Not in terms of vocal range, I agree to an extent.

If anything they're dragging Adele, she's 3x bigger than Whitney ever was.

I agree. She sing big ballads with BIG sales to match it up. We all know whitney was the better singer but i get what GMA is saying

Well vocally she doesn't come close to Whitney. And doesn't have as many iconic sounds as Whitney.

But if anyone is going to be this generations Whitney, AKA the voice, who would it be other than Adele?

And that is the better comparison.

She's the voice of this century just like Whitney was the voice of last century even though Mariah had more range.

I mean the public has spoken. The mariah, celines, arethas, pattis of this generation have the vocals but they aren't the whitneys: xtina, beyonce, kelly clarkson, fantasia, jill scott and a few others.

But Adele is the ultimate for which whitney was in her time

I'm gonna need for you to stop.
Where is adele's 7 consecutive #1 singles (STILL not broken)
Where's adeles 11 #1s?
her 13x platinum debut and 9x platinum follow up.
Her 17x platinum peak

Let's not play that game.

Mama Adele is the voice of this century like Whitney was the voice of last century.

What we are not going to do is downplay Whitney - the legend, the reason strong vocals can work in pop music.

Ties back weave, removes earrings, gets vaseline and sneakers ready.
That's what we are not gonna do LOL

This is an unfortunate and insulting comparison to the Legend Whitney is.

It's borderline disrespectful.
