The Voice Season 24: Top 12 Power List Ranked — Plus Poll Results
The Voice Season 24 moves into the live shows this week with the Top 12, and it’s time to rank the remaining contestants who are vying for the crown. Below is a fresh power list of the Top 12, written with live show performance potential in mind, followed by the results from the recent fan poll.
The Voice 24 Polls: Vote for your FAV Top 12 Artist!
Once the live shows begin, the coaches no longer decide who advances — the viewers do. The Top 12 perform on Monday, and after overnight voting, the audience will vote contestants into the Top 9. From the Top 9, the Final Five will be determined to compete in the December 18–19 finale.
The Voice 24: Chance the Rapper Returns to Mentor the Top 12
With the finalists set, this ranking evaluates each artist’s current momentum, versatility, and live show appeal. Team Niall looks particularly deep this season, while Team Reba has one especially strong contender in 16-year-old country singer Ruby Leigh, who could be a dark horse to win it all. Overall, the Top 12 is packed with talent, and the female singers notably outnumber the males, but that doesn’t preclude a male champion.
The Voice Season 24 Full Schedule CONFIRMED
After the ranking, you’ll find the fan poll results showing which contestants and teams are currently most popular. The Voice airs on NBC on Monday at 8 pm ET/PT and Tuesday at 9 pm ET/PT.
12. BIAS – Team Gwen
Gwen has supported BIAS since his Blind Auditions — his quirky approach stood out when he covered Blake Shelton’s “God’s Country.” He delivered an emotional Playoffs rendition of Larry Fleet’s “Where I Find God,” but he hasn’t yet built a strong connection with the broader voting audience. In a season with several strong country performers, BIAS faces stiff competition to advance.
11. Jordan Rainer – Team Reba
Jordan brings classic country energy and a commanding stage presence. She’s witty and could even translate to hosting or acting down the line. Reba likely sees a bit of herself in Jordan, but despite strong vocals and persona, Jordan hasn’t yet broken through to become a standout contender.
10. Jacquie Roar – Team Reba
Jacquie started the season leaning into country tracks, then surprised with a powerful Playoffs performance of Fleetwood Mac’s “The Chain.” She showed real range and intensity, but this season is particularly stacked, so she’ll need another standout night to secure a Top 9 spot.
9. Lila Forde – Team Legend
Lila’s phrasing and tone are refined, and she’s clearly an accomplished musician. However, some of her performances have lacked emotional connection for viewers. A laid-back delivery of sensitive singer-songwriter material, like James Taylor’s “Fire and Rain,” felt oddly detached. Her technical skill is strong, but she must deepen her stage intimacy to climb the rankings.
8. AZÁN – Team Legend
AZÁN was the only artist saved as a “super-save” to re-enter the live shows after elimination, which speaks to her talent. Her R&B style with jazz and pop influences — covering artists like Jill Scott, Miguel, and Anita Baker — is distinctive. Being moved between teams can be a challenge, so she’ll need a show-stopping performance to become a frontrunner.
7. Tanner Massey – Team Gwen
Technically Tanner may not be the strongest vocalist left, but his earnestness and vulnerability resonate with audiences. He wears his heart on his sleeve and delivers emotionally honest performances, similar to past contestants who advanced far on feeling alone. While I place him just outside the Top 5, a surge from the fanbase could push him higher.
6. Kara Tenae – Team Gwen
Kara is an understated R&B vocalist who channels 90s and early 2000s influences with impeccable control. She chose restraint over excess on songs like JoJo’s “Leave (Get Out),” making every ad lib and run count. Kara is a complete package, though her tasteful approach could be overshadowed by flashier singers in viewers’ minds.
5. Nini Iris – Team Niall
Nini is a fan favorite for good reason. From a jaw-dropping Blind Audition of “I See Red” to a moody pop take on Radiohead’s “Karma Police,” her range and stage charisma make her a serious contender with undeniable finale potential.
4. Mac Royals – Team Legend
Mac impressed the coaches with a soulful rendition of D’Angelo’s “Untitled (How Does It Feel).” Like Kara, he rarely misses a note and brings confidence and swagger to the stage. He’s a strong pick from Team Legend with the chops to go deep in the competition.
3. Mara Justine – Team Niall
Already experienced from stints on America’s Got Talent and American Idol, Mara knows how to compete. She delivered a dramatic Blind Audition with “Goodbye Yellow Brick Road” and solidified her place with Florence + the Machine’s “You’ve Got The Love,” commanding the stage and drawing viewers in. Her competitive savvy gives her a serious edge.
2. Ruby Leigh – Team Reba
At just 16, Ruby has a maturity and polish reminiscent of early LeAnn Rimes. She brings classic country stylings, including expert yodeling, and delivered a tender Playoffs performance of Linda Ronstadt’s “Long Long Time.” Ruby is Reba’s standout artist and a legitimate contender to win the season.
1. Huntley – Team Niall
Huntley embodies the type of contestant who tends to thrive on singing competitions: a charismatic male rock vocalist with broad stylistic range. He brings power, stage presence, and a sense of ease. His Blind Audition cover of the Black Crowes’ “She Talks to Angels” turned all four chairs, and his Playoffs dedication of David Kushner’s “Daylight” to his young daughter added a heartfelt personal touch that resonates with viewers.
