Fasten your seat-belt and hop on a musical TGV: in “Bienvenue Chez Moi,” Bigflo & Oli turn a rap track into a joyful postcard that zips through Bordeaux, Lyon, Marseille, Lille, Paris, Strasbourg, Toulouse and even detours to Belgium, Switzerland, Corsica and La Réunion. Each stopover is painted with playful stereotypes and local treasures — cannelés in Bordeaux, kugelhopf in Strasbourg, beer by the Manneken Pis, and an enormous mechanical elephant roaming Nantes. The brothers poke fun at rivalries (Lyon vs. Saint-Étienne), admire breathtaking landscapes, and savour the regional accents that make every corner of the Francophone world feel distinct.
Beneath the humor, the song carries a warm message of unity and pride. The chorus invites everyone, whether from a “grand ville” or “p’tit village,” to come “chez moi,” reminding listeners that hospitality, diversity and shared love of good food and music are the true landmarks of France. By the time the beat returns to their beloved hometown Toulouse, you feel like you have travelled the entire hexagon and made friends in every carriage.
