The Voice truly is the chance of a lifetime.
That's something Adam David now knows after winning season 27 of the NBC singing competition series.
After weeks of competing on Team Michael Bublé, the rock-and-blues artist came out on top during the May 20 season finale, beating out Team John Legend's Renzo, Team Adam Levine's Lucia Flores-Wiseman, Team Kelsea Ballerini's Jaelen Johnston and fellow Team Bublé hopeful Jadyn Cree.
So, what does the 35-year-old guitarist from Fort Lauderdale, Fla. earn for being voted America's next music superstar? Plain and simple, a recording contract with Universal Music Group.
But since the show premiered in 2011, there have also been reports that winners receive a massive cash prize of up to $100,000, though NBC has never confirmed the amount.
However, season 15 winner Chevel Shepherd seemingly confirmed the mega paycheck after taking home the title in 2018.
Asked how she’d be spending her paycheck, Shepard—just 16 at the time—told People, "Maybe a car. We had to postpone getting my permit because of The Voice so when we get back [home], I have to get it.”

She added, "I would love to have a Chevelle because that’s my name. So me and my dad are probably going to get one and build a ’72 [Chevrolet] Chevelle together."
Meanwhile, season 18 champ Todd Tilghman admitted the prize would change "the trajectory of his life."
"I don't have any immediate plans to make any drastic changes tomorrow," Tilghman told the outlet after his 2020 win. "I don't know for sure the direction my life will go in. There's a possibility that that money might pay the bills for a little while."

As for the show’s newest winner? He’s just grateful to come out victorious.
"It could have been any one of us," the songwriter exclusively told E! News backstage May 20 alongside coach Bublé just moments after his win. "I saw my mom in the audience. I know she's crying somewhere right now. I've struggled, I've fought for this. This has been such a big opportunity and the fact that I get to bring home the truly is just an unbelievable gift."
And his coach thinks David is the same unbelievable gift. Comparing his vocals to the likes of Jelly Roll and Teddy Swims, Bublé told E!, "The moment I heard him, I said, 'Man, this is supposed to be happening. This is what America loves and it's their music.' I just love it. A blue collar dude who dug deep, dug in the ditches and just grinded for the work."
