MulherPepita Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 WHAT A FLAWLESS AUDITION! His voice sounds like a mix of Matthew Schuler with DeAndre NicoΒ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VoiceFan2577 Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 I have to say Andrewβs musical instinct is phenomenal. He really added a lot to the melody of the song in a way that was surprising and different. He made an overdone song sound fresh and I applaud that. Great leak imoΒ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jork Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 Re: Igbokidi, anyone who chooses that song to sing in these shows usually will have a moment of some sort. It's just a song people make evocative and emotional in these shows. Compared to his peers, Igbokidi was way too melismatic on the low notes and too grounded/not daring enough with the upper register. It's pleasant and all, but if they ask him for another song, or a switchup, I don't think he brings that much more to the table.Β Β That being, 4 offers for med school as a college senior is a way better path than the Voice. Could be set for life rather than just bobbling in a sea of anonymous music people, so this shouldn't even be a choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arsh Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 One thing I've noticed up to now is that Gwen is overacting. She is in her sixth season, and I have never noticed her doing anything overly in the earlier seasons. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hsamid Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 Β Dude can clearly run with the best of them but I'm not feeling this auditiom. Some runs sounded good and well placed, while others went on too long and strayed from the melody to the point of not sounding melodic at all. Which detracts from the emotional aspect that makes this song impactful. Β There's also a certain breathiness to his voice on some parts that make it sound like he's out of breath rather than it being intentional.Β Β There's no denying his talent though.

RTV Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 Considering leaks, episode structure, favorable performance order, chair turns, and blocks, it's evident that TPTB are spotlighting Camila and that Morgan is TCO. Β Morgan, an experienced powerhouse singer with crossover appeal, seems positioned to be the winner of season 22. She was leaked, opened the premiere, turned four chairs, was a coach block, joined the new coach's team, and never needed a save or steal. Morgan has been well received on social media and is leading YouTube views. We'll have to see whether her chances will be diminished by age, gender, genre, and/or coach choice. Β As a good male country singer on Team Blake, Bryce is likely to advance to the final. He is slightly disadvantaged by not turning four chairs, not being leaked, not appearing on either the premiere or third episode, and not opening or closing. If sources are correct about Bryce being Blake's battle save, that's another impediment to winning. He also has less industry experience than Morgan. Β Brayden has been singing for two years while also pursuing three sports. His biggest hurdle is a lack of performance experience. Although only turning one chair could be a slight disadvantage, being a cute teen guy on Team Blake is probably beneficial. An obvious growth arc would be helpful for votes. Β I think Kimβor maybe Omarβwill be John's frontrunner. Both of them are experienced singers, turned four chairs, and won their battle and knockout. I expected Kim to be leaked and to appear in the first or third episode. Β Gwen's frontrunner is yet to be determined. Β I made notes for the Top 16 and for contestants who opened or closed episodes. Β Episode 1 Morgan (leak; 4-chair; Camila blocked Gwen; Team Camila; won B and KO) Omar (4-chair; Team John; won B and KO) Ian Tiana Emma Brooke Orlando Alexis David Jay JJ Kate cliffhanger (3-chair) Β Episode 2 Kate continued (Team Blake; won B; lost KO to Bryce; double steal; Team Camila over John) Reina (2-chair; Team Camila over Gwen; won B; lost KO to Eric) Bryce (3-chair; Team Blake; lost B to The Dryes; saved; won KO) KoKo Alyssa (leak; 2-chair; Team Gwen over Camila; won B and KO) Devix (3-chair; Team Camila; won B and KO) Chello Kevin (4-chair; Gwen blocked John; Team Blake; won B; lost KO to Bodie; double steal; Team Gwen over Camila) Sadie SHEj Brayden (1-chair; Team Blake; won B and KO) Peyton (3-chair; John blocked Blake; Team John; won B; lost KO to Parijita) Β Episode 3 (performance order unknown) Andrew (leak; 4-chair; Team Camila; won B; lost KO to Devix) Cara The Dryes Madison Morgan T Β 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anybody354 Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 Just saw Andrewβs audition. I was floored. I love his rich, deep tone, and his west-African influences. His version was as good as Ryleighβs (whose version I loved). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
