SOLO MALE

The five remaining solo male artists have packed their bags and moved onto the second destination at Judges' Houses. This time, they find themselves in Heraklion, a huge archaeological site on the Greek island of Crete dating back to the Minoan civilisation. Here, they will perform for you, the voting BuzzJack public, once more. This time, they're bidding to become one of twelve artists at Live Shows. As well as that, there's another theme and this time the artists will be performing a song barely streamed on Spotify, one that hasn't quite cracked the streaming code.

How it works:

For Judges' Houses: Part Two, voting will be private.

When you've listened to all of the artists perform, you should cast your votes by completing THIS form, ranking the performances from favourite to least favourite.

For those voting who have entered one of the artists into the competition, you should rank all five performances in all categories.

As always, even if you are not competing in The Pop Factor you can vote too!

When voting closes, the four male solo artists with the highest scores will proceed to Live Shows while ONE artist will be eliminated from the competition and will not be going through.

However, the competition doesn't end there. For the final time, the artists eliminated from the competition in this round will be eligible to compete for the chance to return alongside the other eliminated artists and claim The Gamu Nhengu Gold Card.

Voting will close on Sunday 25 October 2026, 17:59 BST

Reminder: voting is private. To vote, click the link to the form above.

So, without further ado, it's time for the solo male artists to take on the second part of JUDGES' HOUSES in a bid to make it to Live Shows...

Just submitted my votes. Anonymised comments:

01 Yet another incredible song from them. A bit of a powerhouse.

02 One of my faves played by them. Also something a little bit different for them.

03 This was a great discovery. Definitely preferring their more recent choices to their earlier ones.

04 Also really good, just doesn’t appeal to my tastes as much as the top 3.

05 Oops I think this is the clear rank outsider in this category.

Overall a really strong round for the Solo Males. cheer

Whoever is Tom’s mentor…

I would like you to send me a full DM at the end of this competition/whenever Tom is booted out, explaining your reasons for not sending the Gillette song, it would have been a guaranteed win and I’m devastated kink

(If it’s because it’s not in the bottom 10 streaming, I’m on holiday and too lazy to check so you don’t need to explain that) lol

I actually checked after I mentioned the song being used in the 'results thread' - its not bottom 10. Its bottom 30, it had over a million streams. So was no where near his bottom 10.
