The sound comes from a 2022 Recess Therapy street interview where a young boy named Tariq enthusiastically described corn on the cob, including the line about it having the juice. The Gregory Brothers, known as Schmoyoho, remixed the interview into the It's Corn song, which spread quickly across TikTok that summer. Short edits of the hook were reused far beyond corn, becoming a shorthand for loving something simple and wholesome. Its earnest tone keeps it popular for light, positive memes rather than mocking edits.
