On the conclusive night of the Season 24 Playoffs, John Legend's team faced intense competition. With just three spots for the upcoming Lives and six remaining artists – Lila Forde, Taylor Deneen, Kaylee Shimizu, Mac Royals, Kristen Brown, and Super Save Azán.
The pressure was on for impeccable vocals and nearly flawless performances. Mac Royals, the R&B singer from Wrightsville, Ark., effortlessly delivered, even closing out the performance rotation with ease.
Confidence and Connection
Mac exuded confidence even during rehearsals. Coach Legend chose D'Angelo's 'Untitled (How Does It Feel),' a song that Mac mentioned had sparked his interest in R&B during his teenage years. A devoted fan, Mac eagerly embraced the selection. When John enthusiastically pumped him up, stating he picked the song because he could envision Mac 'destroying it,' Mac replied, 'I'ma make it do what it do, baby.' As it turns out, both of them were absolutely right.
Mac delivers a self-assured, suave, and alluring performance, commanding a standing ovation from each of the four coaches. Undoubtedly, he flawlessly conquers the song. Gwen Stefani expresses to host Carson Daly, 'That is a star standing next to you,' deeply moved by his commanding stage presence. Niall Horan shares the sentiment, labeling it a 'grand finale' level performance, highlighting his overwhelming impression.
Mac Royals' Heartfelt Journey
Initially choosing Team Reba after his Blind Audition, Mac Royals connected with the country star due to his grandmother's admiration for her, as they used to watch Reba's sitcom together. Following his performance, Reba expresses her pride, stating she knows his 'grandma would be, too.' Touched by the sentiment, Mac appears visibly moved.
In the final analysis, John Legend's opinion takes precedence, and he bestows the highest praise upon his artist. With decades of experience in R&B music, John confidently places Mac Royals 'up there with the best.' Expressing his enthusiasm, he expresses a desire for a Mac Royals album without delay.
