Members VirginiaHamilton Posted November 30, 2012 Members Share Posted November 30, 2012 As much as AI has done for Kelly Clarkson and Carrie Underwood, I've never thought that they (or rather, the folks that were dispatched to handle Fanny's career post-win) were adept in developing a (true) R&B talent - hence their saddling her with trendy songs that were a better fit for lesser singers. Even Jennifer Hudson -- in spite of being an Oscar-winner and a (relatively) working blacktress in Hollywood -- is a victim of weak songs undermining her wonderful voice. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members YRBB Posted October 10, 2014 Members Share Posted October 10, 2014 No new album for Adele in 2014 http://music-mix.ew.com/2014/10/09/adele-25-no-new-album/?hootPostID=a3c2dc2299f782bd04221b26a3cfe123 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted November 5, 2014 Administrator Share Posted November 5, 2014 Bringing the discussion over from Taylor's thread. I wonder how well her next album will do in sales. Those "21" numbers (30 million worlwide, 11 million in US) is a once and a lifetime thing (especially now) and I don't think it will be duplicated again. I think getting half will be a considered a major success. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted November 5, 2014 Author Members Share Posted November 5, 2014 Funny you bump this up as I JUST re-added her albums to my iPhone. I miss her, as she has a beautiful voice. Ive been using her in my alarm clock as I go to bed. I hope she comes out with new material bc it would be a shame to never hear her again 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Mr. Vixen Posted October 18, 2015 Members Share Posted October 18, 2015 I was just beginning to think she was gonna Lauryn Hill us and never release another album. That snippet is beautiful. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members alphanguy74 Posted October 19, 2015 Members Share Posted October 19, 2015 It's good that she's got something in the works again. One of the very few with REAL talent in the last 10 years, it would be a shame if she didn't release anything else. For some reason, starting in the 90's, recording artists had a MAJOR slowdown in their release schedules, nobody is really prolific with their albums anymore. For instance, compare Mariah, who has been recording for 25 years, she has released 14 studio albums. Elton John released 25 in his first 25 years, Dolly Parton 31, Johnny Mathis released 51! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members YRBB Posted October 22, 2015 Members Share Posted October 22, 2015 25 will be out November 20, with 11 tracks. It sounds as if "Hello" will be out tomorrow. Can't wait! Here's the article. I wasn't. She should take as much time as needed to make this great. Besides, as she explained in the article, life happened! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mr. Vixen Posted October 22, 2015 Members Share Posted October 22, 2015 I cannot wait. I just wish it was going to be more than 11 tracks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members All My Shadows Posted October 22, 2015 Members Share Posted October 22, 2015 WTF, why is Adele moping over a failed relationship news? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members YRBB Posted October 22, 2015 Members Share Posted October 22, 2015 (edited) I thought the same thing! The news isn't the content of the lyrics (which we haven't heard, really). The news is that the woman whose last album has sold nearly 30 million copies (11 million of them in the US), who has the highest digital sales album ever, who is universally adored for her voice and songwriting talent and managed to be a superstar despite the immense hangups our world has about overweight women, who has the most successful album of the decade so far, who had the #1 album two years in a row, and on and on and on, is releasing a new album. She'll slay! Hatuuurs to the left. Edited October 22, 2015 by YRBB 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members All My Shadows Posted October 23, 2015 Members Share Posted October 23, 2015 I get it. Bertha makes the people wet. I really don't think her being overweight has been a factor in anything she's done in years, though, especially considering she dropped a considerable amount of weight between 19 and 21 (the albums, not the ages). Everybody clings to Adele because "OMG she's a real singer!" and that's great, but my head isn't so easily turned by that anymore. If her brand is the "real singer" who sings about "real things," then I need to see some progression. I can take 30 albums of Britney sipping that bub in the club, but I can't take yet another Adele record filled with torch songs. It's time for her to use that voice in other ways.Look, I'm glad she's bad, but I'm not excited because for all we know, this song could have been a last-minute cut from 21. There's nothing new here at all, really. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
