Queen Latifah Lands a Four-Chair Turn on The Voice
7 Oct
Summary
- Lillie Kolich earned a four-chair turn with her cover song.
- Queen Latifah secured Lillie Kolich for her team.
- Battle Rounds commenced with coaches making tough decisions.

The Blind Auditions for The Voice's milestone 30th season wrapped up Tuesday, with coaches finalizing their teams. Lillie Kolich, a 25-year-old songwriter from New Mexico now based in Nashville, captured significant attention.
Kolich's stripped-back cover of Sombr's "Back to Friends" earned her a four-chair turn from Kelly Clarkson, Adam Levine, Riley Green, and Queen Latifah. Despite competitive pitches from Clarkson, Levine, and Green, Kolich ultimately chose Queen Latifah.
Latifah's decision was cemented by her belief in Kolich's ability to transform a popular song and win the competition. The episode immediately transitioned into the Battle Rounds.
Riley Green initiated the battles by pairing baker Brandy Neelly against sisters Ferryn and Brinkley. Grammy winner Carly Pearce served as the Battle advisor for this round. Green advanced Ferryn and Brinkley, with Neelly not receiving a lifeline from other coaches.
The Voice airs Mondays and Tuesdays at 8 p.m. ET on NBC, with next-day streaming on Peacock. Battle performances continue on Monday, October 12.
