The Voicehas come a long way since it first premiered in 2011.
You would think a show that successful would prove to be equally rewarding for its winners.
However, that’s certainly not the case, especially for its first champion Javier Colon.

Colon wonThe Voice’s inaugural season in 2011 with coach Levine.
Colon was one of those artists, but is now signed with Concord Music (viaPopSugar).
BeforeThe Voice,Colon was tied to Capitol Records.

That relationship ended after the label wanted to market the singer-songwriter as an R&B star.
When that didn’t work out, they dropped him (viaPlaybill).
The “Stitch by Stitch” singer still performs regularly.
Not even the pandemic can stop him.
Back in March, he started aQuarantine Concert Seriesthat can be viewed on hisFacebookpage (via theHartford Courant).
It shows that he’s truly making the most of the current situation.
