I first became aware of Adéla through TikTok, where I kept seeing her pop up and hearing little pieces of her music. So when PRIMA came out, I was curious to finally sit down and hear what she could do with a full project.
I honestly think this is a really fun introduction to Adéla as an artist. There’s a lot of personality throughout the album, and I like that she isn’t afraid to be playful, dramatic, vulnerable, and a little chaotic all at once. Songs like “Starving Artist,” “KGB,” “Fantasize,” and “Boys” really stood out to me and gave me those moments where I immediately wanted to run them back.
What I appreciate most is that PRIMA feels like Adéla figuring out exactly what kind of pop artist she wants to be. Not every song hits me the same way, and I can understand why some people might prefer the more experimental side of her earlier music, but there’s something exciting about hearing an artist develop in real time.
I went into this as someone who basically knew Adéla from TikTok, and I came out of it feeling like I actually understand her as an artist a little more. PRIMA isn’t perfect, but it’s catchy, ambitious, entertaining, and definitely makes me curious about what she does next.
