Overview

Perc 10 Dance, also known as the Perky Dance, is a TikTok trend set to YN Jay's Michigan rap song "Perc & Sex," the one with the hook "How the fuck did you pull up to the motherfuckin' party and forget the percs? Perc 10 I Just Popped a Perc 10"1. Participants grab the front of their belt or waistband with both hands and roll their hips in a slow, deliberate circle while lip-dubbing the lyric, usually filming the move in a static mirror or front-facing shot2.

Most videos start with the dancer scowling at the camera during the "forget the percs?" line, then transitioning into the hip roll on the "Perc 10" beat drop4. The song title references Percocet, the prescription opioid shortened in rap slang as a "perc," and the dance itself leans into a woozy, exaggerated sway that mimics the described high1. Group versions, hallway edits and front-stoop clips became common as the sound spread through late December 2022 and January 2023.

On December 17th, 2022, TikToker jackfunny313 posted the earliest known clip, panning the camera up to himself as he gripped his belt and swayed his hips to "Perc & Sex" by YN Jay, captioning the video "Let Me Do My Perky Dance"2. According to Know Your Meme's documentation, the post gathered roughly 687,100 plays and 98,400 likes in its first month on the platform1.

The song itself is a Michigan rap track by YN Jay that predates the dance; a YouTube upload of the audio is one of the common off-TikTok sources fans used to find the full version3. Jackfunny313 did not choreograph a sequence so much as a single move, the belt-grab hip circle, which made it trivial for other users to copy.

How It Spread

The copycats arrived almost immediately. On December 18th, 2022, one day after jackfunny313's upload, TikToker whoisdukecapone posted his own "Perky Dance" iteration, which pulled around 202,000 plays and 42,700 likes over the following month1. On January 10th, 2023, user paid.mxrc filmed a group version with friends joining in on the hip roll, and that clip reached roughly 843,500 plays and 189,200 likes within 17 days1.

The sound went mainstream a week later. On January 18th, 2023, TikToker robboomontaine_ uploaded a widely shared take in which he angrily lip-dubbed the "How the fuck did you pull up" opening before launching into the sway, and the video hit about 5.7 million plays and 1.2 million likes in nine days1. Around the same window, the audio began bleeding onto Twitter: on January 19th, 2023, user Jefebanks_ reposted an edit of SpongeBob and Gary performing the dance to the song, captioned "perc10 i jus popped a perc tennnnn," picking up thousands of views and likes in about a week1.
