30 is the fourth studio album by English singer-songwriter Adele, released on 19 November 2021 by Melted Stone and Columbia Records. Its subject matter centers on Adele's divorce, motherhood, and the scrutiny of fame, discussing themes of heartache, acceptance, and hope. Adele wrote 30 between 2018 and 2021 with producers including Greg Kurstin, Max Martin and Shellback, all of whom worked on her previous record, 25 (2015); new collaborators include Ludwig Göransson, and Inflo of the English band Sault.

The album is a pop, soul, and jazz record, and has been described as Adele's most creative work sonically. American jazz pianist Erroll Garner appears on the track "All Night Parking" as a guest act, marking the first time an artist is featured on a standard album by Adele. Upon release, 30 was met with widespread critical acclaim for its cinematic instrumentation, vocal performances, and honest themes, and appeared on 2021 year-end best-albums lists of various publications.

The lead single, "Easy on Me", was released on 15 October 2021 to international success. An extensive marketing campaign was used to promote 30, including the CBS television concert special Adele One Night Only that aired in the United States on 14 November 2021, the ITV special called An Audience with Adele on 21 November 2021 in the United Kingdom, and two concerts scheduled for 1—2 July 2022 at British Summer Time Hyde Park, London. Globally, 30 reached number one in 36 countries, including the UK where it opened with the highest first-week sales for an album by a female artist since Adele's own 25 and became the country's best-selling album of the 2020s decade. In the US, it was Adele's third Billboard 200 number-one album and the best-selling album of 2021. The second single of the album, "Oh My God", charted in the top ten in Europe and North America.

Background

During the conception of 25, Adele wrote enough material for what she claimed could be three or four albums. She later revealed that she had four or five songs that she might revisit at a later date, among them a Greg Kurstin-contributed song that she felt was more appropriate once she was older.[1] Multiple collaborations with songwriter Diane Warren were also cut from 25,[2][3][4] though Warren mentioned the possibility of some of the songs appearing on future albums.[5] In 2018, mainstream media outlets reported that Adele was working on her fourth studio album.[6] Drummer Matt Chamberlin confirmed that he had been in the studio with her for her fourth studio album. Along with Rick Nowels, John Legend and Raphael Saadiq in hopes of crafting an album "full of soul, with a more eclectic sound."[7][8]

Following Adele's marriage to Simon Konecki in 2018, 2 years later than media outlets reported,[9] Adele filed for divorce in 2019.[10] Following the separation from Konecki, and on a journey of self-healing, Adele began therapy sessions and mended the estranged relationship with her father.[10] Through this period Adele would suffer from anxiety, something she stated in an interview with Vogue inspired 30, along with her separation from Konecki, the scrutiny of fame and her motherhood.[10] The years that followed leaving her marriage, plagued Adele, especially the effect it had on her son. Adele decided to have regular conversations with her son about the divorce and recorded her conversations following advice from her therapist.[11][10] Around the same time Adele returned to the studio inspired by her conversations with her son and wanting to create a body of work that would explain to him why she left his father.[10]

Early on in the promotion for 25, Adele revealed that she planned to stop naming albums after her age.[12][13] However, on her 31st birthday, Adele published a rare social media post in which she – seemingly jokingly – referred to her next album as 30, alluding to the theme of her previous three albums' titles.[10] On 15 February 2020, Adele announced at a friend's wedding that her fourth studio album would be out by September 2020.[14] However, she would later confirm that the album's production and release had been delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[15]

Writing and recording

Erroll Garner became the first artist to feature on a standard album by Adele.

Using music as an outlet post-divorce, Adele went to the studio describing it as "basically running away".[16] Similarly to Adele's previous albums, the vocal tracks used on 30 are original demos.[17] Adele wanted to create a "safe space" during the album's recording and opted to work with fewer people than on her previous project 25.[18] Choosing producers Adele felt comfortable with influenced her choice in collaborators. Adele reunited with long-time collaborator, record producer and friend Greg Kurstin, which allowed Adele to feel as though she "could say anything, sing anything, and they wouldn't judge me."[19] Together Adele and Kurstin worked on six songs; "Easy on Me", "My Little Love", "Cry Your Heart Out", "Oh My God", "I Drink Wine" and "All Night Parking".

Originally a 15-minute song, inspired by Elton John and Bernie Taupin, "I Drink Wine" was written by Adele to express her remorse for not being present for a close friend and was later cut back following label feedback.[20] "All Night Parking" features American jazz pianist Erroll Garner becoming the first song on a standard album by Adele to feature an artist. Adele worked with previous collaborators and Swedish producers and songwriters Max Martin and Shellback, and Canadian singer-songwriter Tobias Jesso Jr.. "Oh My God", produced by Kurstin, was written during a period of time when Adele's anxiety was subsiding.[21] Referencing dating post-divorce, Adele wrote the song inspired by her first time flirting after her split with Simon Konecki.[21]

Adele also worked with producers for the first time, including Swedish composer Ludwig Göransson, and British producer Inflo (of the music collective Sault).[10][22] Heavily inspired by the Judy Garland biopic,[23] Adele was attracted to the new sounds, chords and cadences Göransson introduced to her which led to the song "Strangers by Nature".[19] Adele immediately gravitated towards Inflo, due to their similar age and both being raised in North London. The pair's recording sessions would often start with extensive conversations, before pin-pointing an emotion they wanted to write about.[18] Together they wrote and produced three songs, "Woman like Me", "Hold On" and "Love Is a Game". The latter was inspired by Breakfast at Tiffany's, which was played on mute during the recording sessions.[10] "Hold On" was written by Adele regarding the numerous times she lost hope during her divorce and features backing vocals from her friends. Recalling writing the track Adele said; "I remember I didn't barely laugh for about a year. But I didn't realize I was making progress until I wrote 'Hold On' and listened to it back. Later, I was like, 'Oh, fuck, I've really learned a lot. I've really come a long way.'"[23] By February 2021, 30 was mostly completed, except for some orchestral elements and backing vocals.[16]

Composition and themes

Stereogum described 30 as a pop, soul, and jazz record.[24] 30 contains elements of electro-pop,[25] dance-pop,[26] R&B,[27] and gospel.[28] Its tracks include choir singing, jazz-pop instrumentals, voice notes, elegant violins, mellow strings, organs, and horns.[29][30] Thematically, the album addresses Adele's divorce, anxiety, and motherhood. During an Instagram Live on 9 October 2021, Adele reiterated that 30 would center on her divorce.[31] Adele noted that 30 is more introspective than her previous efforts. "I feel like this album is self-destruction, then self-reflection and then sort of self-redemption", she said. "I really want people to hear my side of the story this time."[31][32]

Songs

The album opens with "Strangers by Nature", a cinematic song featuring organs, strings and mournful lyrics. The song closes with the line “All right then, I’m ready,” before leading into "Easy On Me", the album's lead single. The track is the second on the album and is a traditional piano ballad about healing from a divorce. "My Little Love" is a track dedicated to Adele's son, Angelo, with voice notes included in the song, speaking about her divorce and the pain of heartbreak. The album's fourth track, "Cry Your Heart Out" is an uptempo piano driven song, describing the feeling of relief. "Oh My God" is an electronic dance-pop tune, themed on Adele's first flirt after her divorce. "Can I Get It" is an acoustic guitar jam, with an upbeat whistled chorus. Lyrically, the song is about the feeling of love, and wanting a true, long-lasting relationship.[24] "I Drink Wine" is a gospel oriented power ballad, addressing Adele's divorce and shedding her ego before regaining the ability to love again.[33]

"All Night Parking" is an interlude that features jazz artist Erroll Garner, marking the first feature on a studio album by Adele. The song centers around the musical base of Joey Pecoraro's "Finding Parking" (2017), which samples Garner's "No More Shadows" (1964). The song is about falling in love in a long-distance relationship and the excitement that comes with it, even if it won't last. The song is only two-minutes and forty-one seconds in length, making it the shortest track on the album.[34] "Woman Like Me" is the album's ninth track, built on an acoustic instrumental. The song is about a lover not willing to move on from his previous relationship, and letting his past cloud his current relationship, with Adele calling her lover out on his laziness and self-doubt.[35] "Hold On" is a gospel-tinged song with Adele being backed by a choir. The song describes Adele longing to see her son throughout her divorce.[36] "To Be Loved" is another piano ballad, and was considered to be Adele's best vocal performance of her career. The song's lyrics address Adele moving on from her divorce, and finding the path to happiness again.[37] The album's closer, "Love Is A Game", is a cinematic jazz influenced cut that lyrically details finding love again and navigating the ways of love.[38]

Release

Vorlage:Quote box

On 18 October 2020, Adele confirmed she would be hosting the 24 October episode of Saturday Night Live, reinvigorating fans' hope that new music would be imminent.[39] However, during the episode, Adele confirmed that her fourth studio album was not yet finished.[40] She later hinted via an Instagram post that she would be returning to music in 2021,[39] which was further teased by an Instagram post from Sony Music Germany on 31 December.[39] Comedian Alan Carr, a close friend of Adele's, also hinted that the album would be released in 2021, describing the material he has heard from the album as "amazing" during an interview with Grazia UK.[41]

On 28 September 2021, tweets from numerous radio stations across the globe indicated that new Adele music could be released as early as that week.[42] Days later, Hits Daily Double, who previously reported exclusively on the album rollout for 25, reiterated that Adele's fourth studio album would be released on 19 November.[43] Unlike 25, Adele confirmed that 30 would be available on streaming services the day of its release, in addition to a traditional release on physical formats.[17] Likewise, 30 differed from Adele's previous releases in that it would not be released by XL Recordings; instead, its worldwide distribution was handled by Columbia Records, which previously only handled Adele's releases in North America.[44] On 13 October 2021, Adele officially announced the title of the album would be 30 and that it was slated for release on 19 November 2021.[45]

On 4 November, two weeks prior to the album release, Consequence reported "a major delay" in the vinyl record industry caused due in part to 30. Variety stated that Adele had to turn her album in six months beforehand in order to have its vinyl LPs ready for 19 November, the day it releases. More than 500,000 vinyl LPs of 30 were manufactured in the months leading up to the release day, with Sony Music removing catalogue albums from its overseas pressing plants to ensure "there won't be any shortage of Adele LPs going into the holidays", which coupled with the pre-existing delay in production due to the COVID-19 pandemic, became detrimental to albums by other artists. Ed Sheeran stated "there's like three vinyl factories in the world, so you have to do it like really upfront – and Adele had basically booked out all the vinyl factories, so we had to get a slot and get our album in there. It was like me, Coldplay, Adele, Taylor, ABBA, Elton, all of us were trying to get our vinyls printed at the same time."[17][46]

Marketing and promotion

On the weekend of 1 October, a series of billboards and projections displaying the number "30" appeared in various locations across the globe, with reports that it could be tied to Adele's forthcoming studio album, 30.[47] On Monday, 4 October, Adele's social media accounts and website were updated to match the blue color from the advertisements, indicating an imminent announcement from Adele.[48] The next day, Adele officially announced a 15 October release for the album's lead single, "Easy On Me", with a clip of its music video on her social media accounts.[49] Later that week, Adele became the first person to simultaneously appear on the covers of both American and British Vogue publications in the same month; both magazines featured interviews in which Adele revealed details about her new album.[50] The track-listing of 30 was revealed on 1 November 2021. The Target-exclusive deluxe edition adds two bonus tracks and a duet version of "Easy on Me" with American singer-songwriter Chris Stapleton.[51][52]

Adele announced a television special, Adele One Night Only, would air on CBS on 14 November 2021.[53] The special featured an exclusive interview with Oprah Winfrey, as well as live performances of both Adele's biggest hits and her newest songs from the album.[54] The concert special drew 11.7 million viewers.[55] For the UK, another concert special called An Audience with Adele aired on 21 November via the free-to-air channel ITV, and was released to its on-demand platform ITV Hub; the one-off concert was captured at the London Palladium in London, and with an audience consisting of both fans and Adele's "own personal heroes and heroines, fellow musicians, artists, actors, sportsmen, sportswomen and more."[56]

Adele is also slated to play two concerts at British Summer Time Hyde Park, London, on 1–2 July 2022. Tickets were made available on 26 October 2021 on Adele's website and via American Express.[57] Its "extortionate" ticket prices was met with criticism from many fans online, with the lowest possible price costing Vorlage:Currency and the highest being Vorlage:Currency.[58][59]

Singles

The lead single, "Easy on Me", was released on 15 October 2021.[60] The accompanying music video was directed by Canadian filmmaker Xavier Dolan in Sutton, a town in southwestern Quebec.[61] Its music video was considered to be a sequel to the music video for 25Pflichtangabe Text für Zitat im Zitat fehlts lead single, "Hello".[62] Upon release, it broke multiple major records, including the most streamed song in a day and week on Spotify.[63] The song topped the charts in 26 countries, including the UK Singles Chart and the US Billboard Hot 100.[64][65] Featured in Target and Japanese editions of 30,[66] duet version with American singer Chris Stapleton was released to the US country radio format on 19 November 2021.[67]

"Oh My God" was released as the second single on 29 November 2021.[68] "I Drink Wine" was initially planned to be released as the second single from the album, though the former was chosen as the second single because of its positive critical reception and better commercial performance.[69] It debuted at number two on the Official Singles Chart, being blocked from the top spot by her own "Easy on Me", and number five on the US Billboard Hot 100.[70][71]

Critical reception

Vorlage:Album ratings

30 received widespread acclaim from music critics, many of whom dubbed it Adele's best album yet.[72] On Metacritic, which assigns a normalised score out of 100 to ratings from publications, the album received a weighted mean score of 88 based on 23 reviews, indicating "universal acclaim".[73] It is Adele's highest-rated album on the site.[74]

Rolling Stone music journalist Rob Sheffield called 30 Adele's "toughest, most powerful album yet" with the best vocal performances of her career, and praised its "deft" production by her collaborators.[75] Neil McCormick, in his review for The Daily Telegraph, hailed 30 as her strongest record yet, containing "powerhouse" songs with "intense" emotions and "bravura" performances.[76] Emma Swann of DIY described the album as "raw and uncompromising", matching cinematic music with lyrics on "the pain, the self-flagellation, the hope, the acceptance."[77]

Evening StandardVorlage:'s David Smyth called 30 "a devastating comeback" filled with both uptempo songs and heavy ballads.[78] Mikael Wood of Los Angeles Times opined the album examines "love's causes and consequences" using Adele's personal experiences, and highlighted her "soaring yet pulpy, gorgeous" vocals.[79] The Independent critic Annabel Nugent found the subject matter candid, unfiltered and "unmediated", as well as containing some optimistic love songs, unlike her previous records whose sad themes "can be wearisome in excess."[80] Kate Solomon, writing for i, said that 30 was a "reverent and messy, polished and painful" album from a "woman in turmoil, from raging wine-fuelled nights to quiet teary moments".[81]

David Cobbald, reviewing for The Line of Best Fit, complimented the theatrical essence of 30 and the use of electronic instruments and synthesisers in its production, but dismissed songs such as "Oh My God" and "Can I Get It" as "questionable".[82] Pitchfork critic Jillian Mapes called 30 an "incredibly moving album" and Adele's most ambitious work to-date due to its "nuanced" production, but ruled out "Can I Get It" as a non-essential, pop radio filler.[83] Reviews by NMEVorlage:'s El Hunt and The GuardianVorlage:'s Alexis Petridis were mixed. Hunt said 30 was Adele's most creative album, but with lyrics still in "safer territory"; Hunt appreciated the new sounds, but felt the compositions of "Hold On", "I Drink Wine" and "Can I Get It" were jarring.[84] Petridis said the album is monotonous musically and lyrically to her previous albums, and "given their sales figures, you couldn't blame Adele for declining to even tinker with a formula that clearly ain't broke. But she does, and it makes for 30Vorlage:'s highlights."[85] Tom Hull was more critical, grading it a "B-minus" and finding it "all overblown".[86]
