    Sadly, Adele Adkins is once again delivering a recycled version of her hit album "21", and while her last project had some power ballads, this album fails to make a splash.

    This Adele’s best work. Unlike renaissamples, Adele sat and wrote the album. It’s artistically and lyrically magnificent.

    This is her most vulnerable, honest, and experimental album to date. Adele still hasn't lost her power to make us FEEL amid all the overproduced or production-driven TikTok hits that are all the rage these days.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. 30 is a new experimental sound done by Adele. She showed her versatility from R&B to Jazz and Pop Ballads. Her vocals are more vulnerable and her songs are so honest to the point that’ll make someone tear up and feel for her. Her self-awareness makes her more human and she understands each song has its own magic to it as they address each chapter of her life being a mother, wife and a divorcee.… Expand

    Adele never fails to deliver excellent quality music! I'm not divorced, but 30 makes me feel like one. Adele is truly a phenomenal singer and songwriter.

    O álbum está muito bom. É o mais vulnerável, sincero e reflexivo da Adele.
    Com visuais igualmente muito bons, um exemplo é o clipe de Oh my God!
    A Adele apresenta-nos o melhor álbum do ano!!!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This album is the best body of work she's ever created. It just is that complete album that is ahead of its time. We will all look back at it and adore it all over again in the next few years. Songs like Hold on and To Be Loved will make you shed tears for what she has had to go through. Overall it's a complete album. Chef's kiss.… Expand

    This album deserves way more recognition, IT IS NOT JUST ABOUT BEING DIVORCED. It's about self-reflecting, life acceptance, free will, growing maturity, and forgiveness.

    Adele no sabe desepcionar a su público, nos trae su mejor álbum hasta el momento, con agradables sonidos y grandes mensajes como en Hold On, sin duda alguna se mantiene fiel a lo que sabe hacer dándonos siempre exelentes trabajos.

    Despite her albums being snapshots, sometimes a little more diversity in subject matter would be a good thing. Ultimately, while some intriguing risks have been taken, 30 is probably the weakest, as well as conversely the most intimate and in many ways bravest, Adele album to date.

    There are no glaring missteps, and it’s generally a very good effort from a singer who could have crumbled under the pressure of heightened expectations, but instead continues on the path she forged for herself.
