Adele’s “25” Album Makes Its Way Onto Pandora

Last week it was confirmed that Adele’s latest album, 25, would not be available via streaming platforms such as Apple Music and Spotify. However it seems that the singer has decided to make her album available on Pandora instead, but given that Pandora doesn’t operate the same way as Apple Music or Spotify, trying to stream the entire album in one go might be tricky.

In a statement provided by Pandora to EW, “Good news radio listeners, you can now hear all songs from Adele’s latest album 25 on Pandora. It is clear radio listeners love Adele and are coming to Pandora to enjoy her incredible music.” They also shared some stats of the song and how many times it has played since its release.

According to a Pandora spokesperson, “Since ‘Hello’ was added to our platform last month, her total station adds are up 1200 percent. Within that same timeframe, spins for ‘Hello’ are more than 5x the number for the next most popular song ‘Someone Like You.’” For those unfamiliar, Hello was Adele’s first single off her latest album prior to the album’s full release.

That being  said we’re not sure why Adele and her management have chosen to release her album on Pandora instead of other platforms. It was also unclear as to why she has chosen not to go the streaming route like many artists, such as Taylor Swift, have. Maybe one day we will find her album on Apple Music or Spotify, but if you wanted to stream it now, Pandora will be your best bet.
