Hello..it was the blind audition and Beyonce "best thing I never had."

[@alonzomason7702]

Totally!!!

[@homebody6353]

That sort of breath control and range, and the way she sang those notes… as a 16 year old child, I mean sheesh. She’ll be a master of her voice before she’s 30.

[@carmenvanwyk8819]

She deserved a 4 chair turn❤

Truly!

Yes, she did. I think if they already have a certain singer they won't turn. Is this turn?

I'm here to commend Mom on her dressing as a child even though it's tv 😍 Also she said I'm only 16 I don't have that kinda emotion. Tells me she's focused on other things 🥰✨️ God bless her.

[@feliciaholley-loveless2343]

She’s not a baby. I’m sure Bukky dressed herself

[@Feltexperience]

I can see the spiritual richness in her voice as was with Whitney Houston. Remember she is from the church and she sings with confidence because she has the church behind her with support of love! That's worth so much when you are young and walking into your dream!! Plus mum is really a big inspiration to her decision like so many young women developing their vision and their place in this society. I believe she has just been exposed to be presented her flowers of success. She is amazing and I'm proud to see young people acquire their vision and fulfill their dreams!!

[@janetturnersnipes295]

So true and VERY well said!!! 🙌🙌💞💞

[@ShaynaHibbard]

To me she better then WH was

[@1Chicanery]

Both of her vocal folds move at the same time at parts of her range. That's why she sound like harmonies. Amazing!

[@mamajane85]

Stunning voice😢 Gave me chills! l I've never heard a voice like hers, very unique!

[@Orlanzepol123]

How did they think it was 2 or 3 people singing? Maybe I should listen to the song with my eyes closed to see if I can hear more than one person . 😂

[@motophone8794]

Same. The anointing.

[@desmondgurley]

Love me some JHud 😍😍😍!!! And the fact she's the main one that picked up on this beautiful young lady's different notes reflects on her own gift to teach ❤❤❤

[@kateg7298]

Bukky has a wonderful richness and timbre to her voice. She's only 17 and her voice is going to become warmer and expand in her midrange as she gets a little older. It's unique in that she has a sound that we haven't heard in at least 30 years. No vocal gyrations and runs - she goes straight to the note with a purity of sound that Karen Carpenter had.

[@rosemaryrogers1478]

Now Karen Carpenter🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🥰🥰🥰...enuff said....

[@td5737]

Yes!! Clear melody

[@jadesmith7983]

I like how you described the technical aspects of her voice and potential.

[@seanamcgee]

I do agree that Bukky doesn't need any of the vocal acrobats, she doesn't beat around the bush when she sings. She simply goes straight to the note and fully attacks it with a vengeance that we haven't seen EVER!

[@sharonpaige1322]

Wowwww! Both ladies were incredible in the battle, but Bukky has a different quality to her voice that just stood out. Amazing!

[@1SGTDiva]

I'm very shocked that only Will and Jennifer were the only ones that turned around. She is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. Her voice, her range, her control..... is out of this world💯🎯🥰🤗🍁❤️

[@Vee316]

I was very confused by that. 🤷🏽‍♀️👀

[@sadieesourced1724]

They second guessed themselves

[@taylor6109]

The two that mattered turned around because they were the two that can do the most with her voice, image etc

[@princessiman5809]

This makes me so happy to see a woman who looks like me accepted the way she is and recognized for something other than comedy. When I was growing up I NEVER thought we’d live in a world where this would happen even some of the time.

[@jodymichelle4965]

Females that can reach higher notes and sound good are a dime a dozen. I get excited when they have a woman with an amazing lower register and her is so rich and full but still flexible. Her voice is exceptional.

[@redcheekgirl3434]

I know right? I love hearing contraltos.

[@redsteddi]

I agree 👍

[@ViktoriaJellybeanPhillips]

This young lady was born an Angel,born singing,,🌹🌹🌹🥀🌹🥀💕💕🤣

[@deloisturner7499]

Yes her voice is excellent! But to say females who have higher registers dime a dozen! Guess you haven’t really heard those who are amazing. People who don’t appreciate good female singers and can’t sing a single note do usually make remarks like that!!!

[@jodymichelle4965]

@ I can carry a tune better than a lot of people and I absolutely appreciate a good voice of any kind and any genre but females hitting high notes and doing it well is far more common than a rich, lower register.

[@DawnLDiva4Life]

Her voice is extremely trained. She's amazing!!
