Ten kills on the board right now, just wiped out Tomato Town.\u201d If your TikTok algorithm has thrown you anywhere near the gaming or good-vibe spheres, chances are you\u2019ve heard those magical words. Several years after its debut, a Fortnite parody of \u201cAmerican Boy\u201d has gone viral on the platform, and its \u201cget down\u201d ad lib is everyone\u2019s latest source of immediate serotonin. \u201cMy friend just got downed, I revived him, now we\u2019re heading southbound. Now, we\u2019re in the Pleasant Park streets, look at the map, go to the mark sheets.\u201d Sorry, but it\u2019s probably bad luck not to finish that off. Plus, if you\u2019ve heard it, then the melody was probably already in your head. Alternatively, if you haven\u2019t had the pleasure of hearing the latest gift (or curse) bestowed upon us by Fortnite kids, then it might be best to start with a classic example of how happy it\u2019s making people. The original parody, \u201cLet\u2019s play Fortnite!!!!,\u201d was created by YouTube\u2019s CM SKITS back in 2018, but, with about 84,000 views, it didn\u2019t gain very much nationwide traction. An artist named Leviathan then made a version, titled \u201cChug Jug With You\u201d around 2019, and that melodically infused rendition has gone up to over 400,000 plays on SoundCloud. As TikTok is known to do, the song has now, years later, made an incredible resurgence. Not only are there over 100,000 videos made using the sound, but some of them \u2014 like Ethan \u2018H3HE\u2019 Klein and GeorgeNotFound\u2019s reactions \u2014 have millions of likes (and even more views).

In one such example, musician \u2018adamtahere\u2019 called it the \u201ccatchiest song I\u2019ve ever heard\u201d and proceeded to sing a beautifully autotuned version. Like Dota 2 and Netflix, the song has even gotten an animation treatment. And, while the budget is obviously lower for this one, \u2018Pan_animates\u2019 nonetheless had to bring Leviathan\u2019s ode to Fortnite, Estelle and Kanye to artistic life. Ever since Fortnite released in 2017, it has fluctuated as a blend between gaming and mainstream culture. Some parents and teachers probably got mad at all of the game\u2019s dances infecting their homes and schools, but it seems that the game\u2019s influence is welcomed on TIkTok. As the dust settles and games like Call of Duty: Warzone take footholds in the battle royale world, we appear to have been granted the mental space to appreciate some of Fortnite\u2019s offerings.
