“Rolling In the Deep” singer Adele revealed earlier this summer that her next album will boast a more ‘acoustic feel’. Now, reports have surfaced the songstress may be adding a twang to that acoustic sound.
Speaking with Billboard.biz, the singer referred to hearing American country music for the first time “like a four-year-old in a candy shop who’s discovering sweets again.” She elaborated by stating:
Via Billboard.biz:
“I was exposed to a lot of country, rockabilly and bluegrass. The melodies and to-the-point lyrics I have found in a lot of American styles of music is definitely something I’m going to be pursuing heavily from now on. I want to spend some time in Austin in Texas and Nashville, Tennessee, and learn about it.”

Adele <3
She’s obese & overrated.
OMG!She will get such a huge backlash from the UK.Joss Stone was ripped to pieces just for having a slight American accent, even though she had been living in the US for years and now Adele is going to make American music???THIS IS GOING TO BE INTERESTING!!!
Hmm interesting. I was hoping for a jazz record, but this will be interesting to hear.
@Lacecunt
Adele slays your faves and you will deal with it.
Her musical direction makes sense. Especially after 21. The influence is present in a few tracks. Excited about anything with her voice on it. Luv Adele!
Lmao, she’s gonna do some country music.!! Shes coming for Taylor now!
@global icon. Ppls stay in school. A mind is a terrible thing to waste.
Uhh not my type my type of music but power to her if she wants to go that route. I was hoping she’d be more soul like amy winehouse. I don’t like country at all. Or blues.
Well, if she is doing country her next album will do at least 1 million first week. Country is probably the category that sells the most these days with the exception of a few pop stars (see: Adele). And I can only imagine what “21” will end up selling. I think it has a good chance of hitting 15 million if she/her label release more singles and videos. “Someone Like You” and “Set Fire To The Rain” are definitely smashes if she just put an effort.
I don’t like country music, however Adele doing country might be what gets me to listen to it. Her voice actually goes quite well with it. She did an excellent job of covering Lady Antebellum’s “Need You Now” at the CMT awards, and her cover of “If It Hadn’t Been For Love” sounds as though the song was specifically written for her.
I’m actually glad she’s considering trying a different sound for her next album.
Adele doing country? Hmm
To ask why Adeles selling so much means to ask Why shes so Over Weight!!.
I DARE her to Lose about 50+ Pounds b4 she releases 23!!
It would Flop Flop Flop like the Titanic !!!
Adelaphant’s Single, Album, & Voice = AVG . com
Its NOT about REAL MUSIC, If it was then all The QueenB would have to do is be Fat & Sit Down in a Chair also. 🙂
So Trust me, She sells BECAUSE of her Image/Weight NOT in Spite of!!
SUSAIN BOYLE 2.0, Be New, Fat, WHITE & release Classic Adult contemporary Material & BOOM!!, Instant Hit!!.
Shes OKay. I wouldnt give Adelaphant Too much Credit.
AMY WINEHOUSE >>> (I could actually see it with her) 😕
Good 4 her though, Shes OKay.
But I wouldnt Overrate her or give her Too much Credit… 😕
I like Blue grass Music a little (Frank Ocean’s Strawberry Swing made me give Bluegrass a try) but COUNTRY??? I’ll have to see how that goes because country and me don’t mix….
COUNTRY ?! NO ADELE JUST NO !
GOOD LUCK ANYWAY !
@LACEFRONCE :
ADELE SLAYING YOUR FLOP H*** ! LETOYA/ASHANTI/BRANDY/”put your fav here” !!!!!!
#flop h** !
u mad 😆 ?!
whatever works for her, i guess. i find her very overrated.
@taylorswift#1fan AKA scott :
TAYLOR IS COOL ! but she didn’t invent “country” genre !!! everyonce can try it , right ?! 😉 !
@ S***:
So you’re saying that she’s only popular because she’s fat? Really? How many overweight pop stars do you see out there?
Yeah, sit down.
@THE ICONIC pop royalty (I’m a rude Boy)
Yes. Scott’s my name!
Sure, she can sing county,. im a fan of adele… i even copied her pic… actually no.. thats not right.. she copied me;)
Seriously? I don’t like Country, but I know it’ll fly on Adele. I’m sure she’ll add a little Jazz too! 🙂
@SCOTT :
haha*dead* @ she copied you ! cuz i thought the same too ! i was like “deja vu ” 😆 !
but you are cool anyway 😉 !
I hope she doesn’t do a boring album with only one genre. I’d like a little jazz, a little blues, country, pop, RnB (can you imagine her singing RnB??) and yes, a mixture of different music but also a cohesive album. Something like B’s latest effort.
@King B
Yas, thats EXACTLY what Im saying. & Beautiful too… but its Mostly because of her LOOK 1ST & then her Music & Voice 2nd!!. She Appeals to the EYE 1st & Foremost… Sorry 😕
making fun of her weight..wow that’s original. grow up.
urgh f*** that genre. DON’T DO IT ADELE!!!!
& Bey ALREADY did this with “I AM…” (which was Country/Acoustic/Pop)
I AM… >>> 23, 21, & 19!!
#Adele needs to SIT MANY SEATS!…
(Im sure she has NO Problem doing that) 😉
hmmm. Adele/country/bluegrass. Okay. I am not a die hard fan of either. However, one of my favorite songs ever is by Alison Krauss and Union Station “Goodbye Is All We Have,” and they are considered Blue Grass artists. I am also obsessed with Emmylou Harris’ “Red Dirt Girl”- brilliant album. Even though this album is not considered very “country.”
What I like about this move is that Adele is attempting to move into the arena of singers who have INDUSTRY/PEER respect all.the.way.around. I’m thinking of artists like Cassandra Wilson and Lizz Wright who sing every type of music and have this type of respect. “21” is putting her in a position where she will never have to worry about chart success ever again, so her music in the future could be very interesting.
@S***, so let me get this straight. Adele is successful because she is “new, fat, and white?”
Okay.
By the way, her and Amy’s music sound absolutely NOTHING alike so why the comparison?
@s*** :
DO NOT U GET BORED OF RECYCLING YOUR OWN COMMENTS ?!
#DEJA VU !!
AND PLZ WHAT WAS THAT ?!

_______________________________________________________________
AND THE SAME FOR BEYONCE TOO !
STOP BITCHING 😉 !
Just an attempt from her label to sell more albums in US.
But does country need to turn schmalzy? Oh wait it was already…thanx Taylor!
At least she can sing better than Swift (even if Adeles voice is overrated)
@S*** is a certified hater. Your just angry that Adele’s new album is a masterpiece, something that your favorite artist so deperately wants to produce. DEAL WITH IT. ADELE >>>>>>>>>> THE OTHERS POINT BLANK PERIOD… Her cd is WORLDCLASS, whether she’s plus size or not she’s beautiful. She has raw talent and skill. She’s just amazing, and she appeals to everyone. She has charm and charisma, something your favorite artist lacks.
Atleast Adele’s a credivle artist, she doesn’t steal songs,lie about music that she hasn’t written. She’s original. She doesn’t go around claiming things, and then when she’s called out on it, try to fall on the inspiration thing. She doesn’t copy and paste things that have been done already. Stop comparing her and Amy Winehouse they are nothing alike, both have soul but thats it. In conclusion, people are just mad that Adele is selling the way their favorite artists isn’t. Be happy and shut up. We need this kind of music, it’s authentic.
ARETHA FRANKLIN IS A LEGEND REGARDLESS OF HER WEIGHT !
LMFAO ! U CAN NOT FIND SOMETHING AGAINST HER , RIGHT @S*** ?!
SHE IS THE “IT” GIRL OF 2011 ! u already know that !
WE BEYONCE FANS WERE SAYING :
WHEN BEYONCE RELEASE HER ALBUM/LEAD-SINGLE/MUSIC VIDEO SHE WILL SHUT DOWN CAREERS AND S*** BUT NOTHING HAPPENED ! SO PLZ SIT AND GIVE CREDITS ONCE IN YOUR ENTIRE LIFE ! cuz adele is really impressive ! the fact she’s from UK and outselling someone who’s “king B” and “queen B” need a standing ovation !
the problem with u is that you are funny as hell but you do not give any credit to ppl who really slaying the game ! #bitter !
SINCERLY :
A FELLOW BEY STAN !
Credible*
@THE ICONIC pop royalty (I’m a rude Boy)
Haha. Yeah i dont mind her copying my pic, but she could have atleast asked me first:)
Nice to be called cool.. usually me and cool are never said in the same sentence! Your also cool;)
@TAYLOR SWIFTS NUMBER 1 FAN
LOL, you don’t really think she stole it from you do you? LOL, she has no idea who you are. Your joking right? 🙂
@TAYLOR SWIFTS NUMBER 1 FAN
Well actually you never know! 🙂 She could’ve stole it! lol!
@IT’S ALL GOOD!!!
No, i’m serious.. i was just about to get on my lawyers unto her.
@SCOTT:
you are cool and i’m still saying it ;)! i’m open minded when it comes to music ! and i’m kinda like taylor swift ! no a fan yet ! but she’s cute !
and i like your pic more than adele’s pic ! and it’s a pose u know 😉 ! i like yours better !
keep it up dude 🙂 !
@theman
Um, ANYONE can do Adele 21!!
4 is an EPIC MASTERPIECE (as i said in the last Bey Post)
How can you say 4 is not a MASTERPIECE when every song is fire??
The songs on 21 is just OKay.
Bey is gonna be MAJOR COMPETITION for Adele come Next years Grammys.
*BLAST I WAS HERE, I CARE, & I MISS YOU*
@S***
Adele>>>>>>>>>Your life
4 >>> 23, 21, 19!!
4 = INSTANT R&B CLASSIC
AMY >>> ADELE = OVERRATED
Beyonce will be competion for Adele, but Adele will win. Everyone and their mother is up Adeles ass crack.(Except fans of h*** being dragged by Adele, they are pressed)
@S***
Amy & Adele>>>>>Ke$ha>>>>Your life
@THEMAN
H** Wait a minute!…
Come to think of it… WHAT THE HELL would you know about a MASTERPIECE ALBUM NE/WAY??
*GO LISTEN TO BIONIC*
@THE ICONIC pop royalty (I’m a rude Boy)
Haha, thanks! You’ve been the nicest towards me of any person on here:) I must sleep now.. gone 2am here. Talk soon!:)
Amy and Adele>>>rihanna>>>miley cyrus>>>STANK@S*** loll.
Adele said she thinks rihanna’s music is dope @ http://kelsnetwork.b*******.com/
@S***
Stripped>>>>>>Your faves career.
LET’S SEE HOW THE NON-SINGER TAYLOR SWIFT DERANGED TWEENER FANS REACT. INNERESTING… ADELE WILL EITHER BE HATED OR LAUGHED AT. SHE WONT BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY THO… SHE’S JUST DOING COUNTRY HOPING TO LATCH ON AMERICAN AUDIENCES CAUSE HER ALBUM 21 IS DOING WELL. PROLLY THE END OF HER 15 MIN ALREADY. OBESE AND OVERRATED – FOR REALZ!!!!
I like Adele, but umm she better be careful with how this next record is produced. It cannot be pure country/bluegrass. The inudstry in country music has more than enough space for new ventures and is seen as one big happy family. So, she can try, but it just looks like she’s tryna jump on the bandwagon. FYI Taylor’s music kicks ass, so there are no worries there.
I don’t like country music, but if that’s what she wants to do, I say go ahead. I don’t know if it will affect her sales. She has now built her fanbase from 21 and her fans will probably support her no matter what she does.
I know alot about masterpieces, apparently you don’t. You are nothing more than a bitter nagging bum. Why must you bring up “4” when we talk about Adele. Signs of an insecure lost one. What you feel about “4”, is merely your opinion. Whether you like it or not Adele’s album is astonishing. If you wanna play “Bitter Betty”, you are more than welcome to. By the way “Bionic” isn’t to shabby. Again ADELE >>>> THOSE ONES……. CASE CLOSED !!!
I don`t like country style.. and Adele gonna be the big mistake of her life. 😐
#Just My Opinion 🙂
