A new TikTok trend called the "Hood Edit" is going viral — and it's racking up millions of views fast. Social media users are going crazy over this unique and flashy video format, which showcases people portraying different characters or personalities, often styled in extravagant clothing, flashy jewelry, and luxurious backdrops that scream wealth and confidence.
What Is the "Hood" Edit Trend?
The trend involves people editing videos of themselves dressed in high-fashion outfits, wearing gold chains, showing off cash, and posing in locations that highlight a “rich lifestyle” vibe. It’s a mix of humor, style, and swagger — and TikTok can’t get enough of it.
MrBeast Breaks the Internet with His Version
While the trend had already started gaining traction with various creators, it absolutely exploded when MrBeast joined in.
After fans repeatedly requested his take on the trend — even spamming his old videos with comments — he finally responded with an epic "Hood MrBeast Edit" video. Titled "You can call me MrLean," the video begins with MrBeast standing in front of a mirror, saying:
“I am not doing the hood MrBeast trend. Stop asking me.”
Then, the screen transitions into a highly stylized clip of him fully embracing the trend —dripped out in classic “hood edit” fashion. The video went insanely viral.
Viral Stats That Speak for Themselves
Just 10 hours after being uploaded, the video had already hit nearly 10 million views. Two days later, the numbers skyrocketed:
160 million views
18 million likes
211,000 comments
1.6 million saves
2.4 million shares
And that’s just on MrBeast’s official TikTok. Unofficial reposts across other accounts are driving up the total reach even more.
One of the top fan comments that sparked the video’s creation was even featured in the final cut:
“PLEASE GIVE US A HOOD MRBEAST EDIT 😍”
Boosting More Than Just Views
The viral video also brought new attention to a specific song used in many of these edits:
