The GP trusts Adele, they don't trust the others. And why should they? Adele didn't build her fame on controversy, outlashdish and ridiculous outfits and wigs, copycat claims, trying to be a new school version of the pop star that came before them, a bunch of childish public antics, pandering to the socially awkward or catering to the lowest common denominator. Adele is all about the music, so you know you're getting quality with her.
In short, Adele is real...while someone like Rihanna/Katy are fake products created solely for commerce and have an expiration date. 10 years from now people will still wanna hear Adele sing "Rolling In the Deep." 10 years from now, nobody is gonna wanna hear "Roar" or "We Found Love".

The Rihanna, Katy and Gaga fans are going to get you, but DRAG!

You know, I love Queen Bey, but I have to disagree with you.... I mean, I think it's a matter of opinion, but I've studied music my entire life and just listening to their voices, there is a bit more power in Adele's voice. Not to mention, she writes her own songs, so she can relate to her music more.

I just hate how everyone thinks she is more talented than Adele just because she jazzes up her performances a little bit more than Adele. Then again, keep in mind that Adele's primary genre is soul, but she has music of various different genres including pop, country, and R&B as well. Queen Bey is primarily R&B and pop to a certain extent. I mean, Adele doesn't exactly make music that you should be able to dance to, and that's fine.... A lot of soul music is not music that you can dance to. That's not her fault. Did people trash Etta James or Aretha Franklin or Alicia Keys for doing that, though? NO! Lol. Trust me, though, I know Queen Bey is amazing, I just think Adele is more talented vocally.

Technically speaking Beyonce has no flaws when it comes to singing, you'll never see her mess up, and she hasn't. I think what your saying is that you like how Adele sounds more so than how Beyonce sounds, and that's fine but I don't think that determines how talented one is as a vocalist.
Also, you're undermining the music styles Beyonce has explored, she has done: Opera, Rap, Country, Soul, RnB, ED, EDM, Jazz, Blues, French, Spanish, Urban Yodels, African...there really isn't a limit to what she can do with her voice but your allowed to think what you think.

I've studied music my entire life too, especially vocals, and I'll tell you right now that Beyonce knows how to resonate her voice EXTREMELY well, if the two were to perform together Bey's voice would cut right through Adele's, just like how Bey's voice cut through J Hud's voice when J was screaming as loud as she could.

Beyonce is a better singer than Adele, and Adele would tell you that herself. But they both take craps all over Rihanna. That's who you should be defending.

Speaking of Beyonce, I don't even pit her against Adele...simply because Bey has been around for nearly 20 years, has proven herself and is an industry vet at this point. She and Adele can simultaneously exist w/o interfering with each other, and I wish Bey fans wouldn't bother trying to come in here and 'rep' for her. She's set. Adele's success doesn't take food off Bey's plate.
Let's turn our attention to Katy, Gaga and Rihanna, whose fans are under some erroneous conclusion that they're the biggest pop stars in the world, despite not selling even a fraction of what 21 did.

Oh, I see. So, I'm only allowed to defend the person in my sig. How droll. Just like your warning points.
