BIOGRAPHY

Artiste Contents

Grand M is a Malian musician and comedian who shot into the limelight thanks to his unique laughter and facial expression.

His real name is Mohamed Nantoume. Grand M., his stage name, comes from a joke satirizing his stature and the M from his fanaticism to Lionel Messi, with whom he was identified when playing football in his neighbourhood.

After a friend shared a video of him laughing, he went viral, a laugh so infectious that it was immediately replicated in hundreds of memes and funny videos.

Grand M. took his first steps in the humour scene as an antidote to the bullying suffered due to his condition. This, along with his cheekiness, helped him channels his talent, and today he is like a social media celebrity, with more than 1.3 million followers only on Instagram. In less than a year he reached more than 800 thousand and even the Colombian reggaeton star J Balvin has talked about Grand M. on an Instagram post.

The Malian musician has recently released his first single entitled Messi, which has already reached more than 200 thousand plays on digital platforms.
