Belgians Angèle and Stromae were the most awarded artists at the 38th Victoires de la Musique ceremony. With them, the Caennais Orelsan, who is now ahead of Johnny Hallyday and Alain Souchon with 12 trophies.

There was like a scent of Belgium on the evening of Friday February 10, on the stage of the Victoires de la Musique. Brussels residents Angèle and Stromae won almost half of the prizes between them. Stromae received the Victory for “best album”, in addition to being crowned “best male artist”. Angèle was crowned “female artist” and “most streamed album by an artist”.

Passing of the torch

The poignant moment of this 38th ceremony was the Victory of Honor awarded to Serge Lama, 80, who recently announced that he was ending his career. One generation leaves, another moves in. With three victories last night, 12 since the start of his career, Orelsan has now overtaken Johnny Hallyday and Alain Souchon. In the end, there weren’t really any surprises in the prize list, but a lot of emotion during this unmissable event for French song.
