The final "The Voice" has arrived!

The top four singers had three opportunities to present their voices during the Monday episode, with each competitor performing a solo, an original song and a duet with his coach.

Blake Shelton has a 75% chance of winning his seventh "Voice" title, with three of his singers taking part in the final. But newcomer John Legend is not going to make things easy.

He wants to add to his prestigious collection of awards, including the Emmy, Grammy, Oscar and Tony awards: "I want to add (the" The Voice "trophy) to my coat."

Could Legend become the winner of V-EGOT in his first season as a coach?

Last week on "The Voice": Blake Shelton's team dominates the Top 4; Kelly Clarkson on the bench

Here is what happened this week:

Maelyn Jarmon

The last remaining member of Team Legend started the series with the original single "Wait for You," which she dedicated to her boyfriend at home in Texas.

"Everyone in the finale is fantastic, but I believe it's you who should win this thing," said Adam Levine, after promising that his prediction had nothing to do with his "love" to hate on Blake ".

The duo of "Unforgettable" by Nat King Cole, composed by Jarmon and Legend, was, for lack of a better word, unforgettable. The voices of the singers harmoniously harmonized on a live orchestra, offering one of our favorite shows of the night.

His next performance, however, was even better

Jarmon sang a tearful rendition of Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah". The song holds a special place in her heart as she sang it to karaoke with her father when she was a troubled waitress.

The legend rose, chanting "Yes!" Levine said that she was an "angel of heaven", claiming again that it was almost impossible for her to not win the show.

Jarmon has been the most broadcast "Voice" artist during the night on Apple Music in the last two weeks.

Andrew Sevener

The native of Texas sang "All Right Now" Free with Shelton. Sevener chose the song to challenge his coach, but Shelton assured: "No song is coming out of my comfort zone."

Sevener seemed to be in his own comfort zone during the duet, highlighting his signature rasp. And his original song, "Rural Route Raising", was even more powerful.

"I think you're making the difference between the old and the new country," Kelly Clarkson said, adding, "You should make more records like this."

Legend says that Sevener has "really been in your area, especially these last performances". Shelton nodded, "You've never done better this season."

His last performance of the night was an interpretation of Hinder's "Lips of an Angel".

"Of course, you know who I want to win this competition," said Legend, referring to Jarmon. "But if I had to choose in the Blake team, from now on, I would choose Andrew."

The country singer said he could be the one to deliver Shelton's seventh win over "The Voice", based on his last name. Is it supposed to be?

Gyth Rigdon

The Louisiana singer teamed up with Shelton to form an Eagles "Take It Easy" duo. The duo combined their names and nicknamed themselves "Blythe".

For his solo performance, Rigdon tackled Earl Thomas Conley's "Once in a Blue Moon" less than six weeks after Conley died in Nashville at age 77.

"A way to honor a country music hero," Shelton said. "I know that the country music fan base … is so proud of this moment."

The original Rigdon song, "The proof that I've always loved you," was a ballad that he wrote when he and his wife started going out together. He is the only one in the final to write his own song.

"You really have everything – almost as if you were born to be here right now," says Levine. Shelton said Rigdon's song composition ability "has added another level to the finale."

"You are the total package," Shelton added. "You could win this thing."

Dexter Roberts

The country crooner sang Randy Houser's "Anything Goes" and the choice of the classic song was hailed by all the coaches, who cheered on Roberts.

"It was my favorite performance, aside from the blind (auditions)," said Clarkson, while Shelton applauded, "Literally, the next strait of George standing up there."

Roberts debuted his original song "Looking Back," honoring his musical career.

"I am absolutely convinced that you are 100% ready to make an album," Shelton said. "You are most ready to enter this place and become a superstar now."

Clarkson revealed that he was his "favorite country singer in the competition", which says a lot because of the four best artists, three of whom are country artists.

For his duet with Shelton, Roberts described "Hard Workin 'Man" by Brooks & Dunn.

It should be noted that Roberts finished seventh in season 13 of "American Idol" in 2014.

Results

The winner will be revealed at the two-hour results show Tuesday (9am EDT / PDT). Taylor Swift, BTS, Jonas Brothers, Halsey, Khalid, OneRepublic and Hootie & the Blowfish are expected to perform.
