Ytiet owns a verified YouTube channel with 328,000 followers.
Titled ‘Number song (From 41 to 49),’ the song contains a chorus where Ytiet sings simple English lyrics ’41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah’ with a quite addictive voice.
Meanwhile, Wiz Khalifa sings the two rap verses and a bridge section of the song.
Ytiet uploaded a video in which he sang the counting section for the first time on his blue-tick Instagram on July 17.
The Vietnamese YouTuber then released a remixed version of the song, which he claimed to be produced by infamous producer Retro Messiah, on his YouTube channel on August 2.
The song went viral globally on social media platforms such as Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok.

Canadian pop star Justin Bieber also covered Ytiet’s song and shared it in a recent Instagram story.
Before Bieber, other world famous singers including Snoop Dogg, Chris Brown, and Miley Cyrus also shared other counting songs sung by Ytiet.
It remains a mystery that why Ytiet’s number songs became a phenomenon on social media as some Vietnamese viewers commented that the lyrics of the songs were meaningless.
