The Supreme!
After what seemed like an excruciating hiatus, Adele reclaims her throne!
The anticipation of Adele’s new album seemed torturesome, as Rose and I heard multiple rumors regarding the release date and official title of the album. Earlier this year we caught wind that Adele new album “25” would be released November 20, 2015. The announcement got us both excited and anxious as we had no idea what to expect.
I've always been such an emotional hoe when it comes down to Adele. I remember listening to "Chasing Pavements" back in middle school, back when no one knew who she was. I remember doing homework and crying because my crush had a new girlfriend while "Chasing Pavements" played on Kiss Fm.
Oh my god! I am literally in tears texting my best friend and listening to "Hello" trying to put my thoughts together for this post.
The album that almost everybody could relate to is "21". That album had such an impact on me, emotionally speaking! I remember always being over at Rose's house in Echo Park and just playing "Rolling In The Deep" and "Somebody Like You" at 1 in the morning and crying together. That album didn't get to me until two years ago, after I ended a relationship with someone I was so deeply in love with! I remember listening to the album, relating to almost every song and just asking myself "did she write this album for me or what?" I remember sleeping over at Rose's house one night and she played the video of her performing "Someone Like You" at The Royal Albert Hall and I was just crying so much from seeing how much emotion she transmitted while singing and seeing her cry at the end was just the straw that broke the camel’s back.
So many emotions I just can't right now!
I was a little scared about "25" after reading something where she said she would never write a breakup record again. Like are you serious girl? The reason that I love you is because of all your sad songs! Like what am I supposed to do with a "happy" album? No other artist makes me dig that deep into my feelings like she does, not even Lana.
When I first listened to the snippet of "Hello" yesterday I died and went to heaven! I knew there was no way that this album was going to be anywhere near "cheerful" The Adele I knew was finally back! My main bitch was back! It feels so surreal writing about her new album! I’m so excited for this album to come out, especially since it comes out the day after my birthday!
