Four music superstars, Diddy, Meghan Trainor, DJ Khaled, and Charlie Walk, currently hold the fate of international performers who vie for stardom. The four finalists vying to keep their spot and become the chosen one to be included in the superstar lineup have faced several challenges that include mental and physical strain. They have performed in front of thousands, signed deals that relate to contracts, and have had their "leash" taken off. They are fully tenured artists during Week Four, ready to give it their all in order to reach their dream of being a renowned star in the entertainment world.

Week Four is for the Final Four; each artist must show their skill and give it their best, or risk leaving the show before becoming a superstar. The four players begin by performing a tonal rendition of the famous hit "Remember the Name" by Ed Sheeran and Fort Minor featuring Yelawolf. They fought through various mental exercises during previous weeks, and now it is their physical capabilities that will be challenged at the start of the show.

Furthermore, the contestants perform various musical genres, including rock, pop, or soul. The judges ask them to showcase their creativity by creating their own excellent rendition of their favourite songs. All that said, the real competition heats up when the final four contestants shift into high gear and demonstrate their skills and energy on stage. Live performances and songs are essential elements that define the progression of the show, but the weekly challenges are what really sets The Four: Battle for Stardom apart from other singing-contest shows.

The challenges are nothing like what musicians face when they come into the music industry. The show offers various obstacles that challenge them mentally, physically, and musically, and only the strongest contestants can withstand the challenges. The most recent of these challenges is called "The Oath," and while it is a mental challenge, it demands that the artists get inside each other's minds. This episode captures how these challenges negatively affect the relationships between the performers, testing their mental strength, endurance, resiliency, discipline, composure, and teamwork.

The Four contestants continue to be mentored by the series' superstar judges, with each judge creating a bond with each one of the artists present on the show. The judges support the contestants throughout the challenges, ensuring that they get the motivation and inspiration to overcome any obstacles that might come their way.

As the competition intensifies, so does the requirement for each artist to give it their all. The judges give two of the contestants the opportunity to sing together on stage, showcasing their vocal range while seeking the judges' approval. This challenges them to perform in front of a huge crowd and perform in such a way that the audience is speechless while they perform.

The judges grew overly impressed by one of the four finalists' performances, and were later compelled to push them over the top with a "Comeback Challenge." The promotion requires the lowest performer to face one of the standby singers, whom they will sing against. The contestant who earns the most votes from the panel will retain their spot on the list of artists advancing to the next week's finale.

The show ends on a nail-biting conclusion that has left fans asking for more. Overall, Week Four presents audiences with some of the most talented performers globally and the guidance of music industry legends. With the possibility of becoming an international superstar, The Four: Battle for Stardom continues to capture the hearts of diehard music lovers.
