Stress: Renaissance II

swissinfo.ch

Pop / Hip-hop. Thirty-four year old rapper Stress is one of Switzerland's most successful musicians. Estonian-born, he moved with his parents to Lausanne in French-speaking Switzerland at age twelve. His breakthrough in the business was achieved with his very first solo album, Billy Bear. Stress' three follow-up long-players ultimately won him cult status. Secret to his success are edgy hip-hop songs with a strong socio-critical message. On Renaissance II this teen idol surprises with more tuneful backgrounds and unmistakable, bombastic pop-appeal.
