ON SALE <\/strong>\r\n\r\nPERSONA:\u00a0The latin word used to describe the variety of masks that were worn on stage back then. Today, the word mainly evokes the idea of public image and the multi-facetted, and at times paradoxical, personalities of each and every one.\u00a0Selah Sue\u2019s choice of title for her third album is nothing random but rather carefully thought out. Sifting through all the personalities that she\u2019s adopted over the course of her life (the lover, the hedonist, the anxious soul...), the Belgian singer is on a quest to better understand herself through songs that are both sincere and enlightening, thereby making a triumphant return after a break of a few years. And to do so, she has enrolled the help of a prestigious cast including the ever-sharp rapper Damso.\r\n\r\nIf Selah Sue felt the need to take a time out, unwind and get fresh ideas, it has much to do with how her career got off to a flying start, with the overwhelming whirlwind of emotions that comes with it: a first self-titled album in 2011 (certified double-platinum in France), never-ending tours and festivals, headline collaborations (with the likes of Diplo, Childish Gambino, Cee Lo Green, J. Cole...), all leading to sales of over a million albums. Despite the popular and critical acclaim, including many awards and distinctions, the young woman would often share how she was battling with depression and be vocal about it, even supporting campaigns that shed light on the issue.\r\n\r\nIt seems that taking a step back did her the world of good. Selah Sue returned both appeased and stimulated by the road she had just travelled, ready to share all the experiences she had made along the way since the release of her sophomore album Reason in 2015. In that space of time, alongside her quest to understand herself better, the endearing artist, now in her thirties, became a mother to two children. These intimate disruptions fed her creativity, in the same way that all of the recent events we have all experienced have done, from climate change to the global pandemic.\r\n\r\nIt was precisely during the first lockdown, in May 2020, that Selah Sue put out the very acoustic Bedroom EP, inspired by maternity. A smooth and steady return to business, that also allowed her to put the finishing touches to what would later become Persona, a collection of more expansive songs, influenced by \u201890s hip- hop and soul, swinging jazzy bass lines, instant pop and pioneering R\u2019n\u2019B beats.\r\n\r\nThis third album was written, for the most part, during the pandemic. Selah Sue wanted her lyrics to reflect the introspective path that she had undertaken three years ago during a therapy involving dialogue, in which the different parts of a person\u2019s psyche are addressed separately. \u201cAs I see it, it\u2019s clear that we all have multifacetted personalities\u201d, says Selah Sue. - . \u201cIn my case, the self-critical part is quite dominant - I always feel like I\u2019m not up to the task. I see my \u2018personas\u2019 as if they were all riding as passengers on the same bus. As the driver, I\u2019d love to have full control over the wheel but all these \u2018selves\u2019 have their own ideas about how the bus should be driven and push me aside to grab the wheel. Freedom of choice is lost. The goal is to become \u201cthe manager of these selves\u2019, also known as the \u2018aware ego\u2019, who listens to each and one of them. Accept and love them. But not letting them take over full control.\u201d\r\n\r\nAs she started working on new songs in her home-studio back in 2019, alongside producer Matt Parad and keyboardist Joachim Saerens (also father of her children), she noticed that she was writing from contradictory perspectives. It was by getting to grips and running with this concept, that the artist penned this unique album, shedding light on the many fragments that, pieced together, make her the person she is.\r\n\r\nWhen lockdown struck, Matt Parad had to fly back home to California, with the interrupted recording finally completed thanks to subsequent back-and-forth between Brussels and Los Angeles. \u201cAt home, I could focus better, and put more of myself in every song because I felt perfectly comfortable and could quietly try things out\u201d, she explains.\r\nWith the help of modern technology, a host of collaborators was invited to chip in remotely, not least legendary jazz bass player Marcus Miller, MonoNeon (Prince\u2019s last bass player), the musician Kadhja Bonet, French rap\u2019s rising star Benjamin Epps, duo 305 Horns, or even Andris Mattson from Moonchild. The impressive Belgian-rap king Damso also took part with a remarkable cameo on I Wanted You to Know, a captivating bilingual duo. All supported by a solid producing team\u00a0(Rodaidh McDonald, Candenza, Kwes, Bastien Doremus) to steer the motley crew.\r\n\r\nNow aged 32, Selah Sue has become a hallmark of the impressively lively current Belgian scene (alongside Stromae, Ange\u0300le, Lous and The Yakuza). Persona marks a fresh artistic start, while remaining true to the artist\u2019s essence: Selah Sue\u2019s tremendously characteristic voice, bathed in warm soul with intermittent bluesy cracks. A solar tone of voice, that hosts all of the singer\u2019s personalities, starting with her optimism, her explosive energy and her feverish rushes capable of lifting a whole crowd; but also her maturity, her shyness, her intimate misgivings or her mesmerising charm. It\u2019s by following Socrate\u2019s famous maxim \u201cKnow thyself\u201d, that Selah Sue could finally find her balance and keep going forward in the world, walking towards the light, sure-footed and more serene than ever.\r\n

C\u2019est une des questions que se pose ML dans son deuxi\u00e8me EP. Il donne suite au premier, \u201cChang\u00e9\u201d (co-produit par Sage, dont un featuring avec Flore Benguigui), qui illustrait en 2022 le nouveau souffle de ML. Instinctif et sans calcul, ce nouvel EP parle d\u2019\u00e9lan vital, d\u2019urgence de vivre \u201cici et maintenant\u201d, plut\u00f4t que de chercher \u00e9perdument un ailleurs qui n\u2019existe pas. ML elle est d\u00e9sormais en mouvement.\r\n\r\n\u201cML\u201d, deux lettres, deux initiales pour Maria-Laetitia Mattern, lead singer de Sonnfjord, groupe de pop-rock qu\u2019elle a notamment mont\u00e9 avec son fr\u00e8re Aurelio Mattern dans leur ville natale, Bruxelles. Elle commence donc \u00e0 \u00e9crire en fran\u00e7ais, comme une volont\u00e9 de dire enfin l\u2019intimit\u00e9 des doutes et des tourments dans sa langue maternelle.\r\n\r\nCri du c\u0153ur brut et sensible, ce deuxi\u00e8me EP \u00e9voque son besoin d\u2019action. Alors ML cherche, se cherche, m\u00ealant la pop \u00e0 ses inspirations indie\/rock. Imaginant ses compositions \u00e0 la guitare ou au piano, elle \u00e9crit ses textes dans les transports ou au caf\u00e9, inspir\u00e9e par l\u2019effervescence de la ville. Chez elle r\u00e9sonnent Leonard Cohen, Tame Impala, Julia Jacklin, King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard, Billie Eilish ou encore Lana Del Rey.\r\n\r\nA travers le titre \u00ab Ressaisis-toi \u00bb, ML appelle \u00e0 profiter de la vie tant elle passe vite : J\u2019ai \u00e9crit \u00ab Ressaisis-toi \u00bb dans une pulsion de vie, juste apr\u00e8s la mort de ma grand-m\u00e8re. Je fais r\u00e9f\u00e9rence \u00e0 mon grand-p\u00e8re, qui perdait la femme de sa vie, avec laquelle il avait pass\u00e9 65 ans. Le \u201cRessaisis-toi\u201d, c\u2019est \u00e0 moi-m\u00eame que je l\u2019adresse.\r\n\r\nDans \u00ab Cr\u00e8ve d\u2019ennui \u00bb, elle rel\u00e8ve le manque amoureux : Sous les traits d\u2019une d\u00e9claration d\u2019amour, cette chanson \u00e9voque pour moi l\u2019ennui, le manque, ou de mani\u00e8re plus abstraite, une version de moi-m\u00eame que j\u2019aurais perdue. \u00ab Ailleurs n\u2019existe pas \u00bb, est un constat doux mais amer qu\u2019on ne voyage que dans la t\u00eate : c\u2019est une id\u00e9e paradoxale, on a beau r\u00eaver d\u2019ailleurs, nos pens\u00e9es nous poursuivent, on ne peut pas se fuir soi- m\u00eame. A l\u2019inverse, la pens\u00e9e \u00e0 elle seule nous permet de voyager.\r\n\r\nIssus du deuxi\u00e8me EP d\u2019ML, ces trois singles sont mis en image par le r\u00e9alisateur Th\u00e9o Le Sourd\r\n(Lewis Ofman, King Princess).\r\n\r\n[embed]https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=1axwFmtq0KQ[\/embed]","artiste_1_deezer":"","artiste_1_facebook":"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/MLmusiqueofficielle","artiste_1_horaire":"20:00:00","artiste_1_instagram":"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/ml.musique\/","artiste_1_nom":"ML ","artiste_1_photo":"","artiste_1_site_web":"","artiste_1_spotify":"","artiste_1_tiktok":"","artiste_1_youtube":"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCf53bL3DkjqWYdMfFBgzm7g","artiste_2_contenu":"","artiste_2_deezer":"","artiste_2_facebook":"","artiste_2_horaire":"","artiste_2_instagram":"","artiste_2_nom":"","artiste_2_photo":"","artiste_2_site_web":"","artiste_2_spotify":"","artiste_2_tiktok":"","artiste_2_youtube":"","artiste_3_contenu":"","artiste_3_deezer":"","artiste_3_facebook":"","artiste_3_horaire":"","artiste_3_instagram":"","artiste_3_nom":"","artiste_3_photo":"","artiste_3_site_web":"","artiste_3_spotify":"","artiste_3_tiktok":"","artiste_3_youtube":"","artiste_4_contenu":"","artiste_4_deezer":"","artiste_4_facebook":"","artiste_4_horaire":"","artiste_4_instagram":"","artiste_4_nom":"","artiste_4_photo":"","artiste_4_site_web":"","artiste_4_spotify":"","artiste_4_tiktok":"","artiste_4_youtube":"","artiste_5_contenu":"","artiste_5_deezer":"","artiste_5_facebook":"","artiste_5_horaire":"","artiste_5_instagram":"","artiste_5_nom":"","artiste_5_photo":"","artiste_5_site_web":"","artiste_5_spotify":"","artiste_5_tiktok":"","artiste_5_youtube":"","artiste_6_contenu":"","artiste_6_deezer":"","artiste_6_facebook":"","artiste_6_horaire":"","artiste_6_instagram":"","artiste_6_nom":"","artiste_6_photo":"","artiste_6_site_web":"","artiste_6_spotify":"","artiste_6_tiktok":"","artiste_6_youtube":"","artiste_7_contenu":"","artiste_7_deezer":"","artiste_7_facebook":"","artiste_7_horaire":"","artiste_7_instagram":"","artiste_7_nom":"","artiste_7_photo":"","artiste_7_site_web":"","artiste_7_spotify":"","artiste_7_tiktok":"","artiste_7_youtube":"","artiste_8_contenu":"","artiste_8_deezer":"","artiste_8_facebook":"","artiste_8_horaire":"","artiste_8_instagram":"","artiste_8_nom":"","artiste_8_photo":"","artiste_8_site_web":"","artiste_8_spotify":"","artiste_8_tiktok":"","artiste_8_youtube":"","artiste_9_contenu":"","artiste_9_deezer":"","artiste_9_facebook":"","artiste_9_horaire":"","artiste_9_instagram":"","artiste_9_nom":"","artiste_9_photo":"","artiste_9_site_web":"","artiste_9_spotify":"","artiste_9_tiktok":"","artiste_9_youtube":"","cmplz_hide_cookiebanner":"","contenu":"","contenu_concert":" \r\n

A solar tone of voice, that hosts all of the singer\u2019s personalities, starting with her optimism, her explosive energy and her feverish rushes capable of lifting a whole crowd; but also her maturity, her shyness, her intimate misgivings or her mesmerising charm. It\u2019s by following Socrate\u2019s famous maxim \u201cKnow thyself\u201d, that Selah Sue could finally find her balance and keep going forward in the world, walking towards the light, sure-footed and more serene than ever.\r\n

C\u2019est une des questions que se pose ML dans son deuxi\u00e8me EP. Il donne suite au premier, \u201cChang\u00e9\u201d (co-produit par Sage, dont un featuring avec Flore Benguigui), qui illustrait en 2022 le nouveau souffle de ML. Instinctif et sans calcul, ce nouvel EP parle d\u2019\u00e9lan vital, d\u2019urgence de vivre \u201cici et maintenant\u201d, plut\u00f4t que de chercher \u00e9perdument un ailleurs qui n\u2019existe pas. ML elle est d\u00e9sormais en mouvement.\r\n\r\n\u201cML\u201d, deux lettres, deux initiales pour Maria-Laetitia Mattern, lead singer de Sonnfjord, groupe de pop-rock qu\u2019elle a notamment mont\u00e9 avec son fr\u00e8re Aurelio Mattern dans leur ville natale, Bruxelles. Elle commence donc \u00e0 \u00e9crire en fran\u00e7ais, comme une volont\u00e9 de dire enfin l\u2019intimit\u00e9 des doutes et des tourments dans sa langue maternelle.\r\n\r\nCri du c\u0153ur brut et sensible, ce deuxi\u00e8me EP \u00e9voque son besoin d\u2019action. Alors ML cherche, se cherche, m\u00ealant la pop \u00e0 ses inspirations indie\/rock. Imaginant ses compositions \u00e0 la guitare ou au piano, elle \u00e9crit ses textes dans les transports ou au caf\u00e9, inspir\u00e9e par l\u2019effervescence de la ville. Chez elle r\u00e9sonnent Leonard Cohen, Tame Impala, Julia Jacklin, King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard, Billie Eilish ou encore Lana Del Rey.\r\n\r\nA travers le titre \u00ab Ressaisis-toi \u00bb, ML appelle \u00e0 profiter de la vie tant elle passe vite : J\u2019ai \u00e9crit \u00ab Ressaisis-toi \u00bb dans une pulsion de vie, juste apr\u00e8s la mort de ma grand-m\u00e8re. Je fais r\u00e9f\u00e9rence \u00e0 mon grand-p\u00e8re, qui perdait la femme de sa vie, avec laquelle il avait pass\u00e9 65 ans. Le \u201cRessaisis-toi\u201d, c\u2019est \u00e0 moi-m\u00eame que je l\u2019adresse.\r\n\r\nDans \u00ab Cr\u00e8ve d\u2019ennui \u00bb, elle rel\u00e8ve le manque amoureux : Sous les traits d\u2019une d\u00e9claration d\u2019amour, cette chanson \u00e9voque pour moi l\u2019ennui, le manque, ou de mani\u00e8re plus abstraite, une version de moi-m\u00eame que j\u2019aurais perdue. \u00ab Ailleurs n\u2019existe pas \u00bb, est un constat doux mais amer qu\u2019on ne voyage que dans la t\u00eate : c\u2019est une id\u00e9e paradoxale, on a beau r\u00eaver d\u2019ailleurs, nos pens\u00e9es nous poursuivent, on ne peut pas se fuir soi- m\u00eame. A l\u2019inverse, la pens\u00e9e \u00e0 elle seule nous permet de voyager.\r\n\r\nIssus du deuxi\u00e8me EP d\u2019ML, ces trois singles sont mis en image par le r\u00e9alisateur Th\u00e9o Le Sourd\r\n(Lewis Ofman, King Princess).\r\n\r\n[embed]https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=1axwFmtq0KQ[\/embed]","photo":"","instagram":"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/ml.musique\/","facebook":"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/MLmusiqueofficielle","tiktok":"","youtube":"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCf53bL3DkjqWYdMfFBgzm7g","spotify":"","deezer":"","site_web":""},{"nom":"","horaire":"","contenu":"","photo":"","instagram":"","facebook":"","tiktok":"","youtube":"","spotify":"","deezer":"","site_web":""}],"lien_ticket_wait":""},"yoast_head":"\nSelah Sue - Reflektor Club - Li\u00e8ge<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/reflektor.be\/concert\/selah-sue\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"[:fr]Selah Sue + ML *SOLD OUT*[:nl]Selah Sue[:en]Selah Sue[:] - Reflektor Club - Li\u00e8ge\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"[:fr]PERSONA:\u00a0Mot latin d\u00e9signant la vari\u00e9t\u00e9 des masques que l'on portait sur sc\u00e8ne autrefois.
