Currently, musical groups and performers are gaining more and more popularity, who harmoniously combine a variety of styles in their work. One of such talented singers is Stromae. The biography of some contemporary artists contains certain events that influenced the choice of a future profession. Others were born with the knowledge of what they should become. It is in the latter category that the hero of our story belongs.
Childhood and passion for music
A talented vocalist from Belgium, songwriter and composer - this is Stromae. The biography of a young man originates in Brussels. It was there that on March 12, 1985, Paul van Haver was born. This is the real name of a world famous performer.
His parents divorced very early. Dad, who was from Rwanda, did not pay due attention to his son, and he grew up under the direct care of his mother, a Belgian by birth. Craving for music appeared in Paul at a very young age. The loving mother did not resist the outburst of the soul of the child, and after some time the de Jette musical academy accepted the future popular artist Stromae into her penises. The biography of this stage of the boy’s life is saturated with the sounds of drums and various types of drum sets: he gave his preference to these particular musical instruments.
Debut
The debut took place as an artist with the pseudonym Opmaestro. This happened in 2005. However, he soon replaced him with Stromae. Playing with combinations of letters of the word "Maestro", the young man found the option that he liked the most. This pseudonym brought him unprecedented success.
In the same 2005, a group called “Suspicion” (“Suspicion”) appeared on stage for the first time, and Stromae was a member and founder of it. The biography of this hip-hop group is short and not particularly impressive. In a duet with rapper JEDI, they release only one track called "Faut kt'arretes le'Rap". After the release of the clip for this song, his partner leaves the group.
Solo career
Stromae begins a solo career, combining it with study. Constrained in cash, the singer is forced to look for a side job. The National Institute of Radioelectronics and Cinematography was the very “ticket to life” that Stromae gained. With the money earned in this institution, the artist releases his first debut album “Juste uncerveau, unflow, unfond et unmic ...” and immediately blows up all the charts. His sparkling style, a harmonious combination of hip-hop with polished house sound and other areas of electronic and dance music, instantly singled out the artist from the crowd of singers.
It was then that all world youth became nervous looking for any possible information about Stromae. The biography, personal life and environment of the singer were under the close attention of reporters and fans. However, the most grandiose breakthrough in the work of the performer to this day is 2009. It was then, working at the radio station, he recorded the single "Alors on dance". And the equipment for this was a home computer and ... that's it. The manager of the radio station was very impressed with this composition and allowed to launch it in rotation. The unprecedented response that this song found became a stepping stone to collaboration with Polygram Records. American rapper Kenye West recorded a remix of this song, and in a duet with Stromae. “Papaoutai” is another singer’s single, which was written in 2013 and has long been a leader on the Ultratop chart (Belgium). The public recognizes this bright young artist not only by the style of music: his “crown” feature is a bow tie on his neck.
