Stromae

Electronic
ElectronicElectropopHip hop

Stromae is a Electronic and Electropop act. Their catalogue also touches Hip hop and Synth-pop. Their sound grew out of Aya Nakamura, Angèle, Booba, Paul Kalkbrenner and Sho Madjozi. Those roots explain a lot about how Stromae arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Hoshi, Zaho de Sagazan, Calogero, Kendji Girac and David Guetta, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Lorde, Grace Jones, Diplo, The Chemical Brothers and Pusha T, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 48 connections around Stromae, reaching back through Aya Nakamura and forward to Lorde.
