Blake Shelton Pairs Country Artists in Voice Knockout

Blake Shelton's two country artists, Cody Wickine and Corey Kent White duked it out in the knockout rounds on 'The Voice.' Cody, who is known for his traditional country sound, took on Justin Moore's 'Til My Last Day,' while Corey tugged at the heart strings with Tim McGraw's 'Live Like You Were Dying.'

Cody vs Corey

Cody may have been an early favorite on #TeamBlake but Corey's emotional vocal caught everyone's attention.

Adam Levine felt what Corey was singing. "As far as delivering a vocal in an unbelievably, convincingly, genuine and passionate way, Corey takes this one. But I was surprised to feel that way because I'm a huge fan of Cody."

Coach Shelton felt the same as Adam even though he has a special place in his heart for Cody. "Cody you have a sound that's special and we don't have much of on country radio today but I don't think I've ever heard Corey sing like that."

Corey choose the McGraw hit after his grandfather's health scare. He even had a hard time talking about why he was doing the song in rehearsal, but when he hit the stage he "poured all that emotion into the song and that's what the song is about. It's important to be able to take a real situation and turn into art. That's just something you're born with," Blake explained before choosing to keep Corey for the live rounds.

So happy and excited to be moving onto the Top 20! Now it's up to you America. #TeamBlake #CKWHITEOUT #top20 @NBCTheVoice

Hannah Kirby

Hannah Kirby returned home after Blake Shelton used his last steal. Kirby lost her knockout after singing 'Higher Love' but Blake brought her back to where she belonged.

If you remember, last year Craig Wayne Boyd left #TeamBlake but was stolen back and ended up winning the whole show.
