Adele will deliver her next album "at her own pace."
The 'Skyfall' singer, who is recording the follow-up to her chart-conquering album '21', has worked with OneRepublic's Ryan Tedder on new tracks and he claims she is not rushing the release.
He told MSN Music: "I haven't heard everything she's done, but I've heard everything we've done and I'm as proud of it, or prouder of anything we did on the first album, and she is sounding even better than ever.
"She will deliver the album on her own timetable, at her own pace, and the only person that will ever declare it finished will be her, when she decides it's finished."
The 25-year-old singer had to cancel tour dates in 2011 to undergo throat surgery and later took time out after giving birth to her son Angelo in 2012, with boyfriend Simon Konecki.
Asked about rumours she's nervous to perform live again, Ryan replied: "I personally wouldn't use the word fear, from conversations I've had with her. I don't think she has a fear of it.
"She's a mother, she has a young kid. When you sell 30 million albums, on one album, she can do whatever the hell she wants to do until forever."
Talking about reports of a possible world tour, Ryan also said: "If she decided to tour I'm sure it will be the most incredible tour ever and if she decides not to, it will have no bearing on how amazing the album itself is because she's one in a million, one in a hundred million, one in a billion."

Bradley Cooper is still madly in love with Suki Waterhouse.
The 'American Hustle' star recently sparked rumours that he had split from the British model after more than a year of dating, amid reports he had reconnected with his ex-girlfriend Renee Zellweger, but friends close to the couple insist they are still very happy together.
A source told E! News: "Bradley and Suki are very much a couple."
The duo haven't been seen together since attending a post Oscars bash in Los Angeles in early March, but the blonde beauty, 22, was spotted arriving at LAX airport over the weekend to spend a few days with the 39-year-old star.
It was previously revealed that Suki was "amazed" by Bradley's level of intelligence when she first met him in London in February 2013.
A source said: "She was ready to write him off as another hunky dumb actor, but Bradley really surprised her with his fluency in French and the intense pile of reading material he has beside his bed.
"He also always carries a backpack of very intellectual books with him to stave off boredom."
Another friend suggested the aspiring actress hopes to walk down the aisle with 'The Hangover' actor - who married actress Jennifer Esposito in 2006 before divorcing her in 2007 - in the near future.
The source explained: "There's a big age difference between them, but Suki adores Brad and after winning over his mum's heart she's hoping for a ring on her finger.
"He's so different from the men she usually meets in the modelling world. Suki loves that Brad's smart as well as sexy. He can't do anything wrong in her eyes."

The 41-year-old actress told E! News: "With a little boy, you have somebody who is going to love his mama. There's nothing like it."
The brunette beauty says her entire family are sports fanatics and love hosting American football parties for their friends.
She said: "(Ben) watches and I manage the chaos behind him so that he can watch. When I talk about managing chaos I'm talking about managing three little chaotic people, plus whatever friends bring their chaos over and we try to let the guys watch as much as we can."
She added: "My little dude does love a football. He can already sit and watch an entire game. He really gets it."
Asked about her daughters, Jennifer said: "They definitely care about being girly but they're definitely athletes. They're out there, they're ready to try out for sports, play hard and practice."

The 40-year-old actress, whose husband Dean McDermott checked into rehab for personal issues in January after he was accused of cheating on the former 'Beverly Hills 90210' star, began filming a six-episode Lifetime series in Los Angeles on Monday (31.03.14) and, according to the official press release, she "has made the courageous decision to allow the audience to witness the most difficult and unpredictable period in her life."
A source told gossip website RadarOnline.com: "There's no telling yet how the show will pan out and how much drama there will be since they literally just started filming this morning."
Another insider told PEOPLE.com: "She once said she would never split up her family, and she seems to mean it. However, after the latest cheating rumors, Tori must have put her foot down. She likely gave him an ultimatum."
The show is set to premiere in the US on April 22.
Tori and Dean have four children, Liam, six, Stella, five, Hattie, two, and 18-month-old Finn, but a source recently admitted the star isn't sure whether she can save her marriage.
The insider said: "Tori keeps waffling. Even if they reconcile, it's going to be hard to trust him," but added: "Tori doesn't want her kids to grow up without their dad in the house."
The couple are also said to be battling severe financial issues but Tori previously denied they were "broke."

The 'Noah' star, known for taking on mostly "tough guy" roles, first met his partner Elaine in 1979, while filming 'That Summer,' and credits her for helping him to relax after a tough day of filming.
Asked about how he gets out of character, the 57-year-old British actor told BANG Showbiz at the UK premiere of the new biblical epic at the Odeon in London's Leicester Square on Monday night (31.03.14): "Every job is a different job and I think I approach it in a different way. I don't take it home with me because the characters I play, I wouldn't be married very long if I did. What I like to do is laugh, if I'm playing a bit I like to laugh a lot and take it right down there."
The 'Snow White and the Huntsman' actor had no problem growing a beard for the movie, as he likes to sport a more dishevelled look when he has time off, but was relieved to finally shave it off afterwards.
He said: "When I'm not working I grow a beard anyway. The only false bits on it were the two prongs. I had that for about four months. I felt like an old rock."
Other stars on the red carpet for the screening included Emma Watson, Russell Crowe, Douglas Booth, Jennifer Connelly, director Darren Aronofsky and former 'Made in Chelsea' star Kimberley Garner.

Asked if her friendship with Simon is stronger now that he's a father, she added: "Absolutely, absolutely. It's the same as it's always been, but when you start being parents, as friends as well, I think it deepens your friendships."
Sinitta, 45, first revealed on Twitter on Sunday (30.03.14) that Simon and Lauren had asked her to be Eric's Godmother.
Posting a photograph of herself cradling the baby, she tweeted: "Wanted you to be the first (well after my mom and children) to hear about my next, serious new role... Drum roll...

Lindsay Lohan allegedly couldn't afford to pay her personal assistant.
The 27-year-old actress has parted ways with Matt Harrell because she is reportedly strapped for cash after wrapping up production on her self-titled reality show for Oprah Winfrey's OWN network.
A source told gossip website RadarOnline.com: "Matt had moved from Los Angeles to New York City to work for Lindsay..... He is extremely professional and very good at his job. Previously Matt had worked for Prince and to say working for Lindsay was difficult and chaotic would be an understatement."
Matt continued working for the 'Mean Girls' star without pay for a few weeks, as he searched for a new job.
The insider said: "Matt still agreed to accompany Lindsay to do press for the show. He even went with her for her appearance on 'Ellen.' He is hoping to get another job with another celebrity by helping Lindsay out."

Her sober coach Michael Cormier also decided it was time to move on and later implied he was unsure whether she had relapsed.

Pharrell Williams plans to have "fun" being a judge on 'The Voice' USA.
The 'Happy' hitmaker shared his excitement on Twitter after NBC confirmed that he is replacing CeeLo Green on the show's seventh season later this year.
The 40-year-old producer and singer retweeted a message from the show and wrote: "This is going to be so fun '@NBCTheVoice: Okay, we can OFFICIALLY say it! WE ARE SO #HAPPY to announce PHARRELL WILLIAMS = #NewVoiceCoach' "

Country star Blake Shelton and Maroon 5 frontman Adam Levine are also on the judging panel, while Christina Aguilera and Shakira take turns every season.
'Forget You' singer CeeLo, 39, announced last month that he wouldn't be returning to the show again, as he is developing his own TV show.
He said: "I'm not coming back guys. I'm going to continue my relationship with NBC. I have a television show development deal with them as well and hopefully some other talk show opportunities for later in the year.
"But yeah, I'm going to miss 'The Voice' too. So I'm not coming back guys."

The former couple met when they co-starred on the soap opera 'Santa Barbara' together in 1984.
Actor A Martinez, who also starred on the series, announced the news on his Facebook page, according to Soap Opera Digest.

Robin, who was also previously married to Sean Penn for 13 years until 2010, with whom she has daughter Dylan, 22, and son Hopper, 20, got engaged to her boyfriend of two years, Ben Foster, in November.

She added: "I know I'm almost 48, but I feel like I'm 30. I feel like I've digressed and now I'm going to live my 30s again."

Chris Evans insists he won't quit acting anytime soon.
The 'Caption America: The Winter Soldier' star, who recently stated he wouldn't be taking on any more acting roles aside from the Marvel commitments that he is contractually bound to, feels "silly" for suggesting he was no longer interest being in front of the camera and was eager to focus on directing.
The 32-year-old actor told 'Good Morning America' on Monday (31.03.14): "By no means am I planning on retiring. It's kind of a silly statement. But I certainly am going to try to focus a bit more on directing at this point."
He added: "I said that I directed last year. I really responded to it. I really enjoyed it. I'd love to focus a little bit more on that."
Chris attempted to clarify comments he made in an interview earlier this month, during which he said: "I've known for a while I wanted to direct. But [time] never really opens up. There's another movie to do, there's another acting job. It just got to a point where I was like, you know what - I have to do this.
"If I'm acting at all, it's going to be under Marvel contract, or I'm going to be directing. I can't see myself pursuing acting strictly outside of what I'm contractually obligated to do."

Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin want a quick divorce.
The former couple, who announced their separation last Tuesday (25.03.14) after 10 years of marriage, reportedly want to legally dissolve their relationship as quickly as possible, as they are worried things could turn ugly between them.
A source told gossip website TMZ.com that the 41-year-old actress and 37-year-old Coldplay rocker, who have daughter Apple, nine, and son Moses, seven, are trying to come to an amicable custodial and financial agreement, as they have no interest in airing their dirty laundry in a trial.
One insider claimed the couple have both done things during their marriage that they don't want to be exposed in leaked legal documents and are eager to avoid any more cheating rumours.
The source added that they are determined to keep their split amicable so a judge will sign off on their divorce sooner rather than later.
But it seems the 'Iron Man 3' actress is unlikely to start dating again anytime soon, as she admitted during an interview in 2012 that she was glad her single days were behind her and had found her "sexuality" with Chris.
Speaking on celebrity interview series 'The Conversation with Amanda De Cadenet,' she said: "I personally think that only in a committed relationship where you trust the other person with everything and there's real intimacy there, that's where you find your sexuality. You don't find it on a one-night stand.
"It has to be a longer term situation where you're completely safe and that's where it starts to reveal itself."
She also joked that she had "s****ed everyone" when she was younger.
