adele was not marketed in any other way apart from her voice and her soulful songs
there was nothing pushed about her background...those are the useless shit media go and research and shove in at people later on
and i doubt it had any impact on her sales,
lilly allen came from posh upbringing it had ntohign to do with her initial success..the posh shit came later on.
any marketing mogul scratching his/her over adele's success should be fired...or should remember that Music was once about the talent....not the marketing gimmick
You're so worked up you seem to have missed that was exactly the point I was making.
u were not making any point, she is not an anomaly
we get people like her every few years who have massive success despite their non typical image the industry is used to pushing.
ur problem is memory
Yes I was making a point and yes she is an anomaly.
You might put Lily Allen and Adele in the same bracket because they're both females but to males who look at them on a very basic level they're miles apart. I'm not sure if you see or care for what I'm getting at?

The Adelles of this world are becoming the prototype in the music industry. Labels are realizing that a lot of the times people don't want over polished groomed pop acts, thats marketing in itself, and music is about the talent when it comes to certain people, theres hundreds of talented soul singers who are decent songwriters who never get the push. The fact Adelle is some overweight average looking white girl definitely works in her advantage, she has talent, but has the music industry has shown many a time talent isn't enough.

Adelle is an anomaly, but at the same time she isn't if you get what i mean.
In the past few years the industry has been oversaturated with blue eyed soul singers with major success.

Like I said you may have a point.
Ed Sheeran being the latest.
Not in a million years could he have thought he would be as successful as he is right now and 6/7 years ago it would probably be impossible.

On another note, I stumbled across JME's wiki today.
Saw he self released Blam and it said he sold 20k.
That is a VERY decent number.
He woulda made over 100k if the figures are right, there are man doing this independently and living.

Probably wouldn't have cleared 100k factoring production and distribution cost, but he is difintely living comfortably off music.

Does depends on what the + in 20,000+ is.
But I'm sure the majority of them sales were iTunes as opposed to physical sales.
He does most of his own beats aswell, if it ain't 100 bags it is very close.
