Adele finally released her 30 album on Friday and, naturally, the world stumbled on its axis.
Adele 30 album review: A collection of raw emotion
The singer’s powerful vocal presence meshes well with the raw instrumentation that pervades the 12-track offering. Three songs in, and somehow, Easy On Me, Adele’s first single, fits perfectly into its place as the anchor to two extremes: Stranger By Nature, an open letter to her ex-husband Simon Konecki and My Little Love, depicting her role in bringing her son to terms with the divorce.
There is no way to objectively criticise the Adele 30 album. This is a collection of raw emotions, a closet opened and showcased by a woman who, in her growth, has matured along with her past mistakes and worn her scars as an indication of her self-awareness.
Adele maintains a calm demeanour throughout the 12 tracks, exploding into soul-jerking high octaves every now and then to embolden certain aspects of the story.

If there is one thing that Beyoncé and Adele has taught us, it’s that disappearing is necessary! Their prioritizing of quality over quantity is proof! It’s okay to take time to evolve so you can be better than who you were before! #Adele30
