The clip comes from Dau cu Banii ca Mitraliera by Romanian manele singer Costel Biju, a track circulated online through reuploads and short excerpts. Its central image of throwing money like a machine gun made the hook easy to quote outside the full song, especially in Romanian speaking online communities. Shortened versions spread as a soundboard and meme sound for jokes about wealth, spending and showing off, where the familiar phrase signals the joke instantly even without the rest of the performance or lyrics.
