Terryfold originated as a novelty song created for Rick and Morty, performed by Justin Roiland with music by Chaos Chaos and released in 2017. Built from a joke about repeated nonsense phrases, it was featured around the show's third season and quickly escaped the series as a standalone oddity. Fans shared the chorus online, turned it into remixes and meme edits, and kept returning to its strange mix of smooth funk production and absurd vocals. Its cult status comes from sounding like a real hit while saying almost nothing.
