Adele Is Going To Have Singing Lessons

Adele Taking Singing Lessons

You might be thinking, "Why on Earth would Adele ever need singing lessons?" but we're here to tell you that it's probably a good idea.

It has nothing to do with the quality or sound of her voice, but everything to do with keeping her voice in a pristine condition that will minimize wear and tear, and issues that have actually already had an effect on her U.S. tour.

Rest is the doctor's orders, and that's why she has had to cut her tour short, however, with the help of a famous vocal coach, she hopes to master a new way of singing that'll keep this from happening again!

She's looking to Ron Anderson, famous for coaching Alicia Keys, Joss Stone, and the Red Hot Chili Peppers. Here's what he had to say:

"There are commonly two approaches singers take. They are called 'singing through your chest' or 'singing through your head'.

"Singing through your chest can increase the chances of callouses and nodules appearing on the vocal chords. But the latter approach drastically decreases the chances of those problems occurring.

"Adele sings more through her chest at the moment."

Inneresting!

Well, we totally hope that it works out! We know that Adele is a hard worker, so we wouldn't be surprise if she picked up on this new method rather quickly.

Which will be fantastic, because we can't live our lives without her!

Feel better, Adele!

Mick Jagger Has Formed A Secret Supergroup!

Filed under: Joss Stone > Music Minute

Jagger Super Group

Mick Jagger has formed a secret supergroup of musicians, and as of now they're called Super Heavy.

Pretty great band name, not going to lie. So who's in it?

Well, a lot of people:
Eurythmics star Dave Stewart, Damian Marley, Joss Stone and Indian musician and producer A.R. Rahman.

Holy shizz! Not only is that a LOT of talent, but that's extremely eclectic! We wonder if it works!

Here's what people in the know have been saying about it:

"They just finished a record and their first video and are talking to major labels about a deal. The name for the band at the moment is Super Heavy."

"Each member has a very distinct and different style, but it works. Mick has been recording with Dave for a while, and both worked with Joss in the past."

Such a cool and interesting group of people put together to record. We have no idea what the music would even sound like, but we'd be lying to say that we aren't extremely curious!

Send us a sample, Mick! We'll premiere it for you!

Joss Stone To Release Greatest Hits Album

joss stone to release greatest hits album

Listen up, Joss Stone fans!

The singer has announced that she'll be releasing a greatest hits album, Super Duper Hits: The Best Of Joss Stone, on February 21st.

No word yet on whether she'll include any new songs on the compilation.

Last time she released an album, Joss recommended that listeners "roll a spliff" before they give it a listen. Hopefully this time, she'll be confident enough in her greatest hits to gives us the O-K to listen to this one, substance free.

Will U give Joss' greatest hits album a sober listen?
