My opinion that Adele is overrated is in regards to the quality of her music vs the public opinion
A lot of people say Adele has "raw talent," or, "doesn't take her clothes off, " "makes ~r33l muzik,"
but 21 was nothing more than a 60s throwback sound, which is something that a lot of artists had been doing (and a lot better at that) for quite some time
It's not really anything AMAZING as far as I'm concerned

Seriously, that is 90% of her popularity. Simply because she is the opposite of those who do anything for a hit.
The amount of times I've seen people say something to the effect of "Adele is the only singer who can actually sing these days". It's ****ing infuriating - way more than people who openly stan a talentless flop. There are still
many great vocalists and innovative artists in RnB and beyond, yet they don't get an ounce of support. But people still have the audacity to act all morally superior because they listen to Adele.
Someone like Jazmine Sullivan does everything Adele does a million times better, where's ha triple diamond album?
