About

"Love Sosa" Intro is a copypasta based on the prologue of the 2012 rap single "Love Sosa" by American hip hop artist Chief Keef in which a teenage boy angrily rants about people who make fun of the rapper. While the song was originally released in 2012, snowclones of the intro went viral on Black Twitter and hip hop forums in early 2016.

Origin

On July 17th, 2012, YouTuber Jordan Gilty uploaded a video titled "16 Year Old Boy Goes Off On Chief Keef Haters," which has gained over half a million views. Later that same year, the video attained minor notoriety after Chief Keef sampled the audio track of the rant into his song "Love Sosa", in the album version of the track. The original video gained just under 60 million views.
