Based purely on the strength of her voice and music, English rose Adele has made the world sit up and listen, in an industry dominated by gimmicks and raunchy outfits. Her second album, 21, has broken chart records the world over.
Adele has poured her heart into 21, which was heavily inspired by her just-ended relationship. 21 has influences of soul, country, blues, Motown and pop, and yet her sound is completely unique. There is no-one like Adele.
Entertainment Weekly said “21 is that rarest pop commodity: timeless.”
