On July 7, 2020, Adal, along with his then record label Bencu Recordz, released his debut EP Sanningen, which also became his last project before his death. Sanningen contains five tracks and features Einár on the second track, "Magisk."[6]
In 2020, Adal appeared in episode five of the SVT series Streams.[7]
In August 2021, Adal's last single before his death, "Bunda," was released. The song was released with backing from the record company MadeNiggaMusic, which included artists like Yasin and JB at the time.[8]

When the police arrived, they found a seriously injured man who had been shot several times in the head. The man, identified as Adal, was taken to the hospital, but his life could not be saved, and he was pronounced dead at 8:25 p.m.[9][5][10][11][12]
