The Voice UK's Will.i.am has defended the success of the show's artists along with Sir Tom Jones.
After three series the BBC One show has so far failed to produce a chart topping star from any of its winners or runners up.
The show's most successful act to date is Becky Hill – who scored a Number 1 in 2013 with Oliver Heldens – but she was eliminated before the final of the first series.
Speaking ahead of the fourth run, Will and Sir Tom both insisted it was not the show's job to produce huge selling recording artists.
"It is about getting in and getting your foot in the door. It doesn't make you a star, it gets you a record contract if you win," Sir Tom said.
He explained to The Sun newspaper: "Even when you get a contract it doesn't mean you are going to get a hit record.
"It is a combination of things that come together. You can't say, 'Here you are, you have won The Voice, that's it'. It is a beginning."
Will.i.am was quick to point out: "The Black Eyed Peas got signed in 1997 but we didn't have a hit until 2004.
"We were left free to develop at our own pace."
He continued: "To say Leah McFall was supposed to have a hit in six months or a year, that's not fair to her.
"Sometimes you have to let a person's career develop."
And Will took a swipe at Simon Cowell and The X Factor and attributed their success in the charts down to money.
"It is different when you think of that other machine, that person in that machine has a budget with what they do with the winner, he said. "That doesn't happen on this format but it allows people to have a platform and be on television and allow the UK to be a witness to their talent. This is a starting point which people like myself never had."
It was previously confirmed when The Voice UK 2015 begins with the launch date set for next Saturday night at 7PM on BBC One.
