She's got the thing that can't be learned. She has the "gift." An impressive gift, too.
The rest can be learned, if she wants to learn it. She'll have to work at it, to find her own "voice" (as you said, which is true)... and to understand and communicate a song through emotion.
The "demon" is that most performers with a gift like this don't take the next step, because they don't have to. She could have a nice career and plenty of notoriety just showing off the basic gift she has now to the world.
I find that not much more than a "circus act," an exhibition, or a curiosity. But that's just my opinion. It's boring to me. It's the bearded lady, or the Hope Diamond, or the guy who can juggle 17 knives at once.
The choice is up to her. And she's awfully young to be making it.
The same thing happened to Judy Garland. She was a 12-year-old with a freakishly huge, mature voice. MGM took her (specifically Roger Edens), and taught the little girl with the big voice how to sing a song.
Took the raw talent, showed the girl how to use it, and developed an artist.
But how many in this world get to be a "Judy Garland?" How many with a gift like that are willing to work that hard? Very few.
Maybe she'll be one of them.
