"Bouge de là" (French, meaning: "move from there" or "get out of here", also translated as "take a hike") is the debut single by MC Solaar. It samples "The Message" by Cymande, a band formed in London in the early 1970s. This was the first single from his album Qui sème le vent récolte le tempo, and reached No. 22 on the French SNEP Singles Chart in September 1991. It was also the second hip hop hit in France, after Benny B's "Vous êtes fous!" in 1990, although it was considered by the French newspaper Le Figaro as the first one.[1]

The song was covered by Les Enfoirés on their album 2011: Dans l'œil des Enfoirés, and included in the medley "Une nuit au musée". The song was also performed by Grégoire, Alizée, Jean-Louis Aubert, Zazie, Renan Luce, Hélène Ségara, Claire Keim, Tina Arena, Christophe Maé and Gérard Jugnot.[2]
