Astronaut in the Ocean was released in 2019 by Australian rapper Masked Wolf and went massively viral in 2021 through TikTok, sports edits and workout videos. The 'sus' version layers in slang from Among Us, where 'sus' became shorthand for suspicious behaviour during the game's peak in 2020. Mashing a serious, chart-topping rap hook with a playful accusation made the clip easy to reuse for reveals and call-outs, and it has stayed in meme edits long after both trends first peaked.
About this sound
The Astronaut in the Ocean 'sus' clip from Masked Wolf's hit song, used in Among Us memes, edits and reaction videos for a suspicious reveal.
This clip takes the instantly recognisable hook from Astronaut in the Ocean and twists it with the 'sus' joke from Among Us culture. The deep, laid-back vocal rolls over a dark, pulsing beat, but the suspicious framing turns the confident delivery into a punchline. It feels cool and accusatory at the same time, like the music is calmly calling someone out. That contrast is why it lands so well in short edits: the track sounds serious and catchy for a few seconds, then the context makes the whole moment feel shady, funny and a little too confident.
