As we approach the thrilling end of The Voice Season 28, it’s hard to believe how quickly the time has flown since the Blind Auditions. With only two episodes left before we crown a new champion, viewers find themselves at the edge of their seats, eager to see who will take home the coveted title. In the world of competitive singing, the competition is fierce, yet the camaraderie among the four Coaches — Reba McEntire, Michael Bublé, Snoop Dogg, and Niall Horan — remains palpable.
This season, the Coaches’ connection has grown even deeper. McEntire shared an interesting tradition: before each filming, they come together to say a prayer. “Snoop instigated that,” she noted, expressing her admiration for both the talent showcased and her fellow Coaches. “I am blown away every season,” she said, highlighting Bublé as “a good buddy” and affectionately referring to Horan as her “little brother.” This combined warmth and competitiveness enhances the viewing experience, setting a positive atmosphere for both the participants and audience alike.
Enhanced by heartfelt moments, the show’s emotional core was brilliantly showcased when Snoop Dogg rushed to McEntire’s side with a tissue during a tear-jerking performance, only to later find himself in tears as well. These spontaneous displays of empathy between the Coaches underline the profound impact that music has on everyone involved, further amplifying the show’s narrative of transformation and connection.

Throughout the season, the mantra “it’s not always about winning” resonates deeply within the show’s fabric. As Snoop Dogg wisely conveyed to an Artist who faced early rejection, “Sometimes that L is a lesson. It’s not always a loss. It’s a lesson.” This perspective encourages aspiring musicians to appreciate growth and learning, irrespective of immediate success.
