On Adams' new website, there is a section called "cardinal radio" which enables you to play thru a few albums... there is one "album" there called "you are the audience"... with a bunch of weird songs... that i've never heard before... is this new material or am i just not that big a fan? ? if so, wiki should be updated -Amo
Yes, Adams recently released 11 new albums on his website. Read about it [here] [1] I propose we add a section to the page covering this, as releasing 11 new albums at once is unheard of.
The associated acts in this article's infobox don't seem to follow the documentation at all. His bands make perfect sense and I don't object to them being included. But the rest?
At least this is my understanding of associated acts. Before removing these people or otherwise making changes to the associated acts field, I would like to reach a consensus. I know that associated acts can be contentious (see Ariana Grande's talk page) so I would like to preemptively ask that everyone remain civil.

The article summary states that "the release of [his] albums was indefinitely delayed after seven women came forward with sexual misconduct allegations against him. He later issued an apology, and the FBI cleared him of any potential criminal charges." However, as the section on the allegations describes it, the aforementioned FBI investigation was related to allegations that "Adams had committed a crime by engaging in sexually explicit communications with an underage fan"--there is no mention of the FBI clearing him of other sexual misconduct charges. Cf. LA Magazine: "nothing was found to prove a pattern of illegal behavior with underage girls, and the investigation was dropped in the fall of 2019. Adams’s lawyer was informed by the FBI in a phone call soon after." [1]
In my view the article summary invites readers to infer that the FBI's investigation was broader than it actually was, incorrectly suggesting that the FBI actively cleared Adams of charges relating to the unrelated allegations brought by Phoebe Bridgers, Mandy Moore and others. Ought/could the wording be changed to better reflect the reality of the situation? -- HeighHo talk 04:14, 22 October 2022 (UTC)

I removed the allegations related to the minor since it appears nothing came of it and the accuser changed their story. [2] I realize this is a bold change, but seems to fit with WP:BLPCRIME to error on the side of caution regarding serious allegations. Obviously some may disagree, but this article could use some summarizing. Nemov ( talk) 20:12, 31 May 2023 (UTC)
