Early Ages

Adele Laurie Blue Adkins, whom the whole world knows as singer Adele, was born in London in 1988. Her mother Penny Adkins raised the girl on her own: Adele was not even 3 years old when her father abandoned the family. Musical abilities were discovered early in the future star. She listened to the Spice Girls and Gabrielle and sang wonderfully, but did not see herself as an artist. Adele had severe complexes because of her appearance; she considered herself overweight.

At age 13, Adele first heard songs by Dusty Springfield, Ella Fitzgerald and Etta James. Only then the girl realized that appearance is not the main thing, and to become like the famous singers is quite possible. She begged her mother to buy a guitar and quickly learned to play it. Soon the young singer went to Croydon, where her teachers immediately saw Adele Adkins as a future popular performer who managed to make a name for herself in the music world.

In 2006 Adele graduated from the prestigious London School of Performing Arts and began her meteoric rise to fame. Then she was 18 years old, and she already knew how to play not only the guitar, but also the piano.

Music Career

Shortly after graduating from high school in Broyton, 2 of Adele’s songs were published in the 4th edition of PlatformsMagazine.com. And the singer’s demo tape, given to a high school buddy a few years earlier, appeared on the music resource MySpace. A famous producer stumbled upon the singer’s single with an unusual velvet voice. Less than a year later, 19-year-old Adele won her first award and went on tour in the UK.

The fame of the “new Amy Winehouse” grew at lightning speed. October 2007 saw the release of Adele’s debut hit Hometown Glory, which was soon voted single of the week. And in December of that happy year, the performer signed a recording studio contract and released a second hit titled Chasing Pavements. The song stayed at the top of the UK charts for four weeks.

At the very beginning of 2008, Adele’s debut album titled “19” was released. In just a few days it rocketed to the top of the charts. Within a month it had sold half a million copies of the disc, thus going platinum.

In March 2008, Columbia Records, America’s oldest record label, signed a contract with Adele. After that, the performer went on tour across America and Canada. In 2010, the singer was nominated for a Grammy for best pop performance among women. This success came to Adele in the award for the single Hometown Glory.

In early 2011, her second album was released in Adele’s home country. Critics noted a slight shift towards the country style. The history of the creation of some of the disc’s hits is interesting. For example, the artist wrote the track Take It All after a quarrel with her boyfriend, and the text of Rolling in the Deep was based on the phrase, thrown by a young man to his girlfriend. This single stayed on the top of Billboard Hot 100 for almost two months. And the album called “21” managed to stay for 1.5 months on the charts of Great Britain, Ireland, Germany, Austria and several other Western countries.

Adele performed the song “Someone Like You” at the annual British Music Awards. The single hit number 1 in the UK charts.

Another victory awaited Adele in 2012. Her composition Set Fire to the Rain topped the “hot 100” of the national hit parade in the USA.

The film was released under the title “007: Skyfall Coordinates” and Adele recorded the Skyfall track of the same name for the film. The singer kept secret work on the musical accompaniment of the film and first mentioned a “special project” in the autumn of 2011, but shared with the press and fans only hints. Officially, the participation of the singer in the creation of music for the Bond film was confirmed on October 1, 2012, 4 days before the release of the track.

For services in the promotion of culture and art of the country in 2014 Adele was awarded the Order of the British Empire, which she received from Prince Charles himself.

The singer’s fans have been waiting four years for the third album, which traditionally received the title corresponding to the age of the author at the time of the release of the disc – “25”. The record was released on November 20, 2015.

The singer’s triumph continued in 2016. Adele won three Brit Awards nominations out of four, and also received a special award for global success. The following season, the artist won all five nominations for the prestigious Grammy Music Awards. This victory made Brit the first artist to be able to win awards twice in the categories of Album of the Year, Song of the Year and Recording of the Year.

In addition, as a cameo, she played in a parody of the show “The Bachelor”, where she performed several of her songs. Another role the star got in the scene of visiting her grandmother with all the safety precautions because of the pandemic.

In 2021 there was more and more information about the artist’s return to the stage. Fans had been waiting for the new album since 2015. The record was supposed to be released in the fall of 2020, but the pandemic made adjustments to Adele’s plans.

On October 5, the singer posted a fragment of the video for the song “Easy On Me” on her YouTube channel. The fans thought that the new album was called “30”: in many large cities of the world there were billboards with the number 30, the font of which reminded the listeners of the previous Adele’s album. The guesses were right – in November the album “30” was released, which included 12 tracks.
