    30 is one of the most flawless and personal albums I've ever had the pleasure to listen to, this is definitely Adele's greatest work to date.

The lyrics are exceptional they are just so deeply personal, beautifully raw, and heartwrenching; obviously she has always been very personal with her music but it really feels like she poured every bit of her heart and soul into this album giving us a candid look into just what she's been through the last couple years and how much she's struggled and still struggles. Her vocal performances on this album are remarkable and beautiful, just flawless she's never sounded better and stronger also love how she vocally experimented more. The production is outstanding, love the cinematic quality; I really love how she experimented with different sounds and genres on this album and doing more upbeat music while still having her classic slower and ballad type songs she in my opinion really pulled it off. The artwork as always is simple but effective and very beautifully photographed. Also I thought the voice notes on some of the songs were a nice touch that made the album feel just that bit more personal. This is by far the best album I've heard all year, just absolutely perfect an A+ album, and definitely one of the all-time greatest albums I've ever heard. Expand

    All the feelings are different, Adele in this album represents all that she felt, not just sadness "that is all people waiting for". Adele experiment with other sounds that reflect in her emotions. I particularly love it. Love her new sound, vibration, voice and she still being herself. No matter what she does, it's brilliant.

    Her best album yet: she literally put her whole heart into it and then handed it to us. It might be difficult to appreciate it while listening for the first time but it's definitely a grower. The best tracks for me are I Drink Wine, Oh My God and To Be Loved.

    Experimental and yet so familiar. New, but nostalgic. Adele sounds better than ever and the album is filled with masterpieces. There is a bit everything in here: classic Adele, 2 or 3 bops and therapeutic anthems. More than an album, 30 is an experience, and a powerful one at that.

    Una puerta nunca antes abierta por Adele donde desnuda su composición con tonos únicos y diferentes que enriquecen su gran capacidad creativa, cada canción es un paso a la gran historia que nos cuenta de su vida con géneros nunca antes explorados.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Adele very creatively, sonically, artistically shut down her critics who criticized her for sticking to one genre, even though she never did, her albums have always been quite versatile in terms of the sound they have. 30 is Adele's best album, 6 years wait was completely worth it. I'm gobsmacked and I have no words to describe how excellently produced this album is, on top of which Adele's extraordinary vocal abilities and talent SHINE throughout. Strangers By Nature starts the album in the best possible way. The grand vibes that it gives off are incredible to start your album with. then Easy on me starts playing and you think about how you've loved this song so much for the last whole month. My Little Love is tear jerker, Adele wrote this song with her tears, love, adoration and affection she has towards her son. the most personal song by her in her whole career. Cry your heart out changes the tone of the album and does completely opposite to what you've expected while thinking about the song title. It's then topped by OH MY GOD, which is an AMAZING bop by adele, it shows another musical side of her that she doesn't always let out in her albums. Another bop comes along with it, Can I GET it, adele's voice is so sexy and gorgeous in this song. The whole mood of album changes with I Drink Wine, All Night Parking and Woman Like Me. She does so extraordinarily well in all these songs, you think she just outdid herself but then comes the HOLY TRINITY of this album, HOLD ON, TO BE LOVED and LOVE IS A GAME, cementing adele as one of the best vocalists we have and emphasising on the fact that she's one of the greatest music artists the world has ever seen. ALBUM that's so extraordinarily made, you just want to hug it. MASTERPIECE!! Expand

    She caves into the clamour of her music critics and attempts a few upbeat tracks with somewhat reggae and country influence. It's distinct, and it's where the album feels nadiral. But don't get me wrong, experimenting with her sound was a brave and respectable choice. This is a solid record, and the songs sound like they're gonna stick for quite a while.

This album is her journey through leaving her marriage and from beginning to end, she makes it clear how she feels. My favorite song is "My Little Love" because there is something about the vulnerability she displays and the courage it takes to show those conversations she had with her son. in the objectification that she has made this album for her son to understand what she was going through, she succeeds in driving that point home. Her voice is as timeless as ever and she has grown and risen to the occasion of crafting an album that stays true to herself in a time where it is so easy to make something just to please the masses. This sounds like Adele and her voice is the forefront and driving force of the album and proves why she is the global superstar that she is. Expand

It was exquisitely produced by Ludwig Goränsson, is terrific, sofisticated and weirdly satisfying. The 50s vibe, her vocals, instrumental... everything. Then it goes to "Easy on Me", the only ballad of the album and surprisingly good. My little love is cathartic. To hear her dialog with her son, Angelo, is simply heartbreaking. I cried a lot with it. After it, "Cry your heart out" gives me "Right as rain" vibes. Kinda like an extremely satisfying reggae. Then, "Oh My God" is simply OMG! The hypnotic beat is simply not Adele at all, and it explores a known side of her: Hits. Together with this, country "Can I get it is pretty. The whistles are really cool to listen. It's like she wants us to cry and dance. The interlude is just fancy. Jazz vibes and Lo-Fi. It's pleasant. "Woman Like Me" is a diss track, and gives me Bossa vibes. "Hold on" is just rapture. The way the music grows throughout it is really amazing. An anthem to everyone who is going on something hard. After this rapture: "To be loved" is heaven. One of the most perfect vocals ever sung. Sounds really like Nina Simone, just piano and perfect vocals. It's over for "Someone like you", because this song is heaven. Nothing else left to say. Whitney is proud. To finish, "Love is a game" is like a movie is going to end. Barry Manilow, Edith Piaf and Bee Gees. It's the best last track ever made. Love is a game for fools to play.

    Exploring the poignant and turbulent emotions divorce has to go through, Adele's 30 captures an intimate and vulnerable sense of self-reflection, worth, and acceptance.

    Doloroso, maduro, expressivo, grandioso, transcendente. Não há palavras que expressem nem adjetivos que caracterizem esse álbum. Em meio a agonia e a solidão, Adele consegue ultrapassar as barreiras, se soerguer, olhar para si e perceber que tudo são águas passadas, que as reviravoltas são apenas lembranças e que sendo uma sonhadora por natureza, há algo sempre melhor a nos esperar.

    Os sons de clássicos Disney, passando pelo melhor do Soul (sua característica primordial), derramando-se em lágrimas no R&B e dançando sobre a dor com músicas pop... É Adele em sua mais sublime complexidade, que encanta, mexe com nossas vidas. Pois sua música não é reflexo apenas da garota de Tottenham que evolui. É reflexo da agonia e do renascimento de cada ser humano.
    Se houve algo mais divino produzido pelo homem, Adele chegou a estaca final do Paraíso.

    I loved every song of the album, especially the piano ballads. Also, the vocals were amazing. Denitely one of the best albums of the year.

    Her best album yet! Adele takes her classic sound, some new production and deeper lyrics and creates one of the best albums of 2021. If ever it was doubted she would last, she had ended that debate.

    Esse álbum é o mais fraco da carreira, eu esperava bem mais. O ponto alto é To Be Loved, de resto nada demais.

    Let’s face it, this album goes further. It is a complex work and it will take a little longer to understand it, perhaps we will never succeed because we are not her. It's an introspective journey that makes you think a lot, whether you are a mother or a child. I'm not surprised it doesn't works to those who just listen to it for the sake of it, it's too personal.

It's an introspective journey that makes you think a lot, whether you are a mother or a child. I'm not surprised it doesn't works to those who just listen to it for the sake of it, it's too personal. It is difficult to reflect on these lyrics and sounds as it could be done with the previous album, this work did not have these pretensions. But most of all, we got something different, going beyond the taste of the mass. A very mature personal artistic research. The experimentation: the cinematic introduction, the dialogues with the son who recorded for therapy, the jazz sample, the six minutes songs because in her there is an urgent need to tell about herself.

    Best album yet, the themes are incredible and come through beautifully. Adele has collided with a modern music world and also a modern world bringing her age title album to ahead of all others

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. El álbum tiene influencias clásicas de Adele, como el soul clásico de Fitzgerald, pero con el toque moderno de Adele e influencias modernas como Ms. Lauryn Hill, Janelle Monáe. El álbum es como el soundtrack de reconciliación con la vida, que empieza con la introducción mágica d Strangers By nature y termina con un sonido esperanzador de Love Is A Losing Game. Además las cuerdas, algo clásico en el sonido de la música de Adele, jamás sonaron tan evolucionadas, clásicas, frescas y complejas como en '30'.Sin duda alguna es su mejor trabajo. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. My expectations were far too high. After all this time I was expecting a bop, but the only songs i will listen to for a long time will be "Easy on me" and "Can i get it". It's absolutely worse than 21 and 25. Expand

In addition to the messages sent, this album draws a picture of the growth from lingering around comfort-zone music to seeking out and using her higher-level talent to write songs. Choosing this path, Adele chose challenging farmland to cultivate her musical plants, but she certainly will get the special gift from music and her soul. Expand

    30 is undoubtedly her best album yet. So raw and beautifully written, it takes us on a journey of what Adele has been through these six past years, and every song is perfectly put to explain her story and express her feelings

    Album after album we can see the evolution of Adele. It's brilliant the way see presents us these album and the track list. The different styles and beats was the thing I loved the most. Each album is unique and always with her style, which is the most important.

    The album it’s disappointing, there’s nothing new, it’s the same as his older albums, I only like two songs: Easy on my and Oh my god, it’s a really boring album, but Adele’s voice is beautiful.

    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.

    The richest and most musically adventurous album of her career.

    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.
