Oooh neat, I’d never come across this. Important context!
Comment on What is skibidi toilet? [Serious]
user224@lemmy.sdf.org 3 months ago
While others did explain skibidi toilet, I think it would be good to step back a little to what popularised the… sound? “skibidi”.
Some Turkish dude used this part of a song in his belly dance video. I am talking about a bouncy belly. This is a repost of that: youtube.com/shorts/3-RlRmYshCQ
He then later posted more similar videos, becoming a meme.
As for the song, this is it: youtu.be/0U7SBGBCoGs

"Skibidy" predates this song by a long shot. It's a common vocalization used in a lot of scat singing, so it's possibly a century old at this point.

Ha, true.
Hadn’t thought about this in years but you mentioning it had my mind mainlining the song.

Sup. But I was referring specifically to this instance of it as these memes use that sound specifically from this song or remixes of it.

There was a now passed MC who was a prominent figure in 00s jungle called MC Skibadee.
