Interesting! I didn't make the Billie Holiday comparison, but yeah.

If I were a music reviewer, I would have a really hard time with this one and trying to describe/define her. On the one hand, her voice is essentially hideous, but that's not at all the same thing as "sucking." She doesn't suck, she just sounds so different that she needs to be judged by a whole 'nother set of measures than we would use for singers with more normal voices.

Anyway, good on her, I say. She probably takes a lot of shit for getting up there and doing her thing.
