TikTok has always played a role in elevating music, and many people often attribute the fact that it makes music even more relatable and plays a role in bringing back music that once disappeared based on how much the trend emerges and how much it is approached in an inherently creative way.
The latest song to gain massive popularity on the platform is Young Thug, despite being released a few years ago. For the past few months, TikTok users have been creating videos featuring the catchy line from Young Thug’s 2016 song Gangster Sh*t.

While there is no official trend or challenge associated with Young Thug’s song, users have been sharing random clips of themselves or others lip-syncing the lyrics to “Have You Prayed Today.”
According to Know Your Meme, this now-viral catchphrase gained momentum on TikTok in 2023, with TikTokers using a remixed version of the song along with a purple-toned filter, similar to the mid-2010s aesthetic.
The unofficial trend of the song has attracted numerous participants who access the sound in humorous or related situations. For example, one post pairs the text “Pov: sleeping with that one friend” with the background verse of the song “Did you pray today” that plays along with the meme.

This follows the recent popularity of the 1, 2, buckle my shoe trend on the TikTok platform, where creators have created hilarious and hysterical spoof videos using well-known 18th-century nursery rhymes.
Users are overwhelmed by the trend, which is currently being used in references and slang among millennials and Gen Z in their normal everyday conversations.
