rockerannah Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 Why is Quintavious not in the top 14? I preferred him to Roman or O'Dell. I had a feeling my girl Jennifer was going, and Mackenzie I can understand, but Quintavious..... ouch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fortunately for her, she was safe so it didn’t matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually thought Quintavious would be going last week with a Carrie Underwood song, so I was surprised when he had a fine performance. He was the least featured of the three male gospel singers, so he would have had to outperform Odell and Roman in order to move on, and he didn’t do so.

I could listen to him sing the Carrie song and the Tori Kelly song on repeat. But I understand what you're saying for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

m1key Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 the annoying thing about HoF night is that is focuses on older/dated songs. i'm hoping that for Billboard #1 Hits night on Monday, contestants are encouraged to do some more modern hits to balance that out. i know it just came out but i think "we can't be friends (wait for your love)" by Ariana Grande could lend itself really well to a beautiful stripped down guitar or piano arrangement.

peachfuz Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 (edited) hot take: i know people are looking at the r&b males in the top 20 and saying we only "needed" one but i think anyone who's an advocate for good singers doing well on this show should be a little more outraged about odell, quintavious, and maybe even mackenzie getting the cut compared to some of the people advancing this episode. here's a thought: maybe we only "needed" one guy singing country in the top 14, too. the voters messed up BIG TIME and the judges weren't even able to slap a band-aid big enough to make up for it. its not a surprise, but its a HUGE disappointment, especially after the voters more or less got it right with the first cuts from hawaii Edited April 16 by peachfuz 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah. Don’t do “Dancing Queen”, or at least don’t do it the way that Marybeth did it. If you want to do it, make it a fun dance number and pull out all the stops! But preferably don’t do it. 31 minutes ago, wildestinvegas said: artists inducted into the HOF. i hope abi does her creep cover If Creep was inducted, I hope she sings it too.

And while part of me agrees about Quintavious, I never expected him to get to the Top 14, even as a Wildcard. But I disagree about Mackenzie. It was his time.

I thought all the guys were gospel singers not R&B singers? Secondly anyone that is an "advocate for good singers" should not be outraged that Mackenzie got cut. Also it's not really a hot take to say here that the top 14 only needs 1 male country singer most people here would agree with that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was one of my faves from the beginning but I am not outraged or real upset about him going because I know he wasn't the strongest singer etc. I would agree those 3 guys were gospel singers but there is a lot of gospel/r&b/soul singers and that is definitely how I viewed the three of them.

Also it's not really a hot take to say here that the top 14 only needs 1 male country singer most people here would agree with that. the hot take is that i think odell and quintavious both getting cut is much more of a travesty for the long run of this season than i think we might realize at this point, not necessarily the country guy thing; that was more just me bitching a little but i digress. i only mentioned mackenzie because, in my honest opinion, if the judges REALLY wanted to have a pop singing guy in the top 14, mackenzie would've been a better pick than jordan. i would never have put mackenzie in the top 14 either way, but at least mackenzie has a stronger body of work than jordan has up to this point. it was an injustice either way, but, to me, it wasn't even an injustice that made sense. either way, i have a bad feeling about the next couple of weeks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carrie_On Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 I just don’t think we needed three gospel singers in the competition who were gonna shout “Hallelujah!” at the end of every performance. It was impactful when Roman did it on Sunday because they had just played the intro package of his dad talking about Roman surviving the coma. Odell and Quintavious were better singers than Roman but I think he was the most believable as far as “getting caught up in the spirit.” I loved Odell when he was singing songs like “Bring It On Home To Me.” Why he decided to start singing outdated Bruno Mars songs and gospel tunes, I’m not sure, but it didn’t work for him. As for the country guys, let’s face it. Triston is gonna be around a long time because he’s a sweet, likable fifteen-year-old who loves his mom, wears a cowboy hat, and sings country songs well. That’s like being a cross between David Archuleta and Scotty McCreery on steroids lol. Will is just a very solid authentic country singer-songwriter and country music is a very popular genre whether it’s your cup of tea or not. Blake Shelton would’ve crapped his pants to have Will on his team on The Voice. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TeamAudra Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 Will, on his live, said he lost his voice last week, and didn’t get it back until that last minute. I’m thinking the fact that he was doing lives every night, singing for 2+ hours might have had something to do with it. That’s what he’s doing right now, too. He claims he’s doing it to get his voice back on track, whatever that means. Vocal rest might be a good idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
