About
The Perc 10 Dance, also known as the Perky Dance, refers to a dance trend on TikTok that uses the song "Perc & Sex" by YN Jay and has the primary lyrics, "How the fuck did you pull up to the motherfuckin' party and forget the percs? Perc 10 I Just Popped a Perc 10." The Michigan rap song inherently references the prescription drug Percocet, also known in memes as the Perc 30. The Perc 10 TikTok trend and dance became notable in early 2023 and involved the dancer lip-dubbing the lyrics and then moving their hips slowly in a circle while holding the front of their belt.
