The Voice USA 2017 (Season 12) Blind Auditions have concluded, and now the Battle Round will begin next week. The selected 48 contestants will take on each other with the hope of progressing to the next round.
Spoilers:
There will be four episodes of the Battle Round, so six pairs are expected to perform in each episode. The pairing will be done within each team, which means the coaches can keep only six of the current 12 contestants in their respective teams. However, they can steal from other teams if they want to work with them.
