Lol Adele is a famous songwriter. She got famous for her story and her ballads. There are plenty of white female artists like her that remain unused and irrelevant. Adele managed to write a great infectious song like RITF that many people identified with. She also was a breath of freshness in the time she came in. Sure she's overrated, but there's no racism involved. Adele was just the chosen one.
Of course Beyonce wouldn't be appreciated the same way when she's skinny + booty shaked her way through her career.
Oh Ed Sheeran's album sounds pretty solid Wow idk who is gonna win AOTY I'm really digging his sound
If Thinking Out Loud had smashed earlier in the year I feel like he could have won, but right now Beyonce and Sam's albums have had a better run and are more likely candidates.
No one cares who you knew. It was huge from the get-go. It debuted at #1 with over 350k in the early months of the year and remained a big seller throughout the year.
That's like saying everybody knows who J Cole is or knows any of his songs just because he debuted with good numbers. A lot of people didn't know who Adele was unless they were music fans, and I was considered apart of the 'gp' until I joined ATRL. She started to become very famous when Rolling in the Deep started to smash, and that was in March.

the convo is above just one artist
And did she shake her ass when she was singing at the oscars FIVE times in one night when she went solo I don't think so ,
American boy and Thank you is like her only good songs tho I would of said Adele myself !
Adele has some good music
Beyoncé is all about her culture
I remember during an interview for Cadillac Records when Beyonce straight said Muddy Waters was the King of R&R, and not Elvis. Again I'm not mad at Adele herself I'm upset over things that are bigger then Adele herself and that wadmt fat shade.
Adele's music just had universal appeal. Otherwise, the HOOD would not be using:
I don't know what the thing Azealia done started, but it needs to end. Azealia is not successful because of HER, not because of the white man or the white man wanting to buy black music with whites selling it. Half of those R&B girls NOW are making generic trash and don't deserve to make it big, and this is coming from someone who is a huge fan of the music. And one minute Adele is R&B, then she's MOR/adult contemporary music similar to Celine.

Black person ______ is the real ______ of________ is such a tired reductive argument. She prob read it in music origins for dummies when she was researching for her part in Cadillac Records.

She wasn't a complete unknown is the point. This is the same girl that won two major categories at the Grammys and had a huge year with 19 in the UK. She had a following.
My point is, that her album was huge out of the gate. Yes, but "Rolling in the Deep" took Adele to major places. That's undeniable.

Yeah Sam is a front-runner, but honestly I think Ed's album is more cohesive than his. Took me a while to get into his songs but Ed's album is better as a whole. His sound is dynamic and more versatile than Sam's. Ugh I hope if Bey doesn't win, Ed wins.
I will be sad if Sam wins...his album just isn't that good - only a few stand-out tracks.

OMG I loved big Sean's cover . i literally fell in love with Adele
At one point, don't the writers realize how ****** the lyrics are?
Doesn't the singer realize how bad his vocals are?
Doesn't the producer realize how bad and generic the production is...
let alone the overall song? Like who told them it was good?
Who filmed the video? His mum?
hahhaha at least he's living his dream!!! He doesn't have that bad of a flow tbh, the trumpets are too loud but I've heard worse. Hmm lemme see if I can find worse hold on
