Who is Adele? Adele is an English singer and songwriter who has sold millions of albums worldwide and won a total of 15 Grammy and Oscar awards. Adele's first two albums, “19 and 21”, were critically acclaimed and achieved a level of commercial success unmatched by their peers. After becoming a mother in 2012, Adele returned to the charts with the ballad Hello, the lead single from her 2015 comeback album “25”. In 2017, she won five Grammy Awards for ”25” works, including album, record and song of the year. Early life, education and influences.
Adele Laurie Blue Adkins was born on May 5, 1988 in London, North England. She was the only daughter of 'art mother' Penny Adkins, who was only 18 when Adele was born, and Mark Evans, who left the family when Adele was 4. Evans stayed in touch with her daughter until she was a teenager, but the relationship deteriorated due to alcohol problems and fights with her daughter. Instead, Adele developed a close relationship with her mother, who encouraged her young daughter to "check things out and not hold on to them." Adele's passion for music appeared early. It has been covered by Olaulin Hill, Mary J Blige and Destiny's Child. But the real eye-opener was when she discovered a collection of Etta James and Ella Fitzgerald records at a local thrift store when she was 15. "We didn't have a musical heritage in our family," Adele told The Telegraph in 2008. "Top music was all I knew. So when I heard Ettas and Hellas, it sounded very subtle, but it was like waking up. I thought yes, some people live long enough and are legends. When I was 15, I was so inspired to listen to music made in the 1940s." She was obviously smart, but Adele didn't focus on traditional classes. Instead, her mother enrolled her at the BRIT School of Arts and Technology, where Amy Winehouse is credited as an alumna. At school, Adele demoed three songs for a class project, which were eventually posted on her MySpace page. XL Recordings management heard the song and contacted the singer and signed her to a recording contract in November 2006, four months after Adele graduated from high school. Adele's albums. "19". The 19-year-old Adele's debut album was sold in early 2008 due to the singer's age when she began recording the project. Led by two popular singles, "Hometown Glory" and "Chasing Pavements," the album made Adele famous. Released in the United States by Columbia Records, “19” resonated with American audiences and British music lovers alike. Adele confirmed the commercial success by appearing on Saturday Night Live in October 2008. At the time the show was taped, the album was number 40 on iTunes. It reached number one in less than 24 hours.
"21". 21-year-old Adele's last album was renamed in early 2011 to reflect her age. Deepening Adele's appreciation of R&B and classic American jazz, the album was a huge success, selling 352,000 copies in its first week. With hits like "Rolling in the Deep" and "Someone Like You," 21 placed Adele on rarified air. In February 2011, she had two Top 5 singles and multiple Top 5 albums in the same week, becoming the only artist besides The Beatles and 50 Cent to achieve this feat. At number one for 11 weeks with the “21” album, Adele also broke Madonna's record for the longest week on the album chart held by the solo artist’s Immaculate Collection. ”21” has sold over 30 million copies worldwide.
