The Belgian already rolled over the charts at the beginning of 2010 when he made his first mark with "Alors on danse" and gave the German charts their first French-language #1 hit since 1987.
Since then, known for his musical openness - from electro to hip-hop, from folk to dance-pop - the "master of performance" (Die Zeit) has also been active as a designer and director and has long been considered the Belgian superstar export. Now he is back - after eight years - with his third album "Multitude"!
In the first few years, the exceptional artist went from strength to strength: the debut album "Cheese", his first statement between electro/dance, hip-hop and pop, climbed to the top of the charts in the French-speaking world and immediately brought him a massive fan base. This became even bigger in 2013 with the release of "racine carrée": album No. 2 went to No. 1 in many parts of Europe (including France, Belgium, Italy, Switzerland, Holland) and produced Top 10 singles such as "Papatouai". Showered with awards, he sold over five million albums worldwide and went on to perform at Coachella and Madison Square Garden. After the second gold album, however, it was quiet around the Belgian for eight years. In the meantime, he was active with his creative label mosaert for Billie Eilish (who celebrates him as a genius), Dua Lipa and Major Lazer, among others.
With the single "Santé", which he dedicated to the all too often overlooked, but nevertheless so incredibly important members of society, Stromae then reported back in October 2021 - and proved above all that he was also heading for the dance floor with the next album: the video & cover of "Santé" were, strictly speaking, instructions for dancing - grandiose danceable arrangements over a mix of cumbia & electro. The first three comeback concerts he announced in Brussels, Paris and Amsterdam were sold out after 15 minutes.Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version)
