Update: I think it's a done deal...Abi is going to win. And I think she can be...Superstar level for a long long time.

@@SnowboardJedi My third choice after Abi and Julia.

@@hectornegron9155 No argument. They are all really great

@@SnowboardJedi 👍👍

Me too!

I live in indio and thrilled by her journey. Hope she wins. Her voice is beautiful.

Relax lol

& Taylor can NOT sing anywhere near the level Abi is at!!! 👌🏻✔✔✔

@@markkiss4126does Abi write her own music?

@@123rockfan Yes she does! , This Isn't Over & It's All Love , both written by her , 2024 released singles... 🎼👌🏻🎤🔥🎶

She is a Whorshipper, no matter where her music career goes, she has an anointing to sing Worship Music I am sure

Hahahahaha that's a huge property in Bermuda Dunes owned by a good friend of mine. It's a 4 bedroom house and the back house is a 7 bedroom house which both are on airbnb and the warehouse is for weddings etc. That is NOT her car. That's the owner of the houses vehicle. Get your info correct. Want to know the owners name too? Sheesh.

​@@SherrellRomero-cj8ff Can i get your autograph?

It’s sad that when “some” couples go through divorce they lose sight that it isn’t just about their relationship, they have to think about the best interest of their kids whether they like each other anymore or not. We don’t truly know Abi’s background story or that of her father.. and it wouldn’t be the first time within the Idol show that the trolls will come out to play and start UNFAIRLY saying that the only reason dad showed up is bc his daughter has gained some fame, I hope that doesn’t happen to him but it’s rather common unfortunately. Abi’s old enough to make her own decisions/choices now and it’s truly nobody’s business anyway, just saying. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Edit: (Hideaway) Inside Your Eyes. I forgot to mention how much I like this song, great lyrics.. well done. 👍🏼😊🎶

@@shinew7185 thank you so much. Please check out calling of an Angel and tell me what you think

@@shinew7185 thanks so much. That means a lot. Really. That song was written about the love of my life. Didn’t work out. It crushed me.

That’s what they all say 😂😅

I honestly think that Abi is going to win Idol. If for reason that she doesn’t. She will still have a successful career singing

7 siblings

Maybe Secret Santa paid a visit....?🤔🎅😊

Parents divorced several years ago.

Kids are conceived, not acquired. Believe it or not, one partnership of a male and a female can potentially have 7 children within 7 years easily. During that period of time there is no telling how a relationship might unravel, but, I one could guess. Your comment is bizarre, as if the mother snatched them up from the street or went on some million dollar adoption spree. In any case, what does it freakin' matter?? The girl, Abi Carter, is beyond talented and why is Anyone suggesting, Anything beyond THAT!?!??

Child support, work,welfare

Define talented? You're comparing a newbie (Abi) to a woman (Taylor) who has been in the industry for 15-20 yrs. Not exactly a fair comparison There are multiple levels and layers when it comes to being talented. Singing is just one aspect of being talented. Yes Abi is a better singer than Taylor, but the jury is still out on how good a songwriter Abi is vs Taylor. As of right now, Taylor is superior to Abi in this regard, because Taylor's music connects and is wanted by a large demographic of young women. Taylor's music is on a whole other level that can't really be explained other than ppl want her music and go crazy for it. Ppl went nuts for her newest album that got released a few weeks ago. It remains to be seen how good a songwriter Abi is and whether her music will have the same connection to her fans that Taylor has with hers. You also have to look at the overall on stage presence that Abi has vs Taylor. In the very short sample size that we have had of her on Idol, Abi's potential is definitely there and has promise to be huge in 5-10 yrs time. Right now, Taylor owns the concert world. Her tickets sell out in minutes and the demand to see her in concert hasn't been seen since Garth Brooks in the 90's. Her concerts literally sell out in 10 mins. Then you have to factor in the level of entertainment value that Taylor puts into her shows. Her Era's Tour is insane. The amount of production that she has in that concert alone is crazy. However, as mentioned above, Taylor has 15-20 yrs experience, Abi has zero. Abi definitely has a future in music, there is no argument there, but will she get to Taylor Swift's level? Probably not as there is very few women that can match Taylor pound for pound. I see Abi getting to Carrie Underwood's level and that's nothing to sneeze at. Abi is a very good singer and is hands down the best in this season's Idol, but being a good singer is a pre-requisite to getting into the industry. You have to have all the other elements that make you desirable and in demand. Will Abi hit that level is the question and it's too early to answer just yet.

Why compare them? They are vastly different humans and musicians. That's like comparing Steven Tyler to Iam Tongi.

I agree

Don't push your luck that could be you or someone you love one day!

​@@pault5951 I've been there. I always try to pay it forward.

They live in a 5 bedroom house but Indio at the time of the 2006 purchase was a cheap place to live because of the very hot summer/falls. I'm quite sure their father paid for the house before he left.

Who frikkin’ cares?

They’re Mormon.

@@noahgiddings1094 Thank you

she didn't drop out of high school. She homeschooled rest of high school and did dual enrollment for college. It was said by her brother on another youtube video. Please don't fault her mom, when you don't know the whole story. Her mom seems pretty supportive of her and her music.

I agree 100% Venessa, beautifully said here. We do NOT know the whole story here between Abi and her mother. For all we know Abi offered to help her mother with her younger siblings, the best she could. Abi has a VERY strong, mature attitude. Lots of Confidence but can get more confident. I like how Abi is NOT flamboyant. She is a VERY humble, genuinely sweetheart of a girl.

@@bradcrawford1998 love her humbleness.

Hmmm I guess you didn't know she graduated from university with a psychology degree . Didn't realize the universities let people graduate with degrees with no former education.

Her family is LDS they develop kids at a young to speak in public and sing. All her sisters are fantastic singers

Agreed!

Name whos better

@@efrenmoreno3 Technically without naming the unique voices that you can't compare, quite a few others that are more vocally matured. However, on this show in most cases the voters get it wrong because it turns into a popularity and pump competition. I like watching the show for the best and ready talent regardless of winning. If you are a favorite of someone, it is your opinion just like I have my opinion. Your question to me implies that you believe Abi is the best vocalist. No changing your mind if that is what you think. I base my favorite on the Pop Style singers technical ability, upper and lower register, pitch and tone. Then, there are the unique singers and performers that are in their own category in which I choose as who was the best for me and that I would pay good money to go see in person and or buy their music. Abi can win this show because of what I mentioned above regarding voters. If not, I believe she will get even better over the next 2-3 years especially getting this exposure. She will at the least always be able to monetize her vocals in certain capacities just like others on this show now and in the past.

@@magic2506 I am NOT a musician, I was an athlete but love all kinds of music, mostly rock though since I am in my early 60's. I rarely watch Idol anymore cause the singers do VERY little for me. I can't fake it as many are raw and weak. I get downloads in you tube from AI and I saw Abi's audition of What was i made for video and instantly fell in love with her voice, style, and personality. Her whole image. I can't fake that. She has such a likeable personality. I know she cracks a little sometimes at the peak of her voice but it's minimal. All I know is i am following Abi and one other female singer I like a lot, the 25 year old that was adopted and found her family during the audition. I really like both of them and hope they finish 1,2 😊

@@bradcrawford1998 No doubt Abi can finish in Top 3. I was answering someone that was implying she is the best. Technically there are others this season that have more but, that doesn't guarantee the win. I like Abi and think she will be even better especially after this experience and her voice maturing over the next 2-3 years. She is a talented young lady. I am a musician and songwriter so for me I watch this competition not really looking for the winner but, the uniqueness, artistry and emotion evoking someone can bring in lieu of the typical commercial stuff that is put out.

Yeah, nobody really cares about that. Abi is amazing. Maybe you’re just too much into your church group.

@@WarHam.Saltsmoke you should care demon troll. And people do care. Obviously you're a nasty evil demon troll..The PreTribulation Rapture is about to happen and you're about to be left behind to experience hell on Earth unless you repent and get saved and filled with the Holy Spirit.. I suggest you worry more about yourself and getting saved then being a hateful nasty evil troll. Reporting you for harassment

This 🥇 wins the dumbest comment of the year award. You don’t have a clue what she believes in and that’s a personal/ private matter.

@@theliftexpert do you have to be so hateful! Oh yah, that's right you're an evil demon troll full of hate and anger. The PreTribulation Rapture is about to happen. Repent and get saved NOW! You're reported for harassment

@@theliftexpert nope. But your wins it

Why tf not

Delusional 🙄

did Bring Me To Life bring you back?

You’re free to like or dislike, but like mom always said, “if you don’t have something nice to say about someone, don’t say anything.”

You have absolutely no idea what you are talking about
