About

Call of Mustard and Call of Diddy are forced memes consisting of AI-generated images of Call of Duty covers featuring Kendrick Lamar holding a gun that resembles a mustard bottle and P. Diddy holding a gun that resembles a bottle of baby lotion, respectively. The original Call of Diddy meme was posted to iFunny in mid-April 2025 and reposted to X / Twitter by Drama Alert, resulting in X user @KdotFunnies creating the Call of Mustard meme. The meme and variations of it were reposted numerous times over the following weeks, often alongside the caption, "'Call of mustard' meme is going viral. 🤣" The mustard bottle is a reference to the DJ Mustard meme and the baby lotion is a reference to the claim that Diddy had 1,000 bottles of baby oil in his home.
