Hurricane Adele is gearing up to sweep away all in its way.
The British-bred belter announced new album ’25’ this morning and no time has been wasted following up with details of the LP’s lead single.
Moments ago, BBC Radio 1 confirmed that they will have the first play of the track.
Full story below…
Host Nick Grimshaw revealed that the ten time Grammy winner will be in the studio to introduce the song next Friday (October 30th).
No word yet on what the track is titled, but what is almost certain is that an enormous media eruption will take place upon its arrival.
As reported, a the single is expected to be the full version of a haunting clip played during The X Factor this past Sunday.
Ready?!

Hopefully the song isn’t a snooze fest.
I agree. I wasn’t too impressed with the teaser, the lyrics seemed a bit forced. But it was just a brief tease so hopefully the song is much better.
It will
Be but sadly people will buy into hype n love it simply cause it’s Adele I’ll pass zzzzzzzzx
I hope it doesn’t outshine Ariana Grande’s first single which comes out a day after. This might be a label battle royal cuz both their labels give them the ultimate promo package.
I’m here for it!!! Cannot wait!!
@janstan….Hi sis……..
How is unbreakable doing this week
.
I would check myself but I don’t go beyond Top 20 so……….
It’s at #8 this week and expected to chart within the top 20 next week thank you for being so concerned
Excuse me but it clearly says @janstan not @kiiiiii
Yeeees….. She’s here to destroy and block
.
Riri looks like no #1 album for you
.
Moomoo 2.0 (Ariana) looks like no #1 song for you
You need to worry about getting Tori on the Hot 100 again boo. When Ariana had her moment at the AMAs singing Tattooed Heart, her album sales increased significantly and earned her the respect from everyone in the industry. Tori Kelly has had her moment several times and her career is still a failure to launch
That´s true… but when has Ariana got a #1 single to begin with??? 🙂 If I remember correctly she didn´t get none yet.
UGH NINE DAYS OF AN AGONIZING WAIT!!! I NEED IT MEOW!!!
So it begins.
That’s the same day Focus comes out. That will be interesting to see who fairs better. They are in two different lanes with two different audiences. I’m ready for it.
Clearly Adele gone win and I’ll be making sure of it
Excuse me but it clearly says @janstan not @kiiiiii
I’m ready for the slayage. I know the song will be amazing.
@grande the way
Tori doesn’t have to ride D*** or turn lezbo for a feature/hit
So you can make me c** that doesn’t make you Jesus
@s****** blind
I’m not black get off my reply section racist f***
Oh i’m sorry, i was just trying to be friendly, i read your name and you like Tori, i quoted one of her most famous lyrics, nevermind, sorry.
Now I feel sad 🙁
.
Don’t be sorry…… I’m sorry
.
Misread, misunderstood, mispoke
just Like my queen with that onigga drama
@s****** Lol Tori Kelly not Tori Amos
But riding d*** is exactly what Iggy and Tayloose did to get where they are lmao! BET Awards, Billboard Awards, AND the VMAs but ya girl still can’t get a top 20 hit? Has Unbreakable Smile surpassed Yours Truly’s first week sales yet?
These precious things… although s****** blonde is a p****, I do love that song. Tori is from my home state. Definitely a treasure.
Can’t wait… Also I guess we won’t see R8 till 2016, after 3 singles. lol
#PrayForB6
Beyonce has nothing to worry about sis. @Centurion
Poor ariana ki
Pray for her and Anti
Of course she does.
The song sounds promising. Can’t wait to hear the full version .
Lol @ pray4B6 when ANTIprisperant is coming next month with a FORCED SURPRISE RELEASE. Some of adele Android rihs sales will bey owed to Bey for blessing them with a brand new day called FRIDAY. Adele will bey lucky to sell 500 k Android rihgoat will bey lucky to ship 200 k lmao. B6 is not even done yet.. the hive can always SENSE when new honey is brewing Android b6 won’t bey brewing til summer 2016.
I hope Beyonce doesn’t release any ghetto anthem with her c**** … Am here for just quality music.
Bey is quite the HUMANITARIAN… she decided not to interfer with adele Android rihannas sales this year. On top of that she’s helping struggling artist like Nikki Minajgo GOLD by featuring on that traggic single of hers Android performing it with her last night. So nice of bey to bless so many countless artist with careers when without her they wouldn’t even exist.
The Pinkprint woulda still gone gold without Bey. N lol @ the struggling artist currently being on Billboard unlike Bey.
“On top of that she’s helping struggling artist like Nikki Minajgo GOLD by featuring on that traggic single of hers”
_________
Queen Bey is always doing charity work ????????
Lol Beyonce releases when all of the heavy hitters don’t. She wouldn’t hold a candle to A or T. Swift in the album sales department. Her last album didn’t even sale three million in the US. Stop gassing her up.
I guess that’s why bey realesed IASF on NOV 18TH just a week or so after T Swift released FEARLESS… & around the time Britney CIRCUS came out & Gaga FAME yet still debuted#1… its rihanna that has to wait for COAST CLEAR dates to release Android next month isn’t coast clear not is december.. adele will stay #1 for atleast 4 weeks str8.
How many albums sold 3 million in the u.s. in the past two years? What other black artist is selling like Beyonce in this current industry? Beyonce is doing damn well for herself.
Classless tacky hives …stop comparing Beyonce with black people all humans are equal.No one has any excuse not to sell.
But isn’t she the queen of music 3 million is all she can do after wearing bathing suites on stage how sad Adele can wear a moo moo and still slay Beyoncé overrated a$$
No one said she was Queen of music but double platinum album sales in 2015 is a major accomplishment. Only an idiot could deny that. Beyonce and Adele clearly have two different audiences. Adele is actually a stan so the shade is on you.
Also Beyonce released with Katy, Miley, Gaga and Britney Spears in 2013 fourth quarter. Who is Adele’s competition? Just an unconfirmed Rihanna release. Stop lying dude. Makes you look pressed.
Agree and they all say Beyoncé is the queen and shuts it down not these 2 artists lol Beyoncé will get sat down lol
RIP to everyone all i can say #Bye Felicia love Adele ❤
I hope it’s not that usual depressing music she used for her past 2 albums
I’m here for this entire era… After what she posted, I’m all in!!
If Beyonce released an album with Taylor/Adele she wouldn’t debut at #1. She is not a typical black artist. Keep the excuses. She’s so overhyped. They are her real competition.
She’s a global superstar. She’s at the same heights that Adele/Taylor are. They have both moved well over three million. That should be easy for Beyonce, with her name, stature, hype, fan base & media presence.
You are right that Beyonce is an international superstar, but you must take into consideration the genre of music she makes. Which is mostly R&B and Hip pop with a splash of pop here and there. Taylor and Adele appeal to a much larger audience. Let’s just be honest, race is a major factor. Especially in this current industry. Beyonce is on top of her game and her sales are very exceptional and rare this day and age for R&B vocalists.
Wow next Friday is a big day for music! Ariana, pia Mia, fleur east and now Adele! Can’t wait!!
Who is fleur east? ☕️☕️
Whenever Beyonce can’t compete with others, here comes the black PROPOGANDA. Lol, after all, she’s the one that calls herself a KING. So…. Her album sales just aren’t equivalent with her stature.
She can go on with the hype…but the album sales will just do what it wants ….beyonce is just too much of her self ,I saw that attitude a long time ago that’s y I never both nun of her albums
Who is it that she’s trying to compete with? If I’m not mistaken, Beyonce didn’t promote her last album. Taylor had weeks of promo runs and her album is POP! Multi-Platinum for black artists is rare in 2015. I dare you to find another? You have to take into consideration the stat of R&B and Hip Hop music now-a-days. Which consists of 99% BLACK artist. Beyonce is on top. No amount of deflection to a white artist’s sales will deny that. Beyonce will not appeal to the exact sane audience as Taylor or Adele. Different genres and levels of success and respect.
I guess this means no Giselle music this year huh. Poor thing doesn’t know which direction to take. She has moves to steal from Unbreakable world tour, an image to steal from ANTI and direction to steal from both ANTI and 25.
‘
Poor Giselle, must be planning her next gimmick I guess.
Oops looks like this will end Lana fad Rey’s career ☕️
SCREAMS!!!
Dies!
Looks like Rihanna will be pushing that RihLeaseDate even further * sips tea *
Adele saved music….and I mean real music all the others are just music you can get on bad and be a mad person …thank you adele ,long live adele
SCAREDanna
SNIPPETanna
#AntiRihLeaseDate
Where’s R8 tho?
Anti is being pushed back again! Poor Riri
Three flop singles, a bad album cover and constantly pushed back release. Poor Rihanna.
I was hoping Rihanna would finally have greater net worth than Miley Cyrus but I guess it won’t be this year.
At this rate Ariana Grande will have more money in the bank than Rihanna
Rihanna too busy getting pounded to actually work.
Rihanna has been with 10+ different men since her last single dropped… I guess she’s cares more about getting her pus pounded than her idiotic fans.
ANTI album cover is a complete rip off. It was copied and pasted from another picture. Rihanna is so unoriginal.
Rihanna wants to be Aaliyah so bad. Too bad Aaliyah actually had talent and didnt need to have her tittttiess out to become a legend. Poor Rihanna
Lol, there are other female artists that are pure pop & they don’t sale as well as Taylor. Excuses !!!!!!!!! Beyonce is not a regular R&b artist. She is pop too. Y’all use her sales & position in music to knock other R&B female artists. But since she can’t compete with T. & A. It’s about her being Blk/Genre. Bullshyt. The other r&b/pure R&b artists don’t get nearly half the attention & acclaim that Beyonce does. And that doesn’t stop y’all from calling them flops & what not. See how that goes…. Either way, her sales aren’t equivalent to her hype. Hype is what helped her last album.
Your argument is so invalid and one-sided. Beyonce’s last album is double platinum in 2015. That alone is a major accomplishment. The only one making excuses is YOU! Beyonce’s music will not appeal to Taylor and Adele’s audience and vice versa. That’s just common sense. Beyonce’s sales are great. Drunk in Love, Flawless, Partition, 7/11 are not pop idiot. Different genres, appeal and demographic. You can not call Beyonce a flop, because she’s simply not. She is only one of a few who manage to cross genres into mainstream successfully. That alone deserves props. Can you name how many platinum albums were releases this year? …..and you’re complaining about Beyonce multi platinum sales. Pressed and delusional or nah? Lol
Adele’s 21 album sales are not the standard for a successful album in 2015. Adele outsold EVERYONE in recent memory. Yes, her album was decent but she is highly overrated and that’s when skin color/industry politics come into play. Who’s to say she’s guaranteed to match 21’s success with her next release or even have a career spanning twenty years? I’m sure she will do well but that doesn’t make Beyonce any less of a talented and respected artist. Adele agrees, she is a stan.
Skin color ain’t got s*** to do with why Beyonce is not making adele’s numbers after 20 years in the game…
Her music is garbage. …she’s supposed to be above and beyond when it comes to talent..and yet I’ve seen the inside of her badge more than the camel
Adele kind of looks like Peter Griffin, doesn’t she?
Exactly. Beyonce’s music isn’t as versatile as people proclaim it to be. She appeals to the urban/pop crowd. It’s not always a white/black thing. When she topped the Forbes list over other “Races” the Blk thing didn’t come up. Again, T. & A have moved astounding numbers. Adele doesn’t have to do it again, she’s already done it in a far more difficult climate. Beyonce’s best selling album didn’t even sale half of what Adele’s last album did. Furthermore, Adele’s first album has sold around nine to ten million copies. White, BLK, or whatever, they are more dominant than her in terms of albums. Beyonce doesn’t have to make Contemporary Urban music. But she does. Even, when Beyonce has hits on all formats, she still can’t touch their albums sales. She pulled a ploy by doing that surprise album. But it just didn’t have legs. Her album sales were front loaded. No ones saying that she’s a flop. Rather, her sales aren’t equivalent to her star power. She’s worshipped in the media. She has preference over many many artists.
“Exactly. Beyonce’s music isn’t as versatile as people proclaim it to be. She appeals to the urban/pop crowd.”

You are contradicting yourself. Why even question Bey’s sales verses Adele’s, when urban/pop doesn’t sell as much as mainstream pop? That’s the point I was making. It actually is a race thing to some extent. Urban/pop appeals more to African Americans(blacks) over the majority. Beyonce’s last two albums weren’t even pop at all. Her album sales are some of the highest in this generation of sellers. If you’re going to compare Adele to Bey, you must compare Adele to everyone. Just the fact that Beyonce is still mentioned with the likes of Taylor, Adele, Rihanna, Gaga, shows her longevity and impact exceeds sales. The fact that she still outsells those who came after her, shows she’s here to stay. Even when she topped Forbes, the race thing comes up. She is the highest paid BLACK entertainer. She’s accomplishimg what others are struggling to do in this current industry climate. Your opinion is blinded by hate and biasness! My queen slays with her double platinum, 5 million sold ww.
I love how they say Beyonce is the baddest chick in the game… until you put her up to white pop artist, then here comes all the excuses. Oh she’s urban R&B, Oh she’s black. ok pest, just say your fave is basic and move it along.
Beyonce is the baddest. Why does that p*** you stans off? Don’t you claim rihanna to be the baddest but her album sales are weaker than Beyonce’s, with a thousand hits? You can’t not call anything basic and be a fan of someone with mediocre and basic talent. Jusy makes you look salty.
Lol Justin sales as much as her, and so does Pink. Both sale more than her worldwide. Beyonce was a solo artist in the early 00’s. And so were they. She isn’t really outselling either. You can’t call pure R&b artists flops in comparison to Beyonce, but then make excuses for her, when it comes to her Pop contemporaries. She can make music like Adele/Taylor. She isn’t forced to do Urban/HipPop. So really y’all are the hypocrites. She can’t compete with T. & A. So it’s a Blk thing. Lol swerve with that. Y’all sound like Nicki. The other pop chicks are pure pop & they don’t sale as much. Same difference.
Beyonce has a double platinum album, 5 million sold WW. $220+ million grossing tour & $121 million grossing tour. All in one era. Other than Adele and Taylor, who else? It’s getting quite pathetic. I’ve made my point and shut yours down ages ago. It’s getting pointless. You are stuck in the 90’s era of sales. It’s 2015. GN
All i see is white pop artist. Justin, pink, Adele and Taylor. This imbecile is really comparing the sales of an urban pop artist to white mainstream pop artists. The music and target audience is completely different. Beyonce doesn’t have to make urban/R&B music but that’s the music that is true to her. You really expect her to record the same type of music as an Adele or Taylor just for sales? That’s called a puppet and someone without their own identity. How boring would the industry be if everyone made the same basic pop music. It’s all about who you appeal to and what audience identifies with you best. I still don’t understand how double platinum is bad like everyone is doing it now-a-days. Lol Swerve with bitter your bull. You make no sense. You are the same one that said Art Pop sales were decent. I can’t and I won’t.
I don’t understand this Taylor and Adele comparison either. Taylor’s sales are a lot closer to Bey’s self titled sales than Adele’s 25. Adele has outsold everyone by trillions. Case closed. Rihanna has a billion #1 hits and doesn’t have one album to sell more than Taylor OR Adele. What does that tell you about urban pop music? It doesn’t sell as much. Just like R&B doesn’t sell as much but we have artist Like Beyonce trying to keep urban and r&b at the forefront, only to be told its not good enough. Beyonce is doing her thing. No amount of disagreement and hate will change it. She’s here to stay.
Ariana, Rih and Bey might as well push their albums back to 2018
She will come thru (hopefully)
Lady G’s album sold less than Beyonce’s last one & y’all compared the two. T. Swift has sold nearly 5.5 million in the US alone. That’s huge. She digressed from country & that was a huge market for her. There are lots of pop artists that don’t sale like Taylor. So being pure pop has nothing to do with it. Where is another pure r&b woman that gets as much hype, press, urban/rhythmic AirPlay as Beyonce…. Aight then. Y’all Beyonce stans are cool calling icons & other r&b artists flops though. But in comparison to the big dawgs her sales are mediocre. Sure, generally speaking, her sales are good. But as far as her stature and hype goes nah. As for Taylor, she’s been outselling Beyonce from the jump. Adele’s sales are something else though. Beyonce opts to do contemparary urban music. She can go in another direction & reach a crowd that pays her no attention. She isn’t a in depth artist. All of that humping & pumping ain’t that special to folks outside of her core & casual fans.
Also, Beyonce stepping outside of her typical sound isn’t following Adele. You can make pop music and make it your own. Who said 2x platinum was bad? It was stated that her stature, hype & megastar appeal should garner her at least 3 million units in terms of album sales in the US. Don’t misinterpret stuff. Y’all are just bitter that there are other artists out there that are & can outsell her, no matter the genre.
@Theman you couldn’t be more wrong. Racism exists very much in this day and age in the music industry. I read an article on the controversial tweet made by nicki about being a certain type of artist she would have gotten more noms. The article read like this.
‘Hey guys @MTV thank you for my nominations. Did Feeling Myself miss the deadline or…?
‘If I was a different “Kind” of artist, Anaconda would be nominated for best chero, and vid of the year as well… If yiur video celebrates women with slim bodies, you will be nominated for vid of the year?
Nicki wasn’t being a sore loser. Depressingly she was right.
To put it simply: When Britney Spears got naked and covered herself in sequins for Toxic, she was nominated for Best Music Video. When Emily Ratajkowski got naked next to Robin Thicke in Blurred Lines, he was nominated for Best Music Video. When Miley Cyrus stripped off and broke a million health and safety rules by riding a piece of construction equipment, she wasn’t just nominated for Best Music Video of the Year – she won it. All of the above videos have been controversial, but they were acknowledged by the industry for their impact nevertheless.
But as soon as Nicki Minaj – whose black body deviates from Caucasian beauty standards – dares to own her own culture and dance in a similarly provocative fashion, it’s glossed over and relegated to sideline categories of ‘female’ and ‘hip hop’. Meanwhile, white artists who adopt black culture as their own continue to reap professional awards. And it’s time to stop pretending that that’s OK.
This article could nit have been more right, and this is an article comming out of the UK!!! If they can see it why can’t you??? I can reference hundreds of articles from multiple COUNTRIES on racism here in the U.S and how much it Factors into music Artists. Ignorance is bless my friend and you indeed are deeply entangled in it.
Once again toss the race thing into the mix because she can’t outsell the others. Nicki being Blk had nothing to do with anything. She was simply pissed that her a** shaking video didn’t get a nod. So she turned it into a Blk thing as she typically does. Sure racism is there in the industry. But, Beyonce’s music isn’t that artistic either. When she was played on pop stations she still didn’t outsell them. She gets preferential T. over tons of artists. They even gas her up with titles that don’t evdn really belong to her. Beyonce is very calculated & strategic. Furthermore, the pop audience made Nicki who she is. She should have got her whiny a** up and yapped there. Instead, she kissed a**. Her nods weren’t about her curves. Beyonce took her spot. Simple as that. Then you had a few great videos with variety. Both Beyonce & Nicki play on the mainstream audiences too. Are they culturally appropriating for those audiences….
You seem to have missed the point of my comment. I was commenting on your ignorance to not realizing just how very much racism exists in the world of music. I wasn’t arguing about sales. Beyonce has sold 150 million record’s as a solo artist with just 5 albums. A further 60 million with her DC days. She has maintained relevancy for almost 20yrs now. She has 5 #1 singles that unlike these artists of today has spent months atop the billboard hot100 that equal a total of 36weeks. She changed the game of promoting in the mainstream world of music. Even set a new date for when your favs can release. As for music in general. Music is a subjective experience.
