This was a great song choice, but again, I feel like there were a few missed opportunities here, but this time it could also allow for a different path being taken in the future if Ariana decides to take it.
Right now I feel like you, The Winner, are being portrayed in a foggy light, because I feel like you could’ve done a much more POWERFUL rendition of this song that could’ve went in a progressive line with your audition, but it’s interesting you took a more artistic approach that can almost make you into a more rocky alternative vocalist if you wanted, or if Ariana wanted. I’m unsure if that was your objective, but this entire vibe was really pointing in a more alternative direction, and that’s interesting.
Nike, vocally I’d say arguably you were stronger than The Winner HERE, plus as a male vocalist that’s definitely something that could give you an even bigger edge, but I feel as though coaching wise, I wouldn’t know if I’d pick you or not, as it’s more black and white.
It depends how Ariana wants to sculpt her team, because both of you are VERY intriguing now moreso than you were before, I’d say. One of you were more consistent, Nike, but like consistency could be viewed as predictable if it continues in this direction, but that is not an issue NOW.
This was definitely a battle I had a lot to SAY about, but it’s pretty even in my opinion, I’m interested in how Ari decides.
