It's official: Adele has plans for new album, read her lengthy announcement
It's official: Adele will release a new album this year. The British songstress confirmed the news in a lengthy post on Facebook Wednesday.
"My last record was a break-up record and if I had to label this one I would call it a make-up record," she wrote. "I'm making up with myself. Making up for lost time. Making up for everything I ever did and never did. But I haven't got time to hold on to the crumbs of my past like I used to. What's done is done."
"Turning 25 was a turning point for me, slap bang in the middle of my twenties," she added. "Teetering on the edge of being an old adolescent and a fully-fledged adult, I made the decision to go into becoming who I'm going to be forever without a removal van full of my old junk. I miss everything about my past, the good and the bad, but only because it won't come back."
As she's done with previous releases, Adele is naming her album after the age she was when she wrote the songs. This one will be dubbed "25."
Adele, who is now 27 and is mom to 3-year-old son Angelo, will release the collection on Nov. 20. It will mark her first studio album since 2011's "21," which went on to become a top-seller and win multiple Grammys.
She's rumored to be collaborating with Max Martin, Diane Warren and One Republic's Ryan Tedder. Over the weekend, she teased what appears to be a snippet from the third set as part of a TV commercial that ran the U.K.
