Adele is ready for a comeback. The English pop singer announced that the album’s lead single is called “Easy On Me” and it’ll come out on October 15th.
In the black and white clip, the 33-year-old inserts a cassette into a car stereo while driving down a country lane as pieces of paper fly out of the windows. Whoa!
All three of her albums have been named after the milestone ages she has hit during the creative process.
If you remember, the music biz was ready to get back in business in September 2020. Festivals like Coachella were cancelled in March during the height of the pandemic and were re-scheduled for the late fall. But fall came around and the tours were cancelled. With Broadway shutting down indefinitely with a possible Spring 2021 opening, tours were pushed to the summer. Now, the summer tours are off the table and many are being booked for 2022. At this point, nobody knows. You may as well start booking for 2075. Now that the reality and nerves have settled in, artists are rushing to get product out. They’ve given up on the traditional promo run which is put out a record and start touring.
Bieber has been releasing song after song. His latest song Lonely with benny blanco is really good. Superstar Ariana Grande has announced a new album is on the way. Adele will make a rare public appearance hosting ‘SNL’ for the first time. With tours off the table, the money making avenue is streaming. Think about it, streaming now makes up 85% of all revenue in the U.S – the revenue jumped 12% to $4.8 billion in the first half of 2020.
After a long hiatus, Adele is set to release new music. Most artists today rarely take a break from releasing music whereas the English singer is known to take long vacations between albums. Adele is the artist that likes to live life and truly channel her emotions through her songs. With a recent a split from her husband, it’s time to make some songs. According to a source, “She talks about last year as a very difficult year, and she’s said in the past that creating new music is almost like therapy. You can tell that she is ready to share with her fans.”
Los Angeles based Valentina releases the catchy electro pop track P.D.A. The up and coming songstress grew up listening to Nina Simone, Amy Winehouse and Adele. After learning how to produce in 2018, she found a really cool sound. Other tracks worth listening too are Break My Heart, 10 Feet Tall, and Child. With her latest track, Valentina notes, “This song is the best way for me to describe the euphoric feeling of falling for someone that you’ve known for a very long time.” Give it a stream!
