Rap duo Flyana Boss is going viral on TikTok. The Los Angeles-based group made up of two best friends, Folayan and Bobbi LaNea, are quickly becoming social media sensations for their “aplomb, authenticity, and tight friendship” that shines through their music, especially on their song “You Wish.” While many online have had a positive response to the song, the TikToks that Flyana has posted to their track is what’s gained them their newfound hype. Each video that they’ve posted is no more than 30 seconds long, and moves with them as they sing “You Wish” while running through places like Disneyland, LA Fitness, and the Santa Monice Pier—always gaining millions of views. While they have been coined as “marketing geniuses” for going viral by promoting their songs on TikTok, the girls admit that they are just having fun making music to inspire Black women like them, saying “A Black woman’s compliment is the most meaningful compliment.” YPulse’s Music report shows that 64% of Gen Z and Millennials say they’ve discovered new music through TikTok.
