What Is The R.E.P.O. "I Love" Meme?

The "I Love" clip comes from Twitch streamer PresidentLloyd and was first uploaded by the streamer to his Instagram page on March 20th, 2025.

In the clip, which went viral and accumulated over 2.4 million likes since, shows player Just_CSmallz rolling around on the ground while belting out the song "Chest Pain (I Love)." PresidentLloyd then tries to bully him into continuing to sing.
