Adele’s Next Album 30 Drops In November
Adele announced earlier this month that she would release her first album in six years on Nov. 19. In keeping with the titles of her previous albums (19, 21, and 25), Adele has titled her highly-anticipated upcoming album 30 and noted it served as her “ride or die throughout the most turbulent period of my life.”
“When I was writing it, it was my friend who came over with a bottle of wine and a takeaway to cheer me up,” she wrote when announcing the album’s release date on Instagram. “My wise friend who always gives the best advice... And then that friend who no matter what, checked in on me even though I’d stopped checking in with them because I’d become so consumed by my own grief.”
According to Adele, the album narrates her journey of painstakingly rebuilding her house and heart. On Friday, she gave fans their first taste of what the new album holds when she released the music video for the track “Easy on Me.”
