Season 29 will feature a slew of new format changes that will surely shake up the competition. From the Coaches competing for the most 3-Chair Turns to a Super Steal rule in Battles, you’ve never watched a Voice season like this.
Speaking to NBC Insider, Coach Legend opened up about why he enjoys being a Coach so much. ”I love that we get to be surrounded by so much talent and it’s really inspiring, truthfully,” he said. “I learn so much from being on this show. I learn from coaching. I learn from the interaction I have with these Artists, and it’s very renewing because, you know, I’ve been making records for, like, 20 years now and to be around Artists that have that hunger and that excitement is very renewing for me, and I love that experience.”
Legend also loves that the show gives him work-life balance. “I also love that, you know, I live here in Los Angeles, I have four kids. It’s nice to work at home, basically, you know?” he explained. “And [to] be able to take my kids to school in the morning and then go to work, but honestly, the inspiration that I get from these Artists every single time is very renewing for me, and it doesn’t get old.”
