I remember Rebecca Sugar talking about what kind of music the gems listen to. She said that Garnet listens to Estelle. Assuming this is canon and not just a hypothetical scenario, how could both Garnet and Estelle, Garnet's voice actress, exist in the same universe?

Well, if gems can shapeshift, that includes their vocal chords, right? Gems can probably sound however they like. They could even mimic someone else's voice.

When gems fuse, they probably have to work together to decide on a form and a voice. Why not make the voice that of a singer they both like?

The exception to this theory is Malachite, who instead of having a unique voice, uses the voice of whichever gem is currently in control of the fusion. Jasper and Lapis had clearly different goals when they fused, so they didn't decide on a voice together. That would also explain why Malahite looks so monstrous and chaotic.

I think this theory makes sense, but if you can find any holes in it, tell me so I can update it.
