I-Stromae (efundwa njenge-Stromai) igama elingelona iqiniso leciko lase-Belgian u-Paul Van Aver. Cishe wonke amaculo abhalwe ngesiFulentshi futhi aphakamisa izinkinga zenhlalo ezibucayi, kanye nolwazi lomuntu siqu.
UStromay naye uphawuleka ngokuqondisa izingoma zakhe.
Stromai: ebuntwaneni
Uhlobo lukaPaul kunzima kakhulu ukuluchaza: umculo womdanso, i-house, ne-hip-hop.
UPaul wazalelwa emndenini omkhulu endaweni yaseBrussels. Uyise, ongowokuzalwa eNingizimu Afrika, akazange ahlanganyele empilweni yendodana yakhe, ngakho unina wakhulisa izingane yedwa. Nokho, lokhu akuzange kumvimbe ekunikezeni indodana yakhe imfundo enhle. UStromai wafunda esikoleni esihlonishwayo okuhlalwa kuso, lapho akhangwa khona umculo kusukela esemncane. Kuzo zonke izinsimbi zomculo, izigubhu zazithandwa kakhulu. Edlala izigubhu, wazuza impumelelo.
Phakathi nezifundo zomculo, wayewukuphela kwengane eqenjini eyayiwuthanda ngempela.
Ingoma yokuqala yomculi osemusha (ngaleso sikhathi uPaul wayeneminyaka engu-18 ubudala) yayiyingoma ethi "Faut que t'arrête le Rap". Umrepha osafufusa nomngane wesikhashana ka-Paul ubambe iqhaza ekurekhodeni kwakhe. Nokho, abafana ngemva kwalokho bayeka ukusebenza nokuxhumana.
Ngesikhathi esifanayo, uStromai wafunda emnyangweni wobunjiniyela bomsindo eNational Institute of Cinematography kanye neRadio Electronics. Ngisebenza isikhathi esithile kuzo zonke izinhlobo zemisebenzi, okuhlanganisa ama-bistro namakhefi amancane, uPaul usebenzisa yonke imali ezifundweni zomculo. Njengoba kunzima ukuhlanganisa umsebenzi nokufunda, kwasala kuphela abafileyo ebusuku izifundo zomculo.
I-Stromae: ukuqala komsebenzi
I-albhamu encane yokuqala ethi “Juste un cerveau, un flow, un fond et un mic…” yakhululwa ngo-2006. Ngokushesha wabonwa abagxeki bomculo, futhi uPawulu waqala ukuthola izimemo zokuqala zokucula.
Ngokuhambisanayo, udala isiteshi ku-YouTube, lapho abelana ngolwazi lwakhe lokuqopha amathrekhi nababukeli bakhe. Phela, umculi osemusha wayenokuthile okumelwe akutshele: waqopha cishe zonke izingoma zakhe kukhompyutha evamile ngaphandle kokusebenzisa imishini eyengeziwe. Ngaphezu kwalokho, ukuqoshwa akwenzekanga ku-studio, kodwa ekhaya.
Ngaleso sikhathi, izifundo zaseyunivesithi zaphela, futhi umfana wathola umsebenzi esiteshini somsakazo esidumile NRJ. Lapha wayekwazi ukwethula amathrekhi akhe ngokuzimela. Ngenxa yomsebenzi onjalo, ngo-2009, ingoma ethi "Alors on danse" yaba ingoma yomhlaba wonke.
Kwakuzwakala yonke indawo nakuwo wonke amagumbi. Lena kwaba impumelelo yokuqala kaPawulu yangempela. Ngaphezu kwalokho, umculi wayengenaye umdidiyeli, futhi wayehlanganyela ekukhuthazeni umculo ngokwakhe. Ngo-2010, kuma-Music Industry Awards, i-"Alors on danse" yaqanjwa njengengoma engcono kakhulu yonyaka.
Eminyakeni emithathu kamuva, uStromai wakhulula i-albhamu yobude obugcwele ethi "Racine Carre", ehlanganisa iculo elithi "Papaoutai". Kushuthwe ividiyo yengoma, ewine umklomelo Wevidiyo Engcono Kakhulu ku-Festival international du film francophone de Namur.
Umsebenzi ukhuluma ngobaba ongenandaba okhona ngokomzimba empilweni yendodana yakhe, kodwa empeleni akenzi lutho. Mhlawumbe le ngoma nevidiyo i-autobiographical, ngoba umculi naye akazange axhumane noyise.
Enye i-"Tous les Memes" eyodwa ithinta isihloko sobudlelwane bomuntu siqu kanye nokungafuni komphakathi ukungena esikhundleni sabantu ababazungezile.
Amaqiniso avela empilweni yomuntu siqu kaPaul Van Aver:
- U-Stromai akabheki ukuthandwa kwakhe njengento ebalulekile, kunalokho, ngokuphambene nalokho, kumvimbela ekudaleni.
- Ushade noCoralie Barbier (i-stylist yakhe yesikhashana), kodwa umculi empeleni akaxoxi ngalesi sihloko ezingxoxweni.
- UPaul unomugqa wakhe wezingubo. Ekwakhiweni, ihlanganisa izinto ezivamile namaphrinti ase-Afrika agqamile.
- Kwezinye izingxoxo, wathi umsebenzi womakhi noma umbhaki ubaluleke kakhulu kunowomculi. Ngakho-ke, akajabule kakhulu ukuba nokuthandwa okunjalo.
Umculi uStromay namuhla
Maphakathi no-Okthoba 2021, umculi wephula ukuthula okwathatha iminyaka eyi-8. Wethula ingoma eyodwa ethi Santé. NgoJanuwari 11, 2022, uStromae wethula enye isiqephu. Sikhuluma ngengoma ethi L'enfer. Lo mbukiso wenziwa bukhoma kumabonakude. Khumbula ukuthi umculi uhlela ukukhipha i-LP entsha ngoMashi 2022.
