So, in fact, persons are posting their respective poop songs, typically going viral if they’ve a very distinctive identify.

You may marvel why these songs exist. And it is a affordable query as a result of who would take the effort and time to make so many poop songs. The reply to that query is Matt Farley, an web character of non-public fascination for me.

I first found Farley years in the past in a way you may anticipate. I used to be visiting pals in New Orleans and located it hilarious to play songs about poop over the audio system of their dwelling — I admit my humorousness is juvenile nevertheless it acquired fun.

Farley completely floods Spotify and different streaming companies with songs that’ll flip up in very particular searches. Issues like cities, celeb names, and, sure, bathroom humor. Actually, one among his hottest initiatives is “The Rest room Bowl Cleaners” with such hits as “Butt Cheeks Butt Cheeks Butt Cheeks!” and “The Poop Music.” For what it is price, I discover “Butt Cheeks Butt Cheeks Butt Cheeks!” genuinely hilarious — in a surreal, unusual means. A few of these tracks have racked up hundreds of thousands of performs, however Farley’s taking part in a quantity recreation.

Farley has been featured in plenty of main media, together with the Tonight Present and a profile within the New York Occasions. That article within the Occasions famous Farley has put out some 24,000 songs in complete. Something you possibly can assume to look — birthdays, promposals, and any identify pooping — he is there.

“Folks wish to criticize the entire streaming factor, however there’s actually loads of professionals to it, Farley advised the Occasions whereas estimating he made about $200,000 in 2023 off streaming royalties.

In order that’s the place the pattern is coming from — one man dumping songs into the sewers of the web. And if poop songs maintain being a pattern on TikTok he may churn out extra steaming scorching songs this yr.
