It’s CORN!

If you don’t know what Corn TikTok is, then you’ve clearly been living under a rock for the past few weeks!

To summarise, Recess Therapy did a little interview with Tariq (aka Corn Kid, AKA CEO of corn) and it’s about the cutest bloody thing I’ve seen in a while; 

In true internet fashion, TikToker @schmoyoho decided to create one hell of a catchy tune;

intro song for any meal/snack with corn 🌽 – from iconic interview on @doingthings

♬ It’s Corn – Tariq & The Gregory Brothers & Recess Therapy

You might be thinking, “this style of meme song is so familiar…” Let me stop you right there, it totally is because @schmoyoho was part of Auto-Tune the News which gave us the absolute BANGER “Bed Intruder” song. 

Now, what I really wanted to talk about was how brands on social have jumped on this trend. Here are a couple that I thought were pretty fun.

First up, we have Clarks;

When the social team asks for corn content, you dont ask questions 🌽 #itscorn #Clarks

♬ It’s Corn – Tariq & The Gregory Brothers & Recess Therapy

This one for me takes the number one spot and made Clarks feel relatable and on trend!

This one is a no brainer from Nandos; 

@nandosuk

We really like corn 🌽 #corn #corntok #itscorn #cornsong

Needless to say there are endless posts with this trending sound, as well as some absolutely fantastic remixes.

If you enjoy a bit of TikTok, why not get in touch and see what we can do for you!
