      @@saftobulle No doubt she has, when I said she has raw talent I didn't mean it in that way. What I wanted to point out is that she has a really solid skill for singing and playing instruments compared to most mainstream pop artists nowadays. And part of that is talent, cause not anyone is able to ever sing like that, but definitely most of it is her merit.

    Laufey, in my opinion, is an unequivocally sublime artist. Not only is her music cathartically euphonious, but her personality, emotions, and authenticity is reflected within the art she creates. To top it all off, she’s bringing Jazz, my favorite genre, to the forefront of my generation’s attention. This, I consider incredibly valuable. Her work truly is a testament to the fact that Jazz is not a dying art. But rather, an ever-evolving entity of timeless beauty.
