Adele: Pop’s Unlikely Warrior Queen

Published: Tuesday 8th Nov 2011 by David

The last few years have seen Pop’s arena welcome a troupe of fresh faced Gladiators all competing in tandem to win the affections of the  record-buying public.

There is Rihanna, whose weapon of choice changes with the sway of public opinion. Ever ready to vaguely adapt to what she believes will help her win the fight.

Then there is Katy Perry and Ke$ha, with swords forged deep in the pits of Dr. Luke‘s imaginirium. Satisfied with receiving whatever spoils of war a certain Britney Spears is too pre-occupied to claim for herself.

From the realm of Rap comes Nicki Minaj, with a battle axe stolen from Lil Kim‘s weapons cabinet.  Slicing through Hip Hop’s archaic code and conventions to carve her name in the sand as Rap’s first Pop Empress, ready for battle at any given moment.

Then of course is the reigning champion Lady GaGa, equipped with a glitter stained double edged sword. Controversy on one edge and undeniable talent on the other.

And while these assassins battle each other, hoping to out-perform one another in the pits of Pop’s amphitheatre, an unlikely contender watches from the crowd.

A lone voice amidst the noise that is Contemporary Pop.

She is Adele. Pop’s unlikely Warrior Queen.

Now certified 10x Platinum in the UK and moving more than 10 million copies around the globe, her ‘21‘ LP is one of the world’s highest and fastest selling albums in modern memory.

The follow up to the Grammy winning ‘19′,  Adele’s latest effort has seen her go from just another staple in Brit Pop’s re emergence in foreign markets, to the world’s most critically acclaimed and commercially accomplished artist in last five years.

Averaging with sales of 200,000 units sold worldwide per chart week, XL Recordings’ strategy of aiming the LP at the middle aged mother unable to download music illegally  has paid off – quite literally.

Her success, to many, has come like a thief in the night.

Described by the Wall Street Journal as ‘deliberately unflashy’, her dominance of the charts is all the more boggling to a generation accustomed to the pomp and pageantry endorsed by even the most talented of chart regulars.

Successfully creating her own unique sound by seasoning mid-tempo Pop with a healthy dose of Contemporary Soul, Ms Adkins has gone on to inspire the work of artists she herself grew up listening to. From Beyonce to Christina Aguilera.

Will her future releases live up to the success of ’21’, or will Ms ‘Rolling In The Deep‘s success turn out to be short lived, ready to be outperformed by whatever strikes the fancy of the general public next.

  16. KD August 23, 2011

    The reason 21 is so BIG is because of clever marketing and lots of hype (kinda like Susan Boyle)…It should be interesting to see how her third album fares when it does eventually drop. I have a feeling that the “Adele-mania” we are witnessing would have faded by then…and when that happens there will be another WHITE sensation slaying the charts SMH.

    @KERI HILSON IS BADDDDDDDD AND SHES A THREAT TO UR FAV

    Pressed much?
    Adele isn’t POP she’s soul/R&B, beyonce isn’t POP either she’s contemporary R&B.

    @skeri stan
    Why do beyonce always stay on your mind?

  19. jill August 23, 2011

    The same happened with Joss Stone when she first came out, then Amy, Adele HYPE will fade away. Especially with her trying a new sound for the next album, she’s going Blue Grass, trying a hand at country. I feel sorry for Taylor Swift and all the other country artist.

  20. RosaRubbel August 23, 2011

    I’m happy for Adele, but it’s kinda funny, because everyone is on her right now.

  22. Sherry August 23, 2011

    As much as I have been a fan of Adele’s, I agree with @KD and @Jill. Every couple of years or so everybody hops on the bandwagon and stan hardcore for one artist. Then when they either put out a cd they don’t like or exhibit behavior they disapprove of they turn on them. Amy, Nelly Furtado (though she rebounded for a short while), Lauryn, Dangelo, Joss Stone, Macy Gray, Norah Jones, list goes on and on. So when she does her next cd, which she said will be a 180 how many of these “slaydeles” are going to follow or are they going to slob over someone else because their #1? I miss the days when she was Chasing Pavement Adele and there were no stans, mean fat jokes or comparisons.

  23. Brit August 23, 2011

    This article is alittle too much…………………..
    With the way music is nowadays of course Adele is a breath of fresh air.
    Rihanna is not going to stand a chance, Nicki 15 mins is running out. The old dogs will remain the lasted since the 90s they will remain when the pop fade runs out like in did with the boy bands. (old school= Christina Aguilera, Beyonce, Monica, brandy, britney, etc)

    Britney can just stand on the stage and get an applause.

  24. B_STANNING AND LOVING ADELE August 23, 2011

    Yall r some young ass people. It is just Adeles time to shine and BEY is still getting it so WTF are you haters of both parties talking about.

  25. KAT DELUNA FAN August 23, 2011

    LMAO you kids make me laugh all the time.Adele is Pop/Soul
    She is not R&B a bit.

    My question is:Everytime a girl sells album she becomes a queen?
    Nor Lady gaga,Adele,Nicki,RIhanna are queens or anything.
    They are the flavor of the months like Taylor Swift,Susan Boyle,Leona Lewis,BEP,Nelly furtado,Norah Jones to be.

    Half of those girls use stunt and discount to do so it doesnt really count for me 🙄
    Adele is selling.
    Adele is selling an actually great album.

    Fantastic but other really great albums are flopping.When Lady Gaga was selling album faster than anyone last year,you crowned her something,now yall look dumb cause Adele is slaying.You know what? someone else will probably come with a momentum single (a la single ladies) or a momentum album (a la FAME or 21).

    I am just expecting the next “IT GIRL/BOY” to have good music to offer

  26. tweetypiebabe1 August 23, 2011

    Adelel has longevity, clearly. I’ve followed her since ’19’, I’m not one of those who just majestically realized her talents on ’21’ cause ‘Hometown Glory’ was my song, so I know she has it in her. Whether or not the masses will like her next project, who knows?! But I’m sure first week sales will be good as people will go out and support.

    Also she targets such a wide audience. She’s for everyone. Not just the teeny boppers or the middle aged mothers but everyone from the baby down to the grown ass man. I’ll keep supporting her once she keeps producing music which speaks to me.

    Also to the first commenter, Adele is Soul/R&B but she is also Adult Contemporary Pop or Traditional Pop, which would mean the same category as Michael Buble or Natalie Cole and such.

    Don’t forget, Pop is just an abbreviation for POPULAR and Adele most certainly is very POPULAR!

  27. Mary August 23, 2011

    @Jill and @KD @Sherry Very True. Joss Stone, Norah Jones, remember Fiona Apple? (that song criminal from fiona) when they switch up there sound, the fans fade away. When someone is hot at the moment everyone is jumping on the train. Will the stans/fans be with her when she goes country for her next album? We’ll find out.

    I know the TRUE fans will remain.

  28. jamir21:bey,rihanna,brit,gaga,nicki >>>>> KERI ! August 23, 2011

    Whatever Adele will never be bigger than Rihanna, Britney, Beyonce, and Gaga !!!
    Maybe Nicki….though !! LOL !
    Well i apologize for what I said but I can see adele being bigger than Nicki !!!

  29. Mary August 23, 2011

  30. Nichole August 23, 2011

    Adele is another Susan Boyle.

    In my opinion, there is nothing special about Adele’s voice and she comes off as an Amy W. knock off.

    Amy’s voice was deeply soulful, and very unique. I don’t get that vibe from Adele.

    @B_STANNING AND LOVING ADELE

    WOW, you are so right, just because Adele came along doesn’t mean Beyonce is pushed to the side. They both have great talent, they have different sounds and different talents to offer. I don’t understand how some stans and fans can create drama. When clearly the girls respect each other.

    Half of the commenters are young kids.
    Not to compare but beyonce have been doing this since the mid-90s, of course others (monica, usher) has been doing it longer but you can’t compare artist. I listen to everybody, if I like a song a buy the ALBUM. I have so many cd’s from Powerman 5000 to Shai, Britney to Stacie Orrico. I really enjoy music.

  34. IN THE SOUTH,WE DON’T STAN FOR BIRDS,WE FRY ‘EM UP & SERVE THEM WITH BISCUITS & DIRTY RICE (IS†ANN4GAGA) August 23, 2011

    And also,I think Adele is in a stage that is comparable to Gaga,when she first came out…(making award noms left & right,having the whole public media wrapped around your finger,having an album slay months after it came out,etc)….

    NO I AM NOT SAYING SHE’S GOING TO END UP LIKE GAGA but Adele in 2011 = Gaga in 2009

    See Beyoncé’s name now?

  37. stan August 23, 2011

    she may be hot now, but it remains to be seen if her next album is as successful. look at norah jones, joss stone, susan boyle, etc.

    plus her music is overrated. her voice is good, but the album sounds like a typical adult contemporary pop album, imo.

  38. KERI HILSON IS BADDDDDDDD AND SHES A THREAT TO UR FAV August 23, 2011

    yall just mad that adele is the king now ……….. miss me with the hate assholes NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO BOYS ALLOWED IS STILL BETTER THAN 4 !!!!!!!!!!

  39. Bey’knight August 23, 2011

    @B-stanning

    Agree with u and others that share similar POV. I can honestly say i dint like chasin pavements n still dont but im into many of the tracks on 21. I think it deserves its success, many other great albums of recent times deserve similar success but arent gettin the recognition. Oh well it is what it is. Adele is lucky all the same

    what i wanna point out is what does Sam mean with the diamond certification? Sellin 10million copies ww wont earn her a diamond plate, she has to sell that much in US, you’d think a music blogger would know that…. Ch. Errbody wants to defend their fav so they run their mind w/o gettin the facts. U just look foolish at the end of the day

  53. rihanna stan August 23, 2011

    beyonce cannot act to save her life….. she was out before keri , but if they came out at the same time things would be very different . keri is more creative when it comes to her videos , vocal arrangements, dance moves, she makes songs that touch people all around the world , beyonce had her group to make her famous .

    Adele is soul, not pop, and that whole article read like it was written by a gushing 14 yr old trying to be deep.

    Adele is slaying because folks are tired of that pop s*** and while they may jam to your music they won’t put money in your pockets unless you REALLY bring something deep to the table. Folks are actually going out and supporting Adele while they illegally download (or just plain ignore) other broads.

    Props to her. The numbers will keep her chucking up deuces for years.

  62. CURLY SUE August 23, 2011

    Will her future releases live up to the success of ‘21′, or will Ms ‘Rolling In The Deep’s success turn out to be short lived, ready to be outperformed by whatever strikes the fancy of the general public next.

    ^^^ I AGREE WITH THAT STATEMENT. UK ARTISTS TEND TO COME, BLOW PEOPLE OUT OF THE WATER, THEN FADE INTO TOTAL OBLIVION. MAYBE ADELE WON’T HAVE THE SAME FATE, BUT IT IS LIKELY.

    The majority of the album’s production was handled by Grammy Award-winning American producer Rick Rubin, while additional producers included Jim Abbiss, Paul Epworth, Fraser T. Smith, Ryan Tedder and Dan Wilson. Attracting critical praise for its vintage authenticity, the lyrical depth of the songs, as well as Adele’s vocal performance, the album was seen as an artistic improvement over her debut. Preceded by lead single “Rolling in the Deep”, which became a worldwide number-one hit, 21 debuted atop the UK Albums Chart with first-week sales of 208,000 copies, and peaked at number one in over fifteen countries, including Canada, Australia, Germany and Ireland. In the U.S., the album debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 chart, selling 352,000 copies in its first week.

    Following a highly praised performance of the album’s second single “Someone Like You”, at the 2011 BRIT Awards, the album maintained its number one position in the UK for eleven consecutive weeks, and, as of July 2011, amassed eighteen total weeks at number one. The album has been certified 10-times platinum by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI), denoting domestic shipments in excess of three million units,[1] and in the U.S., topped the Billboard 200 for twelve non-consecutive weeks, shifting 2.9 million copies so far. A third single, “Set Fire to the Rain”, attained success across several European territories. The success of 21 helped to revive sales of 19, which ascended to new chart peaks within the top ten in New Zealand, and the top three in the UK, Ireland, and Australia, despite its release over three years ago. 21 also broke a number of chart records, its eleven-week stint at the top of the UK Albums Chart becoming the longest consecutive number-one for a solo artist.[2] Ranked as the best-selling album of the year so far in both the UK and the U.S., 21 also became the all-time best selling digital album in both territories. As of mid August

    Adele is not a Pop Artist.

  108. MissImpartial August 23, 2011

    Every artist in the industry has a period where they are at the height of their career. But the real test is if the artist can stay relevant for the next years.

  109. Yellow August 23, 2011

    Beyonce is not in this post because she’s in a whole other lane then these girls. Love her or hate her she’s slowly but surely headed to iconic status. Although some of these female artists mentioned above are outselling her right now, non of them have been able to enjoy the longevity she has or even own the amount of grammy’s she has.

    Did you notice that neither Janet, Madonna or Britney were mentioned. They’re the generation of pop icons before this one. The battle is between Rihanna, Nicki, Katy, Kesha, Gaga etc. Who will we still talk about 10 years from now? Who will break records? Accomplish the impossible? And who will be our new queen of pop?
    Right now all of these ladies are just ”one of the many” pop stars out there.

    Altough personally I feel Rihanna and Gaga are in the lead things can always change and time will tell..

  110. jamir21:bey,rihanna,brit,gaga,nicki >>>>> KERI ! August 23, 2011

    Rihanna and Gaga will be the lead of things !!!
    Katy, Kesha. will fade away SOON !

    RM hacks into the cellphone of a 11-yr-old child making her parents and the police believe she was alive and checking her phone messages when she was indeed DEAD AND BURIED IN A SHALLOW GRAVE ——> F*CK RUPET MURDDOCH AND HIS CRIMINAL MEDIA EMPIRE including the Wall Street Journal!

  112. mobwife…….I hate idiots! August 23, 2011

    Go Adele!!

    I’m a little sick of hearing about her though! If the media allowed us to enjoy her without all the “pomp and circumstance” more ppl would appreciate her and her accomplishments!! IMO

  114. S*** August 23, 2011

    Sorry but 21 AINT all that!! The only songs by her that I really like are CHASING PAVEMENTS (B4 She became OVERRATED) & RUMORS… THATS IT!!, The majority of her music is DULL, OVERRATED & UNINSPIRING.

    4 >>>>>>>>>>>> 21

    Adele just got LUCKY. 😕

    Just this year’s Lady Caca/Susan Boyle (in terms of Sells) IMO 😕

    Im starting to think shes only selling because of the ALBUM COVER (Outside of her Image, & Skin Color ofcourse).

    Its not fair because Adele’s Demographic is quite diffrent from everyone else, her Demographic if from that of the MID 90’s while everyone else’s Demographic is coming from Present Industry in today’s Climate (in terms of Sells).

    Eitherway, 4 is gonna Kill the Grammys next Year. 🙂

  115. Avenger August 23, 2011

    I don’t care how successful she is right now, Adele hasn’t proven herself yet. As of now, she’s for all intent and purposes is a “one hit wonder”. Let’s see if in 5 years and 3 albums down the line if she’s still commanding attention. Adele’s name used to be Susan Boyle, Amy Winehouse and Norah Jones. Every other year the music industry and buying public chooses some random dowdy soul/pop singer to get behind and celebrate in an attempt to make itself seem less shallow and more credible. Their first few albums sale like crazy, and then it abruptly ends.

  120. Mary August 23, 2011

    @jamir21
    I kind of agree with you, half of these bandwagon h*** are not going to be around next album, Adele is going going country.

    And Stop comparing Beyonce to Adele, Beyonce has been around with her group since the 90s. Half of you wasn’t born yet.
    Beyonce is heading towards legendary status. Who can get Paul McCartney and Barbars Streisand at a concert, then go to dinner with Paul? MJ, Madonna, Janet, Babyface, Qunicy, all the big names love Bey.

    Who gives a crap about selling singles? Especially in this day and time it’s easy to get 10 number ones. Labels make more money with Artist who sell albums. Selling singles is nothing.
    I love Adele BUT we have to wait and see.

    There was Norah Jones, Sarah McLachlan, Susan Boyle, Joss Stone, Amy, Fiona Apple.
    They has one maybe two successful albums, stop c*** riding this new artist because guess what the industry likes to build and knock down artist.
    Look what MTV down to Britney a few years ago and now there honoring her. That was wrong what they did.

  125. Yellow Gorillah August 23, 2011

    I am glad that some people know the TRUTH

    Adele is going to be another ONE HIT ALBUM SELLER
    Just like her mother Susan Boyle it’s just overrated. I’m sorry

    I have heard the album and It did not Move me or Amazing it’s not no thriller every track sounded the same all slow and suicidel I’m sorry I lover her for her talent and I agree she derves Everything she is getting because she has worked hard,

    BUT If you reallly think she is going to be here in 5 years time you are CRAZY People like adele do not last long she will fade after this album her next album will NEVER see these number’s

    Gaga and Rihanna are the only two that will come out of this decade at the TOP!

  126. jamir21:bey,rihanna,brit,gaga,nicki >>>>> KERI ! August 23, 2011

    @ yellow gorillah i agree !!!

  127. beyonceknowswhatshewants August 23, 2011

    Beyonce used a lot of live instrumentation and stripped down production on some tracks. Its like everyone expected her to come out with huge dance smashes and thats exactly what she could have done, I mean she is Beyonce she could call up Dr. Luke and have him foam at the mouth at his opprotunity to give her 10 #1 singles like the rest, but no she decides to make beautiful songs uptempo, downtempo live insrumentation etc. yet some accuse her of not working that hard on the Album. Do you critize KP or LG or RiRi for that when they walk in the studio with a song demoed and ready to go to #1 no matter who is actually singing it.. only critique the album has to many Ballads though they are beautiful..

  128. THE HISTORIC LACEFRONCE. August 23, 2011

  130. nice_gurl August 24, 2011

    I’ve said this time and time again. I understand that Adele has a good voice and some nice music, but to me, she’s slightly overrated and her album is selling ridiculously, when there are albums out there that are way better.

  131. THEMAN August 26, 2011

    @S*** shut that bullshyt up. Your just pissed that she’s selling. Her first album is also platinum plus. You are insecure. Why are you talking about Beyonce here. She has nothing to do with it. Get over it. Adele is awesome and your angry. GREAT !!!!! Congrats Adele. Gaga is still selling very well also.

  134. RATEDXx(delusional is a hell of a drug) November 8, 2011

    Adele is not pop..shes soul/r&b

    I like Adele, (likes amy winehouse voice better), but she hasnt been in the game long enough to be snatching anybodys title….

    and people needs to stop comparing britney, madonna, mariah, janet, to all these new people..because all these bishes are legends..

  135. RATEDXx(delusional is a hell of a drug) November 8, 2011

    adele is over rated because she doesnt have to pop her c****** on stage and in her videos..

    adele is over rated becase she doesnt have to be buck naked, spread eagle in a video, stage, magazine, to sell records..

    adele is over rated because she doesnt have to put out fake news to stay relevant

    adele is over rated because shes not beyonce….

    thats according to her stans…

  136. RATEDXx(delusional is a hell of a drug) November 8, 2011

    I love how people can predict the future when it comes to Adele…shes not going to be relevant in 5 years…really how do u know that?

    newsflash , you dont have to be in the public to be relevant…you dont have to be on every single magazines to be relevant…

  137. DTG November 8, 2011

    Adele is not R&B. She’s this odd kind of UK “hipster” pop/soul. No R&B stations play her music. She doesn’t connect with R&B music fans. Her audience is pop. Period.

  138. kingB November 8, 2011

    Adele’s success reminds me of Dido back in the days, huge (somehting like 20 millions copies) and totally unexpected.
    Hopefully for Adele, she’ll last longer…

  139. mobwife November 8, 2011

    I like Adele and she definitely brings something new and fresh to the mangled pop landscape BUT…… I just can’t help but think that something is just not right! She continues to average 200,000 units sold a week!?!? O__0 I hate to say it but it reminds me of the continued growth charts Bernie Madoff produced to fool his invester! While the overall market was down his stock continued to increase or remained consistant! kay, I’m thinking too much….LOL! 🙂

    **Good for you Adele! I hope you feel better soon!!

  140. NY-Superstar November 8, 2011

    This story made no sense.

  141. JohnVidal November 8, 2011

    I can´t believe some people´s comments. Like seriously. Let´s see:

    – How can you compare Adele to Susan Boyle????? (and for the record I don´t care about Susan, she´s not an artist to me, but she is not a one hit wonder, she slayed the charts two years in a row in the USA in November-December and I heard she has something for this year too). Adele has made a masterpiece. That´s why she´s slaying
    – When the hell did Joss Stone have this succes a la Adele??? Be serious people.
    – Now Dido is more like a fair comparison. I hope Adele´s big succes could last longer. We´ll see. And yes there are British artists who have longevity at being a big act. For example Coldplay
    – Still, you don´t need to fight this much. None of the women named on this post will ever be as big as Madonna, Whitney and Mariah. Never. Sorry

  142. King B November 8, 2011

  143. MissImpartial November 8, 2011

    Isn’t funny that Beyonce is listed as Pop when she is successful but RNB when she is not. Lol

  144. nicegirl November 8, 2011

    You already posted this Sam???? Stop posting old posts.

  145. nicegirl November 8, 2011

    I don’t think you can compare Adele to other artists. She does different music to people like Bey and Christina. I don’t know if her album will be as successful next time.

  146. COMMANDEROFTHEDANCEFLOOR November 8, 2011

    i don’t get the hype over 21, in my opinion 19 slays 21. 19 is by far adeles best work even though 21 is her most successful, don’t get me wrong i love 21 but 19 was so much better.

  147. BEYONCE ALL THE WAY November 8, 2011

  148. Robier November 8, 2011

    Described by the Wall Street Journal as ‘deliberately unflashy’, her dominance of the charts is all the more boggling to a generation accustomed to the pomp and pageantry endorsed by even the most talented of chart regulars. AMAZING TRUTH.

    No the Next cd will won’t come close to the sales of ’21’ but it will do well. Sorta like Aunt Susie Boyle

  149. Small_Angel November 8, 2011

    Reality:

    Madonna, Mariah Carey, Whitney Houston
    Secured a seat in POP Reign long time ago.

    Just Recently,
    Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, Beyonce
    also secured their seats…

    at this era
    pop divas who will more likely to secure a seat are:
    Lady gaga, Rihanna, Taylor Swift and Katy Perry (All already proved that they could have number 1’s, win awards and its about time for them to prove longetivity like the britney,xtina and B)

    Other on the list of new artist could also secure a seat.

    About Adele no one can tell what is she going to be by the coming years but I like her and happy for her. I hope she could also secure a seat for herself.
