21
by ADELE

21 is the second studio album release by British singer-songwriter Adele, released January 24, 2011. 21 contains 11 tracks, with 10 Adele-co-written originals, including Rolling In The Deep, Set Fire To The Rain and Someone Like You, and one cover version of The Cure’s Lovesong.

21 opened with a 11-week stay as the UK’s Official Number 1 album, and would go on to accumulate 23 weeks as chart-topper – the longest ever for a female solo artist. The tracks were produced by Rick Rubin, Paul Epworth, Jim Abbiss and Dan Wilson and recorded in multiple locations including London, Colorado, Malibu and Denver.
