So, the songs are young. Of course they are, they were written by a young person. When she is older she'll write different stuff. Can't you judge them in context, as songs an 18-year-old would write? Of course they're not going to measure up to UT's middle aged men, but that's not the right yardstick, is it?
What is her aim - does she want fame now, or is she prepared to work at it? So I'd say critique the songs in the right context, and give her advice on how to achieve her goal ...
