Jemille Edwards (born June 3, 1999), known professionally as Skrilla, is an American rapper from the Kensington neighborhood of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania...His single "Doot Doot" became popular on TikTok in 2025 due to the “6-7” trend.
In case you want to know what the "6-7" trend is. From Yahoo:
TikTok and Instagram Reels quickly popularized the track, driven by its recurring lyric, “6-7.” Many believe the phrase references 67th Street in Chicago, potentially linking it to Skrilla’s background or affiliations. The song’s lyrics emphasize street life and conflicts, repeatedly mentioning “6-7” throughout the track.
The trend became widely associated with basketball player LaMelo Ball. One of the earliest known viral edits reportedly featured a sports commentator stating that Ball plays like a 6’1″ player despite being 6’7″. The term “6’7″” aligns with the song’s beat drop, making it a key moment in the meme format. This sparked a wave of videos where TikTokers edited footage of Ball, with the song playing in the background.
Beyond basketball, TikTok users applied the “6-7” trend to various scenarios, often using the song’s lyrics humorously. Some videos feature users referencing their 67% test scores, followed by the song playing in their heads. The meme format expanded into lip dubs, NBA-related edits, and other comedic content.
Now you're hip. Here is his viral song. 8.8M views in 5 months.
