The Voice Season 22 has narrowed down the competition to the Top 5. After a few shocking eliminations, the finale will feature three Team Blake artists, one Team Legend Artist, and one Team Camila artist.
Who Will Win The Voice Season 22?
Which artist will take home the trophy for The Voice Season 22? Will Blake Shelton earn his ninth win on the series, or will a dark horse emerge? Let’s take a look at the Top 5 contestants, ranked by who’s most likely to win it all.
5. Brayden Lape
Arguably the most shocking thing to happen during the Semifinals results was this Team Blake artist making it through to the Top 5 thanks to America’s vote. The 15-year-old has a nice voice, but he’s simply not on the same level as the four singers who were up for the Instant Save. Gwen Stefani loves to talk about how cute he is, and a lot of viewers undoubtedly agree. But is it enough to name him the Season 22 winner?
4. Bodie
This four-chair turn on Team Blake has glided through the competition with a cool style and solid vocal chops. However, his Top 8 performance of Halsey’s “Without Me” just didn’t have to same wow factor as past performances. A YouTube commenter put it best when they wrote that he “really shines when he strips it all down to his voice and musical talent.” We’ll have to wait and see what approach he takes for his finale performance.
3. Morgan Myles
This four-chair turn on Team Camila has brought experience and emotion to her performances throughout the competition. She’s shown versatility in different genres and styles, sending her through from week to week thanks to America’s vote. She also happens to be the only woman in the Top 5. If she earns the title, she’ll be the first solo female artist to win the show since Maelyn Jarmon in Season 16. It would be a nice surprise to see Morgan win it all, and for Camila Cabello to get a victory in her first season as a coach.
2. Omar Jose Cardona
Many fans were angered to see this four-chair turn up for the Instant Save during the Semifinals results. The singer has delivered some seriously powerhouse performances this season, and his take on “My Heart Will Go On” was no exception. It’s possible that some fans assumed he would be safe last week and failed to vote, but him being in danger of elimination might motivate them next time. Plus, fans of the two other Team Legend artists who recently went home (Parijita Bastola and Kim Cruse) might throw their support behind him, giving him a shot at the title.

1. Bryce Leatherwood
Team Blake has been dominating this season’s live shows, and nobody represents the team better than this country singer. I think Blake Shelton was absolutely right during the Semifinals when he said that Bryce “engaged the army of country music fans that watch this show.” A lot of country fans watch The Voice, and Bryce is pretty much country personified. Do I think he should win? Not really. Do I think he will win? Based on the season so far, I think it’s very likely. But you never know what might happen.
The Voice Season 22 Finals will kick off Monday night as the Top 5 take the stage for their final performances. Voting will be open overnight, and the winner will be announced during Tuesday’s two-hour finale. Let us know in the comments below which artist you want to see win it all.
