Rumors continue to fly over what new albums will be released in 2014. New claims suggest that Adele may be prepping for a tour. Additionally, Lady Gaga's Artpop has been released in China, following a prior ban.
The fact that Gaga's album can be sold in China is truly newsworthy. After all, her music has been banned in the country since 2011, as CNN explains:
"In China, the pop diva's songs had been on a blacklist since 2011, when the Culture Ministry deemed her work to be "creating confusion in the order of the online music market, and damaging the nation's cultural security. Singling out songs from her album "Born this Way," Chinese authorities identified six Gaga tracks -- "The Edge of Glory," "Hair," "Marry the Night," "Americano," "Judas" and "Bloody Mary" -- as among 100 foreign songs to be placed on a blacklist."
But that all ended recently, when the country decided that her music didn't pose quite the national security threat as they once imagined.
Understandably, Gaga is overjoyed with the decision. She spoke about it on Twitter, where she also teased the idea of a tour in China:
"China has been given the go ahead singer I'm so excited!!!! The Chinese Government approved Artpop to be released in China with all 15 songs! Next I hope I can come to perform!"
Lady Gaga's not the only one that has people talking. According to a new report from Mirror, Adele has been in the studio a lot.
This has a lot of people wondering if a new album is in the works, especially since rumors surfaced that she's planning a 2015 tour (via EntertainmentWise):
"At the moment the discussions are all about a 2015 tour of the UK and North America at least, possibly a world tour. She has managed to spend a lot of the past two years focusing on being a mother, and wants to continue to do that while releasing and promoting new material. She has been back to work but is recording at her own pace. Her appeal has always been the quality of her music so she isn't about to rush release anything just for the sake of it."
