[Music] Michael bé May boast himself as the future winner of The Voice in his Instagram bio but this season is not a game to him I've been lucky enough to have my dream come true as an Entertainer and as a musician and honestly I don't know if there's anything more fulfilling in the world than having a chance to be part of doing that for someone else bu blé tells Entertainment Weekly since stepping in as an adviser for Team Blake in season three bé returns to the voice as a firsttime coach with more than double the years of Industry experience ready to pour His musical expertise in a season 26 contestants alongside fellow novice Snoop Dogg and Veteran coaches Reba McIntyre and Gwen Stefani I know that this is a TV show and I know that there's a game involved and that each of us are playing a part but I can tell you this it's not a game for any of us he says we talk about it off camera we know that each of these people this is their life their death Destiny their dream and we know that we're a big part of this journey and while it isn't the beginning or end of their Journey we know that we're a part of it and we take that responsibility really seriously the voice newcomers find themselves eager to support their teams and provide positive mentorship I think I can speak for Snoop when I say this we are not judges or are we to judge we are coaches and we hope that we can bring our experience and the love we have for music and the passion into making them better artists and helping them in this journey B blé says I think we both really felt that being empathetic and being spiritually connected was even more important than trying to find a winner it was trying to make sure that we could be a positive role model to any of these people that's not to say that the season is completely devoid of competition from shocking one chair turns for team Reba and double-edged sword menhip by Stefan to snoop's unexpected draw to country artists viewers are in for a few shocking moments it was a big surprise this season Snoop I thought would be completely different but man he loves country bé says though fans shouldn't wonder how that could pose a threat to Country royalties team Reba now on her third season McIntyre has gotten comfortable in her seat after scoring her first win as a coach last season Reba McIntyre has shocked us bé says there were two people she had on her team that were one share turns for her we didn't see it and we couldn't believe it none of us Snoop myself and Gwen looked at each other and went how do we not turn to these people so there's something in Reba's experience that allows her to hear and see things that we just didn't so who could lead one of their team members to Victory according to bé it could be anyone I don't think there's a front runner I think each of us have put together a really solid team he says there' be no surprise if Snoop has the winner on his team or if Reba does or if Gwen does and as a matter of fact I mean they might have just stolen that winner from me and vice versa The Voice season 26 premieres Monday September 23rd at 8:00 p.m. eastern time SLP Pacific Time on NBC
