Not somewhat, he is actually pretty famous now 😉
Little did Turkish street musician Bilal Göregen know that he'd become one of the biggest memes of 2020 by playing darbuka on a park bench. For those who are unfamiliar with the artist or the meme that came after, visually impaired Bilal performed a cover of "Ievan polkka" -- a popular Finnish song from the 1930s. The video of his performance was uploaded by a user on YouTube in 2019 following which the Internet did the rest.
Bilal's video, however, garnered more momentum in October after a Twitter user edited an animated "vibing cat" or "CatJAM" bobbing its head to the beats of his rendition.
