TI's "Whatever You Like" Has Been Memed Into A Pro-Biden Song
"I want Joe Biden, need Joe Biden."
A 2008 banger is back in a big way on social media because, if you listen with a little imagination, you may hear a certain presidential candidate's name.
TI's "Whatever You Like" has been repurposed as a pump-up jam for Joe Biden supporters, and is now a meme for those hoping for a blue crush on the election map.
@toxxicwasteland BRUH I AM DEAD ๐๐๐๐#fyp #joebiden #ti #whateveryoulike #lmao
โฌ I want joe biden need joe biden - Nicole Martin ๐ฆ
When TI says, "I need your body, want your body," it does in fact kind of sound like "I need Joe Biden, need Joe Biden."
The current meme appears to have started with this tweet and blown up from there.
I want Joe Biden, need Joe Biden or whatever TI said ๐ฉ
Although she's not the first person to make the connection.
โWhatever You Likeโ by TI came on while I was at the gym today and I got so nostalgic for the good old days when I used to listen to that every morning during my drive to the campaign office in MA and yell โWant Joe Biden! Need Joe Biden!โ to get hyped for the day lol
And the joke has been around since at least 2012.
People are now ~manifesting~.
I want Joe Biden, need Joe Biden long as you got him you won't need nobody
What did TI know that we didn't?
TI really called this in 2008 he said I want Joe Biden Need Joe Biden https://t.co/y8J1RFEM1t
Frankly, it's hard to unhear at this point.
Iโm never gonna Unhear TI singing โI need joe Bidenโ ๐๐ iykyk
And at this delirious point in this very long election, it's a bit of a welcome moment of levity.
good god, TI
