The desperation among Beyonce fans to discredit the genuineness, authenticity and deserved success of Adele is laughable. She's a singer-songwriter who was from an independent label, 21's quality absolutely catapulted her into the stratosphere. No sex, just music. Most white artists are commercial successful because they're white. Some white artists are commercially successful because they are just that: talented. Rare but it happens. Only a fool would believe that Adele is only successful because she's white. Only a fool would doubt her skill as a songwriter, a creator. Oh and btw, "21" had a MULTIRACIAL audience, people in ALL continents bought the album because it spoke to something each of us could relate to: a shitty break-up.
