Che

Why it worked

The video likely performed well due to its use of a striking visual comparison between two iconic images, tapping into music and art history discussions. The shared birthday and media controversy elements add further intrigue and relatability for the audience.

Summary

The video explains the meaning behind the cover art for the artist Che's album, which is a direct reference to David LaChapelle's 2009 photograph of Michael Jackson titled "Archangel Michael." Both images depict an angelic figure standing over a defeated devil, symbolizing a misunderstood martyr crucified by the media. The video also notes that Che and Michael Jackson share the same birthday.
