Rickrolling began as an internet bait and switch built around Rick Astley's 1987 hit Never Gonna Give You Up, spreading widely in the late 2000s whenever a promising link led somewhere completely unrelated. This version borrows the long running hype around GTA 6, the follow up to Grand Theft Auto V from 2013. Fans searching for trailers, leaks and soundtrack news make easy targets, so the fake official label does the setup and the familiar pop hook does the punchline, keeping the prank alive in gaming edits.

A short Rick Roll music clip disguised as official GTA 6 music, used to prank Grand Theft Auto fans waiting for the game with a familiar meme bait and switch.
This six second clip pretends to be leaked or official music from GTA 6, then reveals the opening of the classic Rick Roll meme instead of any new game audio. The sudden switch from hype to a cheesy, instantly recognisable pop hook is the whole joke. Listeners expecting a trailer beat or reveal get caught by the familiar bait, which makes reactions range from laughter to mock outrage. It works because Grand Theft Auto fans are constantly hunting for news, so even a short fake cue feels believable for a split second before the prank lands.
