FRANCE 24 interviews producer of viral Donald Trump-inspired song ‘Eating the cats’ • FRANCE 24
Musician and producer David Scott “The Kiffness” recently spoke to FRANCE 24 on how he picked up on Donald Trump’s now-debunked claim of immigrants supposedly eating cats and dogs and turned it into what became a viral sensation called “Eating the cats”. The song is a “proper earworm and it has been driving me crazy because I’m performing the song every night and people are singing along”, said Scott.

Trump is such a loser.
One black lady from Springfield got youtube crying because the world has turned it into a joke. But she sobbed, you will never understand until you see your dogs decapitate head on your driveway. Very horrifying.
Thats kiff
So proud to be South Africa. This is brilliant David 🎉❤
What about the bunnies and chickens and foxies please make one of them😂
Nothing but love…
Bringing people together.
He's a life force. Lovely man + ace musician… Just wait for the trumpet!
The Kiffness was already famous before this.
It's not been debunked, typical leftess media.
His sincerity in making outstanding music in his satire blows people away.
Love this man made COVID bearable
Idk your religious affiliation, but you seem grounded in reality to me. You're doing beautiful work here and keeping it neutral politically, the truth always shines through. I pray our God blesses you richly for putting out, positive and pleasant music. Please always follow your instincts and He will provide the increase
Please make another video featuring trumps covid lies. PLEASE
Cool song – South Africa with Trump 2024. FJB, FKH, FTW
South Africans…….we have no chill!😂😂😂😂 We keep God busy as his naughtiest kids stru!
Kiffness presidente! 🎉
He's the best, such a lovely person! 🐈⬛️ 🇬🇧❤🇿🇦 🐈⬛️
No one in USA knows what real hunger and famine is all about…..And no, it has nothing to do with the casual half-day-fasting some religious people make one or two Sundays during the year. Apparently some of the Haitians brought to United States not only their culture, but also their "famine mentality"……And yes, some honest Haitians agree that this is a common practice in times of crisis in Haiti…..However, some Trump critics have tried to make fun of his comments and ridicule him, assuming that the rest of the world has the same american mentality and values. (That's called "ethnocentrism")…..And no, I'm not a Trump Fan and I won't vote for him, but we need to be as objective as possible! 😊
Not a single word spent on the real victims of Trump's words… The Haitians living in Springfield. But ops… Haitians are black, and ops… He's a Southafrican white. Maybe he chose to buy (and spread) the lie and to protect the pets. From whom?
As someone who supports Trump, I think it's awesome that the message is being amplified in so many different ways. The Kifness is one of the best. Thank you ❤
The Kiffness is picking of Morecone and Puccini's slack; now that they're both gone.
Just the fact he wrote this song is amazing I also love ❤️ BEAUTIFUL DAYYYYYY
Kiffness has made many other great viral songs prior to this that I knew of, so the reporter has the facts wrong.
I ❤ love the Kiffness!!!
I LOVE IT!!!!1 The drummer is cute too
I’m 70 from UK and I reckon this is the best pop song ever. “Why would you do that..?” Brilliant. Yes it keeps me awake all night like a loop in my brain. I did an extended version on my YouTube vintage solo Harmony, about people of Cebu, with pigs, goats and chickens. So happy the Kiffness is one of my tribe, too!
Big fan for a long time. Well done
This is "hide ya kids, hide ya wife" x 10 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Why the Kifness aand interviewer look so alike?
The kiffness is brilliant
I remember seeing the kiffness live at a really small gig in umhlanga before they got big 🙂
The Kiffness is a genius! Everyone of his creations is a workshop on how to write great pop songs.
His great sense of humour makes our daily lives a little bit better! 😂
Helped me through the pandemic <3
A concert where people bring their kids – wonderful!
Great song! So funny 😂
"Donald Trump's now debunked claim" Uhhhh, nope, not debunked folks. But this is a mainstream media interview, so what do you expect. Good on the Kiffness for this hilarious song, though – LOVE the guy!!
I loved it.
I love that song ❤ I can't get it out of my head.
David Trump song
"How did your life change before and after the video" – No reaction from David. It's not even close to his best performing videos sitting at 27 million 😁
Its earthshattering that this guy hasn't received a friggen Grammy….
Been following many years liked him directly❤
And Trump doesn't even realize he's a global laughing stock! 🤦🏼♀️
Sometimes I'm alone, sometimes I'm not. Hello???
