The thing is.. she took so long to release something after 21 that it's almost guarenteed that anything she releases now will feel underwhelming. It's not that she hyped up her own work, but it's just so anticipated by the public that she's really set-up to fail.
I wish her the best though. It'll be interesting to see how she does either way. I'm sure most of the industry is perched to see how she does post Apple Streaming + Global Friday Release date, post-1989 (can she match or surpass Taylor Swift's pop album?) and how she does with Rihanna releasing soon (or maybe not).
Release in 2016 Adele! You, Katy, Gaga, Beyonce and Taylor (and maybe Rihanna) can all release together
