What does the “Mister Boombastic” meme mean?
“Mister Boombastic” is invoked for an entrance full of swagger, unapologetic cool and a hint of irony. The chorus backs edits where someone walks slowly, dances or fancies himself a great lover. It is also the soundtrack to absurd clips, where the contrast between mellow reggae and the on-screen action sparks laughter. Saying the name is often enough to make others sing: the melody became a collective reflex.
Where does the “Mister Boombastic” meme come from?
Boombastic, or Mr. Boombastic, is a song by Jamaican reggae artist Shaggy, released in May 1995 by Virgin Records as the second single from his third studio album of the same name. After being used in a Levi's ad, it became a big hit in several countries, including Ireland, the United Kingdom, Sweden, New Zealand and Australia, where it topped the charts. It also reached number three on the US Billboard Hot 100. The track samples a song by King Floyd. Decades later, its chorus fuelled edits, remixes and short videos.
