The Voice Nigeria is the Nigerian franchise of the TV series The Voice. It is a singing competition that features music enthusiasts and professional performers. Since its first edition in 2016 in Nigeria, the show has become the biggest rival to the Nigerian Idol. It has also produced many talents and celebrated artistes in the country and Africa at large.

Blinds

This is the beginning of where coaches would have to build their team which should consist of 6 talents.

As the name implies, at this stage, the coaches’ chairs are turned towards the audience while the talent perform, if any of the coaches finds interest in the talent, he/she would have to hit the buzzer (red button) while their chair turns to face the talents. If there is more than one interested coach, the talent will have to select whose team he/she would want to belong, after all interested coaches pitch for the talent.

Live shows

After the battle rounds comes the Live Shows. In this stage, each of the talents perform a song given by their coach, and the coach saves one out of every four talents while the rest are left to public votes. Public votes save one talent out of each team every week while the rest are evicted. The talents are cut from 32 to 16 to 12 to 8 of them who qualify for the finals. From the top 8, the winner and runner up are decided by the public votes.
