I would assume next week.  They finished their auditions this past week, so whatever they are doing for their bootcamp will be this week.

That's what I was guessing but wasn't sure. I'll try to check in next week if that's true.

Jess Chalmers, Cynthia Negash, Chenai Boucher and Eli Parr

3 of the people that I don't like much were put on notice, and 2 of them were eliminated, and to me Billy were better than Jess, but not enough for me to complain about it lol. I liked the episode and all the results. Nothing disappointed me at all. I loved Jet's tone on that song even thou his voice cracked, and because of that, it was fair that he was put on notice, but he grew a lot on my list. 

 

Bethany is the only one on my top 16 who were put on notice, and I agreed, that song didn't work for her like it worked for the others.

 

Amy Reeves, Tyler Hammill, Kobe White, Imogen Spendlove were the ones who caught my attention tonight. They stood out to me.

TJ Zimba were my biggest disappointment, I didn't like his performance at all, and to me on that group only Kobe and Imogen deserved to go through.

I agreed with who went home but I would’ve sent Jess. I feel like she is still giving backup singer vibes

[searomordep]

Tomorrow there will be +3 eliminated and I would choose between Jess Chalmers, Jonathan Wells, Chenai Boucher and Prayer Corby. Maybe TJ Zimba if he didn't make up for last performance.

 

Anything out of this will be really sad for me to watch them leave.

What did you think of the performances

[searomordep]

Group 1, Jonathan surprised me here, his chest voice sounded really strong, but his falsetto is weak and is understandable that he was put on notice. I knew he wasn't going home cause on the sneak peek for the top 30 week, I saw him doing a solo performance. The girls were as good as expected.

 

Group 2 was crazy, perfect, nothing to add, 3 really individual and excellent artists. Kobi keeps growing on my preferences.

 

Group 3 was also good, but it was a tough spot to perform after the last group. Here it was 3 favorite artists doing a decent performance.

 

Group 4, I think the problem here was the song choice, it takes a big range to sing this song, so it's really hard for any man to sing it with a woman, cause their range won't be placed in the same scale. Jet definitely was out shined by the girls big voices.

 

Group 5, Jake was probably the most consistent voice here, but for some reason, since the Chorus Line I'm feeling him really generic. There are other guitar players, raspy voices that are showing more unique stuff, so I don't know if here can stand out. Jesse and Natasha wasn't the strongest here, but I see some artistry on them. I'm happy that we'll be allowed to watch their solo performance.

 

Group 6 it really wasn't good. To me, Chenai voice's matches her attitude, it's too aggressive to me. I think TJ solo part was really beautiful, he would do an amazing acoustic, intimate performance of that song. Gab, has an amazing instrument as his voice, but he needs to learn how to use it better, his audition was really strong but after that he couldn't show his uniqueness anymore.

 

Group 7, Jess is my least favorite singer left on the competition, but I think she was really lucky here, she was put in a group with 2 of my favorite voices and they chose a good song that allowed them to do an amazing job. The group deserved to go through together because of the performance, but I don't think she's on the level of the competition.

 

Group 8, it was good, but just it. Tyler is really special, a great guitar player, with an amazing voice and really creative on his arrangement choices. He always transform the songs that he sing in something different. Kiani here reminded me of how unique is her tone, she might surprise us on the competition.

 

Group 9, Denvah only gets better on each performance, there's no one like her, she has a place on the finals guaranteed if we base it on fairness. I could hear Bethany beautiful tone again here, I really think that she will shine when she get the power to choose her songs.  

 

Final decisions:

- Prayer as I anticipated, I imagined she could be eliminated. Good voice, but it's just that are other artists similar to her who seems more ready on the competition.

- As I said, Gab wasn't able to shine after his amazing audition. I understand his elimination. That makes him the first of my favorites to go out.

- I get that Jet is too young and his voice is not mature yet, but I don't know, to me this greenness in his voice is exactly what sounds really cool, and I wish we could see him perform solo, in the stage, with the audience. I think he would've done really good. 

 

I think the decisions keeps being really reasonable, but I would make it different. I wouldn't save Chenai and to be honest considering the people put on notice, I could even eliminate Isaac tonight. I have to agree with the judges, his lack of excitement with the competition annoys me a little, and I think it affects his performances.

[searomordep]

For the next 3 eliminations, tonight's decisions made it easier for me to choose lol

 

I would eliminate next Jess Chalmers and Chenai Boucher. Like the judges, I wanted to see Jonathan Wells performing solo on the stage, but if he didn't do some really special, I would put him on that next elimination with the girls.

 

I also wouldn't be surprised with the elimination of Jesse Lazaroo, Issac McCallum or Jake Carlson. I think they are all competing for the same spot as other stronger artists. Kiani, Bethany, Natasha and TJ are on my warning list, but I liked their voices tonight so I really want them to do good next and advance.

 

As for all the others, I don't think and I hope they're not in danger.

I don't think, at all. To me the male cast is much stronger. And by the public reaction at the comments, I believe it will be hard to take the favoritism from Ripley.

[searomordep]

- Chenai surprised me tonight, I really liked her performance, she deserved to go through. I think she should stick to this rock vibe, it matches her tone and attitude. 

 

- Each time I hear Denvah I get more in love with her individuality. She's such an unique artist. I hope she keeps choosing different and unexpected songs for her voice, cause it seems to fit anything.

 

- Jonathan always use his falsetto as if it was one of his strengths, but it's actually one of his weakness, it's flat, bad sustained, and doesn't sound good. His chest voice is actually pretty, but he really needs to have some training to improve his vocal habilites.

 

- With all respect for her as an artist, but I don't really know how the judges kept Jess till now, she's not at all on the same level as the rest of the cast. She's a good performer, but vocally it didn't work at all.

 

- Kyle is too rude, but he was right about Issac, it wouldn't be fair to put him straight through after that performance.

[searomordep]

To me, after tonight, Jonathan and Jess are easily the choices to go home. Let's see who completes the trio, but I guess probably someone from tomorrow performances, maybe Jesse.

issac will probably go home, he has been struggling and hasn't been better than his audition
