Saweetie and Boffum: A Viral Remix of Sass, Style, and Side-Eyes

stayc main image

When Saweetie hit the mic with her usual sparkle and sass, fans expected bops, but what they didn’t expect was boffum. Yes, boffum. The internet has been shaken, stirred, and straight-up meme-ified by this chaotic yet iconic moment, and honestly? It’s giving viral queen behavior.

What Even Is “Boffum”?
If you’ve been living under a WiFi-deprived rock, “boffum” is Saweetie’s now-infamous pronunciation of “both of them” in a freestyle that hit TikTok like a meteor of meme magic. In her signature Bay Area drawl, she casually drops, “I want boffum,” and suddenly, the entire internet collectively screamed, “SAME.”

Boffum isn’t just a word anymore, it’s a mood, a vibe, a lifestyle. You want pizza and tacos? Boffum. You like blondes and brunettes? Boffum. You’re crushing on two people at once? Boffum energy. Saweetie just gave us the vocabulary to live our most extra lives.

The Freestyle Heard ‘Round the World
During an off-the-cuff rap session, Saweetie delivered bars that were smooth, spicy, and sprinkled with Gen Z absurdism. But it was the boffum bar that took off like a jet powered by Fenty Gloss Bombs and Hot Cheeto dust. TikTokers ran with it, remixing, duetting, and even creating their own boffum challenges. Even your cousin’s cat has probably used it in a caption by now.

Why This Hit So Hard
Let’s be real, half of Saweetie’s charm is her effortless humor and meme-queen energy. But “boffum” tapped into something deeper. It’s unserious in the best way, and that’s exactly what the internet needed. In an age where everyone’s either too deep in their feelings or faking enlightenment with a crystal and a ring light, Saweetie came through with unfiltered chaos, and we loved her for it.

Merch, Memes, and Main Character Moments
Within days, fan art, t-shirts, and even playlists titled “boffum” flooded socials. You’re not a true internet citizen until you’ve said “boffum” out loud and immediately laughed at yourself for it. Brands haven’t jumped on it yet, but we’re one ironic tweet away from “Boffum Burgers” or a “Saweetie x Bojangles” collab. Manifesting.

Conclusion: Saweetie Did What Needed To Be Done
Saweetie once said, “Icy girls don’t cry”, and apparently, they also boffum. In one word, she reminded us that being ridiculous is a form of self-expression, that TikTok is the real A&R of 2025, and that sometimes the most iconic moments come from not taking yourself too seriously.
