A comeback that his fans have been waiting for for almost 9 years. After having caused a sensation during her interview on the set of Anne-Claire Coudray, where the artist revealed her title ” hell “, it is today with his new clip that Stromae is talking about him.

A title with strong words, shot at the Parc du Cinquantenaire in Brussels, and which required months of preparation and more than a hundred dancers and extras. With this title, Stromae takes a stand and once again arrives where you least expect it. In this regard, he said, The desire was to talk about a subject that everyone knows but no one really wants to talk about“. The idea for the title would have come to him after watching the show It starts todaypresented by Faustine Bollaert, whose subject was sex workers and their children.
