About

Mimemamomu, also written Mi Me Ma Mo Mu or Mimemamimimamou, is a "Goofy Ahh" TikTok sound originally sourced from a video posted by TikToker and vocal coach Cheryl Porter (@cherylporterdiva) in October 2022 showing a young boy named Mateo Lopez singing (or vocalizing) in a car with her. The sound was later given a slowed + reverb remix, which inspired many memes using a CapCut video template called "Naik Kapal Malam" that added any image into a green boat floating on a lake at night.
