The drama began with behind-the-scenes rumors, as Roberts, known for his powerful blend of soul, R&B, and gospel vocals, was seen as a frontrunner for the show’s top spot. However, according to insider sources, Underwood, a judge and mentor on the program, allegedly used her influence to undermine Roberts. Claims suggest she pressured producers to shift his performance slots to less favorable times, costing him crucial live audience exposure. There are even allegations that Underwood manipulated voting results and spread negative remarks to dim Roberts’ star power.

Tensions escalated when leaked texts and emails surfaced, revealing Underwood’s alleged concerns about Roberts’ prominence. One message reportedly stated, “We need to ensure Jamal doesn’t overshadow the others—it’s about balance, not just talent.” These revelations set social media ablaze, with #JusticeForJamal trending across platforms. Fans accused Underwood of abusing her power, though some defended her, arguing such tactics are standard in competitive shows.
