ADÉLA (née Adéla Jergová) returns with her first release of 2026, unveiling the bold new single and video “KGB” via Capitol Records. Co-produced by Blake Slatkin, Dylan Brady of 100 gecs, and The Dare, the track marks the first official preview of the Slovakian singer-songwriter’s forthcoming debut album.
Arriving alongside a visually striking video directed by Rachel Dunkel, “KGB” was filmed at the historic Los Angeles Theatre. Drawing from ADÉLA’s background as a professional ballet dancer, the visual blends movement and narrative as she confronts an antagonist within the theater’s grand setting. The video made its broadcast premiere across MTV Live, MTVU, and the Paramount Times Square Billboards, amplifying the scale of the release.
Lyrically, “KGB” underscores ADÉLA’s uncompromising vision, reflecting on her upbringing and her determination to break out of Slovakia to pursue a global career. The track captures a defining moment for the 22-year-old, setting the tone for a year driven by confidence, ambition, and a refusal to be limited.
The release follows her 2025 debut EP, The Provocateur, also via Capitol Records. The project introduced a cinematic, character-driven narrative rooted in ambition and resilience, exploring themes of betrayal, defiance, and exploitation through a heightened pop lens.
Upon its release, The Provocateur earned widespread acclaim from outlets including Vogue, Interview Magazine, The FADER, Harper’s Bazaar, NYLON, Rolling Stone, Cosmopolitan, i-D, and PAPER Magazine, the latter noting that her rise “comes at no surprise.” The momentum quickly translated into sold-out debut headline shows across London, New York, and Los Angeles.
Now, ADÉLA brings that energy to the stage as she joins Demi Lovato on a North American Tour, performing across major venues including Madison Square Garden, United Center, Chase Center, Kia Forum, and Climate Pledge Arena, among others.
With “KGB,” ADÉLA steps confidently into her next chapter—pairing cinematic visuals with sharp, forward-thinking pop production—while continuing to build momentum toward a debut album that positions her as one of the most compelling rising voices in global pop.
