Where is he speaking
eh, he may be right but she's soooo talented. its hard to be mad
If Adele wasn't pure greatness with what she does, I would agree with him.
Oh, and his wife was one of the most overrated singers in R&B history. So no need for him to comment.
Did they ever get married
I understand what he is trying to say, but no R&B girl has released an album as good as 25 lately when it comes to an album full of ballads.
white artists get way more credit than they are worth...and the world is racist
QuoteLmao fetty wap did crazy numbers this year and he's black.. You fucking faggot get over the fact that no one's listening to your wack ass bitches music and it ain't cause of her skin
jkhhjhjhkjhkjhk
fetty wap?
am i missing something? is fetty 3x platinum?
I understand exactly what he means!
But as others have said Adele deserves her success! Her talent is ubdeniable and she deserve what ever push it is that shes recieving.
With that said I do wish the media stop acting like her music is new.
you're missing the point.....she deserves success...but 5 times more success than the top black female artist?
its the inequality that people are annoyed by.

Judging by the material she puts out.....yes, she deserves 5x the success of the black female artist out.
Shes had her own hurdle to over come....her weight. Being a heavy white woman presents its own level of discrimination.
Now Miley and Taylor on the other hand

Yeah, Im not brainwashed.
Yes, being big is her thing. However, its not the norm, nor is it what record execs today consider marketable. Her music is sucessful because it blurs age and cultural barriers. Same reason why Janet, Michael, Whitney, and Mariahs music was so popular. Everybody could get in.
The black girls are either making music that is marketed to a specific age or culture. This is why they aren't selling like Adele. This is why no one is selling like Adele. Do I think shes the greatest singer ever? No, but I reconize when someone music transends a fad, moment, and time. Kelly, Bey, Tamar, Sevyn and friends arent gonna do it because they are to stuck in moment.

actually, you kind of are....you just dont know it....brainwashing is the wrong term....manipulation is a better term
did you think adele was so incredible when she was an alternative artist on Vh1....the media and people treating her like she's God has a HUGE effect on how you perceive her
He's right tho :dead:
For instance that "rise up" song from that black girl is amazing
But it didn't get a third of the push hello got
Adele slays but yeah
David is correct

all very true
the thing is if whitney couldnt do 3.5 million adele damn sure isn't worthy
has everything to do with the fact that she's white
Bro! Ive loved Adele since chasing pavements!
Which only furthure proves my point! There was no big push for Adele EVER! Shes never released 20 videos and dropped a surprise. She didnt use the fashion industry as a tool to market herself. She sold everything off of talent and word of mouth.
Everyone at my Thanksgiving table brought Adele! From my 14 year old niece all the way up to my 65 year old mom. Blacks are buying as well. You dont sell like that just based off of a white audience.
People respect her music first! I cant say the same for the black females. They like the performace, the hair styles, the dancing, the package. But the music is lack luster. Just being honest.
STILL missing the point...
a more talented black female artist with the same exact video and song wouldnt do 3.5 million....nowhere close
you are really living under a rock if you think her being white has anything to do with it...or that she's had to overcome 'hurdles'
are you white?
Yh her success is over warranted
If Jazmine or Fantasia sang 'Hello' they wouldn't be selling 3 million first week
i mean it's not the artist fault. it's the consumer. black white orange or blue. people are going to buy what they want and statistics show that...well...white people buy more than black hence why white artists aren't struggling as much to push units. it's really not rocket science.
Quote from: Culture on December 01, 2015, 09:31:10 AM
If Jazmine or Fantasia sang 'Hello' they wouldn't be selling 3 million first week
First off their singing style isnt palatable enough to cross cultural barriers. Fanny would sing it like a gospel song and the other would be running until the wheels feel off. Adeles voice has enough soul for blacks to dig in and pop enough for the white kids.
For the record Im black and very pro black!
But I said what I said, and Im sticking to it.
might I also add, it's not JUST the fact that adele is white why she's so successful. she writes her shit and has a story to go along with it. She speaks for the heartbroken and isn't afraid to push the envelope with the "asshole you hurt me" type shit. lots of female artist really try to follow the "female empowerment" route while Adele is perfectly fine talking about how fucking hurt she is over and over and people gravitate towards that.
not to mention, she's very down to earth and very IDGAF this is me. she's very authentic. though majority of her fan base is probably white, many colored people purchase and support her as well. You're right, if Jazmine Sullivan or someone were to sing "Hello" it probably wouldn't do as well but that's not just because of the skin color. it's more to it than that. Adele has a niche and she's comfortable in it and she owns it. her voice, her charisma, her artistry >>> skin color
I agree with everything he said. Adele is average at best. Her music isn't anything new and I'm sure I could find someone singing the same exact mess that's black.
Of course he's right. This is nothing new.

Well he has a point
But yeah, there are some other factors to Adele's success besides her race
I think part of the reason why Adele is so liberated and can give carefree etc so well
is her skin color. As a black person you face much more hardship and boxing that wouldn't allow you to be like that in the first place. I'm sure black people who don't "church" or "thug" it up have the hardest time getting a record deal.
I just don't see how it solely applies
and do we wanna make it a race issue or musical issue
because
Beyonce, Nicki, hell even Rihanna... they don't make "heavy" music :dead:
but they are pushed to the front
how about the same gorls that cry about Adele winning... go spend their coins on a black soul singer's alberms instead of spending on Beyonce concert tickets :kii:

Yall acting Ike black artists don't get the "push" that Adele ' s label is giving. Beyonc? and Alicia Keys are great examples of artists that get the same push. The only difference here, Adele just came off of an 11 million selling album. Not to mention, even AFTER the album was done being promoted, it STAYED selling. The bish was sitting up home with her feet up about to give birth and people were still buying.
There are also white artists that don't get the same push also (Jojo for instance, has been trying to push the R&B soul thing and wasn't working with her label)

I'd say ADELE's strength is how cohesive she is.
she doesn't do a wide array of vocals, but her tone is unique and she can SING.
Everything from 19 to 21 to 25
You can tell she's really into her craft and how it's presented. Ppl even say "she's boring!"
But it's just what's she's giving is connecting with ppl because she stays true to it right down to her dresses :dead:
I can't name a black or white artist who has done that with their career to the extent she has.

Robin Thicke was out promoting more on National TV than Adele and his albums flopped to the pits of hell.
When "Blurred Lines" came out his label was giving him all types of push. But it didnt work cause the public didnt want.

jojo is late
adulle is talented but not talented ENOUGH to do 3.5 million....a lot of black female artists DESTROY her in terms of tone, power, versaility, stage presence, blah blah...
same goes with taylor
generally, blacks have to be way WAY more interesting/talented to get the same success/ recognition

If Jazmine or Fantasia sang 'Hello' they wouldn't be selling 3 million first week
doesn't that have to do with fanbase quantities? doesn't that separate adele apart from a lot of R&B gorls?
her album isn't all that, though. 21 was much better to me
PART of the reason (not sure how much) she's so successful, is definitely because she's white.
if she were black she'd maybe still be uber successful, but not to this extent. She's super relatable because of her personality and what she sings about, yes, but also because she looks like SO many of the girls that are buying her albums lol thats a big deal to people. period.
If anything people are sheep and want to be apart of something. He label wasn't going to let this album flop after selling so many copies of the last record so they went into strategic marketing mode. They set up her return and album perfectly. Mainstream Media also played apart because the whole "Adele could sell a million first week" mess was being made a big deal before the album date was even released. Then as time went on the increased the numbers getting the public excited. Hence people rushing out to stores to purchase being apart of her "movement" It's genius actually but she's an average artist that's only getting by based on the color of her skin.
I recall some members stating that if your non black dating a black person, you should feel obligated to participate in topics such as black lives matter.
So does this not apply to adele, despite her making millions off black culture :howfestive:
IDK.
I just feel like the minor uproar has nothing to do with Adele being white.
Because it doesn't really matter who the artist is (white, black, Latin, chinese etc) people would still see a problem with the success.
Just because they dont use.
Like how its kinda always "(insert successful ethnic artist) doesn't really deserve their success. It should be (insert random).
The former's music isn't all that :overit: . Talented sure...But."
its always going to be that unless it's an artist a person likes.

No shade, but from my observation folks didn't
really LATCH onto 'Dele until Amy passed away.
Just sayin...

She was definitely the lesser of the two when Amy was alive.
It would have been interesting to see if Adele would have quite as big if Amy had gotten clean.

I would believe that if Amy was a huge seller. But she wasn't.
But why do you think that? Im actually curious.
But how can you say Adele doesnt deserve to sell her 3 mill, when that's what she SOLD honestly!
No bundle package w/ her tour
No surprise roll out
Wasnt a 99c black friday mess.
People found her intriguing enough black, white, old, and young to buy her music based off her and her voice!
So the real issue is, you simply dont like her and dont understand why that many people invested.
Furthermore, Wheres this push yall speak of because there honestly wasnt one. Taylors release is what I call a push! Adelel video was bout 20 bucks, and shes barely performed.
If it was Bey yall wouldnt say this! Yall would praise. When in reality Beyonce doesnt deserve half her manipulated sales and has TRASH music!
Didn't y'all say last week she's not a soul singer? How is she making money off of black music? ^o)
,
are they still engaged
25 is shit tbh
That's what I call trash

Now this sounds dumb.
Not only is the former false. The latter is too. You just don't personally use.
Surprise! there was no trickery. The girls chose to buy of their own free will.
It was an honest buy just like Adele's was.

same goes with taylor
generally, blacks have to be way WAY more interesting/talented to get the same success/ recognition
look at iggy...thankfully she's finished but look how terrible and corny she was....and the fact that a lot of you were going up for that mess just because it was 'popular'
lol right aeems like just cuz its popular everything is justified
mel teas
but whites loved them some iggy oh hip hop without a skin tone change

I don't know why there's even an argument. Like he told no lies lol!
Just listen to some songs no Urban AC. Some of them would've got a push on Pop, AC, Rhythmic etc. if it was recorded by a white person. That's a fact.

But, the whole point is for an artist to grow as their career progresses
I didn't buy Brandy or Never Say Never
Still haven't to this day

(and 25 isn't on any streaming service.)
It was. Sold 3 million. :dead:
Im just going off of what Mays said.
That's 8 million people that bought 21 that didnt buy Back to Black. That's all im saying. :dead:
Two different artists, time periods and PR.
Amy was being slandered by the media whereas Adele gets praise. Totally different. But all things considered, Amy was a huge star and her albums did very well and still does.
The real issue is that record labels don't seem to invest and believe in black artists.
A Jazmine will never get the push an Adele gets. It's racism and it begins with the labels.
Just my opinionata. :jarvwhereru:

Adele makes her record label money though. If Jazmine did I'm sure they would give her a bigger budget for promo.
Jaz isn't being given an opportunity to make her label money though. You can't possibly be that fucking stupid.
K michelle said that she had to give up potential hit songs to white artists because she was black.
The industry is severely white dominated. MJ Beat the odds but the industry quickly tore him down though.
I love Adele's writing
It cuts so deep, and it's REAL.
Sorry, what were yawl discussing?
I could see people being upset with Sam Smith. John Legend is a better artist in every way and that's an example of white privilege. Or Justin Timberlake. He is no better than Usher or Chris Brown.
With Adele, name one black R&B / soul artist who sings as well as her and has the material she has. And the personality to boot. Plus, she hasn't over exposed herself like other artists so people anticipated her return.
And c'mon. Adele is fat in an industry that only cares about image. She isn't selling only on her skin color like Katy Perry or Taylor Swift.

I can think of more than a few black ones :dead: and a few white ones too
I don't really think it's fair to attribute all of her success to being white. She does have some sort of talent and seems to have a genuine passion for music. But her main selling point is relatability. She doesn't look like a supermodel, she's not a sexpot and her music designed to appeal to any and every demographic; most of her songs can be played anywhere from the Olympic games to a romantic comedy movie.
With that said, that alb' is fucking snore and I'm tired of hearing about it.

2. She's slaying the other white bitches to, so like :dead:
Some of ya'll are acting like her success is the norm. As if other whites just shit out 3M albums in a week. :ohwow:

I dont understand the fumes, but Adele is R&B/Soul.
Not modern by any means but she has more of a Stevie/Ella/Etta/Marvin ballad style. Its more reflective of old school soul/jazz.

Soul is derived from Blues....
Gospel/Negro Spiritual...Rock/Blues/Jazz.....Rythmn&Blues/Soul/Funk...

Soon as she breaks more records white media will classify her as one of the best selling r & b/soul artists. And alot of people in here are just COMFORTABLE with her taking it over. Smh. Brainwashed foolz :supluv:
I disagree about her being labeled R&B by white media
she'll always be labeled "Pop" by them
These fumes are really unwarranted guys :dead:
Adele is talented
She makes amazing music, a great vocalist
And of course she's white so that opens her up to another demographic.
Beyonc? is light skin, curvy, and wears blonde wigs, which opens her up to another demographic. It's like stating the obvious at this point :dead:
But the BULK of her success is because of her talent, drive, and great music. I would never take that away from somebody because of their skin color.
And you can say "oh but Jazzys better!"
But you don't have everybody else's ears. We like runs, white ppl don't. Maybe it's the concensus us of America that Adele's music is simple, catchy, but still something you can feel.
Fanny? Not everybody likes ppl acting out on a track
J Hud? Not everybody likes ppl SCREAMING all the damn time :dead:
Usually the ppl that make it THIS big, have mastered that gray area of watering the music down but still keeping a piece of themselves. Because you reach more ppl.
I admit Adele's songwriting is simple and repeatative, but BOOM, a broader audience of ppl are captured.
There's no coincidence that NSN did 14 mil and then the gorls looked at WAU like... Oh she's adding GREASE to it, no thanks! :dead:
RnB in the 90's took big steps, blending pop/country ... incorporating hip-hop
But it was only a matter of time that RnB as we know it would get redundant like all other genres until someone revives it.
It'll come back around in some form :dead:
But if he thinks J Hud can link up with Neyo and put out crap mixed with late 05 pop influences and EXPECT her to get some big opportunity to go diamond, he's crazy :kii:
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^This!!!!!!!!!!!! All of it!!!!
Is bullshit

Ray and Gen' are just mad Adele came along and made Bey's "game changer" alb' look like a fluke.

She didn't though Lolz

Bey's is our black champion right?!
Um..... was there anything like HELLO on her alberm.
Or was she naked dancing around, getting out of limos wiping Jay-Z's CUM off of her got damn chin
But I didn't see ONE soapbox gorl complain. Is that how you wanna be represented?! "Oh Queen Bey trending! Slaying all the gorls!" Yea translation Slaying all the BLACK gorls
But see, yawl buy into this shit
So yea, don't really care about the soapbox gorls.
Glad Adele is keeping her clothes ON, being CLASSY, and making GREAT music.
White OR Black
And if we do wanna talk color relations and unfairness
Then Adele is selling more for the same reason Beyonc? and Tina had Kelly looking like a Heath bar dipped in kool aid so many years
And the gorls STILL don't support Kelly as much even tho they sound alike vocally :dead: and Kelly dancing better
Like ssssss
Get outta here with this white this, white that mess. :dead:

If Jazmine or Fantasia sang 'Hello' they wouldn't be selling 3 million first week
First off their singing style isnt palatable enough to cross cultural barriers. Fanny would sing it like a gospel song and the other would be running until the wheels feel off. Adeles voice has enough soul for blacks to dig in and pop enough for the white kids.
For the record Im black and very pro black!
But I said what I said, and Im sticking to it.
I see what you're saying.
And if for example if Fantasia or Jazzy did record hello. People would the be able to find songs on their album talking about being a Baby Mom, Hood Nigga this, hood love that. Etc... Where as Adele literally has an album with content that EVERYONE can relate to no matter age, gender, or ethnicity. Her music is very universal.

And how come you or nobody else made these type of rants when Bey did what she did?
Because she's "black" :dead:
Hunny lemme tell you, that gorl has had MORE breaks than any entertainer of ALL time white or black :kii:
And still putting out sucky music :kii:
But even still, let's use your logic.
"Oh if a black singer did what Adele does it wouldn't work"
Bey's is our black champion right?!
Um..... was there anything like HELLO on her alberm.
Or was she naked dancing around, getting out of limos wiping Jay-Z's CUM off of her got damn chin
But I didn't see ONE soapbox gorl complain. Is that how you wanna be represented?! "Oh Queen Bey trending! Slaying all the gorls!" Yea translation Slaying all the BLACK gorls
But see, yawl buy into this shit
So yea, don't really care about the soapbox gorls.
Glad Adele is keeping her clothes ON, being CLASSY, and making GREAT music.
White OR Black
Well, when you put it like THAT :-o
its still bullshit

I love Adele's writing
It cuts so deep, and it's REAL.
Sorry, what were yawl discussing?
lemme quote this since no one else did

Ray and Gen' are just mad Adele came along and made Bey's "game changer" alb' look like a fluke.
where's rih's alb?

Nothing special about her lyrics
Nothing at all :dead:
Hhhh she writes better than Bey tho
d
well that's not saying much
I remember when Jaz was nominated for 8 Grammys and went home with none
That was a sign of things to come ????
the lyrics can be repetitive, but her vocal arrangements and melodies >>>
they always feel very classic
Same thing happened to India Arie

! Almost timeless
She never over does it with her vocal production
Probably why it's easy to get in
I thought Bey didn't write?
Doesn't she?
she does however ppl say she's lying every time
so...

It made no sense tbh. Am sorr'
There is no valid argument of how Bey is treated vs other Black singers
besides that the Beyhive is the only loyal fanbase lolz

its obvious because clearly he doesn't agree with what I believe. In his view Bey doesn't write. Therefore saying Adele writes better in his opinion is redundant.
Maybe you should spruce up your logic bro

nah he meant that Adele writes better than Bey lolz
Not you trying to play captain save a ho and clean up for him hhhh
I hadn't even mentioned Bey's writing in this thread :kii:
I never said she doesn't write
Ok, so do you believe she writes?
The little she does write is shitty
Ok
Bent where are you? I thought he didn't mean what he said?
stRay all this scrambling
Just admit you didn't know what I meant when I used the word "witty"
It's ok bro, I ain't cool with you for your vocabulary skills lolz
I definitely didn't get "witty" from the stuff you were describing
Do you know what it means?
I can explain if you like
sssss
and whether he believed she writes or not had no bearing on the "wit" in his comment.
That's how I know you don't know what it is brah! LOLZ
Yes it does. How can he be making fun of me for believing something, he also believes
that would be hypocritical and illogical.
Yea I think I'm going to have to refresh you on the definition of witty
You two really need find something better to do :uhh:
:dead:
Fuck and get over it already
um he doesn't believe the same thing you do tho :dead:
He said what little writing she does is shitty
damn don't tell me you're rusty on reading comprehension too bro! :kii:
He does believe the same thing I do
we both say she actually does write
only he isn't fond of her writing and I am
yea let me refer you to some adult learning courses
don't be embarrassed

um... Yea you definitely listed two different viewpoints. Discrediting your own logic n stuffs lolz
Furthermore, it still has nothing to do with me saying he made a witty remark . Which re-enforces my logic being superior to yours :dead:
Damn You've been on those drugs again nigga? :kii:
No I listed the same belief but different preferences
Furthermore, it wouldn't be logical or witty, to make light of a person believing something you also believe
so yea what's your zip code? I'll google the closest Adult Learning Center for you

he stays makin shit up
Well let me just break it down to you
You said Adele's writing is horrible
Jayda said its better than Bey's
You asked him if Bey writes
And he asked you "doesn't she"
See.... in this exchange, Jayda was using wit. Because you said Adele was a bad writer and he said Bey's worse.
Nowhere did he initially say she didn't write. Which negates your whole, same point of view logic
:kii:
sooooooo ... you done being schooled? Or you still don't understand what "witty" is bro? LOLZ

And if we do wanna talk color relations and unfairness
Then Adele is selling more for the same reason Beyonc? and Tina had Kelly looking like a Heath bar dipped in kool aid so many years
And the gorls STILL don't support Kelly as much even tho they sound alike vocally :dead: and Kelly dancing better
Like ssssss
Get outta here with this white this, white that mess. :dead:
It's happening within your OWN iTunes library
(http://i41.tinypic.com/hvw8iw.gif)
Even if kelly was a better dancer (which is bull) she definetly cant sing better than Beyonce or perform better. Kelly is a flop because she's lazy and she picks wack songs. Stop blaming Bey for kelly being basic as fuck. Even letoya sold more albums than kelly ever did.
Wow adele selling millions while india arie, jill scott, ledisi etc will never happen outside of bet these days
Great points Gen!

Have a seat on the illogical bench son! :kii:
