The BBC reported Tuesday that the meme started with young people trying to get buses in Indonesia to honk their horns, which have customized jingles.
But then people started pestering musicians with the honking plea and the phrase took off, with many DJs playing along. The BBC reported nearly 800,000 tweets with the phrase and counting.
The musicians latching onto the trend include DJ Snake, Zedd and many others.
