The Blind Auditions, Battle Rounds, Knockout Rounds, and Playoff Rounds have officially come to a close, and the highly-anticipated Live Shows of The Voice season 24 begin tonight (December 4) on NBC — we seriously cannot contain our excitement!
With each coach entering the Playoff Rounds with six stellar singers, coaches Niall Horan, Reba McEntire, Gwen Stefani, and John Legend were forced to split their respective teams in half, selecting only three individuals to advance to the Live Shows, and sending the other three individuals home. The top 12 artists are listed below…
- Team Niall: Huntley
- Team Niall: Nini Iris
- Team Niall: Mara Justine
- Team Reba: Jacquie Roar
- Team Reba: Ruby Leigh
- Team Reba: Jordan Rainer
- Team Gwen: Tanner Massey
- Team Gwen: BIAS
- Team Gwen: Kara Tenae
- Team Legend: Lila Forde
- Team Legend: Mac Royals
- Team Legend: AZÁN
With each and every one of these artists ready to knock the socks off of the coaches (as well as viewers back home), it turns out they received some help from a special someone before taking the stage. Spoiler alert — he used to be a coach on The Voice himself!
Keep scrolling to find out who the top 12 mentor is on The Voice season 24.
Did you guess correctly? The top 12 mentor is the one and only Chance The Rapper, who joined the coaches panel for season 23, and will be returning to the coaches panel for season 25.
According to NBC, “His quick wit and humor, mixed with his dynamite musical instincts, made him an incredible mentor to his team, so when news broke that he’d be returning to The Voice Season 25 as a Coach, alongside Reba McEntire, Dan + Shay, and John Legend, viewers were pumped.”
Chance The Rapper will be back briefly on The Voice to serve as a mentor going into the highly-anticipated Live Shows, and fans of the beloved competition series seriously could not be more thrilled.
“I love Chance! He was such a a good coach,” one fan commented on an Instagram post from The Voice, which announced the news to the public.

“Yay! I absolutely adored Chance on the last season of The Voice,” shared a third.
