The 'Today Was A Good Day' meme originates from the 1992 hit single 'It Was a Good Day' by legendary rapper Ice Cube. The lyrics detail a surprisingly peaceful day in South Central Los Angeles, featuring iconic lines like 'didn't even have to use my AK.' The meme typically uses a still image of Ice Cube from the music video or a stylized graphic of him behind the wheel of his lowrider. It has evolved into a universal way for internet users to celebrate a series of small victories or a day that went unexpectedly well, often ending with the classic punchline about it being a good day.
