Jeangu Macrooy ([ʒɑ̃nˈgy maˈkroːi]; * November 6, 1993 in Paramaribo) is a Surinamese singer and songwriter. With his brother Xillan Macrooy, he formed the duo Between Towers in 2011. In 2020, Dutch public broadcaster AVROTROS announced that Macrooy would be the host country at ESC 2020, and since the Netherlands had won ESC 2019, he was automatically qualified for the final.

About the song "Birth of a New Age"

Birth of a New Age is a mostly English-language pop song written by Jeangu Macrooy and Pieter Perquin. Macrooy will represent the Netherlands at the ESC 2021 with the title. This is the line "Mi na afu sensi, no wan man e broko mi" (German "I'm half a cent, you can't break me."). The "half cent" in Suriname was the coin with the smallest value. In relation to the title, the line stood for self-confidence, resilience and determination. #netherlands #macrooy #2021 #esc #jeangu #eurovision #song #contest #birth #of #new #age

Preselection

Until 2012, the Netherlands held regular preliminary competitions, mostly under the title Nationaal Songfestival. Until then, only in 1961, 1980 and 2008 was the performer and accompanying song selected internally. Since 2013, however, all Dutch entries have been selected internally. The preliminaries, which were held regularly until 2012, were held in many different systems. #eurovision #song #contest #2021 #netherlands #preselection #macrooy #jeangu #songfestival
