Filipino singer Sofronio Vasquez made a striking impression on the judges of “The Voice” USA as all four coaches turned their chairs during his blind audition. Vasquez, who previously gained recognition as a contender on the Philippine talent show “Tawag ng Tanghalan,” performed a powerful rendition of Mary J. Blige’s “I’m Goin’ Down.”
The coaches—Snoop Dogg, Michael Buble, Reba McEntire, and Gwen Stefani—were not only moved by his vocal performance but also gave him a standing ovation. Each coach made their case for why Vasquez should join their team, highlighting his talent and potential.
“You got the whole package,” McEntire said, praising Vasquez’s soulful voice. Meanwhile, Stefani added, “That was a Grammy performance.”
Michael Buble, known for his strong connection with Filipino fans, expressed his admiration, saying, “The relationship I’ve had with the Philippines for so many years makes me love you even more.”
Vasquez’s journey in music began when he competed in “Tawag ng Tanghalan” on “It’s Showtime,” where he reached the semifinals. His latest achievement on “The Voice” further cements his reputation as a rising talent in the music industry.
