About

Somali Core is a compilation series of ethnic Somalis put into unusual situations that tend to be shown as comedic, with a strange popular TikTok song played in the background in every Somali Core part. Many of the clips featured are from various uploads from different Twitter accounts. In one notable example (which is the main profile image of this subject), a United Kingdom police officer, who happens to be ethnically Somali according to the cameraman, is approached by the cameraman with a Somali accent and said to him, "Wallahi inaudible, you got Somali fat nigga inaudible." The officer responds in question, "You alright man?", as the cameraman responds in a mock tone. In another example, a Somali man with a deep Somali accent is seen lying on the ground to protest for George Floyd during the George Floyd riots in Minneapolis, Minnesota. As the crowd cheers, "I can't breathe", he badly times the chant in his Somali accent while holding up the camera. Many of these clips are found on Twitter and are not recent uploads, as they have been popular to mainly the Somali community for a long time.

Influence

Somali Core is thought to have taken influence from Hood Irony as the clips featured are similar to the idea of comedic sketches of black people, which in this case is Somalis.
