42 Dugg Says Rae Sremmurd Could Have Dominated TikTok

42 Dugg went on Twitter to claim that Rae Sremmurd would dominate TikTok, if it was around earlier. Swae Lee has also asked him to feature in “SremmLife 4.”

Rae Sremmurd, TikTok And Mannequin Challenge

TikTok is an app that was first launched in 2016 in China. It is a social media app that is focused on short-form videos. This has caused it to become the perfect place for the challenge videos that incorporate copyrighted music. The music in these challenge videos would then blow up, causing the song to become famous.

Coincidentally, also in 2016, Rae Sremmurd became famous for the Mannequin Challenge. The challenge video is to act like a mannequin in time with the song “Black Beatles.” The trend was so popular that it caused the composition to become a No. 1 Hot 100 single and even caused Paul McCartney to hop on the bandwagon.

On February 2, 42 Dugg tweeted that if TikTok was around earlier, then the album Rae Srummurd would dominate the platform.

The next day, Swan Lee responded to the tweet, requesting 42 Dugg to feature on the upcoming “SremmLife 4″ album.

“Need you on that Sremm 4. We started viral challenges to be honest it’s crazy how people react to the music …New albums on the horizon. Take 1 step back to take 10 steps forward.”

“SremmLife 4”

“SremmLife 4” has been in the works since 2018. Rae Sremmurd talked about the upcoming record at the time too. The album was previously promised a 2019 release date, which obviously did not pass.

“SremmLife 4,” we’re sticking to the script of what we do on the “SremmLife;” making club bangers, making timeless classics, and just bringing the vibe,” he explained in October 2018. “Me and Slim Jxmmi are coming together for another classic album, our fourth album. “SremmLife 4″ will come early next year.”
