Kicking off the night was Cadence Baker who sang "Something's Got a Hold on Me" by Etta James. Judge Lionel Richie said that the growl in her voice and the presentation "off the charts." Meanwhile, Katy Perry thought Cadence had a "fantastic arrangement."

Lady K opted to sing "Before He Cheats" by Carrie Underwood. Despite her shaky start, Lady K nailed the performance as the song progressed. Ava Maybee then sang "Tell Me Something Good" by Chaka Khan. Lionel praised her for taking a risk, while Katy dubbed the performance "soulful" and "funky."
