So I did some reading about her when this came up on my feed recently - I was intrigued by just the sheer level of horribleness I was hearing. Apparently she is a Masters student at Oxford with a bachelor's in sociology. This is 100% performance art to get a viral reaction, there's really not many other explanations for such well-produced, insanely horrible vocals.
That, or microtonal singing is truly the next frontier and she's an absolute pioneer

It's hard to believe she was serious when she made this. I mean, it's just so intentional about so many glaringly wrong things (such as the layered vocals all singing out of key or how the layered vocals just come in at really bizarre places). The extremely weak voice can't be fixed in post-production, but pitch correction could at least get her in key (though the held out notes at the end would still sound just as pathetic, but just not off key like they are now). The lyrics also seemed so over-the-top stereotypical that it does make me wonder whether it was made as some kind of prank or something. Plus, the verse melody isn't really a melody. It's almost just like talking while vaguely hitting random notes.

OMG yes, the comments are indeed gold.
I attempted to run this through Antares Auto-Tune on Pro Tools and now my computer is on fire and my wife left me.Whatever they’re playing at Guantanamo Bay, should be replaced by this on loopShe's not only hitting the notes, she's beating them upHas anybody checked on Rick Beato? I‘m worried he‘s going to harm himself if he hears this.

I'd like to know the information being researched if it were indeed part of a sociology test, just out of curiosity.
There was that older woman who went viral a few years back because she was terrible, she came after Rebecca Black and the whole "Friday" thing, which, IMO, isn't any better than this shit just because it was auto-tuned to fuck and back. I want to say the woman I'm referencing was doing a country kind of thing and it was just a situation of her having enough cash to blow on recording a song and making a video for it.
I mean, shit, YouTube is FULL of shitty "musicians", so how is it these "diamonds" in the rough can be picked out and made viral?The Karmic Law is not kismet. It is not fate but cause and effect. It is a taskmaster to the unwise; a servant to the wise.
