Adéla is missing home on “Therapy,” the penultimate song on her debut album, Prima. The quiet, almost distorted ballad shows a different side of the 22-year-old pop phenom: On the nine songs that precede “Therapy,” she is hungry for pop success. “KGB,” the rattling dance note on which she opens the album, is defined by its tenacity — the late nights she worked to learn English, the pop giants she studied while growing up in Slovakia, her plan to leave a bold mark on the genre. But “Therapy” is just sad. Midway through the song, Adéla sounds deflated as she…

Since it arrived, some people online have gone on to highlight some common ground with Shelton’s ‘I’ll Name The Dogs’, which dropped in 2017 and went on to win Song of the Year at the Nashville Songwriter Awards the following year.

2026 has been the year of the prodigious popstar blow-up; from the sudden explosion in the careers of Olivia Dean and Slayyyter to Zara Larsson’s inescapable Eurosummer. And while it’s not exactly hard to pinpoint why we need constant uplift from the world’s troubles at large; we’re thankful that at the centre of this carnage, a pink-haired pop supernova has been serving up a potent antidote to the madness, waiting for just the right moment to cut through the noise. It’s been a momentous year for Slovakian singer ADÉLA, whose first taste of fame was competing on the 2023 reality…
