According to reports from places like Metro and Idolator, the Grammy-collector, who is halfway to an EGOT, is in "lockdown mode" at a London recording studio. A source told The Mirror:  "Four tracks are finished in terms of writing and she’s now laying down preliminary vocals with backing music and singers," adding, "The feel is very much Adele going back to her roots, with some modern jazz and a couple of classic old songs." (Did Adele ever stray from her roots?) The Telegraph also reported earlier this month that Adele was back in the studio for her third full album. Sounds like she found "something to sing about" again.
