The twenty-first season of the American reality television series The Voice premiered on September 20, 2021, on NBC.[1] Blake Shelton, Kelly Clarkson and John Legend returned as coaches for their twenty-first, eighth, and sixth seasons, respectively. Ariana Grande made her first appearance as a coach this season, replacing Nick Jonas. Meanwhile, Carson Daly returned for his twenty-first season as host.
Girl Named Tom, consisting of siblings Bekah, Caleb, and Joshua Liechty, was named the winner of the season, marking Kelly Clarkson's fourth and final win as a coach; the first instance of a group act winning the show; and the second time that the first (aired) act to audition would go on to win the entire season, following Todd Tilghman's win in season 18. Additionally, with Wendy Moten being named the runner-up, she is the oldest in the show's run, and along with Toneisha Harris (also from season 18), they are the highest-placing African-American female singers in the show's history.
The 21st season was also notable when Sasha Allen of Jim & Sasha Allen not only became the American version’s third openly transgender artist (after season 14's Angel Bonilla and season 17's Dane Mautone of Dane & Stephanie) and second transgender male to turn a chair on the show, but also became the American version's first transgender artist to have progressed to the Live shows.

Blind auditions
[edit]The blind auditions began airing on September 20, 2021. In each audition, an artist sings their piece in front of the coaches whose chairs are facing the audience. If a coach is interested to work with the artist, they will press their button to face the artist. If a singular coach presses the button, the artist automatically becomes part of their team. If multiple coaches turn, they will compete for the artist, who will decide which team they will join. Each coach has one "block" to prevent another coach from getting an artist, with only one block permitted to be used per blind audition.[4] Each coach ends up with 12 artists by the end of the blind auditions, creating a total of 48 artists advancing to the battles.
The coaches performed a mash-up of "Hold On, I'm Comin'" (John Legend & Blake Shelton) and "Respect" (Kelly Clarkson & Ariana Grande) at the start of the show.
This is the first instance that a debuting coach (Ariana Grande) does not have any four-chair turns on their team, as Shakira, Usher, Gwen Stefani, Pharrell Williams, Miley Cyrus, Alicia Keys, Jennifer Hudson, Kelly Clarkson, John Legend, and Nick Jonas have at least one four-chair turners on their teams on their respective debut season.

| Artist was eliminated with no coach pressing their button | |
| ✘ | Coach pressed "I WANT YOU" button, but was blocked by another coach from getting the artist |

Battles
[edit]The battles began airing on October 11, 2021. The advisors for this round were Jason Aldean for Team Kelly, Camila Cabello for Team Legend, Kristin Chenoweth for Team Ariana, and Dierks Bentley for Team Blake.
In this round, the coaches pit two of their artists in a singing match and then select one of them to advance to the next round. Losing artists may be "stolen" by another coach, becoming new members of their team, or can be saved by their coach, remaining a part of their original team. Multiple coaches can attempt to steal an artist, resulting in a competition for the artist, who will ultimately decide which team they will go to. Additionally, their original coach can compete for their artist if they attempt to save them. There will be no four-way knockout in this season meaning that the artists saved by their coach will go to the regular Knockouts.[5]
At the end of this round, eight artists will remain on each team; six will be battle winners, and one from a steal and a save, respectively. In total, 32 artists advance to the knockouts.
It was revealed that for the Live Playoffs Wildcard, one previously eliminated artist from each team has the chance to be voted via Twitter to earn a place in the Top 13 (see Voice Comeback).

Knockouts
[edit]The Knockouts began airing on October 25, 2021. Ed Sheeran served as the mega mentor for this season's knockouts.
In this round, each coach pairs two of their artists in a singing match. The artists themselves will select the song they will sing in the round. The coach will then select one of the artists to advance to the Live Playoffs. Each coach can steal one losing artist from another team but the coaches do not have the ability to save their artists during the Knockouts. At the end of this round, four artists will remain on each team whilst four artists will be stolen, creating a total of twenty artists advancing to the Live Playoffs.
It was revealed that for the Live Playoffs Wildcard, one previously eliminated artist from each team has the chance to be voted via Twitter to earn a place in the Top 13 (see Voice Comeback).

Week 2: Top 13 (Nov. 15–16)
[edit]This week's theme was “Dedications”. The three artists who received the fewest votes competed for the Instant Save on the results show. There was only one artist in the bottom three receiving the instant save, eliminating two artists from the competition.[6] Also, this season restored the previous elimination format last used in season 17, which does not guarantee a coach will have an artist in the finale.
As the studio performances start to be released, the trio Girl Named Tom becomes the first contestant this season to crack the Top 10 on iTunes Songs Chart. Their cover of "Dust in the Wind" hit #10 at the close of the voting window.[7][8]
