After a public vote, he and L.O.V.E. were the bottom two acts.
Last night, they each sang again in a final attempt to stay in the competition.
Williams performed Forget You by Cee Lo Green, and was eliminated.
Judge Stan Walker was disappointed in the result.
"Taye is the man and this isn't right. I'm inspired by him, I'm gutted he's gone."
Williams said he would reassess his future but still hoped for a career in show business.
"It's not about how you get knocked down, it's how you get back up."
Last night's result leaves Tom Batchelor, Benny Tipene, Fletcher Mills, Whenua Patuwai, Cassie Henderson, Jackie Thomas, Anna Wilson, Maaka Fiso, Gap 5, L.O.V.E. and Moorhouse in the competition.
