So no. To be fair, flirting with Gwen was probably not the best move to make if you're trying to appeal to Blake's country fanbase lol Link to post Share on other sites

True, but most of the time, Blake is only in the mood for country males. Recent seasons in which he wasn't was only S17, along with S14 and S13 to an extent with Kyla and Chloe. But Pryor and Red still had to be stopped. Blake always takes at least a country male with him to the Lives, and recently he takes 3 in his final live teams! Lmao, he just wants to win now and doesn't care about unique or powerful artists like Kyla and Chloe as mentioned. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Lmao, he just wants to win now and doesn't care about unique or powerful artists like Kyla and Chloe as mentioned. It’s not like he has had someone like them since S14. When Blake has someone really good, he makes sure they advance (Sid this season was an exception for me, but he didn’t stand out as much as Chloe or Kyla). Something I have noticed is that the quality of Blake’s teams usually has something to do with how much I enjoy a season. When Blake’s team is tragic (like last season) I usually end up disliking the season, because his artists stay for a while. Edited December 29, 2020 by Daillon 2 Link to post Share on other sites

True, since Blake makes up most of the Final 4/5 placements, we beg him to have great artists so that they could get far, as opposed to another Gyth Rigdon/Todd Tilghman/Jim Carter/Chris Kroeze. Along with a 2nd(3rd for S16) finalist occupying a spot Dexter Roberts/Kirk Jay/Ian Flannigan/Andrew Sevener. If Taryn and Sid were his Top 2(S19), then it would have been a slayage final 5 tbh.

Taryn/Carter/Desz/Holiday/Sid(oh, if only this was the Finale) Yes, and Blake can only pick artists who choose him. If the only people who choose Blake are country artists, you’re going to get a bunch of country artists in the final. If Anna had chosen Blake my guess is he would have carried her at least to lives. Keep in mind the audience (and Blake) both love country though, so even if Blake carries no country artists, you’ll still get Jake hoot. And even if Blake carries a non-country artist, you’ll probably get a country artist too (Red and Spensha). This is partially why the lack of female country/Americanna singers is often frustrating. We seem to get maybe 1-2 in the audition pool vs 10 guys. Leaving Blake’s teams very male heavy Link to post Share on other sites
Misirlou 2,689 Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 The thing is, while obviously Blake loves his country artists, he does tend to have a soft spot for non country people who took a risk and picked him AKA Sissaundra, Paxton, Courtney, TSoul, Chloe, Kyla, Ricky, Toneisha, etc. He makes sure that they advance as far as they can, pulling for them in his comments, song choices, and of course his huge fanbase does the work. If they have a country artist on the same team, that´s a tough road, but they can still make it far due to Blake´s support. What I´m saying is that, let´s say I´m a non country artist and Blake turns for me. If I wanted to go far on the show, I´d pick him no hesitation. 3 Link to post Share on other sites

QueenCami 2,484 Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 I had a dream last night about Cami, Julia, Taryn and some unmemorable guy* being in an instant save together. Julia and Cami slayed, and I don't remember listening through Taryn's performance but she likely did, and I was sitting there hoping that Cami would win the IS because she clearly had a really good performance, and then the unmemorable guy won. So sad that Minivan votes even during my dreams *I checked the wiki to look through the guys this season and none of their names clicked lol. For some reason I thought it was Ben, but I also remember being surprised that the unmemorable guy won because he wasn't minivan bait, so perhaps not. 4 Link to post Share on other sites

I was just relistening to alexa capelli's KO today, and I was wondering how popular she was on IDF in season 14. I really love her (I wish we could see her full solo performance of Pray!), but I'm curious as to what people here thought (and now think!). What are your guys' thoughts?

The only performance I remember from her is her studio with Hannah Goebel Well, I also remember that I like Lisa Ramey's It Hurt So Bad more than hers' As you can see, she felt rather forgettable to me. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
