Adele is one of the best singers of our time due to her powerful voice and emotional lyrics. She was born in London in 1988 to a single mother. Her debut album 19 was released in 2008 and earned her several awards including Grammys. Her second album 21 was inspired by a breakup and included the hit single "Set Fire to the Rain". In 2011, she had to cancel her tour due to vocal cord damage but underwent successful surgery. Adele took a break from music to have her first child in 2012 and announced she was working on a third album in 2013 while staying in Los Angeles. Currently, she is focusing on motherhood and creating new music.
