No more Adele albums for two years, says Adele
By CMU Editorial | Published on Monday 12 December 2011
Adele has revealed that she won’t be releasing a successor to her latest album, ’21’, for several years, saying she needs time to “just ‘be'” before she can begin work on a new LP.
Communicating via email, the 23 year old singer told Billboard: “I’m really looking forward to some time to do nothing. I imagine I’ll be 25 or 26 by the time my next record comes out, as I haven’t even thought about my third record yet. I’m just gonna lay some concrete, set up home and just ‘be’ for a bit. I’ll disappear and come back with a record when it’s good enough. There will be no new music until it’s good enough and until I’m ready”.
As to when she’ll next be able to sing following an operation to fix a hemorrhaged vocal cord, she said: “The surgery couldn’t have gone better. But because I was singing with damaged vocal cords for three or four months, and because of the surgery, and because of the silence after the surgery, I now have to build myself back up vocally. It’s gonna be a lot easier for me to sing now. And mentally I won’t be worried about my voice on stage anymore. So I have to get used to that. That’ll take most of January, so February I’ll be singing properly!”
