    Stromae

    Stromae is a Belgian singer-songwriter fusing hip hop and electronic music while taking the European music scene by storm. Accompanied by up-beat gender-bending music, Stromae’s lyrics tackle and showcase the issues and controversies everyone experience, from unemployment to politics to stereotypes.  His second album continues this theme, with its single “Tous Les Memes” questioning the double standards of gender roles. The video for this song is a work of art on it’s own. I love the theatrical vibe and quirky choreography. I also included the video for his debut hit “Alors On Danse” because I still love that song.  Enjoy.

    Selah Sue is a musician and songwriter from Belgium.  I love how she blends her unique and passionate voice with a neat mixture of reggae, R&B, and soul.  Her self-titled debut album came out in 2011 and was an instant success.  Along with the great music vibe, her lyrics are incredible.  She really has a gift with words and you can tell she took her time to share a story.  Here is one of the singles from her album and an interview for you to get to know her better. Enjoy.
