In MyMemeCards, the meme card game, “Showcase Philippe Etchebest” is a rare card of the Memes FR pack, number 2031 of the collection, and the 753rd best-known meme of its 3496 cards. Here is what the meme means, where it comes from, and how to get its card.
What does the “Showcase Philippe Etchebest” meme mean?
The meme runs on a clash of worlds. On one side, a track by Kaaris, a key figure of French rap; on the other, Philippe Etchebest, a Michelin-starred chef known to the public for his TV temper. Seeing them together surprises and amuses. People use it to comment on an unlikely crossover, to celebrate the energy of someone nobody expected, or to go with a video cut to a rap beat. It expresses teasing admiration for someone taking over a genre that is not theirs.
Where does the “Showcase Philippe Etchebest” meme come from?
The meme refers to a “Showcase” by Kaaris covered by Philippe Etchebest. Kaaris, born on 30 January 1980 in Abidjan and raised in Sevran, France, is a rapper credited with popularizing trap in France. Philippe Etchebest, born on 2 December 1966 in Soissons, is a starred chef based in Bordeaux, the face of Cauchemar en cuisine on M6 since April 2011 and a Top Chef judge. The meme was born from the meeting of those two worlds: a very media-savvy chef taking over a rap track, with the excerpt shared as a small moment of humor.
