One of the most popular songs on TikTok has unexpected roots. It’s a song that was originally written and aired by Louis Theroux for his TV series, Weird Weekends.
The rap was remixed and autotuned by producers Duke & Jones and has become an anthem for the app. It’s been used in millions of videos and has even inspired a dance.
TikTok
TikTok is a video-sharing app that has become a global phenomenon. It allows users to create short clips with music, filters and other fun features.
It’s also a discovery machine, and often trends start on it and spread to other platforms. It’s a great place for brands to reach new consumers with content that appeals to their audience’s interests and makes them want to learn more about their product or service.
While the platform is primarily aimed at younger users, many older users also use it. However, it is important to keep in mind that some of these older users may be sexual predators or may not be aware of their age restrictions.
One way to protect yourself from these risks is to limit the amount of personal information you share on TikTok. Alternatively, you can opt for two-factor authentication on your account. This can help prevent phishing or ransomware attacks on your device. It’s also a good idea to keep your password secure and avoid sharing it outside of the app.
Louis Theroux
Louis Theroux, the award-winning writer and presenter, has become well known for his hard-hitting documentaries. His BBC specials have taken him to places such as a Miami jail and a paedophilia hospital, as well as exploring the world of Scientology.
He started his career as a journalist working for Metro weekly in San Jose, California. He later moved to New York to work for Spy magazine. He also became a correspondent for Michael Moore’s TV Nation series.
He anchored sixteen segments for the show, including reports on selling Avon to women in the Amazon rainforest and on the Ku Klux Klan’s attempt to rebrand itself as a civil rights group for white people. The series was canceled after two seasons, but he signed a development deal with the BBC. He went on to produce a documentary about his adventures, Louis Theroux’s Weird Weekends.
Duke & Jones
Manchester-based DJ duo Duke & Jones are quickly establishing themselves as one of the most forward-thinking acts in electronic music. Their unique sound is characterized by minimalism and anticipation, garnering them millions of global listeners on a regular basis and support from some of the biggest artists in the industry.
With a knack for pushing boundaries and blurring genres, Duke & Jones are ushering in a new wave of creativity, but don’t let that fool you into thinking they’re satisfied with just chart domination or club circuit acclaim — their aspirations aim much higher.
They’ve already made waves on TikTok with their hilarious auto-tune remixes, but it’s their rap-version of Louis Theroux’s ‘Money Don’t Jiggle Jiggle’ that has caught on in the most surprising way. In fact, the track reached viral heights that many producers can only dream of.
In a recent interview with M Magazine, Luke Conibear and Isaac McKelvey revealed the story behind the remix, including why it took them only 15 minutes to create it. They also shared their experience with getting clearance from Neil Diamond.
Shakespeare
Shakespeare, born in April of 1564, was a playwright and actor. He prospered financially from his partnership in a theatrical company, the Lord Chamberlain’s Men (later the King’s Men).
He also wrote poetry and prose. His poems are considered to be seminal to the English language, and his plays include both tragedy and comedy.
His writing style changed gradually from the traditional form to a more self-expressive style, as evidenced in his most famous works, like A Midsummer Night’s Dream and Romeo and Juliet. He progressively inserted metaphors and tropes into the melodrama.
When writing verse, Shakespeare favored iambic pentameter. This is a form of ten-syllable verse with an accent on every other syllable, beginning with the second syllable. It is also a rhythmic pattern that helps an actor to quickly say a line.
