A vocal coach created a blindfolded, "bird box style" challenge for themselves, where they react to fast chair turns on The Voice. They watch contestants' performances while blindfolded and decide whether they would turn for them based on their voice. The coach's criteria for turning is whether they believe the contestant could be commercially successful, either traditionally or on YouTube. Throughout the video, the coach shares their honest opinions on each contestant's performance, highlighting what they like and dislike, and explaining their thought process for each decision. They also mention that they might be biased and acknowledge the potential risks of turning for certain vocal styles, such as rasp. The coach concludes that they would not typically turn quickly like some coaches on the show, preferring to hear more of a contestant's performance before making a decision.
