Previously, pressing the play button for an album on Spotify auto-shuffled songs rather than playing them in the order an artist intended.
“As Adele mentioned, we are excited to share that we have begun rolling out a new Premium feature that has been long requested by both users and artists to make ‘play’ the default button on all albums,” a representative for Spotify told Variety in a statement.
Adele initially resisted putting her previous album 25 on streaming, only making it available on services nearly seven months after its official release.
“I believe music should be an event,” she told Time magazine in 2015 about her decision to hold off on releasing 25 for streaming.
