Knockouts Round 1: Team Snoop’s Austyns Stancil vs Christina Eagle vs Jake Tankersley

Austyns: Luther Vandross‘ “Dance with My Father”
Christina Eagle: Maren Morris‘ “My Church”
Jake Tankersley: Luke Combs‘ “Going, Going, Gone.”

Winner: Austyns Stancil

Snoop said: “Austyns was the winner based on spirit, personality and how he composed himself to hold in all of that pain and all of that loss to give us a great performance. You can’t stop emotion when emotion hits you. Tears start falling, that’s real music, that’s real singing. Performing a song that has nothing to do with the loss of someone, imagine what he’s going to give me.”

Then Christina got a Save from Snoop and Steals from Reba, Michael and Gwen. She chose to stay on Team Snoop.

Save: Christina Eagle

Snoop said: “Christina Eagle is a superstar. I think America would love to see her on my team because it’s unpredictable. You went from one chair [Snoop was the only one to turn in the Blinds] to four chairs. That’s how much you’ve grown. She had my Save from the moment she stepped on stage. I knew I could pick one and Save one.”

Then Jake got Steals from Reba and Gwen.

Steal: Jake Tankersley

Gwen said: “What I like about Jake is he feels genuine in all the things you like about a country singer. But also, somebody who would take such a risk and pick me over Reba, maybe it’s meant to be and I’m going to be able to do some great work with him.

Knockouts Round 2: Team Reba’s Adam Bohanan vs Cassidy Lee vs Jaukeem Fortson

Adam: Black Pumas “Colors”
Cassidy: Bonnie Raitt’s “Love Me Like a Man”
Jaukeem: King & Country’s “God Only Knows”

Winner: Adam Bohanan

Reba said: “Adam is a force of nature. He’s a great guitar player. He has a great attitude and then he opens his mouth and it’s this amazing voice.”

Steal: Jaukeem Fortson

Michael said: “I stole Jaukeem because when I was a kid, people saw the potential in me and loved me enough to give me that shot. I love that I can do that for people. I think he earned it today.

Knockouts Round 3: Team Gwen’s Camryn Brooks vs Deon Jones vs Jose Luis

Camryn: P!nk’s “Glitter in the Air”
Deon Jones: Tina Turner’s “Nutbush City Limits”
Jose: Ariana Grande’s “We Can’t Be Friends (Wait For Your Love)”

Winner: Jose Luis

Gwen said: “I had to go with Jose Luis because he is undeniable. It’s like one of those singers like “how are you real? You’re so composed, you’re emotional.” I just want to see what he does next.”

Knockouts Round 4: Team Bublé’s Cameron Wright vs Sloane Simon (Note: Michael only has two artists because Tanner Frick left The Voice after rehearsals)

Cameron: Marvin Gaye & Tammy Terrell’s “You’re All I Need to Get By”
Sloane Simon: Olivia Rodrigo’s “Catch Me Now”

Winner: Cameron Wright

Michael said: “I picked Cameron because their vocal performance was professional. The name of this show is The Voice and I didn’t think it would be fair if they didn’t have a seat going forward.”

Save: Sloane Simon

Michael said: “I picked Sloane because she is a star in the making. She has a really sweet voice. I think she’s capable of tackling different genres. I just love that I can be a small part of it.”

The Voice airs Monday night at 8 p.m. ET/PT and Tuesday night at 9 p.m. ET/PT on NBC. Streaming next day on Peacock.
