Stupeflip (French: [sty.pɛ.flip]) is a French hip hop band formed in 2000, composed of Julien Barthélémy, Stéphane Bellenger and Jean-Paul Michel. Their style can be described as a mix of hip hop, punk rock and synthpop.[2]

Stupeflip members are known by their stage personas: Julien Barthélémy as King Ju and Pop Hip, Stéphane Bellenger as Cadillac and Jean-Paul Michel as MC Saló. These characters and the band itself are part of an elaborate fictional universe featuring mysterious concepts such as "L'Ère du Stup" ("Stup Era"), "La Menuiserie" ("Carpentry"), "Le Mystère au chocolat" ("Chocolate Mystery"), etc.

The band rose to fame with its single "Je Fume Pu D'Shit" in 2003. After having released three albums, Stupeflip began soliciting financial support on the crowdfunding platform Ulule to produce a new one. The crowdfunding campaign was a huge success with 40 000 euros raised in just a month. The crowdfunding ended at 428'000 euros. This album was released on March 3 2017.[3]
