Belgium was the first country to announce its representative for Eurovision 2024, which will be held in Malmö in May. Mustii was the artist selected by Belgian broadcaster RTBF to release a song for the upcoming music competition.
The song is titled “Before the Party’s Over” and the Belgian singer also released its music video.
An interesting fact about this song is that in addition to Mustii’s vocals, it features the voices of fans from all over the world. Back in January, Musti asked fans to join him for a part that said, “My soul is on fire, tonight I’m going to act. My soul is on fire, tonight I’m going to raise the roof.”
‘Before the Party’s Over’ reflects Mustii’s own desire to focus on what’s next when he was announced to represent Belgium.
– My idea is to take my DNA to the Eurovision Song Contest. I don’t want to lie, I want to be honest. I don’t want to create a fake character.
Musti
Thomas Mustin, or simply Mustin, is a 32-year-old Belgian singer and actor who has been in the entertainment industry since 2012.
He will be representing Belgium at Eurovision 2024, but his first steps into the art world happened on the French TV show À tort ou à raison’ and in the theater. Since then, he has appeared in multiple shows and movies. It was in his 2014 that he released his first musical work ‘The Golden Age’ and this song became a hit in the country. Many singles and many recognitions (including several awards) followed, and two studio albums were also released: “21st Century Boy” and “It’s Happening Now.”
In addition to Eurovision, Musti will also return to Belgian Drag Race in 2024, where he will serve as a permanent judge on the show.
