“Thick of It” is a 2024 single by British creator and musician KSI, featuring American rapper Trippie Redd. The track drew intense online attention and quickly became material for memes, parody covers, remixes, and deliberately distorted edits across short-form video platforms. Earrape versions amplify the clipping until the song itself becomes the punchline, often playing on its instant recognizability and polarized reception. The format remains useful because viewers can identify the track before the sudden volume and distortion complete the joke.
About this sound
An earrape remix of KSI's 2024 song “Thick of It,” with heavy distortion and clipping for loud meme edits, chaotic reactions, and ironic punchlines.
This 16-second clip turns KSI’s “Thick of It” into an intentionally blown-out earrape edit. The song’s vocals, beat, and melody are pushed into harsh clipping, making every peak sound abrasive and dramatically louder than a normal music excerpt. Because the original track is recognizable, the extreme distortion creates an immediate bait-and-switch: a familiar song suddenly becomes chaotic noise. Editors use that contrast to overwhelm a calm scene, exaggerate an awkward reveal, or make an intentionally low-quality joke land with more force.
