The exact origin of this clip is unclear, which is typical of short meme sounds passed around soundboards and editing packs. It leans on the long-running bruh meme, a deadpan reaction word that spread through Vine and short-form video in the mid-2010s, paired here with a stock-style telephone ring. Creators adopted it as a reusable gag for fake incoming calls, and it circulates mainly as a downloadable meme sound effect shared between editors rather than as a quote from any film or show.
About this sound
A deadpan bruh voice says you have got a phone call over a telephone ring. A meme sound effect used in prank videos, reaction edits and notification skits.
The clip opens with a flat, deadpan male voice drawling the word bruh before announcing that you have got a phone call, layered over a shrill old-fashioned telephone ring. The delivery is deliberately bored and unimpressed, which makes the urgent ringing feel ridiculous by contrast. It lasts barely a second and a half, so it lands as a quick punchline rather than a full joke. Viewers hear it as a mock-serious alert, the comedy coming from the clash between the lazy voice and the dramatic ring, and it usually triggers an instant laugh or an eye roll.
