Damon Albarn slams Adele's new album tracks

Rocker Damon Albarn has criticised songs from Adele's highly-anticipated third album as "very middle of the road".

The Blur frontman worked with the Rolling in the Deep hitmaker on five tracks for the much-delayed follow-up to her 2011 record 21, but he is certain they will be rejected from the final album listing.

He tells The Sun newspaper: "Adele asked me to work with her and I took the time out for her... And I'm not a producer, so... I don't know what is happening really... Will she use any of the stuff? I don't think so. Let's wait and see.

"The thing is, she's very insecure. And she doesn't need to be, she's still so young."

Albarn also gave feedback on the material he had listened to, adding: "I heard the work she did with my friend Brian, aka Danger Mouse. It's very middle of the road."

Reports suggest Adele's new album could be released by the end of this year.

No wonder it has been 4 years since her last album

[classiccity98]

Sure jan.

[slw84]

My goodness I'm sure even her most basic songs crap all over the current slayers in the game.

Stop withholding scriptures from us Adele.

Give it to us already

anyone with a brain knew this.

first rihanna, now adele... releasing an album in a post-1989 world is definitely a daunting task.

[LoKoPaNdA]

Awww but there's no way she'll do less than say 6M next era, she should just release something bc it's been too long of a wait

The thing is, she's very insecure. And she doesn't need to be, she's still so young.

After winning 10 Grammys, outselling people's discographies with just one album, and receiving much acclaim? Sure. I don't believe this one bit.

[Mike91]

He sounds so ****ing bitter about getting cut from the album.

And of course she's nervous. She's not just following up any album.

[STMG23]

So, it's gonna set the charts on fire?

[AMENHOOKER]

Well, yeah, she does have a lot to live up to.

[iLays]

Mess @ she's very insecure, she doesn't need to be, she's still young. I would think that's when people are insecure tha most.

I mean but selling all those damn albums who wouldn't be scared. Regardless, QUEEN will come thru.

[Floyd Mayweather]

She scared to flop

Girl, that makes it even worse. How do you even begin to follow up an album like that?

She is probably scared the slayage is gonna kill us all

[liberalmusiclover]

Mess. At least Rihanna did give us a *glimpse* of #R8 with FourFiveSeconds and BBHMM. Adele hasn't given us ANYTHING.

[Aden]

I don't get why she's so afraid. An album of her farting would still sell like 7 million worldwide.

[Kots]

She's bigger than anyone else and expectations are over the roof, maybe she feels a sort of pressure

But there have been so many insecure artists who have had huge success....not saying Albarn is right, but your argument is very very weak.
