This week, a joke video of Metro Boomin being "exposed" as a gymnast went viral on Twitter. A man who looks like the producer can be seen balancing and pulling major stunts with a friend, pulling some insane flips and flexing that core strength. Attempting to fool people that Young Metro is training for the Summer Olympics in 2021, it's clear that the beatmaker is more focused on creating future hits with his homie 21 Savage.
It only took a couple of days but Metro Boomin has officially responded to the viral video online, asking why the internet had to do him like this.
"Y’all n***as really playing wit me wit dat gymnastics video," wrote Metro on Twitter, adding two angry emojis and a couple of laughing ones.
Clearly, he has seen all the memes and he's enjoying them. However, he's not excited enough to pull off some crazy flips on camera though.
The producer followed up his reaction by sharing an old picture of himself and Travis Scott in the studio and, of course, the people needed to crack even more jokes.
"Metro is this pic from before or after you were a gymnast," asked a number of fans.
It looks like he may never be able to escape this.
Beyoncé’s "Homecoming" Inspired This Gymnast’s Viral Routine
Beyoncé's "Homecoming" concert film's live album inspired gymnast Nia Dennis' routine that has since gone viral on the Internet.
Beyoncé's impact is so far-reaching that gymnast Nia Dennis used her discography as the soundtrack to her viral routine that she says was inspired by the Coachella concert film, Homecoming. Beyoncé is sure to go down as one of the greatest performers of all time, and her iconic headlining set at Coachella in 2018 has been solidified as history-making by many fans and critics alike. The Queen Bey blessed us with Homecoming, a documentary and concert film that follows her journey leading up to Coachella—or, Beychella—the following year, along with an accompanying live album of the same name with all 40 songs she performed on stage. Some of the marching-band-backed versions of Bey's songs off HOMECOMING: THE LIVE ALBUM ended up providing a soundtrack to UCLA gymnast Nia Dennis' routine that has since gone viral on Twitter.
The incredibly talented athlete took the floor last Sunday to perform her routine as a mashup of some of Bey's biggest hits, including "Crazy In Love" and Destiny's Child's "Lose My Breath," from the live album blasted throughout the arena. The routine earned Nia an astounding score of 9.975 and a standing ovation from the whole audience and her teammates. The clip posted by UCLA Gymnastics on Twitter has since blown up, shared by tons of users who are amazed by Nia's performance, including Gabrielle Union.
