Paul Van Haver, better known as Stromae is a Belgian singer-songwriter. He has distinguished himself in both hip-hop ahnd electronic music. He first became famous with the song 'Alors on danse', which remained at number one for several weeks in numerous countries throughout Europe. He was born in Brussels of a Rwandan father and a Belgian mother. At the age of eleven, Paul Van Haver showed an interest in music and attended 'l'Académie Musicale de Jette', where he studied music history and learned to play the drums. In 2009 Paul worked as a young trainee at the musi cal radio station NRJ in Brussels. Vincent Verbelen, Music Manager, was impressed by the talent of Stromae's first single 'Alors on danse' and decided to air it for the first time on NRJ. The response from listeners was one of extreme enthusiasm and Stromae's career was launched. Sales quickly rose to number one in Belgium in just a matter of weeks.
