Apache began as a 1973 instrumental by the Incredible Bongo Band, built around a famous bongo break that early hip hop DJs looped heavily. The Sugarhill Gang released their version in 1981, adding the Jump on it chant that this clip uses. The track became closely linked with breakdancing and party scenes, then found new life through television, samples and social media edits. Its short, shouted hook is easy to recognise and reuse, which is why it still appears whenever a video needs an instant dance cue.
