Snoop Dogg Uses First Steal on Niall Horan’s Artist on ‘The Voice’

Snoop Dogg used his first steal of the season on The Voice Monday night (Oct. 20), stepping in after Niall Horan chose to advance Kirbi following an emotional Battle-round performance of Lauren Daigle’s “You Say.”

Paired against Carolina Rodriguez for Team Niall’s final Battle, Kirbi and Carolina delivered a soaring and intimate take on Daigle’s Grammy-winning ballad.

“It was beautiful,” Horan said. “It was emotional, it was everything we want in a Battle. What’s really hard is you two have become such good friends over this. Kirbi, that rasp is so beautiful at the top of your register. Not many people have that. Like Snoop said, you looked like a veteran up there. Carolina, the way you started that song, to sing low in your register, straight out of the gate, was so impressive.”

Ultimately, Horan chose Kirbi, explaining, “She really gave me the emotion that I wanted from that song.” But before Carolina could exit, Snoop hit his button, using his first successful steal of the Battle rounds to add her to his team.

“The thing I loved about Carolina the most was her growth, hearing her from the Blinds to now,” Snoop said. “You could tell she’s ready.”

Elsewhere in the episode, Max Chambers and Aarik Duncan performed “Just the Two of Us,” drawing praise from Snoop for their chemistry. “You complemented each other instead of outworking each other,” he said, adding that Max would be his pick for the win. Horan agreed, saying, “Aarik, you’ve taken it to a different level, man. You really stood out in a great way. And Max, you’re just a complete natural.”

Other Battle pairings included Aiden Ross and Ava Nat performing Niall’s own duet “What a Time,” while Leyton Robinson and Manny Costello took on Chris Stapleton’s “Think I’m in Love With You.” Vinya Chhabra and Conrad Khalil sang “It Takes Two,” and Team Snoop’s Emmanuel Rey and Mindy Miller delivered “Angel From Montgomery.”

Heading into the final night of Battles, each coach has one more pairing left. Michael Bublé also has one steal remaining.
