If the Internet is useful for anything, it is in turning a joke into a cultural phenomenon.
No one knows this better than Megan Boni, whose “Man In Finance” TikTok video is the latest viral sensation to take the music world by storm, leading to a series of remixes and even a major record deal for the creator of content.
It all started innocuously enough, with Boni's rhythmic voice listing particularly aspirational attributes for a boyfriend: “I'm looking for a man in finance, trust fund, 6'5″, blue eyes.”
@girl_on_couch Can someone turn this into a real song please just for fun?
Boni's video took off, racking up more than 28 million views and capturing the attention of major music producers, who have since turned it into a remix frenzy. Thanks to TikTok, her career as a creator and comedian has skyrocketed, allowing her to leave her corporate job entirely.
“I won't make any more music unless it's a parody,” Boni said. Billboard. “But I'm definitely behind this song.”
