Six years after the last success of her exploration of heartache and loss, Adele's powerful voice is back this time in service of the emotional torture and catharsis of her divorce.

In line with her three previous albums, the British artist in her new and long-awaited album "30", which was released this Friday, delves into the pain of the heart with her powerful and broken voice accompanied by the piano that has become a brand of the house

The first song of the album, "Easy On Me" , has been at number one on the US and UK charts since it came out four weeks ago, demonstrating Adele's resilience as a hit-making machine.

After years of personal and musical silence, her new work challenges the current standards of pop making quick hits with the help of the internet and omnipresent exposure on social media.

It was enough for Adele to break her silence this fall for the publicity machine to get going: covers in Vogue and Rolling Stone magazines, along with an interview with the queen of American entertainment programs, Oprah Winfrey, accompanied by a televised concert seen by more than 10 million people, so that his fans anxiously await his latest work.

In the time since she won 15 Grammys with her last album "25," which included the hit "Hello," she has ended nearly a decade-long relationship, including two years of marriage, with Simon Konecki.

The artist has been inspired by the traumatic period of the breakup to compose "30", which reflects the implications that she has had both in her own life and in Angelo, the nine-year-old son she has with Konecki.

"I want to live"

Although the twelve songs of "30" describe recurring themes of Adele, such as melancholy, heartbreak and loneliness, she has nothing to do with her previous works.

The 33-year-old megastar's new album combines her piano-accompanied classics with new forays into Motown and reggae, Afrobeat and dance music.

The polished lyrics sung in that deep, volcanic voice make for a profound change on "30."

"They say play hard, work hard, find a balance in sacrifice," he sings on "I Drink Wine," a song that transitions from 1970s rhythms to gospel backing choirs in a kind of meditation on self-acceptance.

In "Love In The Dark" she says that "I want to live and not just survive".

Some songs on "30," she told Vogue, were a way of processing answers to big questions her son had about her parents splitting up from her, things that are hard for a nine-year-old to "understand." ".

The Londoner, who now lives in Los Angeles, is a rare occurrence in today's music industry, with its wide range of fans, who listen to traditional radio and buy CDs while hundreds of millions of others listen to her work. streaming.

Everything seems to indicate that her new album is already a commercial success.
