This might finally be the year that Adele breaks her silence since her 2011 juggernaut 21, as her followup album may be here by fall.
Billboard reported in its fall music preview that the singer's "label is planning on a November release," likely just ahead of the busy holiday shopping season.

According to the report, Adele has been working with the likes of powerhouse producers Danger Mouse and Max Martin, the latter of whom has produced and co-written a number of Katy Perry and Taylor Swift's No. 1 singles, as well as The Weeknd's recent chart-topper "Can't Feel My Face."
As we mentioned last month, OneRepublic's Ryan Tedder has also been involved with the project, having previously co-written 21 hits "Rumour Has It" and "Turning Tables," the former of which he also produced.
Adele had teased an LP titled 25 last May due in 2014, but her label, XL Recordings, later revealed there were no plans to release an album any time before the year's end.
A new record from the British superstar would certainly be a boost in the midst of sluggish album sales. Drake's If You're Reading This It's Too Late earlier this month became just the first full-length released in 2015 to surpass 1 million units sold.
