"I'm an Albatraoz" is a 2014 single by Swedish DJ and record producer AronChupa, featuring uncredited vocals from Nora Ekberg, his sister[citation needed]. The song has been certified double platinum in Sweden and Australia and platinum in New Zealand, Italy and Denmark.

Music video

The video for the single features Aron Ekberg's younger sister Nora Ekberg, also known as Little Sis Nora. The video starts off with the song being introduced by a French announcer, with a black background, and the text "A film by AronChupa" and "In association with Sertac Yildizhan", accompanied by a pianist.

Women are shown doing their makeup and applying perfume in a dressing room, and act as backup dancers in their dressing gowns. While the video is focused mostly on Nora Ekberg, AronChupa is also shown behind a turntable, with an older drummer nearby. Saxophone players are also shown.

Ekberg raps about a woman who she calls a mouse and refers to in a vulgar way.

The word albatraoz is a made-up word, created to reference an albatross[4] and the group itself. Mouse is also a play on words, as the Swedish for mouse is 'mus', which also means vagina, or pussy, which can also mean 'cat'.
