LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: 'The Voice' fans were in for a rude shock when Team Gwen's Kevin Hawkins was eliminated from the singing competition show on the recently aired episode of the NBC show. The Texas native's unique vocals made him an instant fan-favorite artist and also earned him a four-chair turn during the blind auditions.

Many fans even pegged him as the winner of the season. So when 'The Voice' host Carson Daly announced that Team Blake's Bryce Leatherwood was the recipient of the instant save vote and not him, fans were shocked. Kevin, Bryce, Team Legend's Sasha Hurtado, and Team Camila's Kate Kalvach, had to compete for the instant save vote after being placed amongst the bottom four. The four artists fought tooth and nail to earn a spot amongst the Top 13, but in the end, Bryce won.

HUGE mistake! Sorry not sorry. If you know this song you appreciate this performance even more. His spin on it was." "I personally don’t understand America’s voting preferences after watching this and Kevin not going through," declared a fan. "YOU GOT ROBBED KEVIN): PLEASE CONTINUE YOUR MUSIC! DONT STOP!

You are GREATNESS," echoed a fan.
