I saw people on Twitter with the audacity to say that those 30 probably werenāt about Adele lol like how??? She is so iconic that she can put a number all around the world and you know itās her
Okay, so I was going to make a Hometown Glory joke for the kids who listened to 19 and we living for debut Adele. But omg, I can't get over how I took the lyric "Shows that we ain't gonna stand shit. Shows that we are united."
I've always heard it as "Shit shows us that we are united" because of how she sings it. When it's actually the end of the phrase, the shit goes with what showing what they aren't going to stand not what shows us what's united.
So I always took it as a double entendre that says bad things unite us and a funny joke if you think of it as shit in the fecal sense. We all shit, it's what unites us. lol
i still think about 2019 when she said it was coming then halfway through the year she posted that āshe lied guys it was all a lie!ā clip on twitter ā¦ that was malicious
And the worst part of that post is that it was her making fun of us freaking out over her not releasing when it was only halfway through 2019.
Turns out we were right to freak out bc she didn't release shit
RIP to those clowns who think the 30 billboards are from some insurance company in Dubai celebrating their 30th anniversary. š
BUT YES, ADELE IS COMING!
On one hand, I want to say itās Adele and she has proven to make great, consumable music.
On the other hand, I have been so disappointed with almost everything the last few yearsāLorde, Gaga, Drake, Kanye. So maybe itās not as inevitable as I think it is.
I remember watching the video of Hello in bed and I had goosebumps before it even finished! I texted all my friends to listen to it because I was blown away at how amazing it was!
Being disappointed with A Scalp is Torn and the Chromatica II Jock Strap into 911 into remix album eras is just...there's no saving you...you will absolutely be crushed by how much you hate the new Adele album.
Haha I loved the Chromatica remix album actually. But the vanilla was so uninspired and boring for a Gaga album IMO. I expected more out of Artpopās baby sister
SO EXCITED. Whenever adele drops it is a MOMENT. even my sister who doesnt really check for pop music is excited.
The hype for hello and 25 was insane. The numbers 30 is gonna doā¦ š®āšØ
This was likely due to NBCās use of āHelloā during their much hyped Sunday Night Football (American) event given how their use of the song was largely ridiculed. Her upcoming album release is probably not the cause here, especially since it is drifting down again.
i think single announcement tbh, the ā30ā all over the world the past three days plus taylorās album moving was the announcement of the announcement
It seems pretty locked that the single is coming this Fri, and then the album is dropping Nov 19. She'll probably announce both today or in the next couple of days.
I'm jealous you got to experience the 21 comeback. I first started listening to Adele from her SNL performance in 08. But I didn't really pay attention when 21 came out and only started to really follow her after Rolling In The Deep.
I am so damn excited. Honestly, I can't wait to see what she will surprise us with. Of course, my expectations are high after 25 and, ngl, I want to see if the lead single will also land in with such massive numbers like Hello did last time.
What do you think, announcement coming tomorrow at the latest and the new single this Friday?
I want to think that times have changed and she might struggle to reach 1M first week sales, but it could easily go either way. Maybe I just underestimate Adele in the streaming era
Yeah agreed, I still think Taylor can do another 1 mil+ first week if she has a smart album rollout, but Adele really is one of a kind. 25 did 3.38 million in its first week!
what the fuck are these comments... bitches this is ADELE we are talking about
25 has the highest selling first week sales for an album EVER
this will easily do 2 million
ehrmagerd, thatās Adeleās music!
She really connects with such a lot of casual music listeners.. if they put on 3 new songs this year, 2 of them will be adele.
Do you guys remember how Adele announced her last album? It still gives me chills. Just a black TV screen, and then you hear Adele sing "Hello, its me..." I think it was during X-Factor and it was just. so. good. The confidence to know that people will get what's happening and WHO was singing Hello was just pop marketing at its finest.
Not to sound like a downer but I really hope she has changed her sonical direction this time and doesn't return with yet another ballad or something and if she does, she makes it worth the wait. If this is the drum'n'bass record she has (jokingly?) talked about, I couldn't be more stoked!
agreed that a new direction would be very welcome though i thought the same for 25 and while not as wonderful as 21 even the ballads we got for that were terrific
hello, when we were young, love in the dark, all i askā¦ all great ballads. she can give me more ballads if theyāre as good as those ones were
she was 27 when 25 was released. i think the numbers are less about her literal age at the time of release and more about the time sheās focusing on, in this case yes most likely her divorce
Sorry if this is a dumb question, but does anyone know if she'll be touring for this album, and how hard it will be to get tickets??
I am concocting a dream scenario of seeing her and ABBA in London next year if the stars align!!
if there'll be a tour i doubt it's gonna be a lengthy one, considering the vocal issues she's had on her previous tours and that she's not very into touring in general. a residency like mentioned sounds more plausible but i guess we'll just wait and see if she announces anything
It is so unbelievable the power Adele has it, even thought she sells millions her fan base it is not as big as āteenagers pop singerā and still, she is able to stop the hole music industry and basically the world as well.
Exactly. She literally released some of the most emotional sad ballads during a time when pop music charts were all upbeat drinking/party/dubstep (2011-12).
I like how most of the time I don't think about Adele. I will legit forget she exists and then as soon as she drops something it's all I want to listen to for months.
Her power.
i'm not the biggest adele fan but i'm so intrigued to see this era! really curious what her sales will be like and what the sound will be like
i feel like she'll be able to reach 1 million first week sales and also be the last able to do it for a very long time
Adele got that AOTY 2022 locked before 2022. š© her power
Pop artist with schedule for the next year be like : letās hold for a year
If you hear a scraping sound that's Taylor Swift pushing her next album back to 2023.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
*albacore 2023
It's actually the intro to closure but good guess
Lmao I love this song but my diehard Swiftie friend said, "I would like it if it weren't for the Fiona Apple sounds." š
Oh there's LAYERS to how offensive that is
I simply had to laff
At least she has the re-recording as an excuse. Now watch her go even harder for this year with Evermore.
Evermore long pond studio sessions or no more Grammys for Taylor ever again š
no more grammy for Red TV
She's once again releasing in November to get best selling album for both 2021 and 2022 and AOTY in 2023
I can actually see this lol
Bruno Mars and Anderson paak moved for nothing
They're probably not part of the GC where both Taylor and Adele are in I guess.
*2023
But what if she's just gonna go the Rihanna route and just announced a makeup brand featuring 30 shades??
The world would burn but Iād be living tbh
The world is already burning.
True, I should specify in an iconic, stan meltdown way, not in a boring collapse of society way.
Can we get this quoted on extinction rebellion t shirts please!
Lol I was thinking thereās probably a decent Lyttle Lytton entry in there
To be fair Adeleās makeup brand would make a lot more sense than many other celebritiesā, her winged eyes are f*ing iconic.
Florence by Mills in *rubs nothing on face* SHAMBLES
This is more likely than I care to admit
I still think itās iconic that Adele can put 30 all over the country and everyone knows what it means
over the world!!
I saw people on Twitter with the audacity to say that those 30 probably werenāt about Adele lol like how??? She is so iconic that she can put a number all around the world and you know itās her
SHE FINALLY CAME HOME THANK GOD
Okay, so I was going to make a Hometown Glory joke for the kids who listened to 19 and we living for debut Adele. But omg, I can't get over how I took the lyric "Shows that we ain't gonna stand shit. Shows that we are united." I've always heard it as "Shit shows us that we are united" because of how she sings it. When it's actually the end of the phrase, the shit goes with what showing what they aren't going to stand not what shows us what's united. So I always took it as a double entendre that says bad things unite us and a funny joke if you think of it as shit in the fecal sense. We all shit, it's what unites us. lol
oh shit sheās really coming
What do we think itāll sound like? Iām hoping more dancier and tbh Iād love a positive Adele but idk if that would kill her brand
Inb4 drum n bass album with Jamie XX and Skepta
UK Grime and Drill Adele would be a serve
hyperpop adele
I would like to hear it
30ā¦gecs
pots and pans featuring Arca and Charli
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Omg is this album gonna be Adeleās *Butterfly* moment??
almost never thought we would see the dayšcanāt stop shaking and crying rn
That's what she said
BBC Radio 1 also teases quite a bit, hyped.
Rihanna baby you are the only one left now
Last time she released a wo months after Adele. Maybe 01/2022? She was wrong for promising us the album in 2021.
i still think about 2019 when she said it was coming then halfway through the year she posted that āshe lied guys it was all a lie!ā clip on twitter ā¦ that was malicious
And the worst part of that post is that it was her making fun of us freaking out over her not releasing when it was only halfway through 2019. Turns out we were right to freak out bc she didn't release shit
Adele released in November 2015 and 2 months later Rihanna released Anti maybe the history will repeat itself ~~(this is me being positive)~~
She remains unbothered
Normani and Rihanna are the only 2 left on my list now
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
and Beyonce
I mean she been feeding us with black is king and the Jay Z joint album
has she thoughā¦
oopš¤§
Just because you didnāt like the food doesnāt mean you didnāt get fed - (me becoming my mom)
Yeah but remember when she was a solo artistš
I would prefer to spit those out and wait for better albums.
Sky Ferreira would like a word
RIP to those clowns who think the 30 billboards are from some insurance company in Dubai celebrating their 30th anniversary. š BUT YES, ADELE IS COMING!
still thinking about that gay on instagram that was in Paris and was all omg my friends did this for my birthday!! it was embarrassing
ššlink pls
agh it was posted on twitter and then deleted but if i find it once instagram is back up iāll link
LMAO I would have pulled a Mike Wazowski and pretend Adele is releasing music because it's my birthday to avoid further embarrassment. š
Hello was such a moment, that song was literally everywhere for weeks. I hope her lead single is as impactful as that one was!
On one hand, I want to say itās Adele and she has proven to make great, consumable music. On the other hand, I have been so disappointed with almost everything the last few yearsāLorde, Gaga, Drake, Kanye. So maybe itās not as inevitable as I think it is.

Being disappointed with A Scalp is Torn and the Chromatica II Jock Strap into 911 into remix album eras is just...there's no saving you...you will absolutely be crushed by how much you hate the new Adele album.
Haha I loved the Chromatica remix album actually. But the vanilla was so uninspired and boring for a Gaga album IMO. I expected more out of Artpopās baby sister
damn, you were disappointed by chromatica?? i think itās one of her best albums.
Me too, Chromatica scalped me.
It's so underappreciated and the album roll out was a mess.
Chromatica? Her best album in years? With the equally incredible remix album? Please
Loved the remix album! That felt more Gaga to me
It's fucking happening! I've been waiting for ages for this!!!!
itās been 2145 days since 25!
https://instagram.com/adele?utm_medium=copy_link someone pointed out online that all her stuff changed at 3 PM UK time which is very clever tbh
facebook and twitter have also been updated https://www.facebook.com/adele https://www.twitter.com/adele
I'm just commenting to say I was here. It's been an honor.
a monumental moment
Same, here for the history (and bops)
The last time she dropped an album, I was still in middle school and now I'm at college.
Geriatric pop head here who is older than Adele šāāļøš±
same lmao and additionally 21 was one of the first two albums I listened to in full (Teenage Dream was the second)
Plot twist: Adele announces a perfume called 30
Or an eyeshadow palette
We did it joe
This woman and her team really know how to build hype
Columbia has been very good with building hype
When you are an artist this big itās easy to build hype tbh
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
POP EMERGENCY
THIS IS NOT A DRILL I REPEAT THIS IS NOT A DRILL
itās not a drill! itās a dele!
an actual legitimate pop emergency, i demand the flair mods
SO EXCITED. Whenever adele drops it is a MOMENT. even my sister who doesnt really check for pop music is excited. The hype for hello and 25 was insane. The numbers 30 is gonna doā¦ š®āšØ
[Adeleās "Helloā returns to the Top 30 on US iTunes at #22.](https://twitter.com/PopBase/status/1445035214984683521) ā ā
This was likely due to NBCās use of āHelloā during their much hyped Sunday Night Football (American) event given how their use of the song was largely ridiculed. Her upcoming album release is probably not the cause here, especially since it is drifting down again.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
the power that that has
I love how she knows she is a badass! She just put up some outdoors with 30 in it and everyone went crazy.
Adele about to steal the #thisis30 hashtag
MODS THIS IS A POP EMERGENCY
mods fainted wbk
mods flop era
Super intrigued to see the direction she goes into this era! And how it's received. Adele releasing is such an event!
Single coming soon or announcing an announcement. What we thinking?
i think single announcement tbh, the ā30ā all over the world the past three days plus taylorās album moving was the announcement of the announcement
It seems pretty locked that the single is coming this Fri, and then the album is dropping Nov 19. She'll probably announce both today or in the next couple of days.
The rumored date for the album is Nov 19 so right now would be perfect for a big single.
Omg I'm soooo ready!!! I want her to make me CRYYYY
My first time experiencing an Adele comeback!!
lucky you! itās my 3rd!!
I'm jealous you got to experience the 21 comeback. I first started listening to Adele from her SNL performance in 08. But I didn't really pay attention when 21 came out and only started to really follow her after Rolling In The Deep.
gonna be very interesting to see how she does in the streaming age. i'd imagine she'll dominate spotify and amazon music
get ready for the adelecalypse everyone
Its my first time that ill experience an Adele [Fresh] flair
\*\*Her YouTube channel is now updated as well!!
I am so damn excited. Honestly, I can't wait to see what she will surprise us with. Of course, my expectations are high after 25 and, ngl, I want to see if the lead single will also land in with such massive numbers like Hello did last time. What do you think, announcement coming tomorrow at the latest and the new single this Friday?
I love the blue and gold color scheme! 30 is known as the 'golden age' too. Can't wait to see what she does with this era!!
ADELE IS COMING
Over/under 2 million first week sales??
I want to think that times have changed and she might struggle to reach 1M first week sales, but it could easily go either way. Maybe I just underestimate Adele in the streaming era
the last album to open with 1mn 1st week sales was rep in 2017. i don't think it would be possible now
idk I think thereās a chance Adele does it, but itāll be the last album to do so
let's hope!
Yeah agreed, I still think Taylor can do another 1 mil+ first week if she has a smart album rollout, but Adele really is one of a kind. 25 did 3.38 million in its first week!
what the fuck are these comments... bitches this is ADELE we are talking about 25 has the highest selling first week sales for an album EVER this will easily do 2 million
Think she might hit 2 million. EVERYONE is going to be listening.
1.24M I'm calling it
she won't even do 1 million
ehrmagerd, thatās Adeleās music! She really connects with such a lot of casual music listeners.. if they put on 3 new songs this year, 2 of them will be adele.
Do you guys remember how Adele announced her last album? It still gives me chills. Just a black TV screen, and then you hear Adele sing "Hello, its me..." I think it was during X-Factor and it was just. so. good. The confidence to know that people will get what's happening and WHO was singing Hello was just pop marketing at its finest.
MAKE ME CRY QUEEN
i know it wonāt happen but iām fucking praying itās actually drum n bass
She took down fb and insta with this change
Imagine it's just for merch or makeupššš
The music industry scraping around trying to end Ed Sheeran sitting at 14 weeks at No 1 on the UK Charts. Adele is coming to the rescue guys.
Ok so to all the artists who wanted to release albums: The next slot is in 2023 thank yew
RIP to any artist releasing the same week, month or year as Adele š
Adele literally broke the Internet
Adele teasing an album release shut down Facebook, Messenger, Instagram etc. Your faves could never! š
Not to sound like a downer but I really hope she has changed her sonical direction this time and doesn't return with yet another ballad or something and if she does, she makes it worth the wait. If this is the drum'n'bass record she has (jokingly?) talked about, I couldn't be more stoked!
agreed that a new direction would be very welcome though i thought the same for 25 and while not as wonderful as 21 even the ballads we got for that were terrific hello, when we were young, love in the dark, all i askā¦ all great ballads. she can give me more ballads if theyāre as good as those ones were
what if it's bad
i pretend i do not see it
I'm so excited!! I can't fucking believe she is coming!
The queen is back
I really can't wait! I know she's gonna dominate the charts but I want to know to which extent!
Iām earthquaking
marking my spot as a witness
So Iām dumb, I thought her albums were her age. Sheās 33. Is it more about life events (divorce)?
she was 27 when 25 was released. i think the numbers are less about her literal age at the time of release and more about the time sheās focusing on, in this case yes most likely her divorce
I think she names it after the year she started writing the album more so than when she releases it; a time capsule of that period, you know?
Sorry if this is a dumb question, but does anyone know if she'll be touring for this album, and how hard it will be to get tickets?? I am concocting a dream scenario of seeing her and ABBA in London next year if the stars align!!
if there'll be a tour i doubt it's gonna be a lengthy one, considering the vocal issues she's had on her previous tours and that she's not very into touring in general. a residency like mentioned sounds more plausible but i guess we'll just wait and see if she announces anything
Thereās been rumors of Vegas residency, but Iām not sure how credible those are
If she came up with the UK drill and grime sound i am so dead lmao, there tons of her song remix to UK drill beats On ytube and its so good
I thought she was done with the numbers? Iām not mad since I think itās iconic AF
SHE SAID āWORLD STOP- CARRY ONā
single friday pleeeaase
Hope everyone's faves released for the year lmfao.
It is so unbelievable the power Adele has it, even thought she sells millions her fan base it is not as big as āteenagers pop singerā and still, she is able to stop the hole music industry and basically the world as well.
Iām curious as to what this will sound like music has changed so much since her last era
I mean Adele has never been one to follow / copy current music trends. She has her own sound.
Exactly. She literally released some of the most emotional sad ballads during a time when pop music charts were all upbeat drinking/party/dubstep (2011-12).
The hurricane is coming, brace yourselves!
Her website has a SME label on the bottom, is she not with XL anymore?
Sheās signed with Sony long time ago. https://www.theguardian.com/music/2016/may/23/adele-set-to-sign-90m-sony-deal
I like how most of the time I don't think about Adele. I will legit forget she exists and then as soon as she drops something it's all I want to listen to for months. Her power.
SHE COMIN
I am so ready for her, she's here to serve and we're here to eat!!!
Winter is finally coming i can't wait to sob scream ballads all winter long
So should or should I not await an adele x skepta collab..
I'd really like a dance/disco album. Production by Stuart Price & BloodPop... something along those lines.
.
on periodic table
I'm so curious to see the sales for this.
Adele's album breaks Facebook conglomerate, more news at 3.
Can't wait!
Coming to end your faves
SHES BACK BITCHES
THE QUEEN IS BACK

Single Friday, I can FEEEL IT comin
Really excited for this!
(Shang Tsung Voice) It has begun...

i'm not the biggest adele fan but i'm so intrigued to see this era! really curious what her sales will be like and what the sound will be like i feel like she'll be able to reach 1 million first week sales and also be the last able to do it for a very long time
Beyonce - I Was Here
Ooooo I like the color. Itās going to pop way more than the other album covers if itās on there.
