Rappers Tyga (@tyga), LilMosey (@lilmosey), and Rae Sremmurd’s SwaeLee (@swaelee) connect for the release of KrabbyStep, one of the tracks featured on the soundtrack of Nickelodeon’s new Spongebob movie, The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge on the Run.

Originally, the animated picture was scheduled to be released in August 2020, but it was later postponed to 2021 due to the COVID-19 outbreak. However, the film was finally released on Netflix on November 5, 2020.

[Chorus: Tyga]
To the left, to the left, to the left (Yay!) To the right, to the right, you the best (Yay!) Stand up, stand up, hands up (Yay!) You the best, you the best, never give up (Yay!)
The song includes a catchy chorus, which will most likely be converted into a popular TikTok dance or challenge. Then, the verses include little bits of SpongeBob jargon with no need to translate to those who grew up watching he, who lives in a pineapple under the sea and all of his Bikini Bottom friends.
