Who is Adele?

Singer, songwriter and musician Adele, whose full name is Laurie Blue Adkins, was born in England in 1988 as the child of a single mother. The young talent, who stated in an interview that his family was of Turkish, Spanish and English origin, was abandoned by his father at the age of 2.

The successful artist, who was interested in singing at a young age, started her interest and passion for music thanks to the Spice Girls. The artist's professional music career began when a friend sent his demo to MySpace. After the demo, he offered Adele a recording contract with "XL Recordings". The young talent ranked first on the music charts with his debut album "19" in 2008 and became quadruple platinum. The successful artist, who released his second album "21" in early 2011, had a more successful debut than his first album and won 6 Grammy Awards, including "Album of the Year". In the USA, the album achieved the success of becoming the album that remained at the top of the charts for the longest time since 1985. With her album "21", Adele not only entered the Guinness Book of Records with many records, but also became the first artist to sell more than three million copies in the UK in one year. With her two albums and the first two singles from her album 21, "Rolling in the Deep", "Someone Like You" and "Set Fire To The Rain", Adele has become the top artist on both the "Official Singles Chart" and the "Official Albums Chart" in the UK at the same time since the success of the Beatles in 1964. He became the only living artist to have achieved two top five hits.

The album "25", released by the successful artist in 2015, made a huge impact around the world, just like his first two albums. The album, which was at the top of the charts in its first week of release, broke a record by selling 3.38 copies in the USA. In our country, the album made a big impact and caused controversy due to the similarity between Adele's song "Millions Years Ago" and Ahmet Kaya's song "Acılara Tutunmak". There was no statement from Adele's side regarding the issue.
