Even her voice without trying is so perfect.

Ikr i cant even fathom how people say shes not good

[@kenziefanofariana3478]

I swear I see you every Billie video😂❤️

[@totalpartykill999]

she just needs to develop more and add some volume to her voice. but fortunately she has alot of time to explore her full range.

[@melaniejulissa2393]

Agreed

[@scsclassics]

VERY NOT GOOD

[@lovelight6973]

I can see her doing blues or jazz when she's older. If she ever switch's musical genres. She has ability to do whatever she wants.

[@laziiner1682]

Everyone does, you just need to work hard, and do whatever you want to, its not a gift, she praticed a lot to be where she is now

[@kelb6073]

Well, she has a soft singing voice. But I mean, so does Nora Jones. I noticed it is hard to hear her a bit. But I don't see how it makes her talentless. She has a good voice. People just have black and white thinking I guess

[@SkinnyBeGhetto]

She whispers

[@tevendranvadivaloo7665]

i was like that because i didnt understand her music so when i understood it i loved her music

[@lovelight6973]

I've heard her get some notes other videos. She's got the voice for it. I think she's whisper what comes to mind and playing with sounds and notes.
