Stromae: KCRW Live from HQ

Belgian-Rwandan megastar Stromae commands his set Live From: KCRW HQ with an easy confidence - immediately launching a crowd full of KCRW superfriends into an immersive performance anchored by critically lauded cuts from his latest album “Multitude,” and viral hit “Alors On Danse.” Punctuating the session is a particularly vulnerable conversation with Morning Becomes Eclectic host Anthony Valadez. Within the chat you’ll find Stromae breaking down the importance of supportive family structures, gathering inspiration from his eclectic musical upbringing, and the possibilities of being creative from 9 to 5.
Pro tip: Keep those ears peeled for multiple (!) impromptu acapella renditions of the Technotronic classic, “Pump Up The Jam.”

La idea de que Stromae escuchaba salsa y cumbia en su casa hace latir de alegría mi corazón latino.

I love this kind of intimate … and the family storytelling, relaxed and funny Stromae.

Great session and loved the interview, but it's such a pity the performances were cut off.

I dont understand anything that Stromae says, but I love listening to his music. All I need are his melodies and beats.
