A 12-year-old with this much talent can definitely go places!

At Black’s age, very few people in the world have a voice that’s maturely developed enough to pull off these kinds of covers and without difficulty, could sing every note with ease. She confidently sang in the middle of a busy street, grabbing the onlooker’s attention towards her.

Anybody who sees her sing is sure to want more and more!

Her vocal riffs and runs are flawless, and she even sings the song in a higher octave than the original.

Aside from that, she performs it with a clean vibrato as well. Some singers have difficulty finding their own vibrato and Black has already developed hers at an early age. Regardless of whether she has a vocal coach or not, her talent is enough to take her places and to launch her to new heights all over the world.
