- (FBE) So before we start this episode,
we just have a quick thing to tell you.
- Uh-oh.
- (FBE) Rain drop.
- Did you say "rain drop"?
- Is that the safe word? (laughing)
- Is this like a dance move or something like that?
Am I going to have to dance?
- I must be out of the loop because I don't know what this means.
- (FBE) We just have one quick thing to tell you.
- Okay.
- (FBE) Rain drop.
- Drop top? (laughing)
'Ey, people say that all the time and I don't know why.
- (FBE) Rain drop.
- Drop top.
I'm obsessed with Migos.
- (FBE) Rain drop.
- Drop top.
Yeah, man, that's my song, man.
- (FBE) Rain drop. - Drop top.
It's so common.
It's been memed so many times.
- (FBE) Rain drop.
- Drop top.
I've probably run into it on a meme somewhere
or, I don't know, something.
But I'm assuming it's from a song.

- He even got the little LL Cool J lip lick in there at the end.
- At first, I was trying to take in the video
and then I was trying to take in the words,
and none of them gave me anything.
- I liked the beat of the song, but I'm old, so I listened to the lyrics
and then I'm just kind of like eh.
- If it makes me go like this, hey, it did its job.
- I love this song. It's so [bleep] catchy.
Even Donald Glover was shouting it out at the Golden Globes.
It's catchy as hell.
- (FBE) So this has turned into a trend,
like we did with you in the beginning of the video,
where you say "rain drop" and someone else responds with "drop top."
- Ah, okay.
- Oh no!
- I am on the older scale of the millennial spectrum, if you will,
so I missed this one.
- (FBE) And it's evolved into a variety of posts
using the lyrics in various ways, which we're going to show you
some examples of now. - Yes! Let's go.
- "When she doesn't say drop top after you say rain drop.
She's not yo' ho' no mo'." (laughing)
- That's true.
There's nothing worse than saying part of the meme
and that person is looking at you like, "What are you talking about?"
- Any Michael Scott quotes, like memes and stuff,
are going to get me instantly.
It doesn't matter.
- Honestly, anyone who doesn't say drop top
after I say rain drop can't be my friend.
- "Rain drop, drop top, Kevin dropped that pot pot."
(chuckling)
I don't get it!
- (laughing) Okay, that's all right.
- I love The Office. That's so good.
It's a quality meme.
- Oh my god! I remember that episode!
Ah, I love these Office references. This is great.
- "Rain drop, drop top, Spongebob still waitin' at the bus stop."
- So are they just rhyming it? Is that all it is?
- Aw, that's a sad episode.
He got to live in pffft glove pffft world pffft.
- "Rain drop, drop top, look, me and Wendy did a face swap."
(laughing)
I want to be this creative when I meme.
- To the music, it would be cool, you know, if they kind of showed
a series of them.
- It's not funny. It's not creative.
You guys have me react to things that make me feel so old.
- "Rain drop, drop top, I'm Rick Harrison and this is my pawn shop."
Now you're just reaching.
- That's cool. That's funny.
- That's the intro, right, to Pawn Stores.
- I guess a lot of things rhyme with that, doesn't it?
Oh my god.
- (laughing)
Oh jeez.
- Okay.
- Oh no! I've seen so many of these specifically.
- Doesn't it look though like that's what he's doing every time?
He's like, "Look, mommy, I signed my name!"
- They're funny. They're creative.
They're witty. I love it.
- Super creative. Like, well played.
- I just don't think that's worth a meme!
Like, I don't know how it turned into a meme.
I really don't, but that's the internet for you.
They'll turn anything into a meme.
- The root of the meme is not funny.
The song is a garbage song.
Everything that you have presented to me today
has been bad.
♪ (industrial music) ♪
- (FBE) So the song Bad and Boujee by the Atlanta based rap group Migos
is currently number one on the Billboard Hot 100 charts,
which has held for a few weeks.
- What? This is the number one song?
- Oh my goodness. They deserve it.
- (FBE) Why do you think this has become such a big hit?
- Memes.
It probably propelled it up the charts all of a sudden.
- The memes have actually redirected the attention to the song.
- People are keeping it going with the memes, I guess,
but it's a catchy song.
That's probably why it's staying around.
- It's a very catchy song
and then internet trolls took it to the next level.
- It's a dope ass video, you know what I mean?
Like, you're eating-- it's an interesting concept.
Like, you're being fancy,
yet you're eating fried chicken in the hood.
- If it comes on in the club or at a party,
I'm there dancing to it and then it's something that--
I'll listen it in the morning when I'm getting ready.
It just gets me hyped for the day.
Good vibes.
- (FBE) Migos originally had success back in 2013
and have had a few songs chart on billboards since then,
but nothing to this level until now.
What do you think about that side of artists,
where you can release music for years
but it can take so long to find mass success,
if you even find it at all.
- Well, it's just that-- you know, it's a gamble, man.
- I've been a big fan of theirs for years.
I've seen them in concert.
I definitely do see how this is the thing that made them go viral
because, you know, it's catchy.
- It just goes for any type of career.
If you want to put in the time, the effort, and dedication
towards working on a craft, then I feel like your efforts
will definitely be rewarded at some point, but it is constant grind.
- Music is complicated.
If you're not getting promotion, it doesn't matter how great your music is.
People are not going to listen to it
because you don't have direct access to them.
You have to build.
So maybe from 2013 til now, they have a chance,
they have had a chance to build their following,
and be able to deliver that throughout the years,
and now that they've made a new hit,
now it's like their following is there.
- (FBE) So now, finally that you know a little bit more about Migos,
Rain drop. - (chuckling) Drop top.
Yay, I'm cool now.
- (FBE) Rain drop. - Drop top.
Cookin' dope in a crockpot.
- (FBE) Rain drop.
- Drop top. (laughing)
Yeah, I'm out of the loop on that.
- (FBE) Rain drop.
- Nope!
Drop top. All right.
It hurt, like, in my soul. Like deep in my black hole heart, it hurt.
