The show "Voice" is a new hit on domestic television. Unlike all other music programs of the current and past seasons, the show firmly and confidently holds the lead in the race for the attention of the audience. What caused the interest of the public? And what can we expect from the jury of the new season?
A bit about history
Nevertheless, the domestic version turned out to be a little different: TV viewers noted that our jury, even in the “blind” competition, strives to guess the appearance of the vocalist, so the result is not the most impartial assessment of vocal talent. But differences from the original format are inevitable: we have a different stage, different musicians, different mentors and a different opinion about the “necessary” artist.
TV show format
On domestic television there were many musical programs in the "talent search" format. At one time, for example, the "Star Factory" was popular. But time goes by, everything changes. The audience, its tastes and needs are changing, and this is also a factor that you need to adapt to. Viewers became uninteresting to watch the same young artists singing to the soundtrack. So, it took a show where the emphasis will be on something completely different. This explains the popularity of the Voice project in our country - there are completely different participants and live vocals.
Rules and Jury
As in the original TV show, the main criterion for evaluating the contestants is the voice. It is the lively and strong vocals that enable the jury members to evaluate the artist and choose the best ones to go to the next stage. Each mentor is a recognized master of the national music scene. His task is to select members for his team, relying only on hearing. After the stage of "blind auditions", the format of the program turns into a fight "for elimination" between the contestants. And it is on the mentors that the spectacular performances and the correct choice of numbers, necessary to unlock the potential of each of the selected artists, depend. The jury carefully selects the repertoire for all their wards, passing on musical experience during rehearsals.
The goal of the show is not to make a new star out of the artists, the essence of the project is in the teamwork of the mentor and the ward, which sometimes results in completely unexpected and unformatted numbers. Most of the already formed, albeit unknown, artists come to the casting of "Voices". Therefore, for them the composition of the jury is very important.
Mentors from previous seasons
The format of the TV show determined a clear division of mentors by musical genre. Thus, the participants who impressed the jury had the right to choose the teacher who impressed them the most. All four mentors quickly won the love of viewers with their impartiality, professionalism and sincere desire to discover new talents. The audience was looking forward to new releases and worried about the contestants they liked. The show confidently took a leading position in the rating of the television network, and the number of people wishing to participate in the sensational project grew exponentially.
Transfer of experience of masters
The show "Voice" immediately distinguished itself with its atmosphere. Against the background of other vocal programs, it was precisely the attitude of the jury members towards their wards that distinguished him. Participation in every performance, genuine experiences, respect for the participants - these qualities were appreciated by the audience in mentors. "Voice" did not become another "bride", instead of this, a professional and adult show appeared. Candidates for the jury of the project were selected no less carefully than the participants. Preference was given not to the popularity and promotion of the artist, but to real talent, authority and merit in the musical field. Therefore, there was no doubt about the professionalism of previous mentors. All of them could be liked or disliked by the audience, but the opinions of the audience always converged on one thing - each of them has come a long way, has rich experience, and can teach the contestants a lot. And the peculiar division of the jury members into musical genres is a confirmation of this: the project brought together real masters of the Russian stage, fully realized in their field. But it was like that before.
Season 4 intrigue
After the completion of the third "Voice", viewers were looking forward to the new season. And many asked a difficult question: will the past mentors remain? It would seem that the composition of the jury of the project has already fully developed and cannot be changed, but rumors about changes have appeared. Viewers began to wonder who would be replaced, and, most importantly, by whom, and then the leadership of Channel One officially announced the change in the jury of the popular project, but refused to disclose the names of the new heroes. The reasons for such measures were called very different, but the result remained unchanged: in the new season, viewers did not see their beloved Dima Bilan, Pelageya and Leonid Agutin.
New jury. The Voice Season 4
The names of the mentors were kept secret until the last moment, even polls were offered with options for candidates. There were whole discussions about who deserved to take vacant places on the rating TV show. In the end, season 4 began with a premiere and the presentation of the updated jury. To the delight of the audience and the contestants, Alexander Borisovich Gradsky did not go anywhere. The rest of the cast has undergone dramatic changes: the previous masters were replaced by Polina Gagarina, and Vasily Vakulenko, better known under the pseudonym Basta.
The new mentors did not cause much surprise, many assumed a similar outcome. But questions crept in about whether the jury members of the new season were fairly chosen. Is getting a judge's seat connected with something other than professionalism? Why exactly Polina Gagarina and right now? And does Grigory Leps fit into the transmission format?
Negative reaction is also a reaction
The new jury of the show "Voice" ... The 4th season of the project began with this. And if initially viewers perceived the news positively, then with each new release, a wave of indignation and misunderstanding grows. On the one hand, the candidacies of all three are very clear, moreover, Grigory Leps and Polina Gagarina already had similar experience in the programs “Main Stage” and “I Want to Meladze”. On the other hand, is it a good choice?
One can understand the stormy reaction of the audience to the jury of the show "Voice" - many were waiting for season 4 largely thanks to the well-coordinated team of the presenter and mentors, who were no less interesting to watch than the contestants. But the new season could not justify the hopes of the viewers, the project groups on social networks were filled with negative feedback from listeners about the jury of the 4th season. The Voice, however, is still on the Friday TV grid, but for how long?
The Voice Season 4 Reviews about the jury
At one time, the project of Channel One, which exploded ratings, is now rapidly losing ground. What is it connected with? Has the show format become obsolete? Or does a new jury make itself felt? "Voice", season 4 especially, has always united the opinions of the audience in a peculiar way. But if initially the audience paid more attention to the participants, then in the new releases a flurry of indignation fell on the mentors themselves and the creators of the TV show.
After the start of new issues, more and more people talk about the jury. "Voice" (season 4) has become one of the most talked about. There were a lot of posts, polls and negative comments. Viewers are actively expressing their opinion about the new jury of the Voice project: season 4 has become the most discussed in the history of domestic adaptation, but for some reason in a negative way.
If we recall the first programs, then Alexander Borisovich Gradsky was mainly criticized - many did not agree with his statements and assessments. Now the opposite is true: it was the master who earned most of the audience's approval, unlike Polina Gagarina and Grigory Leps. It is their viewers who highlight in their comments. The overall picture of the jury reviews - "The Voice", season 4, turned out to be a failure.
Of all the new mentors, only rapper Basta falls out of the stream of general criticism, he was received rather restrainedly, noting his inherent reasonable rigor and prudence, and it was Vasily Vakulenko who raised the most questions even before the start of the season. As for Polina Gagarina, the audience was unanimous: this artist does not reach the title of mentor.
She is reproached for insincerity, the desire to copy Pelageya, in antics and bias. Yes, of course, Polina Gagarina is a talented singer who is now at the peak of her career and at the zenith of fame, but The Voice is not the project she needs. Grigory Leps also called a huge one, having received more than unflattering marks.
Many noted his unwillingness to delve into the essence of what is happening, rudeness and incompetence. Thus, we can conclude that for the new composition of the jury "Voice" (season 4) received not the best reviews.
Change of mentors = change of format?
A rapid loss of rating after the start of a new season is a bad omen. It is likely that it will come to the same opinion, and we are again waiting for change. Perhaps they will replace the mentors again, or maybe they will simply close the project due to unprofitability. One thing is for sure: in the show "Voice" (season 4), reviews of the jury played an important role in reducing the interest of the audience. The project, as it began in 2012, has undergone significant changes. And it's not just the new faces of the judiciary. The participants also turned out to be much weaker than the previous ones.
In the first seasons, we saw non-professionals with strong and sometimes unique vocals. Now the project has turned into another place of PR. How else to explain the arrival of the ex-participant of "House 2" and the host of the "Eagle and Tails" program, which were favorably accepted by the jury? The Voice (Season 4) is definitely not the same show as it used to be. Starting as something fundamentally new, it gradually turns into a conveyor, similar to the "Star Factory", which does not properly monitor the quality of its "products". Is the new jury of the show "Voice" (season 4) to blame for this? Reviews tend to be positive. Maybe the project is simply adapting to the needs of modern TV and pop music, changing its original principles?
The future of the updated show
Undoubtedly, the new season of the still popular program will not go anywhere from the Friday broadcast schedule. We will be able to watch the struggle of the remaining participants for the coveted victory to the end. But what will happen next? Will the show "Voice" (season 4), the reviews of the jury of which were so harsh and negative, the last in its history, or will we see this team in new releases? The question remains open, especially since there is no worthy alternative even to such a changed format. This means that no matter how much this topic is discussed, now the leadership of Channel One does not intend to change the composition of the jury in any way.
"Voice", season 4 (reviews from viewers are unlikely to do anything here) - the show is ambiguous. Although, who knows, maybe the indignation of the audience will subside, and the audience will get used to the frivolous Polina Gagarina, and the biased Grigory Leps, and the unformatted Basta, as, for example, they once got used to Alexander Borisovich. And then, quite possibly, for the new jury, "Voice" (season 4) will also receive positive reviews.
In the meantime, it's worth just watching the project for the sake of the most important thing - its contestants, who are already approaching the final fights. Whatever the format of the TV show becomes, the goal remains the same: to find a strong and professional voice. So the overall picture remains the same, on the stage of the country's main musical project, well-known, beautiful and complex compositions are again heard to the accompaniment of a live orchestra. After all, this is the essence of the show "Voice" (Season 4). Reviews about the jury, opinions about the change of mentors and refereeing discussions - all this is secondary. It remains only to try to enjoy the talent of the contestants, not paying attention to minor points.
Conclusion
Who knows, maybe this is temporary, and in the new season, the leadership of the Voice, having listened to the reviews, will make its viewers happy with new masters in the judge's chairs, which the listeners will like more. Although no matter how professional the mentors of the popular show are, there are hardly any candidates that cause the approval of absolutely the entire audience. This means that even the most adequate and objective future of the jury may turn out to be in the same unsightly light as the current one, because the reaction of the public is always unpredictable.
"Songs" on TNT will be aired very soon, and music fans will finally be able to appreciate this show. The main members of the jury will be the producers of this show, Maxim Fadeev and Timati. But for each issue, new famous personalities who are associated with this field of activity will be invited. Therefore, each issue we will see different judges of this project!
The Songs project is a new show on the TNT channel, which will start airing very soon.
Already by the name it is clear that the show will be vocal, there will be young and talented performers who have been selected for a long time throughout the country.
But the composition of the jury will be very interesting.
The first judge was rapper Timati, he is also the producer of this project.
He will be accompanied by composer and producer Max Fadeev, who is also the producer of the show.
The rest of the jury will change from time to time, but they are all media people, mostly from show business.
So in one of the issues, the singer Vera Brezhneva will sit in the judge's chair.
Show "Songs" on TNT who are the star mentors? Who is on the jury?
Another new show is starting. And now it will be shown on the TNT channel.
And it will start in February. It remains to wait quite a bit.
And it will not be easy to achieve this if it does not captivate the viewer and capture the same way as "Voice".
Talented vocalists were selected in five cities. It was there that the applicants for participation in the competition came to the casting.
This competition was organized by Max Fadeev and Timati.
They will also be mentors for those who will successfully pass the competition from stage to stage.
The judges will be people who, in my opinion, have not previously participated in such events. Among them is Vera Brezhneva. But Yana Koshkina appeared on the first channel in the show "Kings of Plywood".
It is planned that songs for young performers will be selected not hackneyed or completely new.
It will be interesting to see the beginning. And there it will be seen what this show will be like.
It is known that the jury will be quite well-known people, these are Max Fadeev, Timati, as well as Yana Koshkina, Vera Brezhneva.
So we are waiting for the premiere.
In addition to the stellar lineup of producers in the person of Timati and Max Fadeev, such stars as Vera Brezhneva, Yana Koshkina were noticed in the future project, a decent lineup of mentors is being recruited and all that remains is to wait for the long-awaited television broadcast.
Apparently, we will soon have an amazing show on the TNT channel, as always the most popular and rated programs are talent shows, and here unfamiliar, but talented people will sing songs.
The show is called “Songs”, but Timati and Maxim Fadeev will become the hosts and most likely mentors.
In addition, well-known faces will be invited mentors, but they will periodically change (perhaps every concert) from the lit faces we saw Vera Brezhneva, Yana Koshkina and others.
I really hope that fresh, new and of course talented faces will appear on our stage soon, we can only look forward to the first release of the program.
Because everyone watched the new show Success with pleasure at STS. There is a very big prize, because it is five million rubles, this is a decent amount for the winner.
There are two producers in the show, these are the main characters of the selection, Maxim Fadeev and rapper Timati, each of them has his own label, the leader of the show will work in it. Also, the jury will evaluate the performances of the singer Vera Brezhneva, Yana Koshkina, known to everyone on Channel One, and other media people, they will change.
This time the talent show will be called very simply "Songs", and its producers are the well-known Timati and Maxim Fadeev.
This musical project will be somewhat different from all the others, and we will have to evaluate this very soon.
And the jury will consist of the following interesting personalities: Vera Brezhneva, Yana Koshkina and other stars.
I think it will be interesting, I'll take a look with pleasure. If, of course, time permits.
There is so much noise because of the new project "Songs" and it is clear that its advertising is very successful and massive. The producers and organizers of the show, Fadeev and Timati, promise something incredible, although as for me, this is a repeat of The Voice, only with a larger main prize and maybe a slightly different transmission format and a 5 million prize as a result. Of course, the organizers themselves, Fadeev and Timati, will become mentors. By the way, those who showed up at the casting say that they were not there, which was surprising. But they probably have more important things to do, after all, the show is just around the corner and already in February. The contestants will also be judged by well-known people in show business, such as Vera Brezhneva, Yana Koshkina and others.
There are already so many promos about this show that I want to see it on the air as soon as possible.
It will be difficult for the participants, because they need to win over the audience with a completely new song, and even write it themselves.
The mentors are the most stellar, and it seems to me strict. This is Timati, now he is definitely familiar to everyone. And Maxim Fadeev, he also writes talented songs.
And apparently there will be more guest stars on the jury. So it was already clear from the promo that there would be Vera Brezhneva. She often appears on music shows.
And I also saw Yana Koshkina there. The girl is now also actively filmed on TV. But of course there will be other stars, the audience will be surprised.
Already on Saturday, February 11, the international children's vocal competition "You are super!" will start on NTV. Now the details of the replacement in the jury of the project have become known.
The new musical show will give talented children without parental care a chance to express themselves and demonstrate their vocal abilities throughout the country.
In the end of January that the jury will include the singer , music producer Igor Krutoy as well as opera and pop singer Margarita Sukhankina. However, a week before the premiere, there were changes in the composition of the judges. Composer, music producer, Honored Artist of Russia joined the star panel of judges of the musical show Viktor Drobysh and singer Stas Piekha.Due to personal circumstances, the 62-year-old Igor Krutoy will become a mentor of the contestants at the next stage and will personally take part in the selection of children for competitions "New wave" And "Junior Eurovision". Note that, according to life Cool recently had surgery in Los Angeles.
Stas Piekha knows firsthand what it's like to live within the walls of an orphanage. "Project" You are super! fundamentally different from other music competitions in that they were looking for participants among the guys who had not been paid attention to before. For me, this competition is especially important. I absolutely consciously spent all my childhood and adolescence in an orphanage. Those serious guys beyond their years were close to me. Giving a chance to these vocalists in the final of the competition, we will get something completely extraordinary. That potential, that zeal that they have, will make everyone fight to the last, ”said Stas Piekha.
“I believe that this musical show has a very noble and grateful mission to help those who find themselves in a difficult life situation. And it is especially important that the participants are children. I am glad to become a member of the jury, especially in such a cool line-up. Together with Yolka, Stas Piekha and Rita Sukhankina, I hope we will judge everything correctly, ”shared music producer Viktor Drobysh.
On Wednesday, a press conference was held dedicated to the start of the new season of the NTV vocal show “You are super!” It was attended by the general producer of the channel Timur Weinstein, the host of the project Vadim Takmenev, as well as the show jumping jury. As it became known, this time the young performers will be judged by Viktor Drobysh, Igor Krutoy and Yulianna Karaulova, as well as Sergey Lazarev, whose participation was announced last week.
The winner of the Eurovision 2016 audience vote was unable to attend the event for journalists. Now Sergey Lazarev is in the USA with his son. The artist recorded a video message in which he shared his emotions from new duties. According to Lazarev, he is looking forward to the moment when the shooting begins. Sergei called the project "amazing and special."
Victor Drobysh, who last year became the producer of the New Star Factory, decided to publicly appeal to his colleagues.
“Before the start of the second season, I would like to wish all the members of the jury and myself to gain courage and try to be objective, no matter what. The first season revealed the potential of the project, but now, together with the participants, we must take a new professional height. I would like to participate in rehearsals more often, be more responsible for the level of preparation of children and see how the talents of our contestants are revealed, ”said the producer.
As it turned out, Igor Krutoy planned to become a member of the jury in the first season of the vocal show, but the plans had to be postponed due to personal circumstances. The composer shared that he is always glad to meet talented artists. According to Krutoy, thanks to the project, many novice performers were able to reveal their potential.
“Competition “You are super!” ignited new names on our stage: after the final credits, great professional victories happened in the fates of these children. I invited the guys to perform at the Junior New Wave and Kind Wave festivals, as well as take part in the Junior Eurovision selection contest, - said the producer and composer.
Yulianna Karaulova admitted that filming in a vocal show would be her first judging experience. Once the singer herself took part in the project "Star Factory". “This competition was a long-awaited entry to the big stage and gave invaluable experience of working with Alla Pugacheva, but most importantly, the friendship that was born there is still alive,” the artist summed up.
The premiere of the continuation of the project “You are super” will take place on the evening of February 10. 82 novice performers from 13 countries of the world will take part in the competition. The youngest of them is eight years old, and the oldest is eighteen. For the first time, guys from Syria and Germany will try their hand, and the stars of the first season, Roman Druzhinin and Daniil Khomyakov, will test themselves for the second time.
In February 2018, he named the new jury. In addition to the previously announced Sergey Lazarev, composer Igor Krutoy, singer Yulianna Karaulova, as well as composer and producer Viktor Drobysh will take the judges' chairs this season. The premiere will take place on February 10, the NTV press service told InterMedia.
- Before the start of the second season, I would like to wish all the members of the jury and myself to gain courage and try to be objective, no matter what. The first season revealed the potential of the project, but now, together with the participants, we must take a new professional height. I would like to participate in rehearsals more often, be more responsible for the level of preparation of children and see how the talents of our contestants are revealed, - said Victor Drobysh.
Music producer and composer Igor Krutoy planned to take part in the first season, but due to personal circumstances he was able to join the jury only in the second.
- I'm looking forward to the start, because, as a producer, I'm always glad to meet talented artists. The first season raised the bar high - the project became a unique event, I think there is not a single person in our country who would remain indifferent to the participants. Competition "You are great!" ignited new names on our stage: after the final credits, great professional victories happened in the fates of these children. I invited the guys to perform at the "Junior New Wave" and "Kind Wave" festivals, as well as take part in the Junior Eurovision selection contest and was glad to see ready-made, bright artists, with whom it is a pleasure to work, - commented Igor Krutoy.
Yulianna Karaulova at one time already participated in vocal television projects, but was in the place of the contestant.
“When I was offered to join the jury of the second season of “You are super!”, I immediately remembered how I myself was a member of the Star Factory at the age of 16,” says the singer. - Yes, this competition was a long-awaited entrance to the big stage and gave invaluable experience of working with Alla Pugacheva, but most importantly, the friendship that was born there is still alive. With the participants of the first season “You are super!” I met on the set of the New Year's show of the NTV channel "Super New Year", the meeting with young colleagues on the stage was a real pleasure. I am sure that each contestant "You are super!" will find on the project exactly what is most important for him.
In "You're great!" 82 children from 13 countries aged 8 to 18 will take part. Participants flew to the capital from different parts of Russia (from Sakhalin Island to the Republic of Dagestan), as well as from the CIS and Baltic countries: Azerbaijan, Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Latvia, Moldova, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, Estonia and South Ossetia. For the first time, guys from Germany and Syria are participating in the project. In addition, participants from the first season, Roman Druzhinin and Daniil Khomyakov, will try their hand at the competition for the second time.
The broadcast starts at 20.00.
