Yep, there’s another insufferable sound all over the For You Page, and this time it’s the one that the nepo babies have hoovered up like a hungry Dyson: ‘Everybody told me that I sound like CG5, probably because I am CG5’. But where is the sound actually from and what the hell does it all mean? Here’s the origin of the ‘Everybody told me that I sound like CG5’ TikTok sound explained.

Sorry what is going on?

Okay, so the origin of this TikTok sound comes from a collab between YouTubers, musicians and TikTokers LeGrand and CG5. LeGrand posted a video on YouTube where he teased a collaboration between the two due to people comparing them a lot.

After this, CG5 posted a TikTok using the opening line of the teaser and that’s the sound that’s ended up going viral.
