-Yes, boy!
[ Cheers and applause ]
-Oh, yes.
Proper solid rock performance that we haven't seen.
Kason, I love your -- your husk.
It's so nice to hear that in a rock song like that.
-Appreciate it, man.
-Walker, for me, your voice just pierces through.
There's a brightness to the tone but also a nice grit.
You matched up really perfectly. It's a tough one for Blake.
-Seems like it's a tough one for you.
-It is.
-Guess I would lean towards Walker.
-Thank you, Niall.
-You guys are the exact same person, yo.
-Dude, it's so weird.
-That's what we've been hearing. Yeah.
-One of you guys has a hat on. It's you.
-It's me, dawg.
-But tonally,
it's like you said, it's very evenly matched.
-[ Laughing ]
-Look, I think, uh, all jokes aside,
awesome performance.
And I'm gonna agree with Niall
that Walker had the edge on that one, for sure.
-Thank you, dude.
-Yes, you do have similarities,
but I think vocally, you are different
in the sense that, Kason, you have a raspiness to you,
but it's a little smoother.
And, Walker, you have this grit about you and it's really cool.
I thought it was a really evenly matched battle.
-I appreciate that. -Yeah.
-Thank you, coaches.
Alright, buddy, tough decision here.
-This is like the easiest no-brainer battle
that I've ever put together
in the history of being a coach.
You guys both killed it.
And this has been a blast to watch and listen to.
And you both have the raspy thing going on.
I feel like Walker has almost like a buzz
that happens with his voice.
-Yeah, that's really cool.
-And it just, it does cut through,
and you kind of attack a song
where Kason, he kind of plays with it.
What you do works for both of you.
-Blake, who's the winner of this battle?
♪♪
-I'm gonna lean on my fellow coaches here.
The winner of this battle is Walker.
-Walker moving on to the knockouts. Congratulations!
-Love you, bro. -Love you.
-Kason and Walker both gave it
everything they had on that stage,
and I felt like Walker had the edge.
Congratulations, buddy.
Walker has a lot of character to his voice and he stands out,
and I really think he's gonna thrive in the knockouts.
-You do really have a cool texture.
-Kind of crazy we're on Blake's team.
We're going to knockouts, baby.
Mama, I did it.
-Kason, anything you want to say to Coach?
I'm just thankful for the opportunity.
I mean, this stage is freaking awesome.
This crowd's awesome. So it's all good.
Got nothing but love. Yeah.
-Give it up for Kason Lester, ladies and gentlemen!
-Yeah!
I didn't try to steal Kason.
I'm just waiting for somebody
that's gonna be able to match the intensity of my team.
I don't look at the steal as giving somebody a second chance.
I look at it as giving them an opportunity
to win the whole show,
and also putting them where they belong,
which is with the winners.
