About
Why Dis Nigga Look So Mad, also known as Why Dis ๐ฅท๐ฟ Look So Mad ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ, refers to a photo from a TikTok photo slideshow showing two guys standing on a sidewalk at night. One guy's face is shrouded by a shadow and only his eyes are visible, making him appear evil or angry compared to the other boy whose face is fully visible. The photo became a Redraw art trend on Twitter / X in July 2024. As the meme spread, artists replaced the guys with characters from TV, movies, anime and video games, using their contrasting appearances to portray a difference in the personalities of the characters alongside the phrasal template Why Dis X Look So Mad.
