"I just looked at my notes, and these three were my Top 3 after the Blinds, just so you know," John said in a recent interview, according to People.
"That's major," he added. "That doesn't always stay the case. Some people, they show me something different later in the competition."
However, John explained that KJ, Syd and Lucas each showcased star power from the start.
"I could just tell from these three artists' performances in the Blinds that they were all special, and it makes sense that they're in this place that they are now," he said.
John went on to praise his The Voice team, noting that each singer brings something unique to the stage.
"Each of them is such a talented artist," John gushed.
"They're all so gifted as vocalists, as performers, and they bring something distinct to the competition. I couldn't have picked three better representatives for Team Legend going into the Top 9."
Nine contestants are set to compete in The Voice semifinals, which will air Monday, April 13 on NBC.
In addition to KJ, Syd and Lucas, the remaining contestants advancing in Season 29 include coach Adam Levine's team members Alexia Jayy, Jared Shoemaker and Jeremy Keith, as well as coach Kelly Clarkson's team members JW Griffin, Liv Ciara and Mikenley Brown.
John joined The Voice as a coach for Season 16 in 2019. He won his debut season with singer Maelyn Jarmon.
John proceeded to coach Seasons 17-22. After taking a break for Season 23, John coached artists on The Voice's 24th and 25th seasons.
