Running in her lane! KEYLA absolutely shines with "I'd rather go blind" (Etta James) - Idol Top 5

Here's the thing about Keyla: as an artist, she really knows what she is and what she's not. There has been a consistency in her performances throughout this season that is admirable and of a very high level. We love Keyla's story, but we also love her heart, grit and perseverance. When she then steps up to the mic to sing a classic Etta James song like this, she absolutely shines! I thought it was a stunning performance, where she could simply be herself and do her thing. It wouldn't surprise me at all is Keyla ends up in the final three, and maybe even wins the ultimate prize! What do YOU think? Do you also feel she would be a deserving winner? Leave a comment!
