In MyMemeCards, the meme card game, “Black à part” is a rare card of the Memes FR pack, number 1714 of the collection, and the 753rd best-known meme of its 3502 cards. Here is what the meme means, where it comes from, and how to get its card.

What does the “Black à part” meme mean?

The meme plays on how close “blague” and “black” sound: a harmless phrase becomes, to the ear, another one that changes the meaning entirely. People use it to point at a misunderstanding, a misheard word or an answer that misses the question. It also restarts a chat with humour when one side clearly misheard. More broadly it points to the world of content creators Théodore and Maskey, and to the small improvised exchanges that are funny because they are absurd.

Where does the “Black à part” meme come from?

The meme comes from an exchange between Théodore and Maskey in which “blague à part”, said to move on to serious matters, is understood as “Black à part”. Maskey is a French-born content creator and rapper known for music parodies; he started on YouTube in 2015 with gaming videos, notably FIFA, before moving to rap, and he showed his face for the first time on 5 December 2022 after wearing a mask since his channel began. The mix-up was cut into a short clip and shared under this caption.

How to get the “Black à part” card

Every pack holds 5 meme cards, the first 3 of them Common; Black à part comes out of the Memes FR pack as a rare card. The pack odds say what each rarity weighs.

Your first pack is free and needs no account. After that a new free pack lands every 10 minutes, up to 3 waiting for you. You can also buy the card with MemeCoins on the market, bid for it at auction, or trade it — and a double recycles into 10 MemeCoins.

The reprint of the “Black à part” card

The “Black à part” card was reprinted as Epic (No. 3,022). A reprint is the same meme printed again, with a number of its own and a higher rarity than its first printing, which was rare. Its face reads “Reprinted card · Higher rarity”.

Every printing is dealt in the packs of the Memes FR pack, each at its own rarity: the higher it is, the rarer the card is to pull. Copies of the first printing already pulled stay as they are, and any printing counts toward completing a set.

MyMemeCards reprints a meme when it deserves more than the rarity of its first printing, such as a classic that became iconic after it came out: the reprint gives it a place among the most sought-after cards without taking anything from the players who already had it.
