Early life

[edit]

Adam Noah Levine was born on March 18, 1979, inLos Angeles[7]to Fredric Levine, the founder of retail chain M. Fredric, and Patsy (née Noah) Levine, an admissions counselor.[6][8]They divorced when he was seven and Levine underwent therapy.[9]Growing up, he spent weekdays with his mother and weekends with his father.[10]He has a younger brother.[11]Levine's father and maternal grandfather wereJewish,while his maternal grandmother was aProtestant.[12]Levine considers himself Jewish;[13]however, according toThe Jewish Chronicle,he isspiritual but not religious.He chose not to have aBar Mitzvahas a child because of the custom of receivingBar Mitzvah gifts,explaining: "I felt as though a lot of kids were trying to cash in... I just don't think it's the most respectful way to deal with God and beliefs and years and years and years of cultural heritage."[10]Levine is a nephew of journalist and authorTimothy Noah,and television producer and writerPeter Noah.[14][15]

Levine describes his family as "very musical"[16]and credits his mother with "start[ing] me out on the path."[17]He also attributes his mother's idols –Simon & Garfunkel,Fleetwood Mac,andThe Beatles– to shaping his musical style, calling them "a huge part of my upbringing".[10]Levine attendedBrentwood School,where he metJesse CarmichaelandMickey Madden,his future bandmates.[18]He carried his musical interests to high school, where he states he was "a little rebellious. I didn't want to do the things they were teaching me... [music] consumed my every thought."[16]

Kara's Flowers

[edit]

In February 1994, Levine, along with friendsJesse Carmichael,Mickey Madden,and Ryan Dusick formed garage band Kara's Flowers.[19][20]In 1995, the group played their first gig at theWhisky a Go Go,a nightclub inWest Hollywood, California,with Levine performing vocals and guitar.[21]The band was discovered while they were performing inMalibuby independent producer Tommy Allen, who along with his partnerJohn DeNicola,had them record an 11-track album.[21]Owing to a string of industry showcases in Los Angeles, they were signed on toReprise Recordsthrough producerRob Cavallo.[22]

In August 1997, the band released their first album, titledThe Fourth World[23]and also appeared on an episode of the drama seriesBeverly Hills, 90210.[6]Despite high expectations,[21]it had little success, selling about 5,000 copies.[24]Reprise decided to drop the band after Cavallo's exit from the label.[21][25]Disappointed with the results of their album, the band broke up.[26][27]Later, Levine would say of the experience: "Kara's Flowers was just floating up the wall beneath the sticks. Make a record quickly, put it out. No touring base, no nothing. Just try to make it happen right out of the gate and it just doesn't work".[28]

Maroon 5

[edit]

After the break up of Kara's Flowers, Levine, along with Carmichael, left Los Angeles to pursue higher studies atFive Towns Collegein New York.[21][29]On MTV News, in 2002, he said: "That's when I started waking up to the whole hip-hop, R&B thing. We had friends named Chaos and Shit. It wasnotBrentwood High ".[30]They dropped out after a semester,[31]and reunited with Madden and Dusick to form a band once more.[31]They experimented with several styles, includingcountryandfolk,before deciding groove-based music would become their genre.[18]Levine explained the need for a makeover for the band: "We were just so sick of being a typical rock 'n' roll band... I felt like I needed to look elsewhere for vocal inspiration."[21]The band put together a demo that was rejected by several labels, before it caught the attention ofOctone RecordsexecutivesJames Diener,Ben Berkman, and David Boxenbaum.[27]Following Berkman's advice, the band added a fifth member,James Valentine,and was renamed Maroon 5. In an interview withHitQuarters,Berkman explained that Levine "seemed to be a very shy, shoe-gazing type... a fifth member could play the guitar to free up the singer [Levine], so he could be the star I perceived him to be".[24]

Around this time, Levine had been working as a writer's assistant on theCBStelevision showJudging Amy;the program's producerBarbara Hallwas his family friend.[6]While on the show, he would spend time writing songs about his ex-girlfriend. These songs were put into Maroon 5's debut albumSongs About Jane,which was released in June 2002. The album slowly gained airplay, and eventually became asleeper hit,selling an estimated 10 million copies[32]and becoming the tenth best-selling album of 2004, two years after its release.[33]In 2005, Maroon 5 won their firstGrammy Award,forBest New Artist.[34]The next year, they won theGrammy Award for Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocalsfor the secondSongs About Janesingle "This Love".[35]

Levine performing with Maroon 5 in 2007

By 2006, the band began recording again, and in May 2007, Maroon 5's second albumIt Won't Be Soon Before Longwas released. Levine described the album as "a vast improvement", explaining: "I think this record is a little more self-confident and powerful lyrically".[36]To support the album, the band performed on a ten-date club tour which visited small venues in Europe and the United States from April to June 2007.[37][38]The album and its lead, third and penultimate singles ( "Makes Me Wonder","Won't Go Home Without You"and"If I Never See Your Face Again",respectively) each received Grammy nominations, although only" Makes Me Wonder "secured a win.[39][40]

After winding down from aworld tourin support ofIt Won't Be Soon Before Long,the band began recording in Switzerland in 2009, in collaboration with record producer and songwriterRobert John "Mutt" Lange.Levine said Lange "worked me harder than anyone ever has".[41]In 2010, Maroon 5 released their third studio album,Hands All Over.The album did not initially meet expectations. In an interview withLos Angeles Times,Levine explained that the album suffered from being "all these disparate ideas and songs that didn't make any sense together".[42]After the moderate success of the album's first three singles, the band released "Moves like Jagger"(featuringChristina Aguilera) which Levine classified as "one of those songs that was definitely a risk; it's a bold statement".[43]The single became a worldwide success; it was the ninth-best-selling digital single of 2011 with sales of 8.5 million copies and, as of 2012,theeighth-best-selling digital single of all time.Levine later credited the song with "totally reviving the band".[42]

Since "Moves Like Jagger" was the first time Maroon 5 had collaborated with an outside writer, the band decided to attempt it again on their next album, entitledOverexposed.[44]Its title is supposedly an allusion to Levine's public ubiquity. In an interview withRolling Stone,he opined that is their most dance-driven album ever, commenting: "It's very much an old-fashioned disco tune. I have a love/hate relationship with it – but mostly I love it".[45]The album and its lead single "Payphone"gave Maroon 5 their secondGrammy Award for Best Pop Vocal AlbumandBest Pop Duo/Group Performancenominations.[40]In support ofOverexposed,the band conducted theOverexposed Tourfrom 2012 to 2013 (with the European leg extending to 2014 due to scheduling conflicts),[46]and also headlined the2013 Honda Civic Tour,which includedThe Voicecontestant Tony Lucca.[47]

In 2014, Maroon 5 continued their collaboration withRyan Tedder,Max Martinand others to release their fifth studio albumV(pronounced: "five" ). Levine acknowledged that they followed the same song-writing process that they tried withOverexposed,saying: "We developed a really nice system on the last record — we found songs we were passionate about, developed them and put our stamp on them... this time we kept it going but looked for different types of songs."[48]Five singles were released from it. In support of the album, the band undertook theMaroon V Tour,which kicked off with a show inDallasin February 2015.[49]

In 2007, Levine had stated that he believed Maroon 5 was reaching its peak and might make one more album before disbanding.[50]He was quoted explaining: "Eventually I want to focus on being a completely different person because I don't know if I want to do this into my 40s and 50s and beyond". But in 2010, he dispelled any rumors of the band breaking up, saying: "I love what I do and think that, yes, it might be tiring and complicated at times [but] we don't have any plans on disbanding any time soon".[51]He has also turned down the idea of having a solo career, stating that "there will never be a solo record. I would sooner have another band".[52]On February 10, 2017, Levine received a star on theHollywood Walk of Famefor his contributions to the recording industry.[53]

Artistry

[edit]

Levine's interest in music started at around ten years of age, when he first started playing the guitar. He found music as an outlet for his feelings, stating: "I picked up a guitar and that was it. I fell so madly in love with it, it's all I did".[16]He performed his first professional gig atThe Troubadourwhen he was twelve, but he was so nervous that he played with his back to the audience.[6][116]Throughout his childhood, he had a wide range of musical influences, includingThe Beatles,Fleetwood Mac,The Who,Pearl Jam,Soundgarden,Alice in Chains,andNirvana,and, in high school,Bob Marley,Bill Withers,Al Green,Stevie Wonder,Marvin Gaye,[117]Phish[118]andMichael Jackson.[119]He has also incorporated elements ofThe PoliceandPrinceinto his music.[120]In an interview withBillboard,he explained the diversity of his influences: "I love every single kind of music... even the most saccharine, sugary pop song can be the greatest thing ever. But so can a 25-minute crazy avant-garde fusion gnarlyHerbie Hancockjam from the '70s ".[121]

Levine remembers that listening to "Are You That Somebody?"byAaliyahconvinced him to pursue a more soulful sound than that of the band he was performing with at the time, Kara's Flowers.[23]His move to New York introduced him to a new music scene that involvedhip-hop,R&B,gospelandsoul music.[30]He took to changing his musical style, extensively emulating Stevie Wonder.[120]Subsequently,Songs About Janewas released, deemed "bluesy funk"[122]and similar to the sound of Englishpop rockbandBusted.[123]Critics also drew comparisons between Levine andJamiroquaisingerJay Kay.[124]

While earlier work was deemed "vaguely funky white-soul"[124]and "rock", recent ones have been judged to have a more reggae, anthemic pop sound,[125]evoking comparisons toColdplay.[126]Levine refuses to fit his music into a genre, saying: "There's so much variety in music, it's silly to belong to a specific club and try to sound a certain way".[120]He considers himself an orthodox lyricist sticking to conventional themes, acknowledging: "Romance, love, the lack thereof are still very big themes. I haven't figured out a way to use everything yet. As a songwriter, I'm still limited to that one thing."[23]He also claims he does not like mincing words, stating in aRolling Stoneinterview: "I was so sick of typical lyrics like 'Ooh, baby' and 'I love you' and all this vague shit. I thought the more explicit I got without being totally explicit was a nice approach".[30]

Levine is atenor,with a 4 octave vocal range[127][128]and has been noted for hisfalsettos.[129]Salonwrote: "When he's crooning come-ons, his voice lends the music a satisfying lewdness, a sense of sticky physicality that gives his snaky hooks a pheromonal urgency."[130]In a review ofIt Won't Be Soon Before Long,Entertainment Weeklydescribed his vocals as "smug, R&B-slick deadpan... there's a twisted logic to his dispassionate delivery".[131]In another review,Allmusicwrote "he knows that he's a pop guy, somewhat in the tradition ofHall & Oates,but he isn't trying to be retro, he's... making records that are melodic, stylish, and soulful ".[132]In a review of the 2013 Honda Civic Tour,The Boston Globealso commented positively on his on-stage presence, which "exude[s] a sense of up-for-anything playfulness... combined with a rock solid work ethic and a clear love for their audiences and performing".[133]

Levine's popularity outside of his musical work has seen him tagged as a "stand-alone star,"[134]which critics say have pushed other members of Maroon 5 to the backseat, even in their music.[135]Their guitarist Valentine noted that his vocals were a central aspect around which their music revolved.[136]Conversely, others opine that Levine's fame has been a boost to the band, withPaperwriting: "Maroon 5 has managed to ebb and flow with the times... thanks in no small part to their frontman's uncanny ability to be extremely entertaining".[137]Delta Skydescribed him as "a natural, if slightly neurotic, leading man".[138]He claims that the image was consciously cultivated, explaining: "We talked about it a long time ago and decided I would step out, for us, not for me or my own ego... We wanted there to be a frontman."[52]

The guard claimed that when she complained about the cannabis smoke coming from one of the studios, she was told that "it's Adam Levine—if he wants to come to the lobby and do a line of cocaine on the floor, it's OK". In an official statement toThe Hollywood Reporter,UMPG (Universal Music Publishing group) described the allegations as "absurd".[152][153]
