The shout is an exaggerated, stretched version of the casual greeting what's up, turned into a joke by holding the final sound far longer than a normal hello. It has circulated on meme soundboards and in short videos, streams and gaming clips, where a loud greeting works as both an entrance and a reaction. Its appeal is simple and repeatable: anyone can recognise the greeting, anyone can shout it back, and the longer it goes on, the funnier the interruption feels. That low-effort, high-energy quality has kept it in rotation long after many louder meme sounds have faded.

A long, drawn-out shouted greeting that stretches wazaa into a loud meme call, used by creators to greet friends, open videos and punctuate funny entrances.
This clip is one long, booming shout of wazaa that starts loud and keeps stretching, rising and wobbling as the voice holds the final vowel for several seconds. It sounds like a friend yelling a greeting across a room, only pushed to a ridiculous extreme, so the humour comes from its length and energy rather than any wording. At volume it grabs attention, breaks a moment and signals that something chaotic, friendly or absurd is about to happen. Because the word itself is recognisable, listeners get the joke before the shout ends, which makes it work as an opener, a reaction and a punchline in videos.
