In MyMemeCards, the meme card game, “Kaaris Showcase” is a rare card of the Memes FR pack, number 3094 of the collection, and the 753rd best-known meme of its 3493 cards. Here is what the meme means, where it comes from, and how to get its card.

What does the “Kaaris Showcase” meme mean?

This meme expresses mockery towards declarations of superiority or control within the rap scene. By repeating the original phrase with a falsely serious and mocking voice, Booba ridicules the idea that his words are a meal others must swallow without question. It symbolizes the imposition of an unacceptable or ridiculous result by its producer, highlighting the absurdity of certain discourses on artistic domination among peers.

Where does the “Kaaris Showcase” meme come from?

The primary source is the track "Dès le départ" from Kaaris's album *Or Noir*, released in autumn 2013. The viral video features Booba in a kitchen, repeating the line: "I'm in the kitchen, you eat what I prepare for you." This sequence was highlighted by the radio station Mouv’ on October 22, 2018, as a direct troll against his rival. The exact platforms of initial dissemination and the precise publication date remain uncertain. The parody works by inverting the gravity of the original to create a humorous caricature, exploiting the historical tension between these two major figures of French rap.

How to use the “Kaaris Showcase” meme

  • Use this video to describe someone who imposes their ideas arrogantly.
  • Share this clip when an artist claims to dominate the scene without tangible proof.

The reprint of the “Kaaris Showcase” card

The “Kaaris Showcase” card was reprinted as Epic (No. 3,759). 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.
