The Coronavirus Remix emerged in March 2020 after rapper Cardi B posted an Instagram video expressing her panic over the burgeoning global pandemic, frantically shouting 'Coronavirus! Shit is getting real!' Producers, most notably DJ iMarkkeyz, sampled her voice to create a catchy trap remix that quickly dominated TikTok and social media charts worldwide. The meme captures a specific moment of collective anxiety transformed into dark humor and danceable content during the initial lockdowns. It is frequently used to represent chaotic situations, unexpected global events, or simply to trigger nostalgia for the bizarre internet culture that defined the early pandemic era.
