Running All Over the Place Blue in the Face and Shi is Bubonic refers to lyrics from a rap song by Chandler Matkins (or Chandler), which went viral when he shared a clip of him rapping them on TikTok in early 2025. The full lyrics read, "Running all over the place, blue in the face, looking like Sonic. Got up on stage around nine and the next day they called it 'iconic.' In between that, I was off of some tonic, vodka and lime, and a pack of the chronic. Bring death to a beat, shi is bubonic." Depicted in the memes, Chandler Matkins is a large white man with red hair and a beard, who's seen in the dark wearing a black beanie. The full song was called "BIG BODY BROTHERS" featuring fellow rapper Billy Marchiafava. Meme creators on TikTok started using the video in exploitable content in the weeks that followed, mostly making fun of Matkins' lyrics, delivery and video akin to meme rap and satirical hip-hop. Some people called it "Coworker Music" and others compared Matkins to Twitch streamer CaseOh due to their resemblance.

Artists Who Can Sing Vs. Artists Who Can't Sing, also known as Rappers That Can Sing Vs. Rappers Can't Sing refers to a series of ironic and brainrot edits using videos comparing singer's vocal abilities, most specifically using Filipino-British singer-songwriter Beabadoobee as the "can't sing" musician and clips of American rapper NBA Youngboy as the "can sing," showing him singing opera music while lasers are shooting from his eye. The meme started in mid-July 2024 but only gained viral attention in late February 2025 after Beabadoobee crashed out about the trend, fueling netizens to create more content on TikTok.
