"Just a few years later, and we get Adele breaking her Grammy in half in tribute to Beyoncé, and Taylor being lambasted for cultural appropriation and using Black women as props in her music videos."
"Bruce Springsteen on the cracking carny speakers. Then Adele, for some reason."

"he also had only three things that were allowed to be played in the kitchen if he was there: an Adele CD, an R Kelly greatest hits CD, or NPR."
"Better get in while you can, folks. She'll probably delete it once she realizes how wrong she was (just like when she tried to cancel Adele for "sounding black"). Something is seriously wrong with this woman."
Phoebe Bridgers has the worst victim complex I've ever seen · u/Falcons2Flynn · ↑225 · 2021-10-11
"Female empathy for the ex is harder to find, though, at least in song. Even Adele, who isn't a heaper of scorn, falls pretty far short of Rob Thomas as far as explicit level of trying to understand things from the ex's perspective I would say."
"Don't get me wrong her voice is beautiful but like…I feel like this is the fourth time I've heard this album."
Has Adele been telling us the same story for nearly fifteen years now? · u/bussyboyfourtwenty · ↑104 · 2021-11-21
"what is so hard about saying "we shouldn't mock or stigmatize fat people, but also most people prefer to be thin and so getting thinner can be celebrated as a victory""

"There are a few artists left who kind of do the same thing, I guess Adele is the ultimate example, but it seems like the genre as a whole is basically gone."

"Soooooo I knew she lost weight and all, but only recently was watching a vid with her in it, and fuck me, she looks great."

"for example Adele has a profoundly incredible technical voice but it's almost too much and her artistry is bland in contrast. I won't deny Lana uses her voice to give off a certain emotion that translates very well into her aesthetic."
