"You have such a powerful soprano voice": John Legend praises Morgan after her blind audition

Hailing from Nashville, Morgan is a student who is studying music and songwriting. She shared that ever since the pandemic, she hasn't been able to perform in public. After receiving a four-chair turn, Gwen Stefani told the contestant:

"I see somebody who was born to do what you're doing. Finally, you're on a stage, and all of America got to see you belt out the gift that God gave you."

John Legend complimented her vocals and said that she sounded "special." He also added that he would help her improve and "bring out her 100%." John said:

"That song is such a daunting song to take on. You have such a powerful soprano voice. The higher part was so compelling; it sounded like it should be on the radio. It sounded special."

Camila urged Morgan to pick her, claiming that she knew the pop landscape well.

However, Blake Shelton didn't back down either. The award-winning singer told Morgan:

"Camila may know the pop landscape very well, but we happen to be on The Voice, and I know [the show's] landscape very, very well. I pushed my button three seconds into you singing. This person's voice matters. You stand out. Unbelievable. I would be so excited to have you on my team."

Morgan ultimately chose to be on Team John Legend, much to the delight of fans.
