With the Blind Auditions over, The Voice teams have been set. Coaches Reba McEntire, Niall Horan, Snoop Dogg, and Michael Bubl\u00e9 are each leading groups of incredible Artists, but they\u2019ve got their eyes on who they want to steal. And they know the Battle rounds are on!<\/p>\n

Unlike in previous seasons, when Coaches divided their own teams into pairs for the Battle rounds, this season, the Artists will be pairing themselves up, forming unexpected couplings for duets. The Coaches are still in charge of choosing the songs, though, creating a unique and interesting challenge: finding songs that work for both singers.<\/p>\n

After each vocal Battle, the Coach must choose which Artist will advance to the next round of the competition, a.k.a the Knockouts, and who will go home. That is, unless they are saved or stolen. This season during the Battles, each Coach has one Steal and one Save. By the end of the Battle round, each Coach will have six Artists on their team.<\/p>\n

The Battle rounds are so different from the Blind Auditions on The Voice<\/h2>\n

\u201cThe part I love about the duets\u201d, Coach Snoop Dogg explained as the Battle rounds got underway, is \u201cthe sisterhood, brotherhood, companionship.\u201d However, he noted, \u201cAt the same time, you see certain elements of \u2018Wait a minute, this is a Battle!’\u201d He also expressed how excited he was to keep deserving Artists around even if they didn\u2019t win their Battle. \u201cThank you gangster Holy Ghost that one Steal and one Save is upon each Coach,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Horan pointed out that the Artists should always be working to improve, saying, \u201cYou get to see what people have done since the Blind Auditions. Whether they\u2019ve stepped up or not.\u201d Bubl\u00e9 agreed, adding, \u201cI wanna be blown away by the Artists that execute some of the notes I\u2019ve given.\u201d<\/p>\n

McEntire put it simply and honestly: \u201cThere\u2019s gonna be a lot of talented people that have to go home. Cream\u2019s rising to the top.\u201d<\/p>\n

Who are the Battle Advisors for The Voice Season 28?<\/h2>\n

So much of the fun of the Battle rounds comes from the Battle Advisors, mega-stars who assist the Coaches in helping the Artists develop their performances. Last season, Wicked star Cynthia Erivo joined Coach Michael Bubl\u00e9, Coach Adam Levine enlisted Kate Hudson, first-time Coach Kelsea Ballerini got Little Big Town, and Coach John Legend\u2019s Battle Advisor was Coco Jones.<\/p>\n

For Season 28, another batch of exciting celebrities is in the house. Coach Snoop\u2019s Battle Advisor is \u201cGood as Hell\u201d hit-maker Lizzo, new to The Voice family. Kelsea Ballerini is back as Battle Advisor to Team Bubl\u00e9, so #Bublerini returns. Former The Voice Coach Nick Jonas joins Team Reba, basically a two-for-one special in terms of Coaches. Finally, best-selling singer-songwriter Lewis Capaldi advises Team Niall; this is Capaldi\u2019s first time on the show, but he seems right at home.<\/p>\n
