6-7

6-7 (pronounced "six seven"; also written as 67 or 6 7) is an Internet meme, slang term, and gesture that became popular in 2025 on TikTok and Instagram Reels. It has no fixed meaning. The phrase originated from the drill rap song "Doot Doot (6 7)" by American rapper Skrilla, which became popular in video edits featuring professional basketball players, especially LaMelo Ball, who is listed as 6 ft 7 in (2.01 meters) in height. Overtime Elite player Taylen Kinney helped spread the phrase through his repeated use of it. The meme was further popularized in March 2025, when a boy named Maverick Trevillian became known as the "67 Kid" after a viral video showed him yelling the term at a basketball game while performing an excited hand gesture. The meme has been linked by multiple news outlets to the wider brain rot phenomenon—digital media deemed to be of poor quality. Some commentators also see it as evidence of Gen Alpha's growing presence in Internet culture.
