He’s back, but will he succeed in convincing the coaches to (unknowingly) give him a second chance? This Saturday in The VoiceZazie and Mika will have the pleasure of finding a candidate they had not selected seven years earlier, during season 7 which they shared with Matt Pokora and Florent Pagny. Indeed, on March 11, 2017, Quentin Nicodémia young 22-year-old singer from Marseille, came to defend himself on the title Do not leave me by Jacques Brel. Unfortunately, none of the four coaches deigned to turn around, and the young Marseillais left. But after seven years of absence, and now aged 29, Quentin Nicodémi decided to give himself a second chance, that the production ITV Studios France granted him !
Thus, this Saturday February 24, 2024, during the third session of blind auditions of The Voice
the young man, who now calls himself Odem, will try to convince the two coaches he had already worked with, Zazie and Mika, and the latest recruits Vianney, Bigflo and Oli. Interviewed by TF1 Info, the man who seems to have moved and is now from Corsica, claims to have gained maturity and vocal power. But will that be enough to push the coaches to buzz it? This time, Odem will distance himself very much from Jacques Brel, and will propose a cover “hypnotizing” of HabibiTamino’s hit.
Zazie recognized his voice immediately
According to revelations made by TF1, Odem will be surprised to discover that Zazie is far from having forgotten him. Indeed, although turned around, the singer will immediately recognize her voice ! Even if she had not chosen it seven years earlier, its vocal range had visibly touched her, to the point of recognizing it among thousands, this Saturday, February 24. After its failure in the seventh season The Voice which was won by Lisandro Cuxi
, Odem, disappointed, chose to put his musical career on hold and launched into entrepreneurship.
However, the young man who will soon celebrate his 30th birthday, more passionate about music than business, had finally returned to his first love: “I had a restaurant, I sold it. I met incredible artists with whom I made my first tracks. I can never thank them enough. I discovered what creation was, I learned to reveal myself in front of people. I joined a school, I worked on my voice for over a year every day. In 2020, I chose to live only on this and I took Odem as my artist name, a diminutive of my last name“ he explained. We look forward !
