About

Druski Dancing refers to a clip of Druski dancing on a Kai Cenat stream with Kevin Hart. Druski's wearing a red baseball jersey, shorts and ski goggles in the video. The clip was used in memes on TikTok in late 2024 and early 2025. Meme creators sped-up the video and added text captions about "2024 stats" or the Old Password / New Password / Error: Same Password snowclone, among others. Later, people used the phrasal template "Yes, I'm X" and Yes the Pizza is Aggressive. The main sounds used in the Druski Dancing memes were a hip-hop / rap beat with overblown 808s (Osamason's "5") and an acapella version of Mac Miller's "Knock Knock" with the lyrics, "Crazy ass kids come and knocked up on your door so / Let 'em in." Heading into 2025, the Druski Dancing memes became increasingly absurd and associated with Brainrot as nonsensical captions or purposefully illegible walls of text were added overtop. Many of the captions started using the slang terms TS and PMO which were often misused for ironic effect.

Origin

On June 11th, 2024, the Kai Cenat Live YouTube^[1] channel posted a full-length stream of Cenat, Kevin Hart and Druski, gaining over 10.8 million views in seven months. At the video's 5:00-minute mark (shown below), Druski dances towards the camera, picking his feet up and swinging his arms side to side.

On December 20th, TikToker^[2] @freejbandzz used a sped-up version of the video with text overlay reading, "2024 wrap up," with satirical stats joking about being unemployed and chronically online. The TikTok sound^[3] used was the beat for Osamason's song "5," produced by Azure. Over a month, the video received roughly 363,400 likes (shown below). The video is currently the first known memetic usage of the Druski Dancing clip.

Spread

In the following days, others used the format, like TikToker^[4] @zaysciiiius on December 28th, 2024, who added text overlay reading, "Old password: showering / New password: useless / ERROR: 'New password cannot be same as old password,'" receiving over 40,600 likes in a month (shown below).

Also on December 28th, TikToker^[5] @marcosis300 shared a Druski Dancing video using a new sound that was an acapella version of Mac Miller's "Knock Knock," centering on the lyrics, "Crazy ass kids come and knocked up on your door so / Let 'em in." The original video was a Vine, circa 2015.^[6] The TikTok^[5] joked about, "People who we are not leaving in 2024," coinciding with the Mass Unfollowing of Vexbolts.
