what about all the black singers with the same and/or more talent that cant even go gold?

i respect her voice but f**k all that other chit.

:pacspit: @ anybody that has a problem with what im saying.

U sound type stupid, breh.
Vocal talent only played one part in it.
Sure there's people that can sing just as good or even better, but they didn't have the songwriting Adele had, or the marketing/buzz she had.
And she didn't get the buzz for being a white girl, if anything they couldn't even market her the way they wanted cuz she's a big chick.
nikkas always wanna turn it into a race issue when that's never even the case.

The eyes are the windows to the soul. No woman's eyes look more beautiful than when she cries. :noah:

Pain, anguish and emotional turmoil make for the best art! Ask a bunch of classic rock folks that black folks don't listen to! :shaq2: and Joe Budden.


Yes, I'm fukked up.

Props to Adele! :yeshrug:

**sits back and proceeds to watch these c00ns celebrate white priveledge***

:popcorn::popcorn:

Privileged in relation to people who grew up to a crackhead yes, but to the average western world person she's not very privileged.


Adele is a great singer, one of the best out. But the album was a 3.5 mic album maybe 4 mics on a good day, the first album was better. Not close to Channel Orange though as far as soul music goes.

hey now... I'm black. I just recognize that in the 80s and 90s we BOUGHT everything.

MOP was bragging about one of their albums being one of the most stolen and bootlegged albums in the country at one point.

Now, we STEAL and BOOTLEG everything.

how can nikkas complain about a soul album not selling when 800k were downloaded and burned....

None of these other genres are stealing these artists shyt.

And no, I don't care about sales. An artist gets like 13 cents an album AT THE MOST on a major....

but gets 30k-100k a show tax free doing 200 shows a year.

I dont care about stealing your 13 cents, nikka.
