An explosive Evanescence performance has Queen Latifah considering a major move as Dakota Cohen and Destinee Monroe face off on Season 30 of The Voice.
The Battle Rounds are getting intense on The Voice Season 30, and Team Adam is facing one of its toughest decisions yet. Singers Dakota Cohen and Destinee Monroe take on Evanescence’s rock anthem “Bring Me to Life,” delivering a performance that leaves the coaches impressed and puts Adam Levine under pressure.
But the biggest question is whether Queen Latifah will use her remaining Steal to bring one of Adam’s singers onto her team.
Dakota Cohen and Destinee Monroe Deliver a Rock-Powered Battle
The two Team Adam artists face off with their own approaches to the Evanescence hit, turning the Battle into a high-energy showdown. Queen Latifah was visibly impressed, praising both singers for embodying the song, hitting the notes, and performing with the confidence of seasoned artists.
Fellow coach Riley Green was equally enthusiastic. He described the performance as one of the most powerful the coaches had seen, highlighting Dakota’s standout vocal moments and Destinee’s arena-sized stage presence. His praise only made Adam’s decision more difficult.
Kelly Clarkson Makes a Surprising Admission
Kelly Clarkson also struggled to choose a favourite. She praised Destinee’s commanding opening and Dakota’s more nuanced approach, ultimately leaning slightly toward Dakota while making it clear that both singers had impressed her.
Then Kelly admitted that if she still had a Steal available, she would take whichever singer Adam didn’t choose. Her comment underlined just how difficult the decision had become.
Adam, meanwhile, highlighted Dakota’s distinctive sound and power, comparing part of her vocal quality to Miley Cyrus. He praised Destinee’s voice as a major strength, describing its power as almost a superpower. He also acknowledged that the two artists brought something different to the competition.
Will Queen Latifah Use Her Last Steal?
Queen’s enthusiastic reaction has raised the stakes because she is the only coach reported to have a Steal remaining for this Battle. If Adam chooses one singer, Queen could potentially give the other another chance to continue competing.
However, the preview does not confirm whether Queen will use her Steal or which singer Adam ultimately chooses. Those answers are part of the upcoming episode, so viewers will have to wait for the decision.
With Cut Week approaching, every decision matters. Dakota and Destinee have both made a strong impression, but only one can initially advance with Team Adam unless another coach steps in.
What do you think? Should Adam Levine keep Dakota Cohen or Destinee Monroe on his team — and will Queen Latifah use her Steal to save the other singer?
