom of the chart with Brenn singing for her life. Hmmm, anything could happen I guess.

    Yeah Vonnie, Kayla did have a good night.It’s good to see her confidence building as a front of the stage player. I think Blake is good at building people up.

    I also thought Brenn had a good night, not perfect but she has transitioned to live pretty well and that was a lot of song for her.

    Christina is someone I haven’t paid a lot of attention to but she was very good tonight.

    Pryor got back on track with a decent song choice compared to last week, but there is so much better material he could be doing with that voice, like some Van Morrison or Ray Charles etc.

    I was disappointed with both Britton and Jackie Foster this week. Neither lived up to expectation.

  5. Gene,

    I’m not usually one to like the big powerhouse voices, I usually go for the softer voices; but Kyla has so much texture and an almost Jazzy vibe to her voice. I thought she hands down won the night.

    Yeah, not sure what has happened to Britton, I think song choice, but it’s as if he peaked during knockouts. I don’t know all of the girls names yet, but there are a couple I thought did a decent job last night. I liked Pryor and for the first time, the cowboy on Kelly’s team.

    Haha, so are you saying the wiki is wishful thinking for someone? I certainly hope so, it’s bad enough thinking this show is rigged, but proof of that would close the doors!

  6. The moderators at Wikipedia have corrected the Wikipedia results information now.

    I looked at the article edit history. Here is why they made the correction: “Episode hasn’t aired, and no source cited for the information that was listed.”

  8. My guess is that there is no conspiracy at The Voice. Whoever posted the Wiki probably just used some names as place holders to be edited after the event. What was interesting to me is the song choice listed for Brenn. All the other contestants’ song choices seem to be correct. My guess is her choice wasn’t made public on time so the writer simply made one up and used a bit of humor in doing so.

    I’m still irritated that we are not getting credible Rock from Jackie the “Rocker,” or Soul from Brenn the “Soul” singer. Brenn actually had some Soul chops in the practice session but I didn’t hear it on stage.

    Idol Girl, who are the favorites that you have began to notice?

  9. I’m in agreement with Gene. I don’t think there’s a conspiracy.

    Some favorites so far:
    I like the country girl on Blake’s team. I like Brynn. I like Jackie the “Rocker”. I like Sharane.

  10. Aw, come on guys, there’s always room for a good conspiracy theory!

    Huh, there’s two Jackie’s? well, that explains a lot of my confusion! You may wonder (or maybe not) why I don’t know names…my husband thinks the remote has his name on it and fast forward is how we watch tv. So, I think the Jackie on Adams team is the one I like. The other Jackie is hip-boot girl and she’s on Alisha’s team, 🤔 right? Jeepies!!!

    I still do not have a favorite thus far!

  11. I would love to be a fly on the NBC/THEVOICE wall to see what has transpired over the last 24 hours. Lol. I am on Wiki a great deal and have never seen the Botton 2 published before the performance show. It is just left blank.

  13. Vonnie,
    What? There are two Jackies? Get out. GET OUT!!

    I think you like Jackie Face. She’s the one who obsesses over an injury she had to her face some years back in an auto accident. She’s perfectly lovely and should let it go. She’s coming along.

    I’ve been trying to love Hip Boot Jackie, and the boots are helping. but I’m not feeling her rock and roll yet.

    The problem I’m having with all of the contestants is that I just am not moved to do business with any of them yet.I did buy Brenn’s latest track. The iTunes version was pretty good. No one is setting to iTunes world on fire yet. Brenn has finally moved into the lead at 38th on the chart. ahead of Kayla at 39th and Britton at 40th. Yikes!

    If I lived on the left coast (fat chance) I would probably be p.o.ed about the voting system for this round but I think that the reality of it is that people vote for who they already like, not who performed well that night. The main issue for them is the short time window allowed for voting that you would not be aware of without watching the show. One might assume that The Voice doesn’t care what they think. That may be due to lack of support from the area in past seasons.

  14. Yet again, it’s going to be another season where music by former contestants isn’t promoted.

  16. Kelly made a horrible song choice for her team’s group song. She was the only one that the song suited.

    Blake has always been generous when he performs with his team. I would say that he was the least suited to tonight’s song choice and there was a meaty part for each of his team members, especially Pryor. If there was a fault with his choice it was that at times the girls seemed like back up singers.

  17. Huh, no conspiracy theory after all…or, is this just the cover up, they had to actually use the votes from last night instead!?!?!?!

    I haven’t watched tonight’s show only the end, I liked DR, I think given the right songs he could have done really well. I wish him well.

  31. The Twitter results were shown during the commercial break and Rayvon was beating DR big time. After the commercial break, Adam was giving words of advice/encouragement to Rayvon and said something to the effect of, “Stop crying, man, you’re not going anywhere!”
