Adele appeals to ALL audiences you mean, including older people, not just older people. That´s her success and her talent has universal appeal. Something pretty much any other name on this list doesn´t have. It´s not Adele´s fault if nobody outside some young fans of Rihanna think Rihanna is worth checking in a serious way (meaning a must-buy album). Rihanna and the rest on that list don´t have anuversal appeal, and theer´s not more to it really. That´s why they cannot blow, like Adele. Streams are teh only saving grace this basic generation and current industry could come up with.
