You right
Why the f*** would Oanye tour when he has a son coming in December and Trab is already on tour with the Weeknd. And why would he tour at all right now? He has no f***ing new music to play it would make no sense to see him perform nowadays. Better be new music

Wait that’s actually you
KTT – launched around 2010 as a fan forum for Kanye West – and its successor KTT2 (est. 2020) have been hotbeds of internet meme culture in the hip-hop community.
Over the years, KTT users developed countless inside jokes, catchphrases, and viral moments. These memes often arose from humorous incidents on the forum – from fan meltdowns during album leaks to outrageous user posts – and many became integral to the community’s identity. Below is a chronological tour of the most significant KTT/KTT2 memes, their origins, and their cultural impact both within the forums and beyond.
Early KTT Era Memes (Early 2010s)
• “Nas Lost” – This phrase (originating from older hip-hop forums) became a mainstay on KTT to mock bad outcomes or poor decisions, riffing on the idea that legendary rapper Nas perpetually “lost” in comparisons (often referencing his feud with Jay-Z or career moves). KTT users would spam “Nas lost” in debates or joke threads as a shorthand punchline . The meme’s roots trace back to rap message boards where users created “Nas Lost” images of Jay-Z handing Nas an “L” (loss), and KTT carried the torch. Within KTT, it became an inside joke to signify someone taking an L or being outdone. Outside the forum, “Nas lost” permeated hip-hop discussion culture widely, to the point that even newcomers recognize it as a classic internet hip-hop meme.
• Djoats and Take Care (2011) – In a notorious KTT moment, a user named Djoats confessed to masturbating to Drake’s album Take Care – a TMI revelation that instantly turned into a forum meme . Fellow users roasted Djoats for years, referencing this incident whenever Drake’s music or extreme fandom came up. The phrase “Djoats did it first” would jokingly surface if someone was too enthusiastic about an album. Inside KTT, this became a cautionary tale (and running gag) about overzealous stanning. The story even resurfaced years later on Twitter, showing how a niche KTT meme could find a second life on broader social media . It underscores the forum’s early reputation for outrageously passionate fans.
• “Ain’t No Pizza, Get Out” (circa 2013) – This bizarre catchphrase entered KTT lore after an encounter with rapper Wale. As the story goes, a KTT user managed to attend Wale’s after-party (enticed by promises of pizza and drinks), only for Wale to quip, “Ain’t no pizza, get out,” when the fan showed up . The absurdity of being denied pizza by a rapper made the line instantly legendary. KTT members began dropping “ain’t no pizza, get out” in threads for laughs, even if few knew the exact details. The phrase became synonymous with getting kicked out or rejected in a humorous way. It’s fondly remembered as an early KTT catchphrase – one user even cited “Ain’t no pizza. Get out.” as their earliest KTT memory . Culturally within KTT, it united the community through a shared funny anecdote; outside, while not a mainstream meme, it exemplifies the kind of insider humor one could only catch if you were on the forum.
• Channel Orange Pimp Guide (2012) – Not all KTT memes were one-liners; some were elaborate forum posts that took on a life of their own. When Frank Ocean’s Channel Orange album dropped, a KTT user wrote a tongue-in-cheek “pimp guide” – a satirical tutorial on how to use the album’s songs to seduce women . It included outrageous advice like feigning sensitivity during Frank’s songs to impress your girl, with lines like: “awww Frank just want some bootyhole but he can’t, aww… be supportive of Frank and the LGBT movement…unless you got a Republican joint… then that’s your L to take, homeboy” . The Channel Orange Pimp Guide thread became infamous for its humor and creativity, showcasing the mischievous wit of KTT users. Within the forum, quotes from the guide were referenced for years (e.g., “that’s your L to take, homeboy” became a joking retort). The guide even earned mention outside KTT – cited as an example of the forum’s “disturbed beauty” and creativity by outsiders . It highlights how KTT could produce long-form memes (copypasta style stories) that spread within the community.
• “Doing ‘X’ about another man” – By the early 2010s, KTT had popularized a form of calling out obsessive fandom with phrases like “you doing something about another man”. For example, if a user was overly defensive or emotional about a male celebrity, someone might respond: “You really crying about another man?” or “You writing essays about another man’s life”. This meme-format humorously pointed out when stan behavior went too far . The origin is rooted in stan culture: it’s a tongue-in-cheek reminder not to take idol worship too seriously. Within KTT, it became a common clapback whenever fan wars got heated (effectively shaming fans for being “down bad” over an artist). The phrase also spread to other hip-hop circles and social media, because the sentiment – laughing at someone for obsessing over a celebrity – resonated broadly. It remains a lasting piece of internet slang, but KTT was one community that embraced it wholeheartedly as part of its vernacular.
Mid-2010s Memes and Moments (2013–2016)
• “Crine u brad as pitt” – A perfect example of KTT’s intentionally misspelled slang, this phrase is a playful way of saying “crying, you mad as s”* (with a pun comparing “mad” to Brad Pitt). It originated from a user typo or joke – writing “crine” instead of “crying” and “brad as pitt” instead of “mad as s”*. The hilarious phrasing stuck and became an inside joke . KTT members would say “I’m crine” (with an N) to indicate something was so funny it made them cry laughing. “Brad as Pitt” became a joking compliment or sarcastic remark. This meme showcases KTT’s tendency to adopt unique spellings and phrases that outsiders might find baffling. It didn’t spread much beyond the forum, but within KTT it added to the quirky, humorous language shared by users.
• Wiz Khalifa’s “Weed Walk” Rant (2014) – KTT wasn’t just about Kanye – all of hip-hop was fair game for memes. In one legendary thread, a user spent 171 posts ranting about how Wiz Khalifa’s signature stage “weed walk” was corny . The epic rant was so over-the-top that it itself became a meme. In fact, it “spawned its own trap parody” – other users turned the rant’s words into a comedic rap song . This incident is remembered on KTT as a highlight of fan passion tipping into absurdity. Within the forum, quotes from the rant (and the parody song) were referenced whenever Wiz Khalifa or excessive critique came up. The broader internet likely never heard the trap parody, but the tale of a user obsessively dissing a “weed walk” underscored KTT’s culture of going all-in on a joke. It also showed the community’s creativity in flipping a serious post into musical humor. This collaborative memeing (taking a user’s serious content and remixing it) became a part of KTT’s culture of one-upmanship in comedy.
• “Save M e, Mike Dean” (The Life of Pablo era, 2016) – During the chaotic rollout of Kanye’s album The Life of Pablo, KTT fans were frantic for the ever-delayed release. Kanye’s engineer Mike Dean became a semi-mythical savior figure on the forum. Users coined pleas like “Save us, Mike Dean” or “save me Mike Dean” whenever the album updates grew dire – half-jokingly treating him as the one who could rescue the album and the sanity of the fanbase. This meme encapsulates the fervor and frustration of KTT during album release nights. It stayed mostly within KTT (and the Twitter circles of Kanye fans), but it highlights the community’s tendency to create memes out of real-time events (in this case, a collective prayer to a mixing engineer!). The phrase still evokes memories of sleepless nights in KTT’s album threads and is emblematic of how forum members coped with delays through humor.
• Forum Fan-Fiction & Copypasta (mid-2010s) – Another mid-decade meme trend on KTT was the rise of copypasta fan-fiction posts. Users would write absurd, dramatized stories about artists in the studio. A famous example involved Drake and Future recording “Diamonds Dancing”, written in a cinematic narrative style (complete with Drake stepping from the shadows and demanding, “Play that outro back”) . Similarly, a parody story described J. Cole in the studio drinking almond milk while repeating “count it up” like a man possessed – a comedic riff on Cole’s song “ATM” . These long-form memes were posted for laughs and often copied across threads. Phrases like “Yet again, it was another late, sleepless night in Fayetteville…” became instant tells that a humorous copypasta was incoming . Within KTT, these stories (often mocking the artist’s persona or fans’ romanticized vision of them) brought the community together in laughter. They sometimes escaped the forum – excerpts have been shared on Reddit and beyond as examples of fan creativity and humor . They demonstrate how KTT’s meme culture was not limited to one-liners; it also embraced satirical storytelling as a form of meme.
Late KTT and Transition to KTT2 (2016–2019)
• “Rotate the Satellites” (2016) – One of the most notorious KTT moments came from an unexpected feud with pharmaceutical exec Martin Shkreli. KTT users, upset with Shkreli’s antics (he was teasing possession of rare music like unreleased tracks), engaged with him online. In a surreal escalation, Shkreli joined a discussion and threatened to shut down KTT, allegedly by telling someone on the phone to “rotate the satellites” – as if calling in an Illuminati favor . The phrase was so over-the-top and ominous that KTT exploded with reactions. “ROTATE THE SATELLITES” became an instant meme, representing any grandiose, empty threat. That night went down in forum history as “one of the greatest nights in KTT history”, even drawing spectators from rival forums who watched in awe . Within KTT, users would quote “rotate the satellites” for years as a joke whenever someone made an outlandish threat or plan. The incident showed KTT’s reach – it had Boxden (another hip-hop forum) “watching us in awe” during the drama . In broader internet culture, this remained an inside joke, but those in the know still cite it as an example of KTT’s legendary escapades. Even on KTT2 years later, users would say “the satellites have never been more rotated” to humorously acknowledge intense situations .
• Ed Sheeran Birthday Meme (mid-2010s) – This meme started as a bit of KTT trolling etiquette. Sometime around 2015, a user unironically made a thread wishing pop star Ed Sheeran a happy birthday – only to be ridiculed by others who found it out-of-place on a hip-hop forum. The mockery turned into an ongoing joke: every so often someone would post “happy birthday Ed Sheeran” (often not on Ed’s actual birthday) just to get a rise out of people . It became such a running gag that users years later asked who started the “Ed Sheeran HBD” meme . Within the community, this evolved into a litmus test of sorts – new users might be baffled by random Ed Sheeran birthday wishes in the middle of rap discussions. Eventually it was just an absurd non sequitur meme that added to KTT’s quirky culture. It didn’t spread outside KTT, but it shows how even the most random post (a sincere birthday wish) can be twisted by forum humor into a long-running inside joke.
• Spiderporn.gif (unknown) –
One meme bridged the gap from KTT to KTT2 with infamy: spiderporn.gif. This was a shock GIF (reportedly involving a spider in a highly inappropriate scenario) that a certain user started spamming. The user posted it in the Jesus Is King album thread in 2019 and got banned for it . Rather than fade away, the incident became legendary. The user’s dramatic efforts to get unbanned – pleading in his profile bio, and ultimately succeeding just as the forum transitioned to KTT2 – turned into a “comeback story” that was recounted with pride . On KTT2, “spiderporn” became a boogeyman and prank-tool: e.g. veteran users jokingly warning “If you’re new to KTT, beware the spider GIF,” or threatening to DM it to troublemakers . Within the community, spiderporn.gif is spoken of in hushed tones – simultaneously a point of humor and horror. It never spread outside (for good reason), but internally it’s one of those notorious memes that exemplifies the wild west nature of the forum. Even years later, some complained that “the spiderporn gotta go” because the joke had worn thin – indicating just how long-lived this shock meme was in KTT memory.
.
KTT2 Era Memes and Moments (2020–Present)
• The Noah Sammak Saga (2020) – Shortly after KTT2 launched, the community proved it hadn’t lost its penchant for epic memes. In March 2020, a user started an innocuous thread: “Who is Noah Sammak? The supposed writer of After Hours”, noting this mysterious person had unearned songwriting credits on songs by The Weeknd and Justin Bieber . What followed was hobbyist detective work turned meme spectacle. When an apparent legal threat was sent to KTT2 to cease discussing Sammak, the forum’s owner cheekily pinned the thread sitewide, rallying everyone to investigate . Users uncovered that “Noah Sammak” was likely a fraud – and they had a field day. They found his photo and flooded the thread with jokes about his appearance , likening him to memes (one user quipped it was a “Real Eyes Realize Real Lies type selfie” ). They even photoshopped him in humiliating scenarios (the HobbyDrama write-up notes the forum “exposed a scammer (by photoshopping him sucking toes)” in the title ). The thread blew up into 224 pages of comedy and sleuthing, ultimately prompting the fake songwriter to erase his online presence . This saga birthed the catchphrase “Sammak the b****? I hardly Noah” (a punny title used in recounting the drama) and reaffirmed KTT2’s ability to mobilize a meme-worthy event. Within KTT2, it became perhaps the defining thread of the early era – users who participated wear it like a badge of honor. The broader internet got a peek via write-ups on Reddit, but largely this was a contained storm. It shows that KTT’s meme culture survived into KTT2, now with an even sharper edge (cyber sleuthing and coordinated trolling).
• Legacy Meme References – Much of KTT2’s meme culture is a continuation or homage to KTT classics. The community often resurrects old memes in new contexts, keeping the spirit alive. For instance, phrases like “Ain’t no pizza, get out” and “rotate the satellites” are still dropped in discussions for a laugh or nostalgia . New members quickly learn these weird slogans or ask about them, becoming indoctrinated into the inside jokes. KTT2 also carried on the tradition of using “crine” for “crying” and other KTT slang. The infamous spiderporn.gif even found new purpose: whenever KTT2 users wanted to raid or prank another forum (like the brief AWGE forum for A$AP Rocky), they threatened to spam spiderporn until the site yielded . This demonstrates a shift in that KTT2 was self-aware of its meme legacy – sometimes deploying it deliberately. Additionally, the forum still engages in meme-able antics around music releases. During Kanye’s DONDA rollout in 2021, for example, KTT2 threads were full of humorous despair and “Mike Dean save us” posts, just like old times (showing that new memes often rhyme with the old ones).
• New Inside Jokes – KTT2 has developed some fresh memes, though often building on the old culture. For example, users have a tradition of greeting new users or even artists who join with light trolling – one KTT2 thread humorously warned producer Kenny Beats about the forum, saying “expect spiderporn in your DMs soon” as a rite of passage . There are also community nicknames like “Mouse Fam” which emerged on KTT2 – a jovial reference to a group of users with Mickey Mouse avatars, used as an in-joke (e.g. “Mouse fam >>>” meaning that group’s supremacy in some humorous context ). While smaller in scale, these show KTT2 generating its own memes. Another subtle shift is the tone – by 2020s, the forum’s stance on Kanye himself became heavily ironic or critical (after years of wild antics by Ye). It wasn’t uncommon for KTT2 to turn Kanye’s controversial statements into memes, or to flood a thread with Drake sales stats to annoy Kanye loyalists (the so-called “Papi’s Angels” were Drake stans on KTT2 who trolled Kanye discussions with Drake memes ). This reflects a cultural trend: KTT2’s humor became more meta, often riffing on the very idea of a Kanye fan forum gone rogue.
Cultural Impact and Evolution of KTT Memes
The memes of KTT/KTT2 have been crucial in bonding the community. Shared jokes – whether a one-line zinger like “Nas lost” or a 20-paragraph copypasta – created a sense of identity unique to the forums. Longtime members can cite these memes and instantly relate to each other’s memories of hype and hilarity. For example, a phrase as silly as “rotate the satellites” evokes a whole night of collective excitement when the forum banded together against an outside villain . These inside jokes also served as ice-breakers and equalizers – a new user who “gets” the Ain’t no pizza reference immediately feels part of the club.
Moreover, KTT memes occasionally rippled out to the broader internet. The forum itself was influential – Brockhampton’s formation on KTT is a famous anecdote , and artists like Travis Scott and Wale interacted with or mentioned the community, lending it an aura of relevance. While a joke like “Happy birthday Ed Sheeran” didn’t trend on Twitter, the collective behavior of KTT (for instance, swarming an odd topic with jokes or coordinating investigative memes like the Noah Sammak case) exemplified a proto-Reddit style of internet culture – but within a more tight-knit setting. Other hip-hop sites and subreddits have looked to KTT for early takes, leaks, or just entertainment. For example, during the Shkreli incident, users on Hip-Hop forum Boxden lurked to watch KTT’s meme frenzy play out . KTT’s knack for producing memes thus enhanced its reputation as the place where “internet hip-hop history” might happen live.
From KTT to KTT2: Shifts in Meme Trends
The transition from the original KTT to KTT2 in 2020 also marked some shifts in meme trends:
• Nostalgia and Curation: KTT2 members immediately started threads to catalog “OG KTT memes” , indicating a more self-aware approach to their culture. The community became curators of their own lore, ensuring classic memes were not forgotten in the move. This differs from early KTT, where memes emerged organically without foresight of legacy.
• Edginess and Moderation: Early KTT could be wild (trolling Wale, outrageous rants, etc.), and while KTT2 preserved that spirit (see: toe-sucking photoshop saga), there’s also a sense of tighter moderation/community standards. For instance, some offensive memes or user behavior (that might have slid in 2010) became less tolerated. A user in 2022 even noted fatigue with certain jokes (like spiderporn) getting stale – suggesting the community grew a bit more critical of its own meme reuse.
• Broader Focus: As Kanye’s public image changed, KTT2’s meme focus diversified. The forum’s name aside, users often centered humor on other artists and general pop culture more than just Kanye. Memes about Drake, Playboi Carti, or even non-music topics became common, reflecting a broader internet culture convergence. Yet, whenever Kanye did something notable, KTT/KTT2 was still the place that generated a flurry of memes (for example, the *“Kanye running for President in 2020” period saw KTT2 flooded with parody campaign posters and jokes).
• Community Resilience: Perhaps the biggest constant is how resilient the meme culture proved. Even after migrating sites, the same core humor and camaraderie persisted. In fact, old memes took on an almost legendary status on KTT2 (the way elders tell tales): e.g. users would ask “what’s the story behind ‘Nas lost’ or ‘pizza get out’?” and veterans would happily recount these tales, keeping the culture alive for the next generation.
Conclusion
From “Nas lost” to “rotate the satellites,” the memes of KTT and KTT2 chronicle a vibrant subculture within hip-hop fandom. These forums developed an identity through humor – an amalgam of rap knowledge, internet savviness, and youthful irreverence. Each meme, whether a simple catchphrase or an epic 200-page saga, served as a building block of a community that felt like an extended family with its own language . Inside jokes created solidarity – in tough times (endless album delays) they provided comic relief, and in great times (surprise music drops, legendary threads) they amplified the excitement.
The legacy of KTT’s memes remains impactful. They demonstrate how an online forum can shape culture: KTT gave us sneak peeks into fan psychology (turning angst into art, like the Channel Orange guide), showcased the power of collective action (memeing a scammer out of existence), and kept the joy in music discussion through constant creativity. Many of the top KTT memes have transcended their original context – you might hear “Nas lost” or “doing X about another man” in other comment sections without realizing they were polished in the fires of KTT.
In the end, the story of KTT and KTT2’s top memes is also the story of the forums themselves: passionate, chaotic, clever, and unforgettably fun. As one user fondly reminisced while listing classics like “Ain’t no pizza” and “Rotate the satellites,” these memes “highlight the unique humor and camaraderie that define the KTT and KTT2 forums”, fostering a true sense of belonging among members . Despite changes in platform and era, that spirit endures – and the memes continue to evolve, ensuring that the legend of KTT lives on one laugh at a time.

Mid-2010s Memes and Moments (2013–2016)
• “Crine u brad as pitt” – A perfect example of KTT’s intentionally misspelled slang, this phrase is a playful way of saying “crying, you mad as s”* (with a pun comparing “mad” to Brad Pitt). It originated from a user typo or joke – writing “crine” instead of “crying” and “brad as pitt” instead of “mad as s”*. The hilarious phrasing stuck and became an inside joke .
