Rihanna: Lionel had Hello before Adele was even born

Lionel and Rihanna need to STFU to be honest. Just because the name of both of their songs is the same, doesn't mean Adele took anything from him. He has already been quoted in billboard saying "he would loan it to her". Lionel, you didn't invent the word "hello" and no Lionel's "Hello" DID NOT break recordsz

Well he did but I don't see the big deal and I don't think Rihanna's making a big deal out of it either :laughga:

I know that, but the song didn't break any record like Adele's song.

It's modern day + technology that has assisted Adele and her icon-ism to succeed, i'm just confused as to why Rihanna would bring this up.

Well but that doesn't make it less of an achievement. No one has been able to sell as many digital copies as Hello did in its first week, even with the help of technology. 

Also many artists broke records back then too (The Beatles, Madonna, Mariah Carey, MJ) , Lionel Richie didn't.
