WIZ KHALIFA REVEALS DETAILS ABOUT ADELE COLLABORATION

If there is one collaboration we can’t wait to hear, it’s Wiz Khalifa and Adele‘s. The Taylor Gang rapper first announced that he was working with the soulful British singer in September 2013 — and now he is revealing exciting details about the forthcoming tune.
“It’s a cross between [the sounds of] right now and the ’60s and ’70s,” Khalifa told Fuse News. “It’s really hippie.”
When asked how he wound up collaborating with the ‘Someone Like You’ singer, Khalifa replied, “You just put energy out there and good energy comes back. You never really know who enjoys your music and what you do.” But it wasn’t just the good vibes that hooked him up with Adele — in fact, the ‘We Dem Boyz’ singer had a little help from his wife, Amber Rose.
“[Adele]’s a huge fan of Amber as well. I saw her at the Grammys and she’s like, ‘Wiz, move out of the way. I need to take a picture with Amber,’” Khalifa elaborated. “You just never know who you touch with what you do.”
So, when can we expect to hear the track? As of right now, there’s no telling when the song will come out.
“I just hope that we can put it on the album or maybe we can make something else, too,” Khalifa said.
Only time will tell — Wiz is expecting to drop his latest album, ‘Blacc Hollywood,’ in Summer 2014.

AND THE RECORD GOES TO... Adele !

Adele has had a bit of a quiet 2013 – relatively speaking since she did, you know, win an Oscar, in addition to enjoying her first full year as a mother. She managed to notch another accolade without doing much, though.

Her 2011-released smash ’21′ is the first album to sell 3 million digital copies. The album, which landed in January (in Europe) and in February (in the U.S.) of 2011, has sold a total of nearly 11,000,000 copies, landing it at the plum spot of No. 13 on SoundScan’s best-selling platters since the organization began keeping score in 1991.

Yahoo! reports some intriguing facts and figures. Like the fact that ’21′ has sold 7,757,000 copies on CD format – which is just under 75% of the total haul. That’s interesting, given the rapid decline of the compact disc. The 3 million digital copies accounts for about 28% of the total sold, while 40,000 were sold on vinyl LPs, which tallies less than 1% of the total. We must add that Adele’s voice on vinyl must sound like a dream!

Perhaps the fact that so many copies of ’21′ were sold on CD speaks to Adele’s demographic, and proves that most of her fans are of an older demo that still purchases CDs?

Or maybe it’s just the fact that ’21′ is one of those albums that you have to own in hard copy form? Could be!
