Whatever was going on at 0:37...that vocal I had never even heard of this woman before and caught her at Coachella over the weekend because she was on at like 2 PM on a Sunday and I was like...sure, why not. I knew something was off when I heard the auto-tuned mic that she couldn't execute even the simplest of runs without. At times, she sounded like T-Pain or when Lil' Wayne leaned too heavy on the Auto-Tune button. Her stage banter was so off, too, LOL. Like...at one point, after the few people up close to the stage cheered after she was done, she remarked: "Imagine thinking that was good." Ask SHOOTER, LOL. At least she acknowledged that she has had some ups and downs since hitting the scene and that she is working on getting better. I appreciate self-awareness.

Thanks for the report Active Aggressive :dead I'm surprised Coachella invited her. She's not known for being...good.

Yeah, after talking to Shooter and doing some research since being home, I kinda feel bad that she has been so viciously attacked, but the internet (Twitter in particular) is known for being unnecessarily savage. Like...what's the point of being THAT nasty to someone who you have never met and never will meet and to someone who has done nothing to you personally? I will never understand it, but...that's the culture. Anyway, even with the special microphone, she DEFINITELY has improved since those earlier performances I caught (that Beetlejuice one...good lord!) Hopefully, she keeps working on improving.
As for Coachella inviting her, it seems that, other than giving spots to really well-established live performers, they also like to showcase young upstarts. It's not like she got a headline or even a sunset slot. She was on at a time when a lot of people were still passed out from the night before or too hungover to really care.
