Kai Trump names Adele’s “Rolling in the Deep” as her song of the year pick in new video

Kai Trump, the granddaughter of former U.S. President Donald Trump, revealed her song of the year pick in a new video, choosing Adele’s “Rolling in the Deep,” a mainstream pop track released in 2010.

In the video coverage reported Monday, Trump’s granddaughter presented the selection as an unexpected favorite, pointing to the song’s staying power rather than a newer release year. The announcement drew attention because many year-end music lists tend to emphasize songs from the current cycle, while “Rolling in the Deep” arrived more than a decade earlier.

Fox News reported that Kai Trump made the reveal on camera, presenting the track as her top song for the year and surprising viewers who expected a different kind of pick based on recent charting trends.

The selection centers on Adele’s performance and the song’s widely recognized hook, which helped “Rolling in the Deep” become one of the decade’s signature hits. The song’s ongoing cultural presence has also reflected its continued visibility in playlists, radio programming, and live performances.

The announcement arrives as artists and media outlets increasingly turn to end-of-year content and personal recommendations, with celebrity picks often used to generate conversation and draw audiences to catalogs that may not be considered “current” releases.

While the video does not, in the reported account, specify sales figures or streaming benchmarks tied to the selection, the public nature of the pick highlights how major pop catalog titles can remain prominent in cultural conversations years after their initial release.

For audiences, the choice functions as a straightforward recommendation: Adele’s “Rolling in the Deep” remains the focus of Kai Trump’s year-end spotlight, with the video serving as the primary record of her reasoning in the reported coverage.
