But for real, her music is really doing something special... It's rare that an artist or an album can touch so many people the way this one has... She's really bringing it back to the voice and the music (in the mainstream)... Take Whitney Houston for example... We've all probably seen at least 20 live performances from her in the past week and the majority of them are her just standing there singing... And they're all great... Nobody would wanna watch Rihanna or Lady Gaga just stand there and sing... They don't have the voices for that... They need all that other shit... Now I'm not putting Adele up there with Whitney (almost smacked a girl earlier this week for that), but Adele's voice is good enough that she can stand there and sing and have everyone sit there like, "damn, she makes that shit look effortless..."

Just heard that she's going back in the studio soon... Looking forward to 23! haha....
