Kamalei Kawa'a brought the soul of Hawai'i to "The Voice" stage with his Blind Audition of Bob Marley's “Redemption Song.” His heartfelt performance earned chair turns from Chance the Rapper and Reba McEntire, ultimately leading Kamalei to choose Team Chance and begin an unforgettable journey to the Top 20.

The Knockout Round became an unforgettable moment for Kamalei as he performed one of his favorite John Legend songs, “All of Me,” right in front of John himself. With the song holding special meaning for Kamalei and his wife, he poured his heart into every note. After competing against Maddi Jane, Chance chose Maddi—but in an incredible turn, John Legend stole Kamalei, praising his beautiful rendition, welcoming him to Team Legend, and advancing him into the Top 20.

The Battle Round brought Kamalei one of the most meaningful moments of his journey, sharing the stage with fellow Hawai'i artist Gabriel Goes for Israel Kamakawiwo'ole’s “Somewhere Over the Rainbow.” Miles away from home, Kamalei carried the love, longing, and beauty of Hawai'i into every note. Chance ultimately chose Kamalei, moving him forward in the competition with home and his people close to his heart.

For the Playoffs, Kamalei returned to his island roots with a soulful performance of Bob Marley’s “No Woman, No Cry.” In a meaningful full-circle moment, his journey on The Voice began and ended with the music of Bob Marley. Kamalei left the stage with his heart full, proudly closing an unforgettable chapter as a Top 20 artist on Season 25.
