DEEP DIVE
Creators are walking in slow-motion to audio of TikToker @Spencewuah hyping us his followers while “Walk” by Saucy Santana plays in the background.
In the audio clip @Spencewuah says, “Put on a cute a** outfit and walk in front of your camera at 0.3x speed and tell me you don’t feel like a bad b*tch!”
FYI, 0.3x is a slow-motion speed setting.
Uh, let me see you walk
Walk (Walk, walk, walk, walk, walk, walk)
Uh, yea hoe
The trend is incredibly popular with over 320,000 videos linked to the audio. The trend started growing on the app in early January.
