LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: 'The Voice' Season 26 contestant Brad Sample took the stage and delivered a captivating performance of 'The Letter' by the 'Box Tops'. The NBC show's contestant delivered a stirring rendition of the classic song, infusing it with his own emotional depth and unique style.

Brad's performance marked a significant moment in his journey on the show, capturing the attention of both the coaches and the audience, while setting the stage for what's to come in the competition. He received two chair turns from Reba McEntire and Snoop Dogg, leaving him with a tough decision to make. Brad appeared to be quite impressed by Snoop's playful pot jokes, especially with Michael Buble backing him up. Ultimately, he chose Snoop over Reba, which turned out to be a significant misstep. In hindsight, it was a blunder, as Reba could have provided him with more effective guidance. He really should have heeded the advice of her young daughter and selected Team Reba instead.
