The phrase it's lit comes from slang for something exciting, fun or impressive, and the stretched spelling littt mirrors how people exaggerate it online for comic effect. As a soundboard clip, its appeal is speed and simplicity: the whole joke lands in less than a second, so it fits reaction videos, gaming highlights, TikTok-style edits and short memes without slowing the pace. Its continued use comes from that versatility, since almost any cool, funny or unexpected moment can be capped with a single burst of hype.
