About

The Brother Noah Song refers to a hip-hop remix of the song "Noah" by The Jubalaires, which went viral in late 2025, when it was used as the main song for the Khaby Lame Mechanism memes. The repeating lyric is officially "Brother Noah," but meme creators on TikTok joked about misheard lyrics like "Kevin Durant," "Herman the worm," "Huzz in Dubai" and "Heaven durag," among others. The beat was originally used in the 2020 rap song "Pedal Up" by Dasgasdom3, which was produced by 708drumma. The Brother Noah meme also inspired meme rapper Lil Godd to make a song called "Brother Noah (Kevin Durant)."
