De man van 31, the 2007 album from Flip Kowlier, is the work of a man who refuses to pick a lane. Born Filip Cauwelier in Izegem, West Flanders, in 1976, he made his name as an MC with the hip-hop crew 't Hof van Commerce, and on his own records he picks up a guitar and fronts a band, landing somewhere between rock and hip-hop. "Donderdagnacht" was the song from that album that reached the countdowns, alongside the cheekily titled "De Grootste Lul Van 't Stad".

What makes him instantly his own is the language. Kowlier sings in West Flemish dialect, which makes his songs feel like conversations overheard in a local bar rather than anything built for export, and gives even his tender moments a rough, homespun grain. Behind him in the solo band sit drummers Karel De Backer and Joost Van den Broeck, keyboardist Peter Lesage and bassist Pieter Van Buyten.
