The world of Alligatoah is a universe of its own
Music Video of the Week is by the influential German artist Alligatoah “SO RAUS” featuring Fred Durst. The concept of an artist called “Alligatoah” is built from multiple layers and just as you think you got to the core of it, all appears to be an illusion and you’re again at the starting position.
The music video for SO RAUS is part of the expanding universe. Alligatoah seemingly was “gone” and the music video appeared as his “last wish”: To have a song with Fred Durst from Limp Bizkit. Trusty friend Battleboi Basti made sure to bring this wish alive.
Perhaps it is a promo for the new phase of the ever changing Alligatoah while being a humoristic social commentary and using AI as an analog for comparing the past and future and us trying to keep up with the ever changing fashion trends and what not. Maybe it is none of that. There is really no end or beginning. We love it.
Producer and DOP Andreas Eisenach did a fantastic job on his end with the storytelling and the atmosphere created in the dark cellar depicting the hardworking Battleboi is executed beautifully. The team knew what they were doing.
