No single video can claim this greeting, since 'What's up, YouTube' became the default opener for vloggers in the early 2010s and was repeated until it turned into a joke in itself. Imitations and parodies spread it across reaction channels and compilations, cementing it among classic meme intros that signal low-effort, high-energy content. Today creators use the line ironically as much as sincerely, and it circulates widely as a meme mp3 for editors who want an instantly recognisable hook without recording their own voice.
About this sound
The classic 'What's up YouTube' voice intro, the energetic vlogger greeting opening thousands of videos. Great for parody intros, gaming edits and meme videos.
This six-second voice clip captures the most recognisable greeting on the platform: an upbeat creator saying 'What's up, YouTube' like every vlog opening you've ever heard. The delivery is loud, friendly and slightly exaggerated, with the punchy rhythm that instantly signals a new video is starting. It works because viewers have heard some version of it a thousand times, so dropping it into an edit triggers instant recognition, a knowing smile and the feeling that something entertaining is about to begin.
