Hill, Mary J. Blige and Destiny's Child. But her true, eye-opening moment came
when she was 15 and she happened upon a collection of Etta James and Ella
Fitzgerald records at a local shop.
“There was no musical heritage in our family,” Adele told The Telegraph in a 2008
interview. "Chart music was all | ever knew. So when I listened to the Ettas and the
Ellas, it sounds so cheesy, but it was like an awakening. | was like, oh, right, some
people have proper longevity and are legends. | was so inspired that as a 15-year-old I
was listening to music that had been made in the '40s."
