Grand Popo Football Club
August 14th, 2008
Courtesy of the peeps at BIGSTEREO, I was able to check out this snazzy little video from the Grand Popo Football Club (isn’t that just the most awesome name?).
Grand Popo Football Club are a French electronic music group of Nicolas Errèra and Ariel Wizman, best known for their 2001 hit song “Men Are Not Nice Guys” and to a lesser extent their underground dance hit “Each Finger Has An Attitude”. They also released an album entitled Shampoo Victims. The band name originated when Wizman went on a trip to Grand Popo, a village in the African nation of Benin, and “we said to ourselves that there had to be a football club in this town, and that if not, we’d have to do something about it, urgently”
“My Territory” comes off their sophomore album, and the video is awesome. Walking lips, exploding navels, I don’t know how to explain it but the video oddly enough fits the song. Pure crazyness, I say. Crazyness.
