Netizens have expressed their qualms with two coaches on “The Voice,” one of whom has been a mentor on the show before. The comments come after the judges kicked off the show with a group performance.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

After months of anticipation, NBCs “The Voice” is back on TV screens with season 26 already having kicked off with a bang and two new faces. While beloved iconic artists Reba McEntire and Gwen Stefani have reprised their coach roles, season 25 coaches and fellow famous entertainers Dan + Shay, Chance the Rapper, and John Legend have not.<\/p>\n

Replacing the three aforementioned industry heavy hitters, legendary musicians Snoop Dogg and Michael Bubl\u00e9 have come on board as the two new coaches for this season.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The two made their debut on Monday night, September 23, which was the premiere of the singing competition series. As is usually the case with the show, Snoop, Stefani, McEntire, and Bubl\u00e9 will gear up for the Blind Auditions in the first few episodes.<\/p>\n

This phase of the competition focuses on the coaches building up their team of performers based on the competitors sounds alone.<\/p>\n

Even though the premiere just happened yesterday (September 23), the internet is already ablaze with reactions and commentary. Many netizens have taken issue with the selection of two coaches, namely Snoop and Stefani.<\/p>\n

“Banning this season due to Snoop Dogg! Disgraceful,” criticized an Instagrammer. A particularly opinionated user wrote, “This [seasons] initial episode was awful!!! Snoop is a cringy judge! [His] trying to seek a contestant on branding and marketing was way out there!!!”<\/p>\n

The same user went on to express, “Not sure why they brought back Gwen. She was cute when Blake was on as a judge. I love Michael. But honestly Im starting to find Im bored with the show\u2026 none of the contestants really stood out to me yet.”<\/p>\n

Adding to the disdain for Snoop as a coach while including the other judges as well, another noted, “Snoop Dogg keeps saying the same things over and over. This is the worst set of judges they have ever had. I wont be watching and see how the ratings go this year.”<\/p>\n

Ahead of the season premiere, Reba McEntire and Snoop Dogg shared some words about what their strategies as coaches will be like for this season.\"\"<\/p>\n

“So were only nine minutes into the show and Gwen Stefani is already irritating. Is she always gonna use Blake to try to get to the contestants [?] \ud83d\ude44,” remarked a viewer of Stefani and her famous husband Blake Shelton, who used to be a judge on previous seasons.<\/p>\n

Amid the vitriol, however, came a few praises for Stefani and Snoop. “Snoop and [Gwen],” penned a fan who highlighted their love for the duo with two heart emojis. Another admirer swooned, “Great judges! Snoop did even better than I expected!”<\/p>\n

As the aforementioned comment suggests, Snoop showed that his musical talents extend beyond rapping \u2014 which he is widely known for \u2014 during the coaches group performance.<\/p>\n

He, McEntire, Stefani, and Bubl\u00e9 dazzled the audience with an electrifying performance of the Eagles classic “Heartache Tonight” to showcase their unique skills as coaches.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The “Drop It Like It\u2019s Hot” artist kicked the performance off with his smooth vocal cadence, which was then followed by Bubl\u00e9s velvety vocals.<\/p>\n

Ahead of the season premiere, Reba McEntire and Snoop Dogg shared some words about what their strategies as coaches will be like for this season.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

As a seasoned judge, McEntire explained how one thing she looks for in contestants is if they can make listeners and spectators emotional when they perform.<\/p>\n

“Are we inspired? Do we feel something? I will turn in a heartbeat for somebody that makes me feel something,” divulged the country star.<\/p>\n

On the other hand, coming into the show as a newbie, Snoop noted how his strategy mostly involves looking, listening, and learning.<\/p>\n
