Stromae started as a rapper but his new album features a mix of musical styles — house, dance, jazz, Congolese rumba, and classic French songs, among others. The song "Ave Cesaria", for instance, is a tribute to Cape Verdean singer Cesaria Evora.
Other tracks, like "Merci", are more on the synth-pop side.
Stromae plays with identity and uses his androgynous looks in the amazing video for "Tous les Mêmes."
He also shows off some major dancing skills in the video.
He is often compared to legendary singer Jacques Brel because of his Belgian accent, the way he rolls his "r", and his unbelievable charisma and presence on stage.
For his "Formidable" video, Stromae pretended to be drunk on one of Brussels busiest squares while filmed by hidden cameras.
