The sound comes from Snapchat stories featuring Israeli singer Netta Barzilai and beauty creator James Charles improvising together over Rihanna's Rude Boy. Rather than a studio recording, it is a casual, off-the-cuff duet that fans clipped and shared online, especially within stan Twitter circles where its scatting and gibberish vocals became a running joke. Its appeal has lasted because it captures an unlikely celebrity pairing at its most unfiltered, and the short, chaotic exchange is easy to reuse in memes, edits and reaction videos.
Über diesen Sound
Netta Barzilai and James Charles improvise a duet cover of Rihanna's Rude Boy from Snapchat stories, full of scatting, gibberish and playful vocals.
The clip captures Netta Barzilai and James Charles trading improvised lines over Rihanna's Rude Boy, turning a casual Snapchat moment into a chaotic, joyful duet. Their voices overlap, slip into scatting and playful gibberish, and bounce between singing and laughing, so it never sounds polished or rehearsed. Instead it feels spontaneous, a little messy and very funny, like two friends showing off for the camera. That loose energy makes listeners smile instantly, and it works best when the silliness itself is the joke, rather than the song.
